Ghost woman: "W-WAIT... ah-I can't move... P-Please s-spare me..."

Grim Reaper: "Ah~, too bad... I don't do that."

Ghost woman: "IF!! IF you spare me, I will give you my entire soul!"

Grim Reaper: "Revenge? Interesting, alright, let's do it."

Narrative: After he dropped her on the ground, the woman silently groaned in pain as she crouched down and spoke in her head.

Ghost woman mind: "Could have been a little gentler!"

Grim reaper: "But this isn't an easy decision for you, you know? In exchange for giving in to your desires, your soul will vanish forever! Not even a trace on the entire

continent! However, if you insist on me reaping your soul right now, you can still go to the afterlife rather than having your soul washed away from the universe, so...

What choice will you take?"

Ghost woman: "I choose revenge."

Narrative: He smiled and said sinisterly.

Grim Reaper: "As you wish, Chunamiis Saeko correct?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "H-Huh, yeah."

Narrative: As she stated this, the grim reaper approached Saeko. Looking down, she felt a touch on her right cheek. She looked up, shocked.

To see him stroking her right cheek, he came closer, opened his mouth, and kissed her at the lips. Saeko was shocked as the grim reaper opened his eyes and stared at her.

She pushed him and then growled.

Chunamiis Saeko: "What the hell are you doing?

Grim Reaper: "I'm putting together a contract."

Chunamiis Saeko: "What... Does making a contract have to be this way?"

Grim Reaper: "No, there are different options."

Chunamiis Saeko: "THEN WHY???"

Grim Reaper: "I just feel like it. Come."

Narrative: Saeko spoke angrily in her brain as he turned his back on her and started walking away.

Chunamiis Saeko: "F*cker sh*t."

Narrative: She began floating away in the direction of the man once she finished her thoughts. She grabbed the doll with her as she floated away. The setting is changed.

Saeko blinked her eyes as she watched people walking and chatting merrily in Japan. She then spoke in her head.

Chunamiis Saeko: "The outside world is incredibly lovely, and there are so many people that can have their own future, and I'm jealous."

Narrative: When she bumped into the grim reaper, she asked him while she was walking and considering the world.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Why did you stop?"

Grim Reaper: "Why don't you look up and see?"

Narrative: She asked in shock as she turned her head up and noticed a massive house.

Author: This is what the house is look like.

Chunamiis Saeko: "No way, Is this your house?"

Grim Reaper: "Oh yes, what's the big deal about seeing a grim reaper that also dwells in the human realm?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "It's just that I assumed grim reapers could only live in the underworld, but I guess I was mistaken."

Grim Reaper: "Of course, you're always wrong."

Narrative: Saeko was upset and started to spoke in her head as the grim reaper mockingly said that.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "I truly want to strangle him, but I can't because if I make one mistake, he might decide not to help me, or worse, he might think twice about

taking my soul. This is really irritating."

Grim Reaper: "Hey, come with me."

Narrative: Saeko followed him without saying anything, and when they both came to a room where they halted, she began to think.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Is this his room, and if so, why did he ask me to accompany him? Does he have something to show me in his room?"

Narrative: She entered the grim reaper's room, which was large and had a large bed, but was a bit dark. As she looked around, she noticed something at the bed.

and was grinning at her.

Author: This is what his bedroom looks like.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Could this be my corpse?"

Grim Reaper: "Yep!"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Considering that it has been three years, shouldn't it already be rotten to the bone?"

Grim Reaper: "You're a curious one, eh?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Did you do this?"

Grim Reaper: "Yep, I did. Are you happy? Besides, even if you weren't happy, you wouldn't want to take revenge like this, would you?"

Chunamiis Saeko mind: "Well, that's quite obvious he did this."

Chunamiis Saeko: "How did you find my body?"

Grim Reaper: " Let's just say it ain't hard for grim reapers to find dead bodies. Okay, let's get to the point; in exchange, I'll assist you in placing your soul inside of

your body once more. After this whole revenge thingy, I'll have your soul completely, so what will it be?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Umm..."

Grim Reaper: "Oh my Devil, don't tell me this isn't still good enough?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "No, it's just that-"

Grim Reaper: "What possibly couldn't I do, mnhh?"

Narrative: Saeko sighed before speaking seriously.

Chunamiis Saeko: "You'll carry out my wishes, right?"

Grim Reaper: "What makes you think I'll break my word?"

Narrative: Saying that, he vanishes and reappears in front of Saeko, frightening her, and then speaks in a terrifying and chilly voice.

Grim Reaper: "Grim Reapers don't break their word, and while I'll always be there to lend a hand, know that in return, I'll take your soul."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Okay, let's do it."

Narrative: The grim reaper said nothing, but he grinned. Saeko felt a chill run down her spine, but she kept it to herself as she asked the grim reaper calmly.

Chunamiis Saeko: "So how do we-"

Narrative: She closed her lips in horror as she witnessed the grim reaper sever his own wrist with a knife before placing it above Saeko's lifeless body.

Saeko questioned him in a stunning voice as his blood dripped down to Saeko's lifeless mouth inside.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Why on earth did you do that?"

Narrative: She noticed the wound regenerating as she stated that, which surprised her. The grim reaper then spoke in a grave tone, but there was no sound of  of pain.

Grim Reaper: "You'll be gone once we've finished taking your revenge because you need my blood in order to return to your body. Your ready?"

Narrative: Saeko didn't say anything other than a nod as he began to cast spells, and as he did so, the room suddenly began to shine. She covered her eyes.

The grim reaper said to her.

Grim Reaper: "Keep your eyes closed."

Narrative: She closed her eyes as he said it, and as he continued to cast more spells, she started to feel as though something wasn't passing through them. Then she heard

the gloomy voice of the grim reaper saying to her.

Grim Reaper: "Open your eyes."

Narrative: She asked in a confused tone after opening her eyes and seeing the ceiling.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Why am I looking up? Am I lying down? I feel something soft on my body, yet I'm meant to be standing up and facing you in front of me, right?"

Grim Reaper: "I wonder why don't you raise your arms?"

Narrative: She raised her arms and, at first, was confused; but, when she turned to face the mirror and saw her own reflection, she was shocked.

As soon as she realized she was in the bed when she looked in the mirror, she immediately got out of it, started touching her body and hands, and the grim reaper began to

speak.

Grim Reaper: "I'm sorry to interrupt, but don't you have something on your mind?"

Narrative: Saeko looked at him right away, then spoke after clearing her throat.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Oh, yes, so, what's our next step to take now that I'm back at my body? "

Grim Reaper: "The next step is that both you and I will be attending school tomorrow."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Oh, okay. Wait WHAT!?"

Grim Reaper: "My ears are bleeding from your screaming, so stop."

Chunamiis Saeko: "But why?"

Grim Reaper: "Because we're bounded together."

Chunamiis Saeko: "'We're bounded together.' what does that mean?"

Grim Reaper: "Ha, since we made a contract together, we're not meant to be apart for more than 50 minutes, since I'm at school, and we're bonded together you go to school

with me, that way we won't be dragged together, and also your bullies are there too."

Narrative: She immediately turned to face the grim reaper who was grinning at her, after hearing that, and asked in a scary voice.

Chunamiis Saeko: "How do you know that?"

Grim Reaper: "Know what? Oh, you mean how did I found out that your bullies were the one who turned your life upside down? Well, lt ain't hard for grim reapers to know

their soul's life~. Any questions before we sleep for tomorrow?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "I have one more question."

Grim Reaper: "The last question? Oh, I wonder what question you're going to ask me?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Is this something you're allowed to do?"

Grim Reaper: "To do what?"

Narrative: Saeko spoke as the grim reaper raised his eyebrow.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Is that allowed for a grim reaper to return my soul to my body?"

Narrative: The grim reaper stared at her not long till his eyes glowed red then he spoke in a scary voice.

Grim Reaper: "No, but isn't it fascinating?"

Narrative: Saeko gave the grim reaper a long, silent look before speaking in her mind.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Hmm it is clear that I shouldn't completely trust this sly grim reaper."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Okay, I'll go to school with you."

Grim Reaper: "Okay, I'll simply show you where you'll be staying for a while. I've already packed your uniform and school supplies for tomorrow."

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "How did he prepared it so fast oh right he's a grim reaper of course he might have used his magic."

Narrative: The grim reaper and Saeko walked till they arrive to a room then the grim reaper spoke.

Grim Reaper: "The room is here, so get up early because we're leaving at 6:00AM sharp."

and then began speaking in her mind.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "I can't believe I'm back in my body and attending school with the Grim Reaper, but I'm looking forward to seeing you guys again. After all, I'm

Narrative: When Saeko closed her eyes and dozed off, she spoke to herself in her mind when she woke up and turned to face the clock, which read 5:00 in the morning.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Hmm, I should probably go back to sleep. Oh, wait, I forgot I was supposed to wake up early so I can leave at 6:00 with the grim reaper."

Narrative: Having said that, she got out of bed, stood up, and went to the bathroom to have a shower after taking a bath for 20 minutes.

Grim Reaper: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you~."

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "As if you didn't mean to bastard!"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Ah well, did you cook this?"

Grim Reaper: "Well, yes, I did."

Narrative: Saeko didn't speak, simply took a bite and immediately finished the entire bowl of food in under five minutes, then the grim reaper spoke.

Grim Reaper: "We're heading to school now, so put on your school shoes. And I didn't realize you like my food so much~."

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "I'm very glad to be alive again; previously, my body temperature was cold; today, it's warm. I hope it would stay this way forever, but some

Narrative: She was pulled by the grim reaper when she was walking, so she asked him in a confused and furious voice.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Why did you pull me, what's wrong with you?"

Grim Reaper: "You were on the point of crashing into the light pole, idiot."

Narrative: As soon as she heard that, she turned behind her and noticed that the direction she was previously walking was a light pole. She was shocked to realize that if

Narrative: When she heard that, her blood boiling, and she wanted to strike him in the face for insulting and ridiculing her, but she had to keep her calm because

people were passing by. After ten minutes of walking, the grim reaper halted and crossed in front of her before speaking to her.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Wow, this school is massive, and the uniform I'm wearing is rather cute and cool; wait sh*t!"

Author: This is what the school uniform and school building looks like.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Wait!"

Grim Reaper: "What now? You're always questioning me."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Did you say yesterday that my bullies also attend this school?"

Grim Reaper: "Yep! Why do you ask?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "It's just that I'm always their favorite person to bully, and even if it was three years ago, they would still identify and remember me, which is an

issue because if they still do, how would I take my revenge?"

Grim Reaper: "Oh, it wouldn't be an issue, you know, because I have magic~."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Wait, you're a grim reaper, so of course you have magi-"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Why did you do that? You covered my mouth first, then grabbed my arm and took me to an alleyway! I demand to know why right now!"

Narrative: There was silence between them until Saeko noticed his expression, which was dark and ominous, and she swore she saw his eyes glow before he said in scary voice.

Grim Reaper: "The first reason is that you were going to reveal my identity, even if others thought you were insane, but there are some people who may be other people like

vampires and etc. Second, I took you out to the alleyway because I planned to use my power to disguise you; does that satisfy you now?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "You should've informed me about other creatures besides you..."

Grim Reaper: "Oh don't tell me you feel bad do you~?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "As if! And you were talking about disguising me as someone individual so you'll disguise me, right?"

Grim Reaper: "I won't do it till you apologize."

Chunamiis Saeko: "WHAT? I'm not going to apologize!"

Grim Reaper: "Oh really, I won't do it; all you have to do is say 'I'm sorry.'"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Ugh! Fine fine, I'm sooorrrry, there I said it, Mr. Grim, would you help me now?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Of course, you are correct; we are not that close."

Kuragari Akira: "Now let's get started."

Narrative: As he began to chant spells, her entire body began to shine, from her toes to her hair. Her transformation changed as she looked down at the ground and noticed a

puddle of water. As she glanced at her reflection on the ground, she was startled to see her face, eyes, body, and voice change. She gasped before Akira spoke to her.

Kuragari Akira: "..."

Chunamiis Saeko: "What a terrible name?"

Kuragari Akira: "No, it's alright, let's go."

Narrative: As he finished his sentence, he gestured for Saeko to grab his hand, which shocked her, so she did then she thought in her mind.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Hmm, what's up with this? First he said we weren't that close, and now he's letting me hold his hand. Maybe this is the first step toward getting

along."

Narrative: Akira began to mumble, which she heard but couldn't make out the words, so she asked him.

Chunamiis Saeko: "What are you mumbl-"

Narrative: As she was going to ask him, the two of them vanished into thin air and were teleported to an empty classroom. As Saeko let go of his hand, she looked around

the room, and Akira spoke.

Amamiya Nagi (Chunamiis Saeko): "Okay, Professor, my name is Amamiya Nagi, and I'm 19 years old."

Kuragari Akira: "Now's not the time."

Narrative: Saeko said nothing and went to the cafeteria line, where she stood waiting for the student's order to be completed. She was enraged because the two girls she

saw were her bullies and wanted to murder them, but she knew what Akira said was right, and just then she heard the cashier speak to her.

Cashier: "Um, lady, what is your order?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Please accept my apologies, Ma'am. I'd like to order 1 strawberry daifuku and 1 iced lemon tea."

Cashier: "It's fine lady and that'd be 650 yen."

Chunamiis Saeko: "All right, just a minut-."

Narrative: She paused, her expression turned to melancholy, but she didn't show it outside, as she thought in her mind.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Arghh crap! You jerk! You didn't even give me money, so how am I supposed to pay? Arghhh!"

Narrative: The cashier asked as Saeko lowered her head.

Cashier: "Lady, is everything okay? Look, I'm not trying to be rude, but you better pay up since there are still students in line."

Narrative: When Saeko turned around, she noticed students staring at her and whispering to one another then Saeko heard two girls whispering saying.

Student girl number 1: "Isn't she the new student?"

Student girl number 2: "Yeah, she's the **** who sat next to Akira."

Student girl number 1: "How shameless, and it appears she was using Akira since she doesn't have any money; without Akira, she's nothing more than a goldigger."

Narrative: She felt as if she was suffocating in her body and couldn't breathe as she heard more and more of their muttering and felt people's eyes on her, just then she

felt someone's arm wrapped around her shoulder as she looked up she was shocked to see Akira beside her then he spoke in a serious voice.

Cashier: "650 yen, sir."

Narrative: He was going to hand the cashier his money when he felt a touch on his shoulder. He looked at his shoulder and noticed

Saeko, but this time she appeared afraid, and she spoke in a quiet, calm voice.

Chunamiis Saeko: "If you pay it, I'll involve you in the mess I made."

Narrative: He was shocked when he first heard that, then he laughed and responded in a sarcastic manner.

Kuragari Akira: "Oh, haven't I already gotten myself into your mess?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Huh?"

Narrative: Saeko let go of his shoulder,he paid the cashier, and then walked away while holding Saeko's hand with his left hand and holding the food in his right.

Kuragari Akira: "Hey there's no on-"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Why did you protect me?"

Kuragari Akira: "What?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "I'm asking you, 'Why did you protect me?'"

Kuragari Akira: "..."

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: Why won't he answer back? Ah, I forgot he protected me because we made a contract, and I'm nothing more than a toy for his satisfaction.

Kuragari Akira: "Anything that you're thinking right now is correct."

Narrative: When he continued to speak, Saeko was startled and wondered if he was just playing a joke on her. But, she knows that he never plays a joke.

Kuragari Akira: "I just protected you because we made a contract, which means that we're connected together, so if anything happens to you, I'll feel it, and besides

you're nothing but a toy to play with for my satisfaction, and I'll absolutely enjoy every moment exorcising your soul after we're done dealing your revenge, so you better

finish your food, that way I'll give you a tour."

Narrative: While Akira was finishing up, he turned to face Saeko and noticed that she had lowered her head. Which he thought in his mind.

Kuragari Akira's mind: "Is she crying?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "You're right, I'm nothing more than a toy for your needs."

Narrative: As she said that, she smiled calmly at him, which surprised him more than he planned, then he spoke in a serious voice.

Kuragari Akira: "Whatever you want to eat, just eat it since I paid for it, so you could be energized, and don't worry, from now on I'll give you money, so hurry up

before I change my mind about  showing you around the school."

Narrative: Claiming that he left her alone on the rooftop before leaving, he gave her the food she had ordered and left, closing the door behind him. She looked at the

food in her hand then sat down on the floor and opened the box of strawberry daifuku and noticed 6 strawberry daifuku mochi looking so wonderful and sweet she took one

strawberry daifuku mochi then took a bite her eyes sparkled as she started to eat then she thought in her mind.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Mhmm, when was the last time I ate delicious food? Mmm, even though I knew I was nothing more than a toy for his desires, I kept my cool because

I need him. After all, I wouldn't be here if it weren't for him, and Mr. Kuragari is waiting for me better finish eating fast."

Narrative: Once she finished the six strawberry daifuku in 10 minutes, she grabbed the plastic cup of iced lemon tea and took a sip before standing up and walking towards

the exit. When she opened the door, she saw Akira with his back to the wall, as if he was waiting for her then he spoke.

Kuragari Akira: "It appears you enjoyed and finished the strawberry daifuku box; let's go now."

Narrative: Saeko said nothing but agreed, and the two of them began to walk down the stairs and into the corridor, where she spotted a few students and froze. Akira, who

was walking side by side, noticed this and moved closer to her ear, then whispered.

Kuragari Akira: "Don't be frightened; instead of chasing your fear, let your fear chase you, do you get it?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Oh, I think I understand."

Kuragari Akira: "I had a feeling you'd understand."

Narrative: With that, he backed away from her, causing Saeko to pause before resuming her walk. As she walked, he got closer to her, which startled her but didn't bother

her since for some strange reason, she felt comfortable around him, she thought in her mind.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Hmm, why do I suddenly feel comfortable around him? If I don't like him, then why do I enjoy him being around me? Ha...  I should stop thinking

about this and just focus. "

Narrative: Akira spoke as soon as he was done, showing Saeko the entire school.

Kuragari Akira: "What are your thoughts of this school?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "First of all, it's massive, second, there's a large amount of people, and third, I liked the rooftop."

Narrative: Akira asked her as she took a sip of the iced lemon tea from her plastic cup.

Kuragari Akira: "What attracts you to like the rooftop?"

Chunamiis Saeko: Oh well, let's just say that it's calm, and I notice that less students are coming up to the rooftop, and the breeze is blowing, which makes me feel

better.

Kuragari Akira: "Well, I also have a final question."

Chunamiis Saeko: "What is it?"

Kuragari Akira: "Why did you..."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well why did you what?"

Kuragari Akira: "Never mind. Let's just go."

Chunamiis Saeko: "What!? Why did you abruptly leave your question unfinished? And go where?"

Kuragari Akira: "To your new dormitory."

Chunamiis Saeko: WHAT!? B-but isn't there something you have to fill out on paperwork to tell us about your dorm?

Kuragari Akira: "Indeed, that is correct."

Chunamiis Saeko: "But how is that possible because I didn't sign any paperwork requesting my dorm and signature?"

Kuragari Akira: "Well, you don't need to do that."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Hey, what do you mean?"

Kuragari Akira: "Let's say I kind of control the principle and asked him to let you have your dorm and I prepared a bunch of bogus paperwork about you so just relax."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Let me take a guess: I'll have a dormmate won't I?"

Kuragari Akira: "Yep~!"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Ha, all right, let's go."

Narrative: Akira asked her a question as they walked to the dormitory.

Kuragari Akira: "So, were you rich when you were alive?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Oh, no, I wasn't rich; I just had an average but terrible life; how about you, were you rich?"

Kuragari Akira: "I'm rich, why do you ask?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, you asked me a question, so I thought it would be nice if I asked you the same question you asked me, and besides, you look rich."

Kuragari Akira: "Would you like to be wealthy?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Hmm nah."

Kuragari Akira: "What? Why not? Don't you want to spend a lot of money shopping, eating luxury food, drinking fancy wine, and buying a large castle for yourself?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, it would be good to spend a lot of money on myself, but it would be unnecessary for me, and moreover there's one thing that I can't buy even using

money."

Kuragari Akira: "And that is?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Money cannot buy nor bring my happiness."

Narrative: Saeko smiled at him, which he spoke solemnly.

Kuragari Akira: "Tsk! Whatever freak, we're here."

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Geez, why are you being so harsh to me? I just answered your question honestly! Okay so this is my room, yeah room 20, wait where's my own key?"

Narrative: Saeko asked, looking Akira in the eyes.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Hey where's my room key?"

Kuragari Akira: "Well, your dormmate has it; you can ask your roommate for it."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Wait, why does my dormmate have it and not me, and why didn't you ask for another dorm key with the same number dorm room?"

Kuragari Akira: "Well, because the school only has one key for each room, each student should share the dorm key with their dormmate."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, it makes sense; I'm going inside now."

Kuragari Akira: "Goodbye weirdo."

Narrative: When Saeko heard him say that, she turned around and found him gone, so she turned back to face the door and knocked. After 2 minutes, the door opened,

revealing a man wearing a uniform, and as the two of them stared at one other, the man spoke.

Man: "Who are you and what are you here for?"

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Oh sh*t, I don't know how to socialize! What do I say to him? Maybe if I tell him I'm his roommate, he'll understand, but that's not going to work.

He might become suspicious of me because he's going to have a roommate out of nowhere! Well, think Saeko! Think!!!"

Narrative: Because Saeko was sweating profusely, the man became suspicious of her, and he spoke in a dark and menacing tone.

Man: "Don't make me repeat, who are you and what are you here for?"

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Holy sh*t! He appears angry; I'd better explain before he gets really angry."

Chunamiis Saeko: "I'm your new dormmate."

Man: "Hmm really because I didn't receive any updates from the principle."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Sh*t! I knew it was going to happen!"

Chunamiis Saeko: "That's because I'm a student who just transferred here 1 hour and 20 minutes ago, and I'm sure the principal forgot to notify you about this."

Narrative: The man raised an eyebrow and then said.

Man: "Well, I'm not sure, but I think you're right, the principle may be forgetful at times."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, I hope we can get along this year."

Man: "Well, whatever. Go inside if you don't want to freeze to death."

Chunamiis Saeko: "It's not cold here."

Man: "Oh, it's freezing outside."

Chunamiis Saeko: "It's literraly 9:20am right now and It's August so it's sunny outside."

Narrative: Saying that Saeko saw the man go inside, leaving Saeko alone herself outside, she decided to go inside after noticing the door was left open. As she entered,

she noticed the hallway had a shoe rack near the door and as she pulled shoes off, she noticed a coffee table set with one classic chili hotdog and a caramel latte. While

she glanced at the room, the man started speaking.

Author: This is what the inside looks like.

Man: "Have a seat, I've got a food and a drink ready just in case you get hungry or thirsty."

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "I'm starting to behave like I did in my previous life from three years ago, therefore I'm skeptical that he made food and a drink for me. I must

change myself in order to live better!"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Thank you for the food and beverage, however I had some iced tea with lemon and strawberry daifuku earlier."

Man: "Okay, I get it. Let me know if you need anything more."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Okay thank you ummm..."

Man: "I'm Blake Carter, I'm 21 years old, and I'm the council president of this school."

Author: This is what Blake Carter look is like.

Chunaiis Saeko: "I'm Ch, er, Amamiya Nagi, and I'm 19 years old, hehe."

Blake Carter: "Okay, you may move in now or later, I suppose."

Chunamiis Saeko: "I'd want to move in right now."

Blake Carter: "Other than that, there's no need to get thrilled. Where are your belongings?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Yeah, I suppose I forgot it at home. Hehe."

Blake Carter: "How could you have forgotten your personal items when you knew you were headed to your dorm?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "That's because I didn't know there was a dormitory here in this school."

Blake Carter: "Wait, so you've never lived with a stranger in a home or in a dorm?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Yep, that is correct, hehe."

Blake Carter: "Make yourself comfortable, then."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Okay, thank you, President."

Blake Carter: "It's my responsibility. Since it's your first day of school, you are permitted to be absent today only."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Wait, really? I can skip school today, but why?"

Blake Carter: "Because you're new and since I'm the council president of this school, I'll give you a school tour."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, that's unnecessary."

Blake Carter: "Do you want to get lost at this school? As it's so massive that new students get lost here easily."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Yeah, that's because I've already been given a tour of this school."

Blake Carter: "Well, I see what you mean. Who gave you the tour of the school?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Oh, Mr. Kuragari."

Narrative: As soon as Saeko said that, Blake's expression turned dark, then he asked in a serious voice.

Blake Carter: "Are you certain it was him that gave you a tour of the school?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Yes, it was him that gave me a school tour, but why do you ask?"

Narrative: Blake snatched her arms, pinning her to the wall, as Saeko glanced at Blake's eyes, which appeared cold and gloomy, and murmured solemnly.

Blake Carter: "Be cautious in his presence."

Chunamiis Saeko: "H-huh, why?"

Blake Carter: "Well, just trust me, be cautious around him, and don't trust him."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, I'll be cautious with him and not trust him. C-can you now...?"

Narrative: Blake raised his eyebrow as Saeko uttered this, and he observed Saeko's face going a bit red, so he came closer to her face, making Saeko's face more redder

than before, and he asked her.

Blake Carter: "What's up with your red face? Are you ill or something?"

Narrative: Saying thus, Blake placed his palm over Saeko's forehead to check, as Saeko felt his warmth on his hand she thought in her mind.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "His hand is so warm, his face is extremely lovely, and his eyes seem like a puppy. No! What am I thinking but he's to close we're 1 inch away from

our faces. I should tell him."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Can you please step back, President?"

Blake Carter: "We need to go to the nurse's infirmary since your face is red and you're sweating profusely."

Narrative: As soon as Blake stated that, Saeko responded in low voice.

Chunamiis Saeko: "That's because you're standing too close."

Blake Carter: "Please speak a little louder, please."

Chunamiis Saeko: "I said that you were standing too close!"

Blake Carter: "Please don't yell, since the walls here are so thin that students may be unable to concentrate on their studies. And what do you mean by standing too close?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "That's the reason why my face is red and sweat!"

Blake Carter: "What? I'm not understanding?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "You're so close to my face, like 1 inch away, that you're making my heart beat really fast!"

Narrative: It took a few minutes for Blake to notice, and his face grew a shade of red as well, although not as much as Saeko's, before he simply stared at her, looking into

her eyes, which made her heartbeat race. The two of them just stared at each other for what seemed like an eternity until they heard the school bell ring and Blake snapped

back to reality, stepping aside to make room for the both of them, while Saeko turned away from Blake before speaking.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Oh, President, aren't you busy or something?"

Blake Carter: "Oh, I forgot I had a meeting with the council members, I have to go now, thank you for reminding me, Nagi, goodbye and make yourself comfortable."

Narrative: Saeko watched as Blake left and closed the door behind him as she was alone, she grabbed her chest then she started thinking of what happened earlier besides

the kabedon she felt suspicious of why he was frightened when he heard Kuragari, but she just couldn't find the solution as she had a headache, she saw the clock displaying

10:30am as she checked the time, she walked around the dormitory then she found a room as she opened it, she saw an empty room with an empty bed she took that room as her

bedroom as she went and laid down on the bed, she thought in her mind.

Author: This is what her bedroom looks like.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Ahh this bed is so lovely and cozy I like this room it's so quiet I'm enjoying this life, but I'm not going to be here for long, so I better make

the most of it, and I wonder how Mr. Kuragari is?"

Narrative: Saeko stared at the ceiling for a few minutes before closing her eyes as she slept for 2 hours and 20 minutes, suddenly she felt something on her forehead like a

hair strand as she slowly opened her eyes she was shocked to see Akira who was now at her bed looking at her as she was about to scream, he covered her mouth then he

murmured.

Kuragari Akira: "Don't panic, okay?"

Narrative: Saeko nodded as Akira removed his hand from her mouth; the minute he did that, she yelled loudly at him.

Chunamiis Saeko: "WTF! WHAT IN THE HELL WERE YOU DOING STANDING THERE LOOKING AT ME!? How long were you there?!"

Kuragari Akira: "Just now."

Chunamiis Saeko: "How did you get inside to my dorm?!"

Kuragari Akira: "Ta ta ta. Don't tell me you forgot I'm a grim reaper with magic?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Oh I must have forgotten."

Kuragari Akira: "Considering that you are already an elderly woman, of course you forgot."

Chunamiis Saeko: "What do you mean I'm an elderly woman?"

Kuragari Akira: "Don't play dumb; you stated in class that you are 19 years old."

Chunamiis Saeko: "OK, so what are you trying to say?"

Kuragari Akira: "Oh my devil! Do I need to explain it to you? Because you were 19 years old, which you are now 22 years old because you died three years ago at the age of

19."

Chunamiis Saeko: "What do you mean I'm 22? I'm 19!"

Kuragari Akira: "What are you talking about, your 22 yea-"

Chunamiis Saeko: "I died when I was 16, and because it was three years ago, 16 + 3 = 19, therefore I'm 19."

Narrative: As Saeko stated that, the room fell silent, and Akira remained silent as she uttered that sentence, her voice sounded sad but calm, and as the room and both of

them fell silent, Saeko spoke to break the silence between them.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, Mr. Kuragari, why did you come here?"

Kuragari Akira: "Yeah, I came here to tell you that it's lunchtime, so I thought it'd be better if I came here in person to tell you about it, but I didn't expect to see

you asleep in your bedroom, oh, and also."

Narrative: Saying that, he grabbed something from his pocket and showed it to her, and she was surprised to see a credit card, but not just any credit card, but a black

Mastercard, and then he spoke.

Kuragari Akira: "Here's your credit card for your necessities; now come on, let's go."

Narrative: As Akira was about to walk away, Saeko pulled his sleeve and spoke.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Stop! Why did you get me a black Mastercard? You know that within this card causes a lot of yen like mill-"

Narrative: Just as Saeko was about to finish her sentence, Akira covered her lips with the black Mastercard and murmured.

Kuragari Akira: "Just use it for your necessities and your lunch, okay?"

Narrative: Saeko nodded, then took the black Mastermind from her lips, placing it in the palm of her hand, and questioned worriedly.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Wait! I have a question."

Kuragari Akira: "Ha... What is it?"

Narrative: Saeko sat down while Akira stared at her, then she grabbed a pillow to bury her face in before speaking in a shy.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Is there a crowd in the cafeteria?"

Kuragari Akira: "The cafeteria is packed."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, that's a pity, I was hoping to dine in the cafeteria with the small people."

Kuragari Akira: "Ah well, there's a restaurant only 30 minutes' walk from here that serves such excellent cuisine, so if you want to dine there, I can take you."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Really? But how much does it cost?"

Kuragari Akira: "Well, it's not too expensive; let's just say it's affordable for anyone, including the poor; do you want to go?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Um, but will you accompany me, right?"

Kuragari Akira: "Yep, so what's your response?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "May I make a request?"

Kuragari Akira: "Oh, fine. I'm curious what type of request you'll make."

Narrative: The scene changes to a place like a restaurant, a small crowd of people there just taking orders just then Akira spoke in a sarcastic voice.

Kuragari Akira: "Seriously, you requested me to eat lunch with you?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "What's the problem with me asking you to come? And you agreed that I could make whatever request I wanted, and this is what I wanted."

Narrative: A few moments ago, in Saeko's bedroom.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Can we have lunch together at the restaurant?"

Kuragari Akira: "Of course."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Wait what

Kuragari Akira: "I answered, 'Of course,' which means, 'OK, I'll go with you.'"

Chunamiis Saeko: "I know what that means, but it makes no difference since I'm so happy!"

Kuragari Akira: "Whatever, let's go."

Narrative: Flashback to the present as Akira thought of that memory, he asked her.

Kuragari Akira: "Hey."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Hmm, yeah, Mr. Kuragari?"

Kuragari Akira: "Why were you so happy when I agreed to eat lunch with you?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "I was happy, nevertheless, because-"

Narrative: Saeko was about to finish her sentence until she was interrupted by a waitress saying.

Waitress: "Greetings, sir and madam. May I have your order?"

Narrative: The waitress also handed each of them two menus, which Saeko read right away before stating.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Umm, I'm going to get one set of gyoza and one jasmine milk tea with pearl."

Kuragari Akira: "I think I'll have a matcha latte and one tofu salad."

Waitress: "Okay, I'll have your order prepared.

Narrative: Akira questioned as soon as the two of them were back alone at their table.

Kuragari Akira: "You were saying, right?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Oh right! As I was saying because I have finally someone who could eat with me. That when you answered yes I felt very happy."

Kuragari Akira: "Hey, don't you have a family to eat with?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Let's just say that my family is a little complex, shall we?"

Kuragari Akira: "Let's put up with it, okay? Oh, and..."

Chunamiis Saeko: "And what, I ask?"

Kuragri Akira: "Ha... since it makes you-"

Waitress: "Okay, you two, here is your order."

Narrative: Akira was interrupted by the waitress, who set their food on the table and left the two of them alone as Saeko grabbed her chopsticks and grabbed the first

gyoza dumpling, chewing to eat it. It tasted delicious that she putted with some sauce that made the meal taste more delicious than it tasted that she ate the first

dumpling very quickly before Akira said.

Kuragari Akira: "Slow down before you choke."

Chunamiis Saeko: "But mmmrruuppph, it's so delicious, you should give it a try."

Narrative: During her speech, Saeko swallowed the meal she was eating, and Akira sighed and said.

Kuragari Akira: Furthermore, avoid speaking while eating.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Sheesh! Don't remind me, you cunning reaper!"

Narrative: Just before opening her mouth, Saeko grabbed another dumpling and dipped it in sauce. Akira, who had previously been seated on the chair, was now directly in

front of her, leaning in close to her as she stared at him in surprise and confusion before asking a question.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Why are you bending your head close to mine, Mr. Kuragari, and why are you sitting so close?"

Narrative: Although Saeko was becoming more confused, Akira opened his mouth without saying anything, which caused her to recall. " Saeko advised Akira to give it a try,

so she moved her hand with the chopsticks and put the gyoza dumpling inside his mouth while he chewed and swallowed before speaking.

Kuragari Akira: "It tastes excellent and has decent spice, but it just needs to be fried a little bit more, I believe."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Ehh~, well, at least it tastes good. Yeah, you were about to say something before, but the waitress interrupted you, so continue what you were saying

earlier."

Kuragari Akira: "Just keep eating; in any case, we'll finish, pay the bill, and go shopping."

Chunamiis Saeko: "We're going shopping, but why?"

Kuragari Akira: "For your other study supplies and any additional items you might find interesting."

Chunamiis Saeko: "How about you, however?"

Kuragari Akira: "What do you mean?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "I mean how about your school since it's almost past lunch time already?"

Kuragari Akira: "Well, well, it is only half a day."

Chunamiis Saeko: "What! When and why?"

Kuragari Akira: "While the council members were talking about something when it happened two hours earlier, Blak-"

Narrative: Saeko slapped her palms to the table and leaned closer to his face as Akira was about to complete his statement. She then shouted.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Blake? As in Blake Carter, the school's president!"

Narrative: The crowd turned to face Saeko, who then lowered her head before speaking.

Chunamiis Saeko: "A-ah sorry! For shouting and making a noise you can continue eating your food hehe..."

Narrative: She put her hands at her knees as she said that, then she moved away from Akira's face as he continued.

Kuragari Akira: "Yeah, Blake Carter, the school's president. How do you know his name?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, let's just say he's my roommate for the time being."

Kuragari Akira: "What?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "It's hard to believe, but I'm roommates with the school president."

Kuragari Akira: "Indeed, it is difficult to believe."

Waiter: "All right, it appears that your students have finished your lunch, therefore here is your paycheck."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, let's check how much it costs."

Narrative: Saeko nearly fell off her chair as she spoke in disbelief as she took the paycheck to discover how much it cost.

Chunamiis Saeko: "That costs 904 yen in total!"

Kuragari Akira: "Why are you panicking when it's just a small amount to spend, it isn't even expensive."

Chunamiis Saeko: "It is for people like me, not for people like you, whose family is wealthy and doesn't care about money, since you people simply spend money like it's

nothing.

Narrative: Akira scoffed, snatched the paycheck off Saeko's hands, took his wallet, and put his money inside the paycheck before speaking in an irritated manner.

Kuragari Akira: "Tch! Whatever, let's leave, I already paid for it."

Narrative: She stood up and walked just as she followed Akira to the front door, then she watched Akira go to an empty alley as she discreetly followed him, then she saw

Akira vanished out of thin air she knew Akira used his power to teleport then she thought in her head.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Hmph! He left me, and why was he upset when he talked to me, and he appeared offended by my comment, and why do I now feel horrible about my

statement? Maybe I was wrong about him? No no, this isn't the time to think about him! This is the time to have fun!"

Narrative: When she stepped out of the alley and onto the street, she began to think again in her thoughts.

Chunaniis Saeko's mind: "Where should I go? A supermarket or a mall? I can't decide! Hah? Is that a cafe? The name seems strange and fascinating, which makes me want to go there.

Well, I decided to check out this café!"

Author: This is what the cafe looks like.

Narrative: When Saeko approached the cafe entrance, there was a large glass that allowed her to see clearly inside. As she took a peak inside, she was captivated to find

such wonderful donuts, munchkins, and cakes, but what made her even more mesmerized was that the donuts and cakes were created as Chibi people in the full doughnut and a

designed cake with chibi people, which she thought in her head.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "WOW! That's incredible! How did the people who worked there create such exquisite donuts and pastries with Chibi characters? I want to try them!"

Narrative: As Saeko stepped into the café, she noticed people sitting and eating, and then she noticed a girl her age speaking as she approached the counter.

Girl: "Argh! I'm so exhausted of working so hard since that some employes got fired and the manager promoted me to cashier yet I'm the only one here working so hard."

Narrative: When Saeko heard that, she felt awful for that girl, so she stepped in front of the counter. When the girl observed Saeko, she was so horrified that she almost

yelped, but she was able to prevent her mouth from screaming, and she said in a fearful voice.

Girl: "Umm, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting like this; how long have you been standing there?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, just now since I reached the counter maybe 10 seconds or 5 seconds ago."

Girl: "Eh!? Just now. OMG! You're like a ghost now, I know what it's like to be scared!"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Wait, you've never been terrified before?"

Girl: "Oh, no! I'll be honest, I've always been afraid, but I try not to show it since people who enjoy bullying for their brains, life issues, and other reasons.

But no one has ever terrified me behind my back, so what do you want to order?"

Narrative: When Saeko heard it, she became enraged, but not at the girl, but at her bullies, who she had just thought about as she spoke.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Oh, is that so? Times have changed."

Girl: "Yeah, you're correct, and aside from my family and friends, you're actually the first customer to understand and talk properly with me."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Oh really?"

Girl: "Yes, people have been acting strangely lately, like if a male walks in, they gaze at me like I'm a prey and then start chatting to me and try to hold my hand."

Narrative: Hearing that, Saeko grasped the girl's both hands, which astonished her, and she murmured in a frightened but still dark voice.

Chunamiis Saeko: "How do people respond to you?"

Girl: "Ah well, they say stuff like, "Hey, why don't you come over to my home and have fun? It'll be rough at first, but soon it'll be soft and moist and you'll scream in

my bed but-"

Narrative: Saeko tightened her grip on the child's hands when she heard the girl speak painfully.

Girl: "Uh, woman, can you get go of my-y hands now-w?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, my bad, Miss...umm."

Narrative: As Saeko looked down at her uniform, she noticed a name tag. When she saw the name, she let go of the girl's hands and apologized.

Chunamiis Saeko: "I'm sorry for hurting your hands, Miss Kobayashi."

Author: This is what Hime looks like.

Kobayashi Hime: "Oh, it's all right, and if you read my name tag, you can simply call me Hime."

Chunamiis Saeko: "But, we're not that close, so I'll try Miss Kobayashi."

Kobayashi Hime: "Does this imply we're now friends?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Eh!?"

Kobayashi Hime's mind: "I didn't want to phrase it that way; it simply slipped out of my mouth."

Chunamiis Saeko: "So, she wants to be my friend? That's the first time a stranger wants to be my friend! What should I say?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Umm, um, I'd love to be friends with you if tha-ts possible."

Narrative: She stumbled and shut her eyes while she waited for an answer, wondering in her mind.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "I knew it! I wrecked my first time meeting new people!"

Narrative: She gently opened her eyes, and then she noticed something unexpected. Hime's eyes sparkled, and she exclaimed happily.

Kobayashi Hime: "Of course I'd like to be friends with you! What's your name?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, my name is Amamiya Nagi."

Kobayashi Hime: "Wow, what a lovely name! Well, I was wondering if you wanted to join me for a cup of coffee?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Hmm I'd be delighted to. But aren't you busy with work?"

Kobayashi Hime: "I mean I would be but! I'm on a lunch break right now so let me ask once more. What would you want to order?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Oh, yeah, do you have a menu?"

Kobayashi Hime: "Sure, come with me to your table."

Narrative: With thus, Hime begins going with Saeko to her table at the third floor where no one was there, pulling the chair for Saeko to sit in and pushing the chair to

make her comfortable while Hime pulls a menu from her apron pocket. Saeko asked Hime.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Where are the other baristas?"

Kobayashi Hime: "Well, let's just say the baristas are my friends, but they're busy with their other jobs, and I'm generally alone at work."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Aren't you lonely, and are there no other employees here?

Narrative: Hime sighed and stated in an irritated tone as soon as Saeko spotted Hime's attitude changing.

Kobayashi Hime: There are other employees here as well, but they're brats and act in ways that annoy me. And they always ditch work."

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Ah, I see. She's just like me."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, I'd like to have a set of toga-chan doughnut and a mocha with cream on top, please."

Kobayashi Hime: "Alright coming right up bestie."

Narrative: Hime left to prepare Saeko's order while Saeko was thinking in her head.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Bestie!? Did she just call me bestie? I have a best friend now!?"

Narrative: Her eyes began to well up with tears as she remembered what Hime had just called her and she was unable to stop them as she closed her eyes at that very moment.

Her tears were being wiped away by Akira's finger as she glanced up and noticed him seated in front of her. At that same moment, Hime started speaking in front of them.

Kobayashi Hime: "Hey, who are you, and why are your fingers touching my bestie?"

Narrative: Hime stated that in a gloomy and frightening tone. Saeko looked to Akira, who was staring at Hime, and noticed Hime staring back at him. While Saeko wondered

how to lighten the atmosphere. Akira talked to Hime in a dark and terrifying tone.

Kuragari Akira: "And who are you to call her "bestie?"

Kobayashi Hime: "Hah? That's because she is in fact my best friend dumbass."

Narrative: Hearing what Hime had just said to him, Akira instantly jumped up from his chair and approached her, his eyes gleaming with a terrible and dark look, then he

whispered to Hime in a menacing voice.

Kuragari Akira: "Huh? A moron like me? HAH! You're messing with the wrong person, foolish lady."

Narrative: He moved close to Hime's ear and said something to her that made Hime shiver all the way down her spine.

Kuragari Akira: "Well, wait till I do something to your beautiful siblings if you call me another name."

Narrative: At that moment, Saeko could sense Hime's dread in her eyes and her fury in her gaze towards Akira. When Akira was ready to continue, he felt a touch on his arm

and turned around to find Saeko looking troubled then she spoke in an upset voice.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Could you please quit frightening Miss Kobayashi and leave me alone for a minute?"

Kuragari Akira: "I'll be outside waiting."

Narrative: When Akira passed by, he murmured something in her ear, which hurted Saeko's feelings.

Kuragari Akira: "If you're really friends, you should've called her by name or by what she called you; maybe that's why you got killed. You died three years ago because you're nothing more than a person who hurts people's feelings."

Narrative: Saeko just stood there clutching her fists, trying not to weep, when both of her shoulders were touched. As she glanced up, she found Hime staring at her.

She was concerned and asked her questions.

Kobayashi Hime: "Are you okay? Did he say something hurtful to you, since you appear to be bothered by what he murmured in your ear?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Oh yes, Miss Kobayashi, I'm alright."

Kobayashi Hime: "You're not alright, bestie, you can tell me despite the fact that I'm not good at consoling people, but it's wonderful to relieve some of the burden off

your shoulders."

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Does she not get offended when I do not call her bestie or by her name? Ugh! But I can't take it any longer."

Chunamiis Saeko: "I'm not fine, I'm not fine, I'm not OK. I'm a dreadful person who does nothing except hurt people's feelings; perhaps I should have been dead already."

Narrative: Hime yelled at Saeko as she sobbed, almost tumbling to the ground.

Kobayashi Hime: "You're not a horrible person who damages people's feelings, and you may not express any emotion of concern, but deep down you care and are a decent person

no matter what you do, so let it out."

Narrative: Saeko was already sobbing when she hugged Hime. Hime was taken aback by Saeko's abrupt behavior, but she smiled and held her as she stroked her hair and

reassuring her.

Kobayashi Hime: "Shh, everything's OK, you're fine, and you're a lovely girl, a good person, regardless of what people say or do; you're a wonderful person."

Narrative: After 50 minutes of sobbing and cuddling, Saeko suddenly calmed down, stopped hugging Hime, and started speaking again, but sniffling.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Thank you for your comfort; I feel much better now."

Kobayashi Hime: "After all, we're besties now, right?"

Narrative: There was silence until Saeko said.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Yes, we're besties."

Kobayashi Hime: "Yay! But aren't you forgetting something?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Mr. Kuragari!"

Kobayashi Hime: "Who?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "I have to leave, Miss Kobayashi!"

Kobayashi Hime: "Wait a minute! Bring this with you."

Narrative: Hime was holding a bag when Saeko turned around. As Saeko took the plastic bag, Hime spoke.

Kobayashi Hime: "Well, I hope you can return to chat again, Saeko!"

Narrative: When Saeko came down the stairs to the first floor, where the customers were merely seated and eating at the table. She noticed Akira waiting on the right side

of the entry door, and as she opened it, Akira noticed Saeko outside at the entrance door, and he spoke to Saeko.

Kuragari Akira: "Well, it appears you've finished fooling around with your friend, huh? What's that on your hand?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, I guess that's my dessert from the café."

Kuragari Akira: "Did you pay it?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Yes, I di-wait, I forgot to pay it! I need to go back inside to pay it!"

Narrative: As Saeko was ready to return to the café, Akira grabbed her arm and yanked her away from the cafe. While they were leaving, Saeko was furious and thought to

herself.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "What the f*ck is wrong with him? Does he detest me that much that he wants me to go into trouble because we have a contract together? Or he wasn't

able to completely erase my soul from existence?"

Narrative: As Akira dragged Saeko away, he suddenly stopped and released a bit of his grasp. Saeko instantly pulled herself away from Akira as she glanced up she noticed a

gigantic structure with a sign that said "Sakura's Mall." Saeko stared at Akira perplexed, then Akira stated.

Kuragari Akira: "As you can see, we're at a mall, and we're here to get other school supplies and other items because it's 1:52pm and the school gate closes at 5:30 p.m. So let's

go shop before it closes."

Narrative: The two of them entered the mall, which revealed large stores all over it, and Saeko was so taken aback that she stopped and glanced around the mall

Her palms pressed on the glass, revealing within mannequins dressed in elegant gowns. She immediately went to another store and repeated the process, and then another.

Akira took her hand and led her around the store to find a store that sells other school supplies. As he gazed around

Saeko noticed a clothes store nearby as she got her hand out from his hand and raced towards it. She strolled into the apparel store.

Author: This is what the clothing store looks like.

Narrative: Around the t-shirt aisle, she noticed an outfit she liked, so she took it and questioned an employee.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Umm, hello, may I ask where the changing room is?"

Employe: "It's at the end of the trousers aisle, woman."

Narrative: Saeko was upset with the employee, but she maintained her calm and talked in a polite tone.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Thank you, Ma'am, for guiding me."

Narrative: As Saeko approached the trousers aisle and found the changing room, she stepped in, closed the door, and opened the door, stepping outside of the changing room.

She glanced at herself in the mirror immediately next to the changing room outside as she gazed at herself taken away at how gorgeous the outfit on her was then she

thought in her mind.

Author: This is what the outfit looks like.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Wow, I didn't think the outfit would look well on me! But I wish I could see myself in my true appearence."

Narrative: As Saeko turned her head around, she was startled to see Akira seated behind her. She thought in her mind.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Huh? When was he here, and how long was he simply sitting there?"

Narrative: Akira said calmly as Saeko continued to thinking about it.

Kuragari Akira: "Do you realize how difficult it was for me to search around for you hmm?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, I simply went to this store to explore around for clothes till I discovered this wonderful outfit; doesn't it seem gorgeous?"

Narrative: He only gazed at her as she turned around to show Akira herself wearing the outfit before speaking again.

Kuragari Akira: "Oh yes sure it's wonderful now come on we have to go."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, just let me pay for the outfit, okay?"

Kuragari Akira: "Yes, I'll be waiting outside the entrance door."

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Geez, he might have said something other than "Oh yes sure it's wonderful now come on we have to go."

Narrative: Saeko goes up to the counter and pays the cashier with the BlackMaster card; the employee is surprised and questions her.

Cashier: "Wow! How did you acquire that card? Are you wealthy?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, I'm not wealthy, Ma'am."

Cashier: "Eh!? If you're not wealthy, how did you purchase such an expensive card? Probably your lover!"

Narrative: Hearing what the cashier stated, Saeko coughed and responded in a kind tone.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Umm, lover?"

Cashier: "You know, the man with black hair and golden eyes."

Chunamiss Saeko: "Umm, he's not my lover, Ma'am; he's simply my acquittance."

Cashier: "Aww, that's a pity, he's so attractive, and I ship you both."

Narrative: Saeko giggled awkwardly and spoke to the cashier.

Chunamiis Saeko: "We don't like each other, and I'm not his type."

Cashier: "Well, lady, I understand; here you go, and have a wonderful day!"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Thank you, Ma'am, and have a wonderful day, as well."

Narrative: As Saeko noticed Akira standing at the left side of the entry outside, he began walking, and Saeko followed behind him. Akira spoke to Saeko.

Kuragari Akira: "Why aren't you walking next to me?"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, I'm OK following behind you instead, Mr. Kuragari."

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "You jerk, why would I walk next to you?"

Narrative: Saeko smiled, but in her mind she was raging with flames, unaware that she was emitting a dark aura that let Akira sense it, but he chose to play along as they were walking Saeko caught something in her eye as they both walked. She noticed a bookshop and instantly went inside.

While she glanced through the books, she noticed one named "Demon Love Spell," which caught her interest. She decided to purchase it. She also spotted a book that taught

French, and grabbed it with her as she made her way to the cashier. As she approached the cashier, she noticed someone outside the glass displaying inside and outside the

bookshop, which made her fury boil. It was her bullies she saw them shopping, which made Saeko want to dash towards them and murder them, but then she heard the cashier

calling her.

Cashier: "Miss!"

Chunamiis Saeko: "What?"

Cashier: "I called you twice now, miss."

Chunamiis Saeko: "I'm very sorry, Ma'am. I was just thinking of something."

Cashier: "Ah, I see. Sorry if I disrupted your thoughts, miss."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Oh no, Ma'am, it's alright, no need to apologize."

Cashier: "You're such a sweet young lady; I'm sure your parents are really proud of you."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Haha... yep, they are; do you accept credit cards?"

Cashier: "Of course, sweetie."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Thank you, Ma'am; here's my credit card."

Cashier: "Wow, it must be lovely to be wealthy."

Chunamiis Saeko: "No, it isn't."

Cashier: "Why so?"

Narrative: Saeko sighs and says, tiredly.

Chunamiis Saeko: "Let's just say that it's nice buying everything that you ever dreamed of but it doesn't bring me my happiness and money can't buy me happiness nor love."

Cashier: "I think it makes sense, and I'm glad you're not like the rich people who spend a lot of money and are greedy."

Chunamiis Saeko: "It's better not to be like those rich people."

Cashier: "Yes, young girl; here's your credit card and your books; have a nice day, young girl."

Chunamiis Saeko: "Have a great day, cashier."

Narrative: After Saeko received the plastic bag from the cashier and exited the bookstore, she looked around to see if she could see her bullies, but they were nowhere to

be found. She was enraged in her thoughts.

Chunamiis Saeko's mind: "Damn*t, I lost them. If they had stayed in that same position, I would have made the move and tried to be their friend so that I could murder them.

They were there but didn't stay, so the next time I see them, I'll surely succeed with my plan!"

Narrative: After Saeko cooled down and decided to just shop while she could before Akira catches her and scolds her every time, she noticed a shop that sells fruits and

veggies, so she went in and looked about, then took 2 potatoes, 4 hot peppers, 8 carrots, 16 cauliflower, and 4 broccolis. As Saeko kilo them. She placed them in a plastic

bag before walking up to the cashier, handing her the plastic bag and pulling out her BlackMaster card. The cashier was taken aback and asked Saeko a question.

Cashier: "How on earth did you obtain such an expensive-"

Chunamiis Saeko: "Well, Ma'am, just swipe the card and give it back to me, and please give me the plastic bag."

Cashier: "O-oh, okay, miss. Sorry if I made you exhausted; you must have been questioned about how you got it."
