Sei says. Yumi looks up at Sei, who is sitting back on her haunches, her regard serious. Yumi kneels back, feeling her smile dissipate with Sei's words.
-We need to talk, don't we Yumi.
Not a question this.
-Yes, Sei. We really do. Can we talk in the bath?
Sei, smiling but with serious eyes, agrees. Standing up, she holds out her hand to Yumi, which Yumi takes, agilely popping onto her feet. As they leave Yumi's room, Yumi points to the bathroom, then leaves Sei to it to go and retrieve the pyjamas her mother left out for Sei. She stops back to her room to drop them off, grabbing a couple of robes out of her wardrobe. By the time she gets to the bathroom, Sei is already soaping herself up, sat on the little plastic stool by the shower attachment. Yumi quickly takes off her own uniform and hangs it up beside Sei's. Removing the rest of her underwear, she throws them in the laundry hamper, then goes to join her.
