It had been a pleasant day. The weather in the evening had been nice enough to make Nanao decide to walk home from her class, which she did with a light step. The cool air grew cooler as she walked, but she didn't mind at all. She loved the winter when it was like it had been, clear skies during the day and hazy clouds right at sunset.

Hinata headed down the stairs towards the mail, looking down at the ground and not paying much attention. She hadn't even thought to grab their mail when she'd gotten home, and it had only just now occurred to her.

She stopped suddenly when she glanced up and saw someone else there. She hadn't expected to run into anyone.

"Ah, I'm sorry."

Nanao almost didn't look up from the letter still clenched in her hands, but when she realized that she didn't recognize the voice she slowly pulled her attention away.

"Sorry.. for what? Here. I'm in the way," she mumbled, sliding sideways down the wall, dragging her bag along with her foot. Her hands were still clenched on the papers, but she tried to smile at the newcomer.

"I'm sorry... I don't think we've met... Ise Nanao, apartment 4." With an almost visable effort, she let go of the paper and offered her hand to the other woman.

Hinata watched the woman closely before stepping forward and taking her hand, shaking it quickly before pulling away. "Hyuuga Hinata, Apartment 7." She was sure Nanao was right in that they hadn't met, but she did seem familiar somehow. They must have passed by each other a few times.

She tried not to look at how the other girl clenched the papers in her hands and focused instead on getting her mail. Not much--some bills, spam mail, useless credit card offers. Shutting the small door, Hinata paused and then glanced over at Nanao. And couldn't keep herself from worrying.

"...Are you alright?"

Nanao had already looked back down at the letter while Hinata got her mail. She blinked, clearly not expecting the question. "I... just got a letter from my father... I thought I'd never hear from him again..."

She carefully folded the letter back up and made sure she put it back in the envelope before she looked back over at Hinata. "I've seen you around, if I remember. You were at the party, weren't you?"
