I left early this morning because of a thought that's been in my head for the past few days now.

I hope Akito won't wake up to be worried. He usually goes into a panic while I go anywhere without informing him. I left a note.

Speaking of Akito... Lately, things have been kind of.. unusual.

"Toya?" An smiles as she opens the door to see me, and I nod.

"What's a pretty princess like you doing here alone?" She asks, leaning on the doorframe.

"Leave him alone! Come in!" Azusawa lightly pushes her away, leading me to sit down on their couch.

I can already hear Azusawa pouring a cup of coffee for me as well. This is too much...

Was it rude for me to come at eight in the morning? It seems like An just woke up.

The two of us have been meeting up a lot lately, anyway. We go out together about every week...

"That's so mean!" She laughs, sitting next to me and resting her legs on mine.

"Really, what's up? It's really early. I'm not complaining, though. More pictures for your fan page." She scoffs, taking a picture of me. Wait, what- never mind.

"Well, I.. I was having trouble with something." I mumble, awkwardly fidgeting around in my seat. 

"Or, two things-"

"Has your father contacted your mother again? I swear, I've flown to America to yell at that deadbeat once, and I'll do it again!" An shouts, pouting. That's not.. what I came here for. The last time we spoke was for Tobia's wedding. Almost five years ago! 

Plus, Azusawa did more yelling than she did.

That makes me worried again about what my mother deals with back at home. I should visit her again...

"No, um.. it's something else. With Akito."

Kohane gets interested and peaks her head up above the counter to look at us.

"Don't worry, if it's about your 'private' life, I'm all ears." She grabs her phone and records, and I frown.

"Sorry."

-*-*-

"You want to propose to Akito?!" They both say in surprise, and An kicks her feet around.

"You've come to the right person! Is your birthday the special occasion?" An says, jumping up from her seat.

"N-No, I-"

Not tomorrow, I don't even have the ring..!

"There's no way he can top that kind of gift on your birthday, so let's just jump him!" An clenches her fist, and I shake my head rapidly. We're not hurting Akito...

Stop interrupting me!!

"I'm so happy for you..! Honestly, the day you told us you two moved in together, I had already planned a few ideas." She begins to rant, looking through a cabinet while Azusawa quietly apologizes. What's wrong?

An comes back a few moments later with a huge book and basically shakes the ground as she drops it on the table. Oh my gosh...

"An, that's enough." Azusawa says, placing her hands on An's shoulders, having her sit down on a chair. That shut her up...

"Aoyagi-kun, you had something else to say, right?" Azusawa asks.

"Yes.. Our relationship lately.. feels weird. I-I don't know if it's just me, but..." I stop myself, staring at the ground. We just recently moved in together.
