Spirits of the Noh
“Kara sat at the dining table drinking a glass of juice, barely awake. She’d pulled on a pair of threadbare denim shorts and still wore the oversize T-shirt she’d slept in, and she rubbed sleep out of her eyes as she went to answer the door. Pulling it open, she found Miho and Sakura waiting on the stoop, smiling conspiratorially.
“Good morning, Kara!” Miho said brightly.
Kara leaned against the jamb, still half-asleep. “You guys aren’t supposed to be here for another hour.”
Sakura replied with an unusually open grin. “Change of plans. Get dressed. The guys will be here soon!”
Guys. Soon. That woke her up. Kara didn’t think of herself as especially vain, and Hachiro might even think the just-rolled-out-of-bed look was cute, but if they were going out, she wanted to pull herself together, and better to do it before the guys arrived.
More focused now, she studied the girls. Sakura had added a streak of red into her hair, though she’d have to take it out by the time school started tomorrow.
