she's so cute my heart can't handle it

seeing as we got a small break after the festival for everyone to rest, i literally just slept most of the day.

thank god i didn't have any nightmares though, cause that really would've sucked ass.

"OKAY BITCHASS TIME TO GET THE FUCK UP AND GET SOME FUCKING FOOD!!!"

"okay okay just fuck off, i'm up!" i shout at the parasite, and he continues to pester me by insulting me.

venom isn't able to leave my body for a long amount of time, but he always gets into a cup that i leave outside my room when i'm changing. that way i don't feel like he's watching me. ew.

once i'm done and he's back to being a nuisance, i look around the small kitchen for anything edible.

but to our luck

"there's no fucking food you slut"

"shut up, we can just go eat out."

"with what money? you're saving everything for the rent"

"you know i always set some aside for food incase we run out, so stop it."

i grab my wallet and keys, leaving the apartment and locking it behind me. i nod to one of the neighbors who's just sitting outside their door smoking a joint, and they wave me off sluggishly.

heading down the stairs, i pass by the landlady's office, speeding past it so i won't have to make conversation with the nice but pestering woman. she's really a lovely woman, but every time i see her, she brings up the rent or school and i'd rather not talk about my shit education or the money i don't fucking have.

why don't we just get tater tots or some shit

"because while you may like them, i don't, so we're just gonna stock up on instant stuff," i shoot him down, leaving him grumbling as we go down the sidewalk.

there's a convenience store a few blocks from my apartment building, a bit closer to the more populated part of the city, and they even have some international food and snack stuff that they bring in. some of it is really good, and since the prices are decent, i stock up as much as i can afford.

walking in, i nod at the cashier who has come to recognize me after all the times i've been here, and tread down one of the farther isles, close to the freezers.

i grab two bottles of water, because i need more water and i can't keep drinking tap with the rent coming up, and then turn to look at the chips. a few onigiri make their way into the basket i'd picked up, along with some honey buddha chips and banana milk that i'd grown addicted to. the koreans have some really good snacks.

a few bento sets are soon added, along with some ramen, and i look at the prices to check and see if i can afford this with the amount i've set aside.

i had brought ¥3000, and looking at all that i was buying i had more than i could afford.

well damn. guess you have to put some shit back

"well i think i can last without the chips, because those won't really be filling enough, but i can last better off snacks. i mean i'm
skipping breakfast anyways, but still..." i start muttering to myself, going over every possibility.

"huh? sasaki-chan?" a voice calls to my left, and my head snaps up to see who it is. i'm surprised to see that it's jirou, who's looking at me in total confusion and shock herself.

"i didn't know you came here, jirou-chan," i say as casually as i can when seeing a classmate i'm not close to outside of school. she nods in return, silently saying the same thing in return. i shuffle nervously, not really knowing what to do now that we've barely spoken, but fortunately, she breaks the silence.
