Dear diary
I'm surprised that everyone seems more than a little eager to get more alcohol for the halloween party. My nerves were shot when booze was mentioned and even Kano was eager to get drunk too, I can't help that Kano is using it to hide his sadness. He can't hide how he feels from me, Seto or Ayano very well since we've known each other for years. Hibiya doesn't seem to care that much, I can't hardly blame him when there's drinks that legally speaking, he isn't allowed yet. Momo seemed eager; despite she isn't allowed it either.
Ayano plans to get the drinks and Momo volunteered herself and Hibiya to get the snacks for the party, she's been feeling bad for how we've been unable to do anything to help find Hiyori and she thought that she could try and take his mind off of it. She also thought she'd take a list of foods that Hibiya likes so she could get some for his birthday, a special birthday at that. Seto and Marie decided to get some decorations, both for the halloween party and the birthday party. Hibiya will be turning 13 soon and I hope it's a day for him to enjoy.
I hope no one goes overboard, either with the drinking of what they do once they get drunk. I know I'll be ok; I don't plan to drink enough to get drunk and I plan to keep an eye on everyone just in case they all decide to go too far. Someone needs to remain sober enough so that everyone is kept safe, I should be that person.
When everyone returned home, they told me that the amount of alcohol they got will surprise me, Ayano needed help so Konoha went to help carry her carry them all home. My nerves feel as though it was about to cave in on themselves and I'm getting more and more worried about the party, what if something happens and someone ends up getting hurt? I know I shouldn't worry about this so much but I've been in this position for a long time and I'm finding it hard to relax as much as I should.
