Writing Cards

.Stars.

On day 12, Arisa was home alone, except for Rento who was busied himself with blowing stuff up on his Playstation.

Kuukai was at a soccer game, the other 2 Souma siblings were on an outing with friends for the summer and Kuukai's parents were out.

She sat with a fresh sheet of paper laid out in front of her and a pen in hand.

Yes, she has a lot of free time.

Kuukai, happy birthday…

I still have 12 days,

But I have something to say…

The final sentence she written subconsciously. Then when she realized what she had just written, she aggressively scratched it out.

This was going to be a loooong day.

-

Once she had filled out the entire sheet, it was about 3:00 in the afternoon. She occupied herself with tossing an eraser up and down in the air.

At first, she wondered if she should check up on Rento; surely somebody who mindlessly blows stuff up for 6 hours straight couldn't be okay.

Then she shrugged, I'm sure he's fine.

Just then, her cell phone which was under a pile of papers began vibrating, escaping the sheets and nearly falling off the desk.

Arisa dove for it, nearly loosing an eye to the courner of the wooden desk. She landed with a thump and answered, breathless.

"Moshi moshi; this is Arisa speaking."

A clear and obviously bored voice rang in her ear, "Mou Arisa-chan, boredom's back."

It was Tsukiga and as usual, she was bored.

"So what are you doing?" Tsukiga asked casually.

Arisa sighed, "Trying to write a card for Kuukai…"

"Isn't his birthday in like, 2 weeks?"

The brunette pouted and replied crossly, "Don't judge me."

Being as bored as she was, she asked, "So what do you have so far?"

A fierce blush spread across Arisa's face as she attempted in stammering her response into the phone.

"Eh…you know…just…stuff." She could almost see the knowing smirk that Tsukiga probably had across her face at that very moment.

"Oh you mean stuff like—"

"NO!" Arisa practically screamed into the phone.

Tsukiga chuckled lightly, "Well I need to go do some stuff now, matte ne."

All she heard was a dial tone, and then she shut her phone as well, muttering about how you shouldn't hang up on people even though you're clearly going to go stalk a certain someone.

A few minutes of staring at the paper later, she decided to call Shinyu. Though the high schooler was probably at her summer job, it was always fun to bug her.

"Moshi moshi, this is Shinyu speaking..."

Arisa smiled; Shinyu really sounded like she needed a break for once.

"It's Arisa. How's work?" she laughed.

Shinyu groaned quietly, "Hell…"

She let loose a sigh of sympathy, making sure the older girl can hear her. "Well I'm in the middle of trying to write Kuukai a card for his birthday."

Arisa could clearly visualize Shinyu perking up in interest.

"Oh really now?" she paused, "But isn't his birthday in like…2 weeks?" The red-head asked.

Rolling her eyes, she repeated the same response she had just given moments ago, "Don't judge me."

"So what kind of stuff did you write?"

Before Arisa could respond, said amber haired figure came crashing into the room grinning like a madman. His green eyes shone of pure excitement as he called her name happily.

"Arisa-chan; guess what?" Kuukai asked lifting her up bridal style from the rolling chair she was sitting on.

"W-what do you want?! I'm on the phone with Shinyu; can't you wait?" She demanded, shocked and blushing like a fiend.

A pleased hum fluttered through his lips as he spun her around the room. Soon the area was filled with sounds of Kuukai's mindless teasing and ramblings about his soccer game, but was drowned out by cries of Arisa, demanding her release.

If normal people were to hear this over the phone, they'd think they were just a bunch of kids, goofing around, but this was Shinyu, and she was really bored.

A satisfied smirk graced her glossed lips as she snapped her phone shut, "Eager today, aren't you Kuukai-kun?"
