Chapter 1: Cold winds

It was early in the morning. I just couldn´t feel the warmth of myself anymore. It was cold and snowing every day since I could remember. I lifted the pillow off my face and looked at the time. It was 20 minutes until class started. ¨I guess I should get ready then.¨ I thought. I get off my bed and went to the bathroom. I took a little piss and brushed my teeth. It´s just like any other day. The same routine, The same classes, The same feeling of how much I hate my life.

I got dressed in my grey sweater, jeans, boots, gloves, and my beanie. I grabbed breakfast out of the cabinet and walked out of my apartment. As soon I opened the door the cold breeze hit my face and my fingertips let go of the handle. I mean, school is just down the road so I shouldn´t really run I have plenty of time. I watched as the other students walked to school as they talked to each other. I'm glad I have no friends. They will just slow you down from doing anything. They will just use you.

I walked into class and everyone was just sitting down in their seats. I sat in mine at the back of the class where nobody is really at. The teacher walked in and wrote on the board. It was Friday and I am glad it is because I don't have to do shit on the weekends. On Fridays in class, we could do anything we wanted. I just mostly read manga on my desk ignoring the fact people are talking about me. Hours passed by and school was over. Thank god it is so I can go back home.

I walked back home slowly because I don't feel like walking tiredly. Then I hear a loud crash in an alleyway. I froze and stood silently. I felt coldness climbing up my skin as I stood there scared. I looked over there in the dark. I was just stupid and brave enough to just walk into the alleyway. I looked around until I see a knocked over trash can. I sighed. I picked it up and put the lid on it. Then thats when I saw something in the corner of my eye. It was like a red blob. I looked over and it dashed right onto me. I fell and tried to get back up but I couldn´t. then the blob covered my face then everything went black. I woke up in the hospital lying on a bed with cords up my arm. ¨W-where am I?¨ I said. A doctor walked in and he heard me. ¨You are in a hospital. Someone found you unconscious in an alleyway.¨ The doctor said. I looked around. ¨Oh...¨ I said under my breath quietly. After a day in the hospital, I was walking down the sidewalk to my house until this happened. ¨Arekkusu! Wait up!¨ said, someone. I looked behind me and saw Kārī. Kārī is a popular girl in my class. What does she want...¨Hey Aekkusu! Where were you?¨ Kārī said. ¨I was in the hospital because I was unconscious¨ I said. ¨O-oh, well are you alright!?¨ She said. I nodded. ¨Anyways I gotta get home...¨ I said. ¨Ok! See ya later!¨ She said while running in the opposite direction of me. I sighed and continued walking home. I got into my house and I felt the warmness of my house. Ah, it's good to be home again. I got inside my apartment fell onto my couch but it didn't feel comfortable.
