This is mostly to assure any of my readers (the few of you that there are) that I have not, indeed, fallen off the face of the earth...just moved to the other side of it. That's right...I'm finally getting settled into my new university in Nagoya. Enjoy this little ficlet for now... bigger inspiration is sure to hit soon.
It's noisy out, with the cars rushing past at all hours of the day, the thin foliage doing next to nothing to buffer the sounds on the second floor. True, I could close the sliding glass door to my tiny patio. It would shut out the din of motorists and the occasional overly rambunctious pedestrian, but there's something else it would shut out too…
I'm a fool for thinking you would still have anything to do with me. You finally obtained what you were so desperately searching for. You filled the hole in his heart that you hadn't even realized was there. You'd have nothing to gain from a visit…but it's my newfound human sentimentality that longs for the same sort of companionship we'd had before.
I still get the sensation that I'm being watched from far off, by unseen eyes. Every time, I can't help but draw back the sheer curtains and search the immediate area for that familiar shadow of yours. Every time I'm disappointed. I don't know whether to blame paranoia or your ability to avoid detection. Honestly, you're infuriating, you know?
And yet, I've left the doors open, just in case you decide to humor my overly-romantic tendencies. Stranger things have happened…
I apologize for the shortness, and any nonsensical bits you may find. Make sure to point them out to me...I'd like to fix them. Also...I'm squishing so much Japanese into my brain that my English might suffer. If I make a really obvious grammar mistake, you can blame that.
Oh...interesting note. Redheads really do get fangirls in Japanese schools. The girls here are psychotic...I'll probably be able to get a good fic from those experiences later. Thank you for reading!!
