Ending
~Ayano's Pov~
It's been around a month. I kinda broke into Emily's house and stole the key to the Info club so I could take over while she's away. Surprised there wasn't anyone in there, what parent let's some random kid break into their house and steals their daughter's stuff?! Actually what parents wouldn't be there to mourn their daughter who's in a coma in the hospital- oh god don't tell me she's an orphan. Fuck. Now I feel worse.
Anyway Taro told me that she woke up last night! She'll return in like a week or whatever but needs rest and they need to make sure she's ok and shit like that.
~Emily's Pov~
Ugh. I have to go to school again. I could stay home, no, Taro would get worried. He says that Ayano wants to be friends, and I'd love that, but it's Ayano. There's probably some sneaky catch or some way to murder me involved. But at least I'll be in the friendzone. That's an improvement.
As I walked to Taro's house, I could've sworn I saw someone. I just need my glasses probably. My eyesight's always been this terrible.
"Hi Taro-kun!" I greeted him. He wrapped me in a tight hug and Osana smiled. For a second before bickering again. "Ugh thank god, without you this baka has been even more annoying. Hanging out with Mrs Stabby Stab." Taro playfully rolled his eyes. "Wouldn't it be Ms Stabby Stab? I mean she is single." "Whatever!" Welp good to see stuff hasn't changed since I was gone. No aliens took over, and Osana's still an asshole.
Getting to my locker, Ayano walked up to me and handed me a key. "I've done some of your work while you were gone." While half of me was slightly unnerved she was in my room, like how the hell did she get my key, I was still kinda thankful that I wouldn't be found out. The last thing I want to do on my first day back is go to the guidance counselor for reasons not to endorse taking pictures without consent.
And throughout the week it was just as uneventful as any other week I wasn't comatose. Although I could've sworn multiple times I've seen someone watching me.
After sorting through all the notes people put in my locker, most of them uselessly borring, I found a love confession card. So on Friday I walked to the cherry tree and wouldn't you know it Ayano was there. After I fainted, she dragged me by the arm up the hill.
She then violently shook me until I regained consciousness. Yeah she's kinda rude but I'm honestly ok with that. "So in the month you were gone, I've decided to look over our, uh, friendship. And I'm sorry I've been slightly mean. Ok maybe like a lot of mean. But you mean a lot to me. You're honestly one of my best friends. And I don't know what I would do without you. So Emily-senpai, will you go out with me?" I squealed and cuddled her tightly. "Yes. Yes, yes, yes!" She giggled. "Wait. You've stalked me all week haven't you." She shrugged. "You honestly can't expect better from me. Take it as a compliment that I stalked you." I smiled and gave her a small peck on the lips.
I ran down the hill and quickly found Taro. "Omg we're dating! We're fucking dating!!" Taro ruffled my hair and smiled. "Figured. She obsessively visited you everyday." While I was squealing about how amazing this was I got a text. "Hold on Taro I got to see this.
I walked a couple feet from the school and took out my phone.
Hey. So I need to come back to Japan.
It's been years. And now you text me.
Listen daughter she found me. So do you have cash so I can fly back.
Yeah I've been saving up.
Thanks.
As soon as I closed my phone I began laughing hysterically. My dad was coming. Great. Now I'm dating an Aishi and my dad finally decides to visit. Fantastic.
Ayano heard my laughing and walked over. "Everything alright?" I nodded. Even though it was quite the opposite..
