It doesn't look like I'm going to do anything until tomorrow. Makoto looked at her watch and just realized how late it was. Her back started to ache, and the burns on her neck started to bother her again. She put her phone in the cup holder and drove back to her apartment.

Makoto parked the SUV a block away from her apartment. She took her equipment with her and turned on the SUV's alarm. She slipped her hand into her back pocket and unlocked the front door. Makoto stepped in and closed the door behind her, locking it before heading over to the table to unload her equipment.

...ugh, I smell like smoke. Taking a shower is going to suck. Makoto sighed as she walked into the bathroom, doing her best to avoid her clothes from irritating the burns she got from Hayate.

After she took a refreshing, yet painful shower, Makoto gently rubbed the medical gel onto her neck and lower back before she laid down on her bed.
