Chapter 1

[Morning]

At the top of a high building, someone is literally watching the morning view. People are walking, car are passing by, it was so noisy. For a normal people, they will think the view is beautiful. However, the person just said…

“Huh, a boring day again”

”Ahhhhhh, bell for lunch already rang…that was fast…” I said that in my heart…haaah, I want to study more. This is suck…

“Yuna!!!” That's my friend, Yui, called me.

“Let's go to the canteen together!” And that's my other friend, Hana, they were the best friend that I could ever had…I'm lucky to have them though, they know all about my secret, but…

Let me introduce myself, I'm Miwaka Yuna, first grade student at Seinan High School, like I said, they were my two bestfriend since middle school, they know all about me…however they don't know about one thing, that was my biggest secret, only my family knows about it, well…should I tell?

[2 years ago]

“Haaaaaah…so many homework today, I need to relax for a while first and-” I stop saying it because of my eyes stop at a poor dog waiting for its master maybe? As always, I feel sorry for it…

“Maybe I should bring it home…” I said that and come closer to the poor dog.

“Hey, want me to bring you home?” I was about to touch the dog when someone from behind talked to me

“Hey, little girl, do you know this dog?” he said. And I was shocked, I quickly stand up and look at him.

“Emm, no…but I was about to bring it home…” is he the master? I was about to apologise but he immediately said…

“Oh, you can bring it home, I'm not its master anyway” he said that with a smile.

This person quite suspicious, but nevermind…I can bring this dog home anyway…when I pat the dog, he talked to me again, but this time his voice is kinda scary

“Little girl, do you think this is a dog?” That question… I can feel that he is getting closer. I knew it! He's a bad guy!

I quickly stand up and about to run but he is way to fast. He grab my hand and push me to the wall. My back hurts. But then, I realized the dog disappeared. Did it turn into dust?! I look at the guy who is standing right in front of me. He is very scary.

“W-who a-re you…?” my body was trembling when he's smirking! I should find a way to run.

“Me? I'm not a human being” I was shocked with that kind of answer. He even looked me with those scary eyes. If he's not a human being, then who is he?

“Little girl, I need some of your life” what does he mean? Am I gonna die today? No please no…

“W-what are y-you…?” the question from ‘who’ to ‘what’… I think I might die today… He's smirking…! Again!

“I…am a demon…” Demon?! I never seen a demon before…Is he gonna take my life?!

“W-why me…?” I don't wanna die…I'm only fourteen…God, please help me…

“Because, I already pomised…whoever touch the dog, I will take the person life, and you…are the lucky one…” now I regret with my action…what should I do? I'm too young for this…

“Now…should I?” there's something appeared from his hand. Something magic…? He's really a demon…! He quickly put it in front of my face. I can feel that my life has been taken, but…it's really hurt…! What is happening?! It's painful…really. After a few minutes, he finally stop. I kneel down, I cannot breathe easily, it's really hurt. But the thing is…I'm still alive?

“Don't worry, I'm not that cruel, I only took half of your life, so that's mean, you still have time to live…but, when the time has come…you die, turn into dust and disappear from this world…”

“Yuna!”

“Uh…! What is it, Yui?” uh…I back to reality

“You haven't eat anything…” as always, Hana is so gentle…

“Nah, it's okay…I don't feel like eating anyway…” I said that while closing my lunch box. I know that they are unsatisfied with my answer, never mind…

“Then…lets go to the classroom” I stand up and look at them, they are still sitting…

“Emm, fine…” they close their lunch box and stand up. We walk together to the classroom.

When we reach the classroom…and those girls are gossiping again.

“Don't you know? Someone confessed to Karin.!” there is it…again

“What? Really?” I keep hearing the same thing, yo…

“Seriously? About Karin again” Yui looks jealous…I don't think so

“Hehh, its just a normal thing…lets go to our seat…” those gossip is the same thing so no need to care about it. Karin is popular so everytime someone confess to her, rumours as always. No need to think about it, I need to study.

And that's the after school bell ring…time to go home…haaah

“Yuna…” hmm…? That's strange, Karin suddenly call me.

“What is it, Ayane?” well, we are not that close, calling her by her first name is quite rude right? Better call her by her family name…

“Umm, well actually, I'm just thinking. Are you free? It's okay, I'm not forcing you anyway. You see, our class decided to go out together…so…” no wonder those boys like her, so cute…well, not like me huh?

Mmm…go out with classmates? Well no thanks?

“Sorry but I will pass this time, my mom will mad at me…” my mom? Is that even true…? Whatever…

“It's okay. Then see you tommorow…!” she take her bag and when to the door. I see, so many people… but I think, I prefer alone.

Since when…? I don't know. Maybe since my life becoming short? It's okay I guess…I'm happy? Probably…
