Two Straws

Two|| You Blessed My Eyes

"Nana and Sango sitting in a tree—"

"If you even dare to finish that sentence," I warned, sitting up on my bed as he giggled. "I'm just sayin'. You totally have a thing for her," Hachi insisted. "No. I just think she's pretty, that's all," I reassured, aggressively typing on the keyboard of my laptop. "Whatcha doing?" he asked, jumping into my bed and lying down on his belly. "N-Nothing!" I screeched, quickly pulling the laptop closer to me. Hachi was always faster than me, so he snatched it from my hands. "Aw, you're Inksta stalking her," he chuckled. "Hachi!!"

My twin brother only laughed, hopping off my bed and falling onto his own. "I'm tired," he groaned suddenly. "Then go to sleep," I said, a faint blush of embarrassment across my cheeks. "You know what? Good idea," he said with a small nod. "Mind getting the lights?" I nodded, flicking the light switch off with my foot, too lazy to get out of bed.

I turned on my table lamp and continued Inksta stalking Sango. After a few minutes of staring at a post of her and that yellow Inkling smiling, I gazed at the 'Follow' button. I grimaced, debating on whether I should click it or not. It's not like it mattered, right? Why would it? It's just a button. My phone dinged and a notification appeared on my laptop at the exact same time. I snatched my phone from my bedside table and all three of my hearts skipped a beat when I saw what appeared on my screen.

Sango (@sango_3) has started following you.

I chewed on my lip before pressing 'Follow Back'. My hearts started beating quicker, causing my breaths to become labored. I took a deep breath before turning closing my laptop and turning off my lamp. The only source of light that was on now was the pink fairy lights Hachi insisted on getting and the moon outside the window. Our thin curtains couldn't prevent the bright rock in the sky from shining a little bit of light into our room. I stared at Hachi from across the room. He was fast asleep, small snores escaping his mouth. I slowly shut my eyes and before I could fall into unconsciousness, I thought of Sango.

"I look really good today," Hachi said as he looked in his mirror. "You say that everyday," I noted. He rolled his eyes. "That's because I always look really good," he said, smiling at himself. "Yeah, I know," I admitted, leaving our shared bedroom to make some cereal. "Ya know what we should do today?" he asked, peaking his head out from the bedroom door. "What should we do today, Hachi?" I asked with a small yawn escaping my lips as I poured the cereal into the bowl. "Chirpy Chips is in town, they're performing later tonight at the Squidbeak Cafe," he said with a bright smile. "Chirpy Chips? Hell yeah, let's go," I agreed. I put away the milk once I was done pouring it into my bowl and sat down at our small dining table, checking my phone to see if I had any notifications. And sure enough, there was.

sango_3 liked your post.
sango_3 liked your post.

I only had two posts on my feed currently from restarting it so much times but I was really liking it lately. Along with liking the two posts, Sango felt the need to do a little comment bomb on both posts.

sango_3 commented: wow, ur so pretty!!!
sango_3 commented: u literally blessed my eyes!
sango_3 commented: ur a goddess!!
sango_3 commented: who is she????

The Inkling girl then left a bunch of emojis. I liked all of the comments she left on both of my posts (which was at least ten for each post) and replied to one of her many comments.

sango_3 u literally blessed my eyes!
    obg_nana get used to it ;)

"You player!" Hachi giggled from behind me. "Cod! Was that necessary?" I jumped, an irritable groan leaving my mouth as I flicked his head. "You never reply to comments," he said, sitting next to me and taking a bite of my cereal. "It's polite," I said, putting my phone down. "If it's polite, why don't you do that for your hundreds of other comments?" he queried. I frowned. Hachi was right. I opened up Inkstagram and sighed as I looked at my follower list and my following list.
