"Yawwwwwn...." I tossed and turned in bed for a while before finally getting up. "Wow, I've only been here for a day but everything has been so busy that it seems like a week." I thought. I sat on the edge of my bed for a while and lazily looked around my room. My hollow-eyed dolls stared back at me from every wall as I forced myself to stand up.
"I wonder what everyone's doing today...?" I thought as I walked toward the kitchen. I realized that I was panicking so much yesterday, I never got around to cleaning up the mess I made. I was hoping that someone else had already cleaned it by the time I got there. I had slept a long time, it was already afternoon, so maybe someone had. As I walked past an open doorway, someone bumped into me.
"Sor--oh. It's you." I said as I turned around to see Rexikat. I didn't want to end up pinned to a wall again, so I turned to walk away without another word. But she grabbed my arm before I could leave.
"I'm sorry." she said. "I...wasn't thinking. I just reacted. Sorry." She held out her hand to shake. I wasn't quite sure what to do. But she seemed nicer now and the fact that she was trying to appologize made me happier. Much happier. I jumped at her and threw my arms around her in a attempted hug, but apparently she still didn't like hugs because she hissed and scratched at my face, causing me to stumble backward.
"Just... don't do that, okay? I don't take well to invasions of personal space." she tried to explain.
Well, she was trying to nice this time.
"It's okay, I guess. I'll have you hugging people in no time!" I smiled. After she left, I remembered about breakfeast and hurried to the kitchen. I still had the shard of Triskix's memory in my pocket. I had decided to return it, but not directly, just in case in contained the memory of me hitting him. Then I could be far away at a safe distance.
