I Want To Be Closer To You But I Can't

Kawakaze saw Wichita hanging out with Princeton and this made her lower her raccoon ears. Seeing that it was too late to be with Wichita.

Replaying that memory in her head of when she left Wichita. When she met up with her for coffee to finally break it off with her. Because she was pressured especially by her factions side about ending/breaking up her relationship with her.

And now... all Kawakaze could feel was anger, regret, and guilt. Hating herself for listening to what others think and not her own happiness. Wanting to tell her that she still loved her. But.. she was out of time.

Still... Wichita looked so happy with Princeton.. who she heard was there for her when she left her.

Kawakaze wished that she could ask Wichita to come back to her but.. that's totally against her factions beliefs of lowering yourself and it was all about saving face/reputation on their side.

Even if she did ask Wichita she was sure she wouldn't go back to her. Not after the way she treated her, she never treated her that good as Princeton.

" Kawakaze is there something wrong?" Mutsu asked, seeing her friend/body guard look kinda down these past few days. Well Kawakaze always sulked but more so than usual.

" no." Kawakaze said, lying.

Mutsu tilted her head, thinking there must be something wrong and she's hiding it from her. She looked past Kawakaze to see what she was looking at, and spotted Princeton and Wichita.

Peter: " Heinrich where are you going?" seeing her friend quickly dash out of the office when it was clock out time. Meaning the end of work.

" oh! to see Tirpitz!" Heinrich said, happily.

" Tirpitz? why?" Peter questioned, not understanding the reason why she's seeing her so often. She usually sends Heinrich to see Tirpitz whenever they do the turn in reports after they over checked everything. But that's once every week. But Heinrich had been going to see her almost everyday.

" oh we're gonna have dinner together" Heinrich said, making Peter say " o-oh.." as Heinrich than said " but your going to be busy tonight ja?" remembering Peter told her a few days ago that she'll be quiet busy these few days and will be consumed in meetings and paperwork. Where usually when this happens Heinrich is left sitting at home waiting for her to return. Since most of these meetings involve some highly classified materials/files being discussed and Heinrich doesn't have clearance to listen/know about it.

" j-ja..." Peter said, actually now kinda disappointed (something she never feels) that she's doing work instead of being with Heinrich.

Heinrich: " well see you later tonight ja?" quickly leaving before Peter could say " ja.."

While Peter was in a meeting, filing out some paper work and having some discussions along side Friedrich, August Von Parseval, Gneisenau, Koln, and Admiral Hipper. Who were all here in this meeting, discussing the reports and filing out paperwork.

" Peter, you look so sad today. Is something wrong?" Parseval spoke, noticing Peter's mood to be very down. Usually she always looked so happy and accomplished filling out paperwork and having discussions among them.

" it's nothing." Peter said, thinking it's not important.

" come now, speak." Friedrich urged.

" if it's unnecessary I don't want to hear it" Hipper said, a bit rudely. Thinking it's unimportant how Peter feels right now because the priority is getting this paperwork done tonight.
