He's no longer human for the tainted sorrow

Chapter 24

BLOOD

"What are you
doing here again, my dear?"

"Yarè...yarè.. im meeting you quite frequently these days huh?"

"Yes my child. You are! May i know what you feel before meeting me?"

"Hmm? I never thought about it. But lets see.. i feel dreadful? Better say i feel like im dead."

"Oh i see! And the reason is that crush of yours eh?"

"Crush? Pffttt... what crush? Hahah.. yeah.. its because of my so called crush."

"Stupid young man! You better wake up before your friends bury your dead corpse."

"What a pain! Well.. see ya my lady!"

"Mmm... where am i? Its terribly cold!" Dazai muttetered out with a hoarse voice.

He looked around the place and realized that he was in the hospital AGAIN!

"What is it huh? Am i in a drama serial or something that i end up in the hospital after every few days hmm?" Dazai shook his head in disapproval.

"Its quiet over here. Its the midnight i guess. All i can hear is the sound of beeping machines and distant ambulances." He said these words and tried to look for somebody in the room.

His eyes caught the sight of the machine present right beside his bead where his heart beat was zero. Yet he was squirming around all alive. He touched his own chest and yes it was correct. His heart was not pumping anymore however he suddenly felt a slight BADAM against his rib cage and then here it was.

He got his heart beat back again. His body started getting warm again. And he felt cozy in return.

A beating heart is a blessing indeed. He thought to himself. But now dazai was curious. He wanted to know what was wrong with him. How can a being be alive without a heartbeat. How  would he come back to his senses everytime. And why wont he die?

"Ah.. i better get out of this room. I cant believe that nobody is present with me. Not even chuchu. Are they gone to arrange my funeral?" Dazai grabbed the handle of the door.

He opened it and took some steps.

"Hello? Chuuya? Atsushi? Kuniki?" Dazai whispered. He cautiously stepped further and was now walking slowly in the corridor without his slippers on.

"Guys where ar-" dazai was left all bewildered. His eyes were shot open. Because the scene infront of him was simply unbelievable!!

There on the benches and chairs were all his friends. All clearly worn out and sleeping miserably.

Kyoka's head was on kenji's lap and kenji was in return resting his head on ranpo.

Ranpo was sleeping peacefully and wow! Poe was sitting beside him aswell.

Kunikida's diary had slipped out of his hands. It was pretty obvious that he had been trying not to sleep but failed.
