Takes place between Season 3 & Season 4…

Sissy's POV:

The coffee here was way too strong…but it was nice to be able to do my home work in this tiny café. Even if the coffee was really strong, the pastries were typically as hard as a rock, & the sandwiches were really dry, it did have one thing that worked out well…

Ulrick Stern worked here.

I had overheard him talking to Od in class a few weeks ago. His father was really mad about his grades slipping, not to mention the fact that Ulrick had decided to drop off of the soccer team. He was making Ulrick get a job to try to teach him some responsibly…

So, every day after school, I'd sit here & do my home work while trying to drink their coffee…Normally, the boarding students weren't allowed off the grounds unless they had a job, but there were perks to being the principal's daughter…

Who knows? Maybe Ulrick will finally notice me…

Ulrick set the check down in front of me. There was a message written on the back.

"You were right about Yumi." it said. "She's just a string been who isn't worth my time. I want to take the prettiest girl in Kadic to the dance. Will you be my date?"

I looked up to see him watching me, waiting to see what my answer would be. I pulled out a pen and wrote "YES!" in all caps. I waved him over to get the check. He smiled when he saw my answer.

"You know, there's something I've wanted to tell you for a long time." Ulrick said as he walked me to the café entrance. "I…love you, Sissy…"

"Oh, Ulrick!" I said. "I love you too!"

"Sissy…"

"Sissy!"

"Huh?" I looked up to see Ulrick standing by my table. I guess I must a have zoned out for a second. "Sorry. What were you saying?"

"Did you want anther coffee?"

"Yeh, that'd be great." I said. "Thanks." Ulrick took my empty cup & walked off. I guess he hadn't come over here to express his love for me, after all…

But a girl can dream…

Well, it a little more then halfway through the month…& I'm only on Chapter 3…

Since there are 12 songs on the CD, I guess I have to pick up the pace a little bit if I want to finish in time…
