Snippet #1424621

After Riku had finally left the house, she waited about ten minutes until she was sure that he was gone, also to give him that little bit of a heads start. Kaizume knelt on her bed and opened the window. She listened carefully to make sure that her parents hadn't heard anything. There were only the sounds coming from downstairs, that of her two parents bickering, not fighting like the scary kind parents do, just simply disagreeing with each other. But not bad enough to cause violence, heck there wasn't even yelling, just slightly raised voices. That's how much her parents loved each other. She really was quite envious of them. They had found each other when they were very young...and now look at where they ended up in life.
When she was sure that her parents were oblivious to what she was doing she snuck out of her window. She dropped down to the ground, beside her bag. Again she froze to make sure that her parents hadn't heard anything. Standing up right Kai grabbed her duffle and slung it over her shoulder. She looked around to make sure that the coast was clear of neighbors, and began to make her way down to the docks.
She got to the docks and saw that Riku had taken his old boat across to the island. She walked over to hers and dropped the bag into the wooden structure. She pushed it into the water, and stepped in. Getting a hold of the oars she began to row after Riku, trying to make sure that her stroaks were quiet while they sliced through the water, so that she was undected.
