NAOTA:
@illholy
Naota looked over the rim of his glasses not like it did much for his vision. Naota couldn’t take his eyes off Judith, after a moment he shuffled off to the side. Moving out of the way of the front, allowing her to come in. The room smelled of freshly baked bread and sweet dough. It was mildly lit from the second set of doors leading into the main house. He doesn’t remember if he had ever let, her into the bakery before. It didn’t matter-
His over grown brown hair dripped, dripped, dripped onto the wooden floor, causing a mess. He grabbed a towel off the register he had tossed it on when he went to answer his door. He wasn’t expecting any visitors this late at night but then again this was Judith.
“Your up late,” Naota took a sit on the step leading into the main house rubbing the towel across his wet hair.
❝ Good Evening ---- ❞
She’s here again ------- with him again. How long has it been ? This erratic routine of hers, coming and going as she pleases and being welcomed regardless. Judith yawned, lethargy finally clawing back into her system as she found herself soothed by the scent of his home---- this visit was a random fancy as it always been but she supposed it was a little bit later than usual, traveling out of the city when she should be asleep, but there’s something that came to mind, something she couldn’t shake of, something that urged her to come even when the sun has long hid away.
❝ I was thinking of you and I realized. ❞
Judith motioned over, walking towards him and stopping merely inches away. Naota grew didn’t he ? While she remained stagnant ---- she still looks the same, sounds the same, acts the same and while he ? Bloomed in his way, was it his travels ? or was it just how things are suppose to be ? People are just meant to change.
❝ I never spent the holidays with you. So I wanted to do that. ❞
There is a pause, before finally pulling him into a warm embrace ---- well it wasn’t too warm, she could feel the dampness in him, but she didn’t mind.
❝ Merry Christmas, Naota and a happy new year too. ❞
