"Yea, it is.......why they are doing this? If my parents are seeing this, my dad will be so furious. I would be mad too but not as much."
"Why are they doing this anyway Sayuka?"

"I don't know. But I won't stand for it. I won't let my country be run by this...Keiretsu Council. It sounds a little fishy to me."
"I am not going to support some government of businesses. I will organize against it, or join others. I am sure this won't be tolerated."

A day passes and Bassarov takes the first of his graduation exams. He is tested from 8am to 3pm, and when he is done he is mentally exhausted. He waits for the trolley bus outside the university, hoping that he did well on the tests.
If he did not, he will have to wait a whole year to take them again. He sighs and thinks about Henna, hoping that she is having a nice time visiting her family.

"Well I certainly wouldn't want Israel or any country for that matter to fall to fascism." Cambridge replies. Sie turns on the news to see the new French president giving a speech.
"That man is a borderline Nazi." Sie says as he talks about pulling out of the EU and the scourge of jews in France.

Bassarov catches the bus and returns home to his mother, sister and friends. He is too exhausted to talk to them, so he decides instead to take a nap. He goes to his old room, which is decorated much as it was when he was in school. The room seems somehow smaller though. He looks around the room at his old pictures, awards, and books and feels comforted by old memories. He falls asleep in a content exhaustion.

I look up at the TV, and say "Yeah, well it would surprise me if he was in office for more than two weeks. The people will only tolerate so much, and he doesn't seem to have that much backing..."

"And I will talk to the members of my party and tell them to go aganist this Keiretsu Council. I hated now than before...........I just hated it. I can tell my sisters about this since both of them are Socialists."
"Is that okay with you?"

"Sure, and maybe I can talk to my party as well. Hopefully with enough mass action against this new council government, we can change things." I reply.
"Otherwise how have you been, Mihoko?"

"Your right. I won't worry about it." Cambridge replies and starts walking towards Selja's room.
"I'm going to check on Selja and see how she is doing." Sie says before peeking hir head inside Selja's bedroom.

I drift awake when Cambridge opens the door. "Yeah... I'm okay..." I say wearialy, even though I feel horrible at the moment. I am achey and my belly feels swollen.

"I just wanted to say that we're alive. It was quite a thing that happened. Terrible tragedy."
"Good thing you stayed back."

Damek wakes up with some pineneedles in his hair from sleeping under the tree. He yawns and wonders what he should do today. His stomach rumbles so finding food is an order. He figures that maybe he can work on a local farm or something to pick up some cash. So, he starts asking around town if any farmers need a hand.
