Breakdown

Satomi--

Ami paces up and down my room, silent as ever. Something is up, that I can tell. I asked her already, but she didn't answer. But Ami always hides her real emotions from me, always covered by a bubbly mask. I'll have to ask her family if she is that way with them too. For now, I wait. One day she'll open up. After a while, she takes a deep breath.
"I should go check on the others." She says, "After all, Keij did leave me in charge." Ami flashes a grin, and the peace symbol,
"Though, it was probably a mistake on his part!"

Ami

I run from Satomi, and head straight to my room. I lock the door, and sink to the floor, taking shuddering breaths. It's so unfair! Natsumi and Kohaku break up, and she's almost expected to breakdown. I mean, things happen to me too! I was told by Keiji I'm never to see Satomi again. Yet, I can't break down. I'm expected have to keep a bright outlook. I mean, I try, honest. But it's not fair. I can't even remember the last time anyone saw me get upset. And I havn't cried since I was 7 years old. I don't even think I remember how. I take a deep breath. "Pull it together, Ami." I murmur to myself, "Come on, the younger ones need you."

Finally, after what seems like a long time, I get up and walk downstairs. I pull out my phone, and dial Keiji. He answers on the third ring.
"Hello Ami." he says,
"Hey, Keij." I say, "How's Natsuchan?"
Keiji doesn't answer for a long time. Finally he fills me in. I hang up without saying a word. I know I should feel bad for Natsumi, but I can't help but wish that people would notice when I'm hurting.

Yeah, I know, it added nothing to the story. But I was bored and wanted to post something.
