seven. | study

"So uhh.."

"I've been..kind of failing school at the moment?"

Rantaro said, I can still hear the faint background noises of his sisters.

"I was wondering if we could meet up somewhere to study? Since you're really smart and I don't know who else to ask so I asked you." Rantaro said, laughing a bit, I could hear that he's embarrassed asking.

I smile a bit. "Of course, Rantaro! Do you have a place in mind?" I said.

"..Well there's this cafe near where I live. It's a pretty cozy place and a great place for studying." He said.

"Oh! What's the cafe then?"

"I believe it's.. Danganronpa Cafe. DRC for short."

"I think I've heard of that before, could you send me the location?"

"Yea, sure. I'll send the location to you."

"And when are we meeting up?"

"Hmm.. I was thinking tomorrow at 4:30 PM?"

"Okay! That sounds good."

"Great. Oh, gotta go take care of my sisters. I'll send you the location after, see ya Shuichi."

"Bye, Rantaro!"

Call ended
4:05:31

I stared at the numbers in bewilderment, what?!

I swear we were only talking for 30 minutes..

I was puzzled, still not understanding how it's been 4 hours and not 30 minutes.

I sighed, giving up.

I guess time does fly when you're enjoying something..

I checked the time.

9:30 PM

I got up, grabbing my homework and notebooks, then crouching down and unzipping my backpack, neatly placing my notebooks and homework inside, then zipping it back up.

I stood up, walking over to my bathroom and flicking the lights on.

I looked at myself in the mirror. My eye bags are still visible, I look exhausted.

I sighed, grabbing my tooth brush and toothpaste, unscrewing the lid, and squeezing the toothpaste out on the toothbrush. I brush my teeth, still looking at myself in the mirror, then thinking about my soulmate.

I finished brushing my teeth, spitting it out and rinsing my mouth.

I look at myself again, then looking at my wrist.

I frown a bit, slowly pulling my sleeve down.

Who would even want an insomniac soulmate?

I stare at my wrist, the same letter still on my wrist.

I sigh, pulling my sleeve down and walking out the bathroom, flicking the lights off on my way out.

I face planted on my bed, then shifting a bit so that I'm basically staring at my ceiling.

I decided to go on twitter for a bit until I can fall asleep.

It's been 2 hours, I've been looking at tweets, liking them and retweeting them, and sometimes leaving replies on them.

I keep scrolling on twitter until I feel my eyelids getting heavy. I placed my phone on my night stand, plugging it in so it's charging.

I rubbed my face, then getting comfortable, cuddling in my own blanket and closing my eyes.

I fell asleep peacefully, wondering how tomorrow will be.
