Suicide Cafe
Episode 1 : Girl's Stress
It was a good day at Hilma City where Suicide Café was first built.
Kiyana Ishihara
Ao-san, do you think people will die today?
Ao Tsubame
Of course. Every single day must have someone that dies in this whole world. That's just how the world works.
Kiyana Ishihara
I see. How many people will die in a day?
Ao Tsubame
Only god knows. We have 7.9 billion people living in this world this year. And everyone will die, that's all that I know.
Kiyana Ishihara
That's right, no one knows when they die, right?
Ao Tsubame
That's right. We can just prepare for it.
Suddenly, the door opens and a high school girl walked in...
Kiyana Ishihara
Hello there! Welcome!
Kika
This is the café that is for suicide, right?
Kiyana Ishihara
Yeah... How can we help you?
Kika
I want to kill myself. But first, can you help me?
Kiyana Ishihara
Of course. Anything.
Kika
Can you cut my hair to give it to my family?
Kiyana Ishihara
What? You don't want to keep it?
Kiyana Ishihara
Okay, then. Ao-san. Can you help me get the scissors?
Ao Tsubame
Sure. I will be right back.
Ao went to a store room to get the scissors. Meanwhile Kiyana asks the girl's name.
Kika
My name is Kika. I am 16 years old and attended my final day today at Hilma High School. I live at Hilma Residential and I have always hated living every second of my life.
Kiyana Ishihara
Can you tell me why?
Suddenly, Lana appears out of nowhere.
Lana Ryuta
Kiyana nee-chan, here you go! Ao nee-chan asked me to give this to you!
Kiyana Ishihara
Lana-chan, can you please stop doing that?! You scared me there! Sorry, Kika-chan, Lana-chan just loves appearing all of a sudden.
Kiyana took the scissors that Lana gave.
Kika
It's okay. Can we start cutting my hair now?
Kiyana Ishihara
Sure. Sit here. How short do you want to cut your hair?
Kiyana Ishihara
Okay, sit back, relax and you can tell me your story...
Kika
I have a brother and two sisters. My parents used to work overseas so they are not usually home.
Kika
My brother and sisters have always bullied me. Pretty childish for high schoolers if you ask me.
Kiyana Ishihara
How old are they?
Kika
My brother's 17 and my sisters are both 18.
Kiyana Ishihara
I see. Continue your story.
Kika
Actually, I am bullied at school too. My annoying classmates were always pranking me with every way they can. Teachers? Useless sons of bitches. I don't really care anymore. It's just, yes, I am a top student in my year, but do you think they care? No. They keep saying bad words and were always picking fights with me. Grr, f*ck them. I don't wanna think about them and what they did anymore. At least I get to rest in peace without them annoying my f*cking life anymore. Can I please have a knife?
Lana Ryuta
Of course, here you go.
Lana hands the knife to Kika. Kiyana has already finished cutting her hair.
Kika
Thank you for wasting your precious time listening to my story. Can you help me do one final request?
Ao Tsubame
Okay, what is it?
Kika
Can you tell everyone that I have always forgiven them despite being bullied all my life? I have always telled myself that they hated me. Even though it is true, I have always hoped for their happiness. Thank you. Thank you for helping me.
Kiyana Ishihara
You are welcome. Rest in peace, Kika-chan.
Kika stabbed herself and smiled in her final breath.
Kiyana Ishihara
*sighs* Rest in peace, Kika-chan...
Lana Ryuta
I hope that they will repent on their sins towards her, that's for sure.
Episode 2 : A Mother's Day
The sun was shining brightly over Hilma City on a Mother's Day morning. While waiting for any morning customers, Kiyana was nervous.
Ao Tsubame
*sighs* Kiyana... You still hate this day?
Kiyana Ishihara
Wh--What? Nonsense! Of course I liked this day! It's Mother's Day, who would hate this day?
Ao Tsubame
I don't know, you?
Kiyana Ishihara
What? No! No, I--
Ao Tsubame
Enough lying. I know that you hated this day because of you are scared if there would be some mothers that would come here to commit suicide because of their children.
Kiyana Ishihara
It's just--
Ao Tsubame
Listen, some human children in this day and age are selfish or ignorant, but not all of them are that way...
Lana Ryuta
Yo, Ao nee-chan! Yama-kun said that he wanted to meet you guys!
Ao Tsubame
Oh, okay, let's go, Kiyana--
Before Ao was able yo finish her words, a young girl came rushing in. The young girl took a knife at the countertop and tried to slash her throat but was stopped by Yama.
Yama Ishihara
Whoa, slow down, kid.
Lana, Kiyana and Ao rushed to Yama and the girl.
Lana Ryuta
What are you doing here? I thought you were waiting at the kitchen?
Yama Ishihara
Well, you guys were too slow to come to the kitchen, so I came. I thought you guys were watching the front door?
Yama Ishihara
Aneki, you okay?
Ao Tsubame
Hey, little girl. What is your name?
Rin
My name is Rin. I want to end my life now. Please... *continues sobbing*
Ao Tsubame
Err, why though?
Rin
Because I've been a drag to my Mother. I am useless. I should have never been born if I am like this to my mother!
Lana Ryuta
Why? You wanna tell us before you end yourself?
Rin
I am 15 years old. 2 years ago, my parents fought, my Dad left us and my Mom had to take care of us. I am the eldest from five siblings. I never really helped my Mom to take care of my siblings at all! I never once helped her do anything except making her day felt WORSE! *continues sobbing* Before my Dad left us, he r*ped me, and beaten up my Mom. Why is our life like this?! Why were my Mother and I was even born to be like this?! We didn't even asked to be like this! I should've never exist if I knew that this would happen! Don't you get it? My Mother's life gets even worse because of me! ME! *sobbing*
Rin
S--So, since it's Mother's Day, I want to make her happy by dying. Can you let me go, now?
Yama Ishihara
Are you sure about that?
Kiyana Ishihara
Just--Let her be.
Yama let go of Rin's hand.
Ao Tsubame
Rin-chan, we are so sorry for your inconvenience just now. May you rest in peace...
Rin hesitated to slash her throat.
Lana Ryuta
You know, you can still change your mind. There's still time.
Rin slashed her throat and died peacefully.
Suddenly, a woman came in.
Rirry
Rin! Where are you?!
Rirry
You! *points at Lana* Have you seen a young girl with a brown hair and beautiful blue eyes came here? Her name is Rin!
Lana Ryuta
Err, she is right there.
Lana took the woman to the room that places the corpse to be ready before the funeral.
Everyone came after a while.
Rirry
N--No! Rin! My baby! Why? *sobbing*
Lana Ryuta
We are truly sorry for your lost. She hoped for your happiness.
Rirry
How can I be happy when my 'happiness' is gone?!
Ao Tsubame
We are so sorry, ma'am, but it's her own choice. We can do nothing about that...
Kiyana Ishihara
*flashbacks came through her mind*
Yama Ishihara
*hugs Kiyana*
Revision : Aneki means Sister
Episode 3 : Trouble
Two months have passed since the incident on Mother's Day.
Yama Ishihara
Aneki, I think today is Neha-sama's birthday.
Kiyana Ishihara
What? *checks on the calendar*
Kiyana Ishihara
Oh, it is. Oh, no.
Yama Ishihara
If today is Neha-sama's birthday, then I hope that she is in a good mood. *stares at Lana*
Lana Ryuta
What the-- What? It's in the past! Why won't you ever let bygones be bygones?
Yama Ishihara
Well, because it happened once, I mean, who would want it to happen again?
Lana Ryuta
How dare you. Come here and let me punch you in the face!
Yama Ishihara
What? Why would I let someone mess with my pretty face? How am I gonna get a girlfriend if I let them do that?
Kiyana Ishihara
Okay, okay. That's enough, both of you. No fighting on Neha-sama's special day. We've talked about this.
Ao Tsubame
Yeah, guys. You guys are like so meant to be. I think you guys should go out on a date or something.
Kiyana Ishihara
Ao-chan... You've gone too far. *smiles*
Ao Tsubame
Oh, right, s--sorry...
Lana and Yama looked at each other.
And they looked away with their face in bright red.
Neha Kirara
What the heck are you doing flirting in my café?
Kiyana Ishihara
What? Why would I let my brother flirt in here? I mean-- *stares at Yama*
Yama Ishihara
Oh, sorry, Neha-sama. Why would I flirt with Lana anyway? I mean, there's plenty of cute 2D girls out there, right?
Lana Ryuta
*whispers in her heart* "I knew it. He would choose 2D girls over me."
Neha Kirara
Huh, stop giving yourself some 'fake hope' because... they don't really exist.
Yama Ishihara
Uhh, y--yeah...
Ao Tsubame
Neha-sama, Happy Birthday! We hope that you will be happy for the rest of the year!
Neha Kirara
Oh, right, I forgot that today is my birthday.
Ao Tsubame
Oh, that must be the cake!
Kiyana Ishihara
What? Since when did you order the cake?
Ao Tsubame
Err, when you guys were arguing, I ordered a cake online!
Yama Ishihara
But, isn't the delivery too fast? It's only been a few minutes.
Neha Kirara
*whispers in her heart* "I sense someone dangerous."
Neha Kirara
Ao-san, wait! Don't open the door just yet.
Neha Kirara
It isn't a cake delivery.
Kiyana Ishihara
What? How did you know that? She hasn't opened the door yet.
Neha Kirara
Tch! Come back here, Ao! Hurry!
Ao Tsubame
Ohh, okay then--
Ao looked behind her back.
Ao Tsubame
K--Kagé? What are you--
The man covered Ao's mouth, shot the wall behind Kiyana, and ran out the door.
Neha Kirara
*whispers* "Tch! My plan is ruined! Why has I not predicted that earlier? 'Someone' is messing with me!"
Yama Ishihara
Aneki! Are you okay? Lana-chan, Neha-sama, what about you guys?
Kiyana Ishihara
Yeah, I'm fine.
Neha Kirara
Yeah, come to my office, quickly.
Yama looked at Lana who were still on the floor.
Yama Ishihara
Lana-chan, let's go. You are okay, right?
Yama noticed a tear on Lana's cheek.
Yama Ishihara
You don't have to worry about Ao-san. She will be fine. *smiles*
Lana Ryuta
It's not about Ao-san.
Yama Ishihara
Then? What are you crying about?
