Friday Nights in Hiroshima

Riyu had lived with Evalie for a year and a half while they both went to school, he was used to her scatterbrained antics. Most people in Japan would disapprove of two people of the opposite sex living together, it just wasn't done. But the pair were friends first and roommates second, no drama. They simply became roommates out of necessity. As much as they noticed each other for their great friendship, the pair often wondered to themselves what would happen if they stared too long at the other, hugged too much, or became too intoxicated to see the line they were crossing.
