Room 503, Saturday Evening

[dojima_hime]

It was wrong.  It had to be. 

Yurika had spent the day wandering the island, trying to clear her head and praying for another result. 

No luck. 

Now she was seated at her desk, pen at the ready, as she tried to find some way to explain this to Romeo.  To Father Juliano.  To anyone. 

"You better be worth this," she muttered, placing her hand on her stomach.  "Kazuki Montague."




[OOC:  Open door and post is open!  Yurika's herself, mostly, just overly-melodramatic and a wee bit pregnant....]
[ETA:  Romeo's visit comes last chronologically.]

"I'd ask how it happened," Triela shook her head, "But I assume it was in the usual way."

"So... you're keeping it?" Triela didn't sound like she approved of that plan.

"I don't know!" Yurika got up to pace the room and shook her head. "I'm careful! I'm always careful, I have no idea how it happened!"

"I don't want it." There. She said it. "But I met a maybe-future-kid after prom last year. Do I have the right to make that little boy's future disappear?"

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"How do you know you would?" Triela asked lightly. "You could always have another kid later."

It was a lot easier to be casual about something that happened to other people.

"True..." Yurika sighed and shoved her hands through her hair. "I like kids. I do. A lot, even. And I'm good with them! But I don't think I can do this. Not with the job I have lined up after graduation."

Oh god, Father Juliano would be furious with her for this.

"I thought you had some sort of crappy thing your dad was working out for you?" Triela frowned. She wasn't sure, of course, it's not like they'd ever talked about the future.

"I do," she lied smoothly. Not really lying, but truth-bending again. "He traded me off to a friend for a business deal. I'm supposed to be working as sort of a supernatural law-enforcement person, but this makes that a bit difficult."

"Maybe they have desk jobs?" Triela suggested. Not that she actually had any idea.

[dojima-hime.livejournal.com]

"Right. I'd be a fantastic office girl, making the coffee and filing things..."

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

Triela couldn't help herself. She actually snorted at that. "You have a point there."

[dojima-hime.livejournal.com]

"We're not even going to discuss what might happen the first time someone wanted me to fetch their lunch for them," she replied. "I'd probably screw up the order on purpose, or dump fish oil in it."

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Or use them for target practice," Triela agreed.

"So... What will you do?"

[dojima-hime.livejournal.com]

"Talk to Romeo, I guess. It's his problem too," Yurika admitted slowly. "He... his religion has certain views on this sort of thing."

Namely that he should not have been sleeping with her at all, but that was beside the point. Mostly.

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Yeah," Triela nodded slowly. "That's probably a good idea. He seems to be a pretty level-headed guy. I'm sure that between the two of you, you'll get things figured out."

[dojima-hime.livejournal.com]

Yurika couldn't help it, she burst out laughing. "Level-headed? Him?" she gasped, shaking her head. "Trust me, Romeo's passions tend to outrule his sense at times."

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Well," Triela quirked an eyebrow suggestively. "You would know."

Then, in case that was too subtle, she shot a pointed look at Dojima's belly.
