While He Slept

.

Mei came to the Shiroyuki dojo early in the morning because she was worried about Kazuya. Though everyone in the Kouzuki house was informed of the excuses they thought of to not let them worry, she was well aware of just what he intended to do.

"He doesn't have a scratch on him but as you can see…" Jirou led Mei into his granddaughter's room where Kazuya slept like a log after Tomoyo was summoned by her grandmother for her morning routine in the kitchen. "He's exhausted from overusing what you guys call mana. Since it is related to internal energy, I know that he will need a lot of rest to recover so he might not be able to go to school today"

"Can you tell me what exactly happened?" Mei turned to Jirou and asked seriously. She may not have as good of a relationship with this old man like Kyouko did but since they were sharing the same secret concerning Kazuno Technologies, the two had grown more comfortable with each other.
