Kajji-Tarra

Chapter 19: Six Days

Nharro's POV

Tari and I didn't have much to do on the ship.

I mean, I wanted to go outside. However, I didn't want to increase the chances of a fistfight.

Most of the day, we made our little dance routines and sang our favorite songs.

As we did that, a thought came to my mind.

We loved doing these things together because we weren't alone.

Every day we'd dream of both of us dancing and singing on stage doing what we love.

We'd one day join the music festival in France, make a Youtube channel full of our covers and original songs, and travel the world.

However, I can't help but wonder what could happen if we had to do these alone.

I know very well that we're inseparable, but I can't shake the feeling that we're going to be apart soon.

Is it because of Valdrin? What if it's because of the bracelets? Does it have to do with Tari's bronze aura?

The more I think about it, the more I believe that we'll be apart someday.

Hopefully not.

Anyway, it was the last day we'd be here.

I wonder what happens to our bodies here once we take the bracelets away.

I probably wouldn't want to know.

We were cooped up in our room below deck.

Because of that, Tari urged me to join her to look at the sea from outside before night came.

Who was I to argue?

The first person I was greeted by when we got out was Edan.

He didn't look that happy, but not angry either.

His face had confusion and worry written all over it.

Holding that thought, I introduced him to Tari, who later left to talk with the blue-eyed blondie girl over there.

While talking with Edan, I kept my eye on Tari in case violence breaks out.

Violence seems imminent in almost every corner here.

"You seem protective of you girlfriend over there,"

Edan said out of the blue.

I stuttered at those words and quickly changed the topic.

"Maybe. Tari- I mean- umm... Zei... is great to be around. Why are you so tense today?" I said.

Edan pulled me below deck to a storage room out of earshot from everyone.

"You and your girl are wreaking havoc on my medellia!" he forcefully whispered.

Confused, I crossed my arms.

"Go on."

"My medellia shows me how long people have left to live."

"Kinda explains the bloody aura," I interrupted.

"Let me finish! You and that girl, you two, have two."

"Rephrase please."

He pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration.

"What I'm trying to say is that my medellia is telling me Zei Kana will die in 6 days but also tells me she's going to die in 71 years. On the other hand, you're going to live 7 years but also live 68. I don't get it. You're supposed to only have one date and one date alone."
