Ch. 39

(P.O.V. Neko)

The midterms went by with much stress, at least on Nemu's part. Nemu got ranked 47th from the bottom. I was one point away from 3rd place. Other wise life moved on. And proceeded to run straight into a land-mine. For Nemu.


(P.O.V. Nemu)

As I attempted to avoid the inevitable call from from parents concerning my recent test grades, my phone rang with a more friendly number.

"Hey Nemu!" said an ecstatic Ren.

"Hello Ren. What are you calling about?"

"I was wondering if you want to have a sleepover since we have two days off since midterms are over"

"Ok, first, please slow down and avoid alteration, and second, sure, I don't have any … plans." As Ren chatted away happily about what she wanted to do at the sleepover and that Naomi was also coming over, I realised that my unofficial plans for the break were now ruined.

Dammit. I was hoping to try for some "fun" with Neko.

I suddenly became very appreciative of the fact that my phone was currently set to sound only. Ren would have definitely questioned my blushing face. After saying goodbye to Ren, but first being made to promise to bring some movies, I went to go tell Neko of my plans and then to pack my overnight bag.


"Hey Neko." I called as I knocked on the door frame to his room.

"What's up?" he replied.

"I'm going over to Ren's place for the next two nights, I just wanted to let you know."

"Ok, see you."

With that, he went back to work.

He just brushed it off. God dammit Neko.

With that, I headed to my room to pack.

As Nemu got ready to leave, I felt a little disappointment. I wasn't sure why, as I had been planning to work on my pet project anyway. I decided to move on and got back to work and analyzing the logs from my last attempt to make the system work.


(P.O.V. Nemu)

Apon reaching for the handle of Ren's apartment door, I suddenly felt a chill down my spine. Upon reflecting later on, I realised I should have listened that warning. But I ignored it, and continued into the Shiba Household.

"Hey Nemu!" shouted an ecstatic Ren.


A/N: Ok, so uploading will be very sporadic. I started my first AP course this year and am currently scrambling to readjust. Toss in that fact that I got a D on my first LA essay of the year and you can see why uploads will be few and far between. That said, I do have a plan laid out, so if I can find time to sit down and write, then you get to have a chapter. Also, I am toying with the idea of longer chapters with even longer upload dates, but for now I am sticking with the 300-500 word long chapters. I hope you guys like this, and I will try to keep it updated.
