I sigh, pushing open the door of the café and heading back outside. I should be getting home about now. I walked in there at three, and it's about four now.
I'm currently sharing a house with a girl from school, Toko Fukawa, and her girlfriend. Thinking about that reminds me about earlier's rejection, as Toko's girlfriend is Makoto's sister.
I walk down the smoothly paved sidewalk, pulling my coat closer around me to fight the cold winter air. The café isn't far from our apartment building, so I don't have to walk far. I think back on the strange encounter with Mukuro. She was much more open than she was back in high school, I suppose she's changed in that aspect.
But other than that and the hair, of course, she doesn't seem all that different. I remember thinking about how she would stare at me during lunchtime, but if I'm being honest, sometimes I stared back. I smile, remembering that her number is saved to my phone. I trudge up the concrete steps to my door, my heels making a harsh clicking sound against them.
I unlock the door and yell up the stairs to Toko and Komaru, "I'm home!" I hear a thumping sound from upstairs, probably one of them falling off the bed in surprise. "Don't come in our room!" Komaru yells, "We're busy!" I chuckle to myself, locking the door and hanging up my coat. I set my keys down on the table with a clank.
Luckily, there’s a guest room and a bathroom in between my room and theirs, so I don't have to hear too much of their alone time. I kick off my heels by the door and practically collapse on the couch in the living room. Another sigh escapes my mouth. I should really get the rejection off my mind.
Maybe texting Mukuro would make me feel a bit better. I hope she's not busy. I dig my phone out of my bag and open up my messages. I smile at the 'hey' she sent me earlier.
Mukuro ♥
4:14 pm
Sayaka: hey wyd ( *¯ ³¯*)♡
I couldn't stop a smile from crossing my face when she replied almost immediately.
Mukuro: nothing much
Mukuro: my sister tried to text me on someone else's phone. no doubt she stole it
Mukuro: i blocked the number though, so don't worry
Sayaka: couldn't u report her to the police for that?
Sayaka: u have a restraining order, right
Mukuro: yeah probably
Mukuro: i dont want her to get in too much trouble though, just to leave me alone
Sayaka: i get that
Sayaka: she sounds obsessive
Mukuro: yea
Mukuro: she tried to say that I shouldn't ignore her bcause she's 'better than me'
Sayaka: that's concerning
Sayaka: i don't wanna pry too much though
Mukuro: no it's fine
Mukuro: i'm kinda over it at this point
Sayaka: ok. let's talk abt something else tho (ू•ᴗ•ू❁)
