Chapter 3

I started to walk out after Gai when I was stopped by one of the waiters.

"Sir, please pay for you and your friend before you leave!" He told me. "Here's the check sir."

Gai owes me... He owes me a lot. Has he really drank that much? From what it said he had started drinking at 12:00pm with his lunch (which I also have to pay for) and its about 11:00pm now. In that time he has drank many cups of sake so, I would say that he has had way too much to drink today.

I unwillingly gave up all the money I had on me, which was just barely enough to pay for the large check, and I left. I took one step into the cold night and saw Gai. He was throwing up in a garbage can across the street. I guess the alcohol wanted out.

"I see you made friends with the local garbage cans already." I said as I leaned against a building and waited for him to stop.

"Ugh, I don't feel good." He said as he sat down next to the can.

"I couldn't tell." I said sarcastically.

It was a nice night tonight. All the stars were out, so it was a perfect night for stargazing. Too bad Gai was too out of himself to enjoy it with me.

"Are you able to move now?" I asked with concern.

"Ya, I think so." He said in a sad tone. "We still going to your place?"

"As long as you don't throw up on any of my furniture," I said reaching out my hand to help him up. "Of course."

"Ok I won't! If I do, I'll do a million push ups!" He said as he got up with my help.

My apartment wasn't to far from here so It wouldn't be that long of a walk. For the most part Gai held up. He had to grab on to my shoulder a few times to regain balance but it didn't really slow us down. We stayed completely silent the whole walk. Mostly because we both knew what we wanted to talk about but neither of us knew where to start. I would have to talk to him sooner or later and I was not looking forward to it.

Once we got to my apartment Gai made himself right at home. He took off his shoes and plopped down on my couch.

"Would you like something to drink?" I asked him.

He nodded and I walked over to my kitchen. My apartment was regular sized for a working ninja. My kitchen was just through a door from the living room. My whole place was spotless, expect for dust. This place never felt like home to me, probably because I was so rarely here.

I got Gai a glass of water and brought it out for him. He thanked me and drank it quickly.

Now is the time... I have to ask now... Lets get this over with..

"Gai, why would you promise something like that to Lee?" I said straight to the point.
