3. 瞳を閉じて思い出すのは

And Topic #3. :P Oh, and in case it's not painfully obvious, none of these have been proof-read. They're raw writings from the J version. I'll get around to that part later. ^^; Things get more fun with the next one. These first ones are mostly 'stuff'. :P

Hope you enjoy. ^_^

It's been three weeks since Naru returned to England. I still can't forget about what happened at the airport, but as much as possible, I'm trying to live normally going to uni, working at my part-time job, then going home for the night.

By part-time job, it's a regular office-work-type job that I recently found. While it's a new job and I haven't completely gotten used to it yet, the people there do seem more 'normal'.

Ahaha, I guess the people at SPR weren't really all that normal...

Even though Naru isn't here anymore, I still keep in touch with Ayako, Masako, Bou-san, John, and Yasuhara-san, but... It's a bit lonely not being able to see them.

We used to always have such fun seeing each other at that office. And even though Naru would say something nasty about it, those guys didn't worry about what he said. We had a lot of fun there. I expect my new job will also be fun too, but the others aren't there. We can't have fun like that together anymore. I guess, a chapter of my life has ended.

......It's supposed to have ended, but because I can't forget about what happened at the airport, I don't really feel like I can truly close that chapter to my life.

I can't just think of my time at SPR as a thing of the past.

I feel like there's still something left for me to do.

......But what?

Naru's no longer here, and I don't really feel like going to England. After all, I can't go right now. We haven't reached a break yet at uni, so I can't just up and go.

If I had four days, I could go. ...I could go there, see Naru, *strangle* that idiot mad scientist, and then come back to Japan, but... Hmm, it seems like a bit of a waste.

Not the strangling Naru part, but the only going for four days.

Aaahhhh! That guy really does annoy me!

Just why did he do that?!

Naru's really not comfortable interacting with people like that.

And yet, he kissed me. Was it nothing more than how some cultures kiss in greeting...??

That and how is it that Naru realised how I felt more than half a year than I did? That's definitely weird. ...More than weird, it's impossible! We are talking about Naru here after all.

True he can be nice a nice guy, but he isn't interested in people so it's not like him to notice that sort of thing.

So, why? How? I just don't get it.

Just when am I going to get rid of this confusion and frustration...

Right now, that's most likely impossible. But then, an image always flashes through my mind whenever I make tea at my new job. A certain, very far from here, guy's face in profile. His face when he was reading while drinking tea at that office in Shibuya, when he was lost in thought, how he looked when he was busy working, or when he was really tired... that idiot scientist's face.

I'm really sunk.

But it's not yet time for me to strangle that guy.

I can still try to continue with my life.

......I'm not ready to lose to Naru. Not yet.

Loved it!

Only error I noticed: True he can be nice a nice guy

Cheers on that. I'll have to fix that on my file (which isn't near me for some reason. Must be with Haku...). ^^;

Hope the substitutes are co-operating until Mokkun's safe return. PC I use at work knows I'm a Mac user... I get software/hardware glitches no one else does ^^ Oh and don't use IE8 beta. Definitely some kinks to work out.

Mokkun came back today and seems to be in good working order. ^_^ Brain surgery included some unexpected upgrades, so I'm extremely happy. Ewwww on IE. I try to stay well and truly away from MS, unless absolutely necessary. (I will admit, I'm very glad that the main bugs that booted me into uses Opera for a bit from Firefox seems to have been taken care of.) ^^;

[livejournal.com profile] yumenokage said the icon used for this post was made by you :p just wanted to say it was uber cute :p

Thanks ^_^ No, wasn't from the caption game. Crazy idea all mine :>

*grin* I almost feel sorry for her, but not quite. Go strangle the man, first opportunity you get!

Does Mai have a major at university, or is it something like our undecided/general studies?

[identity profile] yumenokage.livejournal.com 2008-10-04 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
By the time these shorts take place, she must have declared a major, but I never really thought about what she'd take. ^^; I don't see her doing 'English' like a lot of the girls over there do though. I don't think the author ever said what Mai'd study if she were to go to uni. The story did look at whether Mai wanted to go or not, but that was about it, IIRC.

? No idea. You'd have to ask [livejournal.com profile] sekitx2 since she made the icon. ^^;
