My favorite nurse /shinomitsu/

Chapter 5

Hiiii, enjoy.

Mitsuri POV:

I woke up suddenly as I heard a knock on the door. I dragged myself out of bed, making sure to put on my robe before leaving my room. I yawned as I opened the door, I was greeted by a shorter male. "Oh, hi Obanai!" I said unexpectedly. "Um, hi Kanroji, I came to deliver this to you" he said having trouble keeping eye contact. "Aww! Thank you so much Obanai! You shouldn't have!" I said getting a handful of goods. "Okay, I gotta go, bye." He said as if he was in a rush. "Oh, um bye!" I said awkwardly holding all my gifts.

I put all the stuff on the counter and smiled softly. "Only if...". I said feeling guilt enter every inch in my body. "I'm so sorry Obanai."

3rd person POV:

Mitsuri silently headed to her room and closed the door behind her. The truth was, she was secretly inlove with Shinobu. The same lady that thought she had no chance with Mitsuri. Mitsuri had been inlove with her best friend since they started med school together. When she met Obanai she caught feelings but she didn't love him like she loved her. She decided to give it a chance, knowing he would pop the question at some point. She would've never thought that she would end up being asked the first day that she moved in with her love.

Mitsuri laid on her bed, pulling the sheets over her face like a scared child. She was scared, scared of what she had done. Regret swallowed her full, as she felt the air in her chest escape her body. Could she really just break up with him after one day? She knew how much he loved her, yet she still did what she did. "I just want to move on" a pit growing larger in her throat, as tears begged to come out. She allowed them to just fall, as she cried herself to sleep.

Shinobu POV:

I woke up later than usual knowing I had a day off. I looked at my phone to see if I had any missed calls or messages.
*Tamayo has sent a message*
"Shit." I said to myself as I worried I might've missed some sort of emergency. I opened it quickly. It read, "I am free today, I'll pick you up at 11am, so we can have brunch. If you are up to it of course." I had a hard time believing what I just read. I know Kanae was always guessing at it, but personally I couldn't see it. I thought about it for a second, I wasn't gonna do anything so I responded. "Of course, see you later Tamayo ❤️", my heart fluttered. I threw my phone across my bed and began covering my face with a pillow.

It's true my heart belonged to only one but I couldn't help but like others. Of course I'd only ever love her, but why not give this a try? I grabbed my phone after a while to check the time. It read "9:50" less than an hour to get ready. I sighed and quickly got out of bed.

~~ 10:45am

Still Shinobus POV:

I managed to get ready quickly and finally left my room. I am so nervous, not just about the date but also the fact that Mitsuri will know. I don't know. I feel like she isn't super happy about the whole Obanai thing. Maybe I'm just imagining things. I made sure I had all my things on me, so I was ready and not scrambling when she came to pick me up. Mitsuri was on the couch with a cup of tea, sipping it silently while watching TV. She turned to look at me. "Woah," she said as her jaw dropped. I just smiled shyly. "Where are you going?" "I'm just going on a date." I replied casually, blush painting my face lightly. "WHAT?!?" Mitsuri yelps. "..." I don't know what to say but just stare. "OMG!Who are you going on a date with?" she asks excitement in her voice. "I'm going with Tamayo." I reply, "I always knew she had something for you!" Mitsuri said happily twirling up to me.

She holds my hands in her own and smiles, "Make sure you have fun!" And as if it were on cue the door bell rings. I stiffen up like a board, and Mitsuri can tell. "Oh, come on! Open up the door!" "Yes, okay, I'll see you later, okay?" I say, "Yes I'll see you later, now come on hurry up!" Mitsuri says. I take a deep breath and walk up to the door hurriedly, not wanting her to wait.

Tamayo POV:
I could hear indistinct chatter on the other side of the door. I waited until I heard foot steps coming closer to the door. The door opened and I saw Shinobu, she looked beautiful per usual. "Hello, Shinobu, you look lovely." "Hello, Tamayo, thank you so much. You look pretty too." She was obviously blushing and avoiding eye contact slightly. I smiled at her and stepped out of the way so that she could leave the room and we could be on our way to the café.

3rd Person POV:

They made it out of the apartment complex and into Tamayos' car. They had some small talk on the way to the café, but even then the silence was comfortable. Once they arrived they sat down outside of the café, in a little table with an umbrella covering them from the sun.
