I'll Be There (KIRIBAKU)

13

   A week passed with no reply. Kirishima was very anxious everyday, and he spent most of his time in the gym, in attempts to get his mind off of it. He played more video games than he ever did before, and he probably even beat Denki's Super Mario Bros on the Wii U he had, yet he still didn't feel more relaxed. He had struggled a bit in boxing when that came, and he almost got knocked out if it wasn't for the fact Tetsutetsu had yelled at him to pay attention. He had tried to ignore his mind, and then focused on the matches. It wasn't easy, but he managed, and after it, Tetsutetsu offered that they go out again.

   They spent most of their time in a cafe near by, and then they went over to an arcade so that they could just enjoy anything new or old. They both lost many times, but at least they enjoyed it. Spending a couple hours there, they later decided to just go home, since tomorrow is the weekend, and they both like to sleep in late when they can.

   Arriving in his apartment, Kirishima quickly logged into his computer, and quickly clicked his browser. He waited about five minutes for it to show up, and he wasn't surprised when about ten tabs opened at the same time. He almost cursed when he accidentally closed all of them, and he clicked once, waiting for it to load again. It loaded faster, and then he quickly went on to check his emails.

   "Come on, hurry up," he muttered, watching the page load very slowly. 

   He looked at his WiFi box, and then sighed as he saw it was working perfectly well. Maybe his computer was just being a pain. As his emails finally loaded, and he was disappointed when he saw nothing. That was until his computer decided to be dumb, and refreshed the page on its own, and then a new email showed up.

   "Oh! Fuck!" he exclaimed, seeing that it came from one of the jobs he applied for. He quickly searched for his phone, and called Ashido. Once the call connected, he almost yelled. "Mina! You've got to come here!" he exclaimed.

   "Huh? Wha- Did you break something?" she asked, definitely alarmed.

   "I received an email!" he announced.

   "Oh shit! I'm coming!"

   She was indeed coming, as he heard a crash from next door, and when a loud 'ow' but that was quickly stopped when he heard his own door open and Ashido closed it, and then ran up to him, jumping on his couch and her head landed on his thigh. 

   He almost exclaimed in surprise at her jumping, but when she pulled the computer from the coffee table to put it on his lap, she sat up straight and settled beside him comfortably.

   "Show me," she said, pointing at the email. "Which one is that?" she asked.

   Kirishima clicked the email so they can read it together. "Uh. I think that's the after-school daycare thing near the primary school and the library," he said.

   "It's not that far, then," she smiled.

   They read it together in silence, and were happy about the reply. Apparently, Kirishima will be having an interview on a Monday morning, and if it goes well, then he'll be able to have a trial week started on the Tuesday, the day after the interview. 

   "That's... reasonable," shrugged Kirishima. "I mean, it is a daycare, and it's pretty good that they have a trial week."

   "Yes, but you'll have to get details about it if they don't ask. Like say... if you get paid during it, or if it is just observing and not actually working," she said. "Anyway, from the looks of it, it is a positive response! You are good with kids, and you are pretty cheerful when you want to, so I doubt they would refuse you to work there. Maybe the trial week will determine whether or not you are competent, which I'm sure you are, but the interview should be a breeze, at least," she smiled.
