[b][color=C48793]MENTIONS:[/color][/b] [color=D1D0CE] Iwao ([@HereComesTheSnow])[/color][/center]
[color=D1D0CE]Sayuri could hardly hear what Iwao was saying. Lost in her thoughts, she continued to wash and rinse. It was only when he asked her a question that she broke out of her daze, glancing over at him in a mixture of confusion and curiosity. Had she hardly missed his query? That would've been awkward if she would have to asked him what he asked her... she shook her head, forcing a light smile upon her lips as she turned fully to him. [b][color=C48793]"Ooh, it's nothing important. Hiro's just been so busy lately, he's hardly ever home in time for dinner and I don't get to share a bed with him that often anymore. But he says that his schedule will clear up soon and all,"[/color][/b] she sighed, resting an elbow upon the countertop and placing her chin in her hand. [b][color=C48793]"I just wish that he had more time for me, that's all. Things get real lonely when you're alone. If you hadn't shown up, I'd probably just have washed those dishes and gone back to bed. It's too hot to be up and about with no one to keep you company, after all."[/color][/b]

Wow, that was the most she had spoken in the day so far. Perhaps she was running her tongue a bit too much. Suddenly flustered, she turned back to the sink and dried off the bowls. What would Iwao even say to that? It wasn't his business to know in the first place. That, and she didn't want him to think Hiro was a bad boyfriend. What if he mentioned it to Hiro and he got upset? Her grip on the edge of the bowl tightened a little. [b][color=C48793]"I guess what I'm saying is that I can't wait until he's free again. It's so nice having him around, isn't it?"[/color][/b] [/color]
