I YAWNED as i lazily made my way where the meeting for the examination results were supposed to be held.
my fingers brushed off my lab coat's long sleeves to look at the time on my watch on my left wrist - still around ten minutes early before the appointed time for the call time to arrive for the meeting.
to be completely honest, i hadn't gone to sleep immediately when me and hoshina parted our ways for our rooms.
the urge to stay up and watch dramas was too hard for me to hold back.. i ended up caving in and binged around four episodes..
i ended up sleeping far later, i think it was around four a.m. when finally sleep had taken control of me.. i kept saying this was the last episode after the last episode before i was actually taken to sleep by force by my own eyes.
it was rather unprofessional of me, i accept the truth.
an arm had wrapped around my shoulder. "good morning, miyuki." i look to my side to see the red haired woman smiling at me. wow. what bright light.
"..what a bright energy.. good morning nakanoshima-chi." i replied with a soft smile as we ended up walking together side by side.
she chuckles to which i tilt my head at - visibly confused. nakanoshima brushes it off as a laugh came from her this time. "tough night huh?"
right.. my eyebags.
i groaned. "are my eyebags really that visble...?" a bit hurt but it was the consequences of my own doing for staying up so late knowing i barely get any rest in this line of work.
"ah, no not really." she denies, and i don't believe her. "it's just that your face and whole mood screams tiredness." the woman explains as she points to me.
"well, that makes sense. i did sleep at four in the morning." i say.
"damn. was the work too hard?" she asks with a curious face.
oh.
"..um.." ah. i feellll a bit guilty, my dear friend here is mistaking my tiredness from work - not knowing i actually just lost sleep because i was watching a drama....
"uh- yeah, definitely. yeah, you're right. the work was harder than i thought, it took me a long time to get it done." i lied as i smiled nervously - wishing she'd buy my lie.
nakanoshima gives me a pitiful look, then pats my back reassuringly. "you did your best, i'm sure captain ashiro will be proud of your work."
"is it related to the events that happened yesterday?" she asks again. "it is.. it was really confusing for me to work with." i laugh nervously.
then, as we turn to a corner, me and nakanoshima encounter a certain dark violet haired man on the way to the meeting room.
"ha-ha! sosh─hoshina-chi. good morning!" i greet him with a nod.
