Under The Fox's Tail ⁷

See You Again

It has been two days since the day that you freaked out in the bathroom and screamed for Yukio to come.

She had arrived out of breath then you had pulled her inside and closed the bathroom door shut before explaining to her about the sign on your inner thigh. A sign that you couldn't find anywhere even though you have sworn that you had seen it.

In the end, the situation had concluded with you being stressed and maybe hallucinating about it however you had checked that place in the mirror every night before going to sleep, slowly believing that option of just being overwhelmed by this sudden situation and that might have caused you to be a little over obsessed.

The days you passed on the village had gone by pretty nicely if you were to exclude that. Yukio's grandma was the sweetest and the nature there was really beautiful despite being winter season.

However, spring was just around the corner as it now was February and most precisely, 20th as you had arrived on date 17th.

You bid goodbye to Yukio's grandmother and started walking down the mountain, this time not even complaining about the distance you had to walk or asking for any shortcuts. You had taken your lesson.

You kept laughing and chatting with each other while walking, making the way down more enjoyable than the last time you were walking up into that forest in which you were forbidden to say a single word.

The bus, fortunately, didn't take long to come after you arrived at the bus stop and you happily watched out the window, letting behind a peaceful village and the weirdest experience you had ever had in all your life.

The memory of that fox guy was now vague in your mind as if it had happened a long time ago or even better as something that you had dreamed of and now were unable to recall correctly.

One thing though surely was engraved deeply into your thoughts and that was the feeling of his lips against yours and the suffocating feeling under the tight grip of his white furry, soft-looking tails.

You instantly shivered at the recalling as once again your mind had gone to that memory without your permission, your fingers reaching over your neck protectively.

It will take a while to shake this off.

You had thought before Yukio's voice demanded your attention over a post on Instagram she was seeing.

---Time skip---

You were now at the airport, waiting in line for the check-in. Yukio was right behind you, still having teary eyes from her goodbye with her parents that had accompanied you to the airport after the dinner you had at her house.

They had even picked you up at the station after you had arrived from the village then you had all headed to her house, gathering your full luggage and eating, as her mother had demanded, before letting you start your way towards the airport.

You looked back at her giggling at her crocodile tears and you soon felt her hitting your back, for it didn't take long for her to realise that you were laughing at her.

"Shut up. You cried when we left your house too." She commented making you smile despite the fact that it was true.

You weren't someone that cries easily, especially in front of others, however, when it came to your family things were different.

They didn't always understand you but that was fine cause everyone had such moments and at the end of the day they remained your family and people whom you loved dearly.
