Late night talks
'Brush, brush, brush, brushing everywhere. God I have weird thoughts!' I thought as I was brushing my teeth. *spit*
'Why is Shizuku being so nice to me? And why does it still look like I've seen her before? Even after us settling this at dinner,' I thought as I walked to the guest room. 'she does look like her sister, but-oh well, I should get some sleep.'
I walked into the room and saw a bed roll, a pillow, and a cup of water. After getting into the bed roll, I soon heard footsteps coming towards the room I was in. I focused my eyes to the door and soon enough Shizuku came in.
"Shiz-" I said in my normal talking voice.
"Shh," She said with a finger to her lips, "my parents are sleeping."
I propped myself up on my elbows. "What are you doing?" I asked quietly.
"You said you lived in Tokyo, right?" She asked walking slowly towards me.
"Ya, why?" I asked laying myself against the wall.
"And you know my sisters go to a school in Tokyo." She said getting closer.
"Ya. An art school right?"
"Ya. I have something to tell you." She said sitting next to me. "I don't like being apart from my sisters."
"And with them living in Tokyo that must be hard on you, huh?"
I saw tears starting to form in her eyes. "Ya, it is." She sounded like she was about to cry to.
I started tossing around ideas in my head until I came up with one. "Hey, my apartment allows two people to live there, but there's only one…bed." I said starting excited, but ending disappointed.
She looked at me with a confused look. "So, what's wrong with that?" She asked very quietly.
I put one arm around her and said, "Nothing, but your parents might think different… I don't know, but I'll bring it up during breakfast. Okay?"
"Okay." She got up and walked away saying, "Goodnight."
"Goodnight." I said getting back in the bed roll.
Later that night I woke up thirsty, so I got up and went to get the cup of water that I had seen earlier. When I walked over to the table that it was on, it wasn't there.
'Guess I have to go down and get some water.' I thought. So I went down stairs falling over my bag. When I got to the kitchen the moon shown just so that I could see the clock.
2:42 a.m.
I'd been asleep for four and a half hours. Upon filling a cup of water, I heard Shizukus parents' door open.
"What are you doing up so late?" Mrs. Sakurai asked me.
"Um, I woke up because I was thirsty and my cup of water wasn't in the guest room."
She stepped into the light and she looked a little mad. "Oh, is that all?"
"Ya-yes, I mean. Why?"
"Oh, no reason really, but now that you mention it, I have a question, if you don't mind."
"Okay, what is it?"
"How 'pure' do you think you are?"
The question was so odd I had to make sure I heard it right. "I'm sorry, what was that?"
"You heard me, how 'pure' do you think you are?"
"Um… pretty pure, I guess."
"Okay, when do you plan on having sex?"
*choughs* "W-what?"
"Sex. At what age do you plan on having sex?"
"Um, not until I'm married, at least."
"Oh, really?" She started walking around me, at least two arm lengths away. "Because I overheard you talking to my little Shizuku last night."
'Busted!' I thought.
"And it sounded like you really wanted to be in bed with her."
"N-no, I-I-I um…"
"Do you not have something to say?"
I took a little to calm down and have a little bit of water then said, "I do. Shizuku wants to go to Tokyo so she can be with her sisters, but since you don't have enough money she hasn't asked. Please, for the daughter you love so much, give her this chance to have what she wants and let her go to Tokyo."
"Hm…we'll talk about this at breakfast."
"I plan on it."
"Oh well, goodnight."
"Goodnight." I said and went back up stairs.
Going back to sleep I thought, 'What did I just get myself into?'
