Looking out, the time leaper felt anxiety bubble up inside him. With his trembling hands that were getting clammy, he tried his best to look strong from those cold and bored eyes.

Right in front of him, or them, was the one and only suicidal maniac sitting on a random bench in a particular park, wearing a scowl that's sending shivers down their spines.

He was not the only one nervous and scared, the other males next to him were too. They knew how the girl gets when she's angry, so they wouldn't like to get on her bad side for their whole lives. Especially since someone special to her just passed away.

On the way to this park, they were trying to get the girl to speak. Trying any topic– spouting random nonsense, just to get her to talk from this awkward, tense silence. They avoided talking about a certain girl, knowing she won't like it and just kill them on the spot.

Fidgeting in his position, Takemichi furrowed his brows together in both concern and uneasiness. With his clammy hands fiddling together, he was standing next to his partner, Chifuyu, who was also fidgeting in nervousness.

Mikey, who was the most nervous one out of them all, decided to speak this time. But Draken knew better and slapped his hand over his mouth to shut him up.

And with what seemed like an eternity, they finally heard her voice. Surprise filling up their stomach with a hint of anxiety, they straightened their postures and turned their whole focus to her again.

"So. What did you all come here for?"

'so straightforward..' Takemichi flinched from how cold her words were. Opening his mouth and trying to form words– he couldn't say a thing.

Luckily, a hand landed on the time leaper's shoulder. Looking to the owner of the hand, Takemichi sent a thankful nod to Mitsuya who stepped in front.

Sending a warm smile to Dazai, Mitsuya calmly answered her question.

"We came to check up on you, Samu. We haven't heard from you for a while."

The ravenette known as Baji nodded. "Yeah, I– we missed you, Osa-chan!"

"It's been a long time since we've talked. We were worried." Kazutora chimed in, holding the hem of his shirt with that said worry in his eyes.

Dazai didn't take their words to heart though.

"A long time? You're worried because I haven't contacted any of you for weeks?" A mocking grin lifted her lips up. "Please, I didn't talk to any of you for years before and you're saying a few weeks is a long time?"

"Dazai—" She cut Draken off.

"Shut up, Draken." The brunette sneered at the tall blonde before narrowing her eyes at them all. "Now, what are you all really here for?"

"we're really here to check up on you though!" Chifuyu took a step closer to her with clenched fists. "Y-you've gotten thinner, and you look so pale, Dazai-san. "

"I've always been pale, you blind bitch."

Chifuyu felt his eyes pop out of his sockets at her choice of words. The same goes for the others. Wow, the girl really did rub off of her..

"T–that's not what I meant and you know it, Dazai-san..!" He sputtered out in surprise.

Ignoring Chifuyu's words, Dazai turned her eyes to Takemichi causing him to jolt from the sudden eye contact.

"Takemichi. Talk to them and go away."

'what—' Takemichi felt confused at her words. '–go away? There's no way I can do that! I know they won't budge an inch! I mean, Mikey-kun can with him sitting on a wheelchair but still!'
