« Hum... »

The sunshine rays passing through my windows come tickle my eyelids, putting an end to my sweet sleep.

Aaaarh... no... let me sleep a bit more... five more minutes...

I yawn a bit, my head still hidden under the soft blanket... which, strangely enough, helps to wake up.

Hum... oh, wait a sec... if the sun is already up in the sky, that means...

I slowly sit up in the bed and stretch myself all while yawning one more time then I look beside me : I'm all alone in this big bed.

Oh... so it must be this late... alright then... looks like I really need to get up now... come on Kokichi...

I stretch again to force my body to wake up and leave the bedroom to go into the room next to it, the living room.

« Good morning, miss. How did you sleep ? »

« Yaaaaawn... good morning, Tojo-san... perfect, thank you... what time is it ? »

« It is currently 8 :26am, miss. »

« Ah ! » I jumscared, remembering something important I might have missed and I don't to want miss out « Has Rantaro already left ?! »

« No, the young master is currently in the bathroom. He will leave soon though. »

« Oh okay... phew... » I sigh of relief...

« Would you like to give it yourself, miss ? I can do it on your behalf, if you want me to. »

« No, I'll do it, thank you Tojo-san. »

« Morning, sweetie ! »

« Ah !! » I got startled once again upon feeling a pair of arms getting around my waist. « Oh Rantaro... you scared me... don't jump on me right when I wake up, please ! »

« Ha ha ha ! Sorry but that was too tempting ! I was really thinking I was going to leave without a goodbye kiss ! »

As on cue, he kissed me, putting a soft kiss within my purple hairs.

« Did you sleep well ? You went to bed so late yesterday, you must be have been exhausted ! »

« A... a bit... let's just say I was working on something... »

« Another drawing ? »

« No huh... » I look at Tojo-san and waves at her as a signal. She understands what I mean and goes grab a little box in a nice tissue we put into the fridge yesterday evening and hands to me. I get away from Rantaro to face him :

« I... I was working on this ! I-I am not the best c-cook but T-Tojo-san helped me and y-you work s-so hard so... »

Oh shit... the stuttering is back... it sounds like we're back at high school, two years prior...

« You cooked me a bento ? »

I timidly nod, feeling my heartbeat getting stronger and my face getting redder.

« Oh, thanks, Kokichi ! That's so nice of you ! I'll happily eat at lunch time and will tell you what I think about it ! »

He then turns around to face Tojo-san : « thank you for helping her out, Tojo-san. »

« It's my pleasure fulfilling my duty as a maid and assisting you, young master. And miss as well, of course. She gave it her all so I think you will find it tasty. »
