An hour had passed since I came back to the chalet. The news became tedious after the Ghoul reports, so I went back to exploring the rest of the house, even though I had already seen everything. A map of the chalet hung beside the sliding door to the backyard, and I couldn't help but chuckle at the outline of the second floor.

   Yep. Looks like a penis.

   There was nothing left to do and I wished that civilization wasn't so far from where the chalets were; then again, it would defeat the purpose of staying in such a secluded area.

   Who would want to stay in a fortress like this anyway?

   ...Other than Kaneki, obviously. He would've had the time of his life up here. He was a walking contradiction.

  Squatting near the koi pond, I watched the fish swim slowly in every direction. Once they took notice of me, a lot of them gathered to where I observed them, hungrily opening up their mouths.

    "And if I weren't here, who'd feed you?" I stood up and crossed the mini bridge over the pond, which led to the other half of the backyard, where the onsen was built. A little on top of the pond stood what appeared to be a birdhouse, but opening it, I found packets and cans of fish food. I strolled back to where I originally sat and started to feed them.

    "You just come to me for food."

   When the fish dispersed, I sighed and stood up, feeling my pockets for my phone before realizing that I left it beside Miri's on the coffee table. The sun was on the verge of setting, bringing back the negative emotions I'd been yo-yo-ing in the silence.

    "I'm going away now," I muttered, watching the fish swim by without a care in the world. "No food until I get back."

   I washed my hands and changed into pajamas, reaching for my phone and seeing a few messages from classmates and other festival committee members.

    "It's the weekend and they're still worrying about uni..."

   The smell of something sweet hit me straight in the gut; looking over my shoulder, I spotted the light blue paper bag that I rested on the kitchen counter, abruptly recalling that I wasn't alone in the cabin.

   Maybe I should wake her up...

   But instead, I found myself facing a blank message, addressed to my best friend.
