“I’m fine dad - really, I’m gonna let you go now so I can start unpacking - no, I don’t want to come home…Here’s an idea, how about you call mom and have her come…” Ran’s phone went dead. She gave a slightly annoyed face as she put it in her pocket and began to unpack her things. Guess I should have mentioned mom earlier… Ran thought to herself and sighed heavily - she didn’t understand why they hated each other so much. After all, they were childhood friends and they’d loved each other at one point. Ran was abruptly halted from any further thoughts on the matter as she heard a light tapping on the door. “Oi..“ Ran whispered quietly “A visitor” She said cheerfully as she sprinted towards the door to let her guest inside.
Sigh, okay, this was it. Conan was going to do it now. He had known Ran started living in Toshi City for a while now, but he had been a little too scared to visit her for some time now. Why wouldn’t he be? He had left her as Shinichi and now Conan as well, but it’s not like he felt like he had a choice. There was something up with this city, something he had to solve… but right now, Ran came first. The more he waited, the more painful it would become after all. And with that, he knocked on the door.
He patiently waited for the door to be opened. What was he going to say once he saw her? There were many thoughts that ran through his head and there were many things he would like to tell her. Ran had always been waiting for him, but until now, he always tried comforting her as Conan. Now no one was at her side who did… right?
“Good afternoon, Ran-neechan!” He finally said as the door was opened, a forced smile on his face.
