[KIYOMI]
Of all the things that she could have woken up to, an empty bed was certainly not what she had in mind.
It was as if everything that had happened was just some daring dream that she had had, save for the fact that she was in the palace and in a room that reeked of Sakura Watanabe.
That was her only consolation, even though it didn't feel like much because the moment she tapped the side of the bed where she had laid Sakura, it was cold.
Way too cold.
The kind of cold that came with the size of a bed that was never slept in. And Kiyomi wondered if she had been the one who had hallucinated the previous evening. However, before she could make out what she was seeing, there was a knock at the door.
"Miss Kimura, may I please come in?" Lola's familiar voice came through, and Kiyoko let out a sigh of relief. It was relaxing to hear a familiar voice, even when she wasn't sure why Lola had stopped claiming her by the title he had hated.
