Chapter 5
Yami awoke in darkness and sat up. She looked around, she was in her apartment, in her bedroom. How did I get here? she wondered. She stood up and looked around her black room, there wasn't much in here, but an art easil, a desk, a TV with a VCR/DVD player, a play station 2, a night stand, and a book shelf. She stepped out of her room and into the living room, which was pretty large, and connected to the dining room. She sat on the couch and turned on the TV. She looked at the date on the TV guide channel. It's the 4th?! I've been asleep for 2 damn days?! she thought jumping up. She looked at the time as well, it was 9:24 p.m. There was a knock on the door, she got up and walked down the hallway and looked through the peephole in the door. Yuske was looking back at her, she sighed and opened the door.
"How did you get my address?" Yami asked glaring up at him. (Remember, she's just a bit shorter than Hiei.) "Botan gave it to us when we had to drop you off because you were hurt and unconscious…" Yuske said rubbing the back of his head uneasily, hoping she wouldn't decide to kick his ass. "What do you want with me?" she snapped, glaring up at him again. "Well…I came to check up on you, ya know, you WERE unconscious and hurt badly…still are probably…aaaand I'm locked out of my house, my mom is put drinking and probably won't be home for a LONG while, and Keiko is out, sooo…can I crash here for the night?" Yuske asked. Yami sighed dropping her head. "Yeah, Yeah whatever." She said walking the other way. "Close the door behind you." She said. Yuske blinked awkwardly. Woah, she's actually letting me stay… I thought she was gonna kick my ass. he thought standing in the doorway. "Did I stutter? Come in, and shut the door behind you." Yami said peeking her head around the corner. He nodded and walked in, closing and locking the door behind him.
He looked at the wall as he walked down the hall way, on it were paintings, and sketches and drawings of people, places, and things. (Ha, the noun wall!) He stopped at the end of the hall and looked at a picture of himself and Keiko, it was just a sketch but it was very good. Keiko and him were holding hands in front of the school with Mr. Akashi yelling at the both of them from the step of the school. "Uhhh I take it you like drawing?" He said attempting at making conversation, and blushing from the picture. "Heh, I see you found that picture quickly…you and Keiko are girlfriend and boyfriend though, right?" Yami asked peeking around the edge of the wall from the kitchen again. "Uhhh well…I like her, I just don't think she likes me though, she likes to yell at me a lot…" Yuske said. "She only yells because she cares." Yami said. "Yeah yeah…" Yuske said. Damn…she seems…normal…now…I guess she's not all that bad. Yuske thought. "No, I'm not." Yami said aloud. "Wha?!" Yuske exclaimed. "No, I'm not all that bad." Yami said again. "How did you-did you-you read my mind?!" Yuske exclaimed. She nodded smiling a bit. "Sorry, had to see what was going on in that mind of yours." Yami said. She walked into the kitchen.
"Want anything, I know it's after nine, but you hungry?" Yami asked. She looked at the fridge and picked a note off the fridge. It was hard to read but she could make it out, she read it.
Dear Mr. & Mrs. Kurogasa,
Yami got into a really bad fight, so we took her home and fixed her up, we hope you don't mind, anyway, she'll be fine, a week's worth of bed rest and she'll be good as new.
Sincerely,
Yami's friends.
"Who wrote this?" Yami asked holding the note up for Yuske to see. "Botan, I think, her, or Kurama." Yuske said. "And uhhh to tell you the truth I am a little hungry…" he continued to answer her question. She nodded, and continued. "And the note they wrote was pointless, there are no Mr. and Mrs. Kurogasa." Yami said crumbling the note up and throwing it in the garbage can. "So you live here alone?" Yuske asked sitting at the counter. She nodded as she reached into the cabinet and pulled out 2 packages of ramen. She some water in a pot and sat on the counter while she waited for it to boil. "My mom is a stinkin drunkard…" Yuske said as Yami sighed swinging her legs. "At least you have parents…" she sighed sadly. She jumped off the counter and threw two packages of Ramen in the pot as it started to boil. "What happened to your family?" he asked. "My father was killed brutally in Makai when he went to return from here, so he could witness the birth of me, while my Mother, after his death went back to Makai when I was seven, and left me with a foster family, She erased all memories of her in my mind…" Yami said sadly. "Then how do you know about her?" Yuske asked putting his head on his arms on the counter. "I've had dreams of her face, memories coming back to me, she was an assassin for hire in Makai before she met my father…and I'm still trying to find her to this day, I fled from my foster home when I started to remember, and here I am today." She said. "One more question…" Yuske said casusiouly. "Yeah?" Yami asked. "Why are you all of the sudden being so nice to me?" he asked.
"Because…I suppose I needed a friend to talk to, and you can consider yourself my friend now…" she said. She took the pot off the stove and poured the ramen into two bowls. (Gaaa now I'm hungry…::looks at stomach that's growling loudly:: Oh come on…I have to wait till 3'oclock to eat! It's thanksgiving today…) Yami sat down at the counter on a barstool next to him and gave him a bowl and chopsticks. They both ate in silence.
