Day and Night

Chapter 13:Roomates

I flopped onto my bed, eyeing her as she sat on her bed with a laptop on her lap.I groaned,remembering I had class in a few hours.Kim didn't even flinch away from her laptop to look at me, but still talked to me nonetheless.

"What's wrong Kc...",She asked, her eyes still focused on her laptop.

"Kawaii~Chans had a long day...."

She giggled, looking up finally from her laptop."I can see that."

"Anyway,how have you been Kim~Chan.",I asked,Sitting on my bed.

"Busy...",She groaned, facing back towards her laptop."I have a trip in a few weeks, but I also have to get this report done..."

"When is it due?",I questioned.

"One week..."

"That seems like enough-"

"It's not.I have to pack for my trip, write this report, and study!"

"Oh.Then why go on these trips anyway if it's that stressful for you?",I asked,awaiting her response she sighed.

"It's apart of my scholarship.And it's not like I dislike it or anything, but its just...a lot."

"Kim~Chan calm down and breath...",I said walking over to her, sitting on her bed."Don't let Kawaii~Chan bother you."

"That's kinda hard when your sitting right beside me"

"Well Kawaii~Chan will move, but Kim~Chan needs a friend."

"That's sweet Kawaii~Chan but-",I put my finger on her mouth to quiet her up, and smiled so she could feel better.

"Kawaii~Chan knows what she is doing Kim~Chan",She nodded,facing towards her computer."How long will this trip last anyway?"

"Oh?",She smirked.",Is there a boy that I should know about?"

My eyes widened, and my face reddened"It's not like that Kim~Chan, I was just asking.",Kim chuckled and then broke into a laughing fit.Her laughter was contagious so I laughed with.

Days turned into weeks, and with each hour that passed it felt like years.I rolled out of my bed at the sound of my alarm, looking over the the bed of the absent Kim.On days like these I would go to class,and do home work.The classes would be draining so I would sleep in some of them or just not go to the class at all.But today,today was different.The manager wanted us to work in a environment with other employees.This was our final task.

I groaned,walking into the bathroom to brush my teeth and got dressed.When I was done I took off to the cafe.

I looked at my phone once more before going into the cafe, to make sure I was on time.I smiled at the time I accomplished and pushed the door opened.There was the manager, a line of employees, and Zane that stood and watched as I enter Ted the cafe.I politely waved,smiling as I made my way over to them.

The employees were lined up like kindergarteners, from biggest to smallest. They smiled and greeted me and Zane, as we shook hands with them.

The manager called for us, calling us trained as he showed us our assignments.They included: Bathroom,Kitchen, Waiting.

Not even an hour later, Zane was having problems working with the employees.I looked at the commotion from the kitchen where I was taking orders.Zane was yelling about something and the employees scolded him for it.Saying things like,"Your not doing it right!!".They continued to yell till their voices gave way, and then they turned to me.I smiled innocently, but was really nervous about what they were going to say to me.But they just smiled, and waved.Telling me about how good of a job I was doing.

I smiled at the compliments, and thanked them for it.They turned away, continuing doing  by the jobs they were previously doing.

I turned my head towards Zane, listening in to his swearing and complaints. He turned a sharp gaze towards me.I shrieked quietly, and turned back to what I was doing.

The shift ended, and fortunately we both ended up with the job. My face brightened and my teeth clenched together in a bright smile.I hurried over to Zane as he was walking off.

"Zane~Kun....Why are you so quiet.We got the job, you should be elated!",I said,Putting my arms in the air like a rainbow.He grimaced, keeping his head faced forward.I felt a tad bit annoyed, so I asked him another series of questions ."Why do you wear a mask?Do you get sick easily?Is it hot under there?",He sighed and once again continued walking."Why are you so angry all the time?!Being angry is not going to help you make friends!"

He snapped his head over to me, with a murderous expression on his face."Will.You.Shut.Up!Stop following me!",He yelled.I turned to look at the ground, the guilt consuming me.

"Kawaii~Chan just wants to be your friend!",I argued.

"Well Kawaii~Chan.It might be hard to believe,but...I.Don't.Need.Friends.Especially fake ones."

His words cut deep, and I could feel tears gloss my eyes,"But-",I called out for one more word of redemption, but he cut me off.

"You want to become my friend, because it makes you feel good about yourself.Right...?",My eyes widened, as the tears feel down."Thats what I thought.",He frowned, turning towards his dorm to walk off, but I caught the cuff of his sleeve.He tore his arm away.

"I-Kawaii~Chan wasn't trying to be selfish....She just wanted to make a new friend.And you seemed lonely, So I-"

"Look cat lady.I don't need your help!So just leave me alone-",A familiar voice sounded out distantly in the background.

A figure peered into the distance from the way of the dorms."Zane!Kc!",,The voices yelled,Waving to the both of us.We just stood there,looking as the voice came closer to us before we, were gripped in a hug.
