Onihunter Yuna

58 Confessions

When Yuna reached the pension after a long walk, Ayumi stood outside the door smoking a cigarette. Once the woman noticed the girl, she hastily quit and flung the cigarette stub into a can, which stood next to the door.

"Hey.", greeted the blue-haired

"Hey." Ayumi checked Yuna out. "It seems you really are feeling better. Did you take another shot?" Her tone was icy.

"I'm not a junkie."

"Would one say."

The girl frowned. "Why are you suddenly so hostile towards me? I thought we were sisters?"

The eyes of the redhead narrowed down to slits. "I have my reasons."

"Then tell me."

"Definitely not."

The older one opened the door and went inside. Behind her, she slammed the door shut. What had Yuna done to her? Apart from her unfriendly nature. Sometimes she really was a little bitch. She followed the woman into the building. Upstairs, she found Wataru, who was cleaning the floor in front of her bedroom. When he saw the girl, his face brightened. Ayumi's room door was closed.

"You're back.", noticed the young man relieved.

"Yes."

"Did everything go well?"

"I guess so."

He nodded smiling. "Good. I'm washing your futon. The floor in your room is already cleaned up."

Yuna blushed. "T-that was not necessary. I would have done it myself."

Amused, he laughed. "In your condition? Come on, go and lie down in the living room. Get some rest."

"Okay."

The blue-haired gave him a warm smile. She walked past him into the living room, where she turned on the TV and lay down on the sofa. Within a short time she dozed off.

When she woke up the next time, Wataru sat beside her and watched her.

"What are you doing?", she asked suspiciously, while her cheeks started to get warmer.

"I'm watching over you."

The huntress sat up. "I guess ... it's time that we talk."

"Yes. We also should talk with Ayumi.", he replied, while he ran a hand through his hair.

"Whats up with her? She acts totally strange."

"She thinks you're taking drugs. Her sister was a drug addict. I think it awakens old memories with her."

"Was?"

An uneasy smile appeared on his face. "She is no longer alive."

"Damn. Is everyone in this house somehow broken?"

Wataru laughed. "No. Nakamura-san is pretty normal. More or less. He lives here only on weekdays because of his work. On weekends he goes home to his family on the countryside."

"Great. Let's go see Ayumi."

Together they went to the closed door of the redhead. Wataru knocked.
