No. Nope. Nada. Non.

Chapter ! #$%: Counterpart

Alternate Title: This was supposed to be cute. I don't know if I succeeded or not.


Kanako was roused from her slumber by a warm hand on her shoulder. Her cerulean eyes opened a crack to see a person clothed in black towering over her.

'Ah, Mariya must have worn his dominatrix costume today,' Kanako thought before rolling over and turning her back to her roommate. She knew that it was futile to resist, and she would be waking up whether she liked it or not, but old habit had made her say, "I'm going back to sleep, Mariya."

However, instead of the command to get up or the slap on the back the raven-haired girl was expecting, instead, her father's voice ended up being the thing to rouse her from her slumber.

"Kanako, my dear, it's time to get up," Her father said as he shook her shoulder lightly.

"Oh, sorry dad, I mistook you for someone else," Kanako responded as she sat up.

"Listen Kanako," The former teacher sat down across from Kanako on her bed, looking into her eyes as he spoke. "I know that you prefer women to men. And I understand that some people of the faith will hate you and vilify you for it. But as your father, I will support you as long as I draw breath. If Mariya Shidou is one of the people who brings you happiness, I will stand behind you with all my heart and soul."

Kanako was shocked. Part of it was because she had just woken up, only to have her father give her a speech on love and acceptance. The other part was too moved and touched by the former teacher's words to say a word.

(A smaller fraction of Kanako's mind was noting the irony in that her father was accepting her homosexual love for her former roommate when said former roommate was male, but was drowned out by the lethargic and the touched parts of Kanako's mind)

Slowly, Kanako smiled at the former teacher, thanking him for his acceptance and love.

Whatever words her father was going to say in response was cut off by the chiming of the doorbell. Mr. Miyamae gave his daughter a wise and loving smile as he went to answer the door, leaving her alone i her bedroom.

She was alone for the next fifteen point eight seconds before the door as slammed open, and Kanako was embraced by a flying blonde.

For the second time in the twelve minutes Kanako had been awake, Kanako thanked her father with all her heart as she wrapped her arms around her former roommate.


Short drabble. Nothing much to say really.

I hope you have a nice day/night/whatever, and see you next update! :D
