Shinobu’s Diary
Entry Date: Unconfirmed

Dear Diary,

Motoko-chan and I went shopping together today. Since Kanako-san’s 
been gone, I’ve been with Motoko-chan a lot. She has certainly become 
far more masculine nowadays, wearing some clothes that I swear were 
senpai’s. It’s strange really, she was so feminine before already but 
now, it seems like it’s starting to wear off. If that’s even possible!

Now that I think about it, I think I miss Kanako-san. I don’t think 
anyone else does, even senpai barely seems to notice that she’s gone. 
She hasn’t really become a fixture, of sorts, around here. I don’t 
think that anyone really noticed whatever it was she was doing when 
she was still here. Now that I think about it, I never really saw that 
much of her either.

It’s not that I was avoiding her though. It felt more likes she was 
avoiding me. I wonder, was it something I said? Was it something I 
did? I probably shouldn’t even try to figure it out. Senpai says 
Kanako-san’s far too complex for anyone other than someone just like 
her to comprehend. She’s a strange girl, that’s for sure. I wonder why 
she left without even saying anything…

Haruka-san says that Kanako-san’s just doesn’t have the skill. When I 
asked what she meant and what skill Kanako-san lacked, she answered 
“she doesn’t have the skill to be alive”. I know I heard that from 
some show that Kanako-san liked, I just can’t remember which one. It’s 
a little embarrassing really, I like to think I know her the best 
among everyone here but…I don’t even know what sorts of things she 
likes. I don’t even know her birthday.

I remember that senpai didn’t know it either. Neither did Haruka-san. 
They said that the reason why is that Kanako-san always ran away 
whenever they would have a party for her as a child and eventually, 
they just decided to forget about it. I…not to say I think they’re 
lying but…I think the real reason they don’t know is that they just 
don’t care to remember. I know that makes them sound cold but…

I think everything Kanako-san does is to get people’s attention. I am 
sure she feels alone and just wants someone to talk to her, to listen 
to her. I guess she wasn’t ready to open up just yet. Maybe I was 
pushing too much, trying to be friendly and all. I can’t help but 
think she thought I was up to something. I certainly hope she 
didn’t…I’d hate for her to think that of me.

Anyway, Motoko-chan and I are alone together again. It was by pure 
coincidence, really. Senpai and Naru-senpai were invited to someone’s 
dinner party. I’m not sure but it was someone named…Sakata Keitaro? 
I’m not really sure. Kitsune-san decided to take Sara out (hopefully, 
not bar hopping!) and she decided to bring Mutsumi-san along with her. 
And Su-chan is visiting her family in Molmol so that leaves just…me 
and Motoko-chan.

Now that I think about it, it seems like Motoko-chan and I end up 
alone with each other in Hinata Sou more and more often nowadays…maybe 
it means something?

blush

Well, that’s it for today. I still have finals tomorrow and management 
is a real weakness of mine. Too bad I can’t ask senpai or Naru-senpai 
for help and Motoko-chan doesn’t do too well on that subject either. I 
better study now; I can’t really afford to fail in that subject.

End Entry
