childe jolt awake due to the alarm practically screaming at him to get up. "w-what,,?" he remembered everything from yesterday. he got up slowly and went to school,walking like a snail, not in the mood to actually go to the school.
his eyes widened when he looks forward at the school gate. he ran over to it as fast as he could. "d-diluc?" he poked the said boy's cheek. diluc looked at him with blank eyes. "uh yes do i know you,," childe was surprised to say the least. "you,,dont recognize me? we met yesterday !" but the look on the red haired boy was clear that he have never seen the ginger before. childe could feel a pang on his chest. how could diluc forget him? most importantly how is diluc still here today?
"u-uhm i just transferred today though,," "but-" then the security guard walked up to them. "what are you two doing still standing here?! go to your class !" they both apologized and head to the classroom. "uhm why are you following me?" diluc asked,seeing the ginger is walking next to him. "ah our class is this way,," childe's face was obvious that he's upset. who wouldn't be?
as soon as they arrived, childe was scolded by the teacher and the day went like yesterday with diluc introducing himself exactly how he did the previous day. childe decided to check the date. 15/03/2016. oh, it was yesterday's date. maybe he was dreaming? maybe diluc really didnt die and he can avoid him from dying today?
today they went home together again like last time except this time they didn't stop at any cafe, straight to diluc's house. childe felt happy to see the other boy is well and alive, his hand is warm, his face is bright with a smile. he decided to not take the route that requires them to cross the road. as soon as they arrived at diluc's house,they talked for a bit before actually letting eachother go for the day. as childe turn around to walk away with a smile on his face, the feeling came back. the sickening feeling. then diluc's scream was heard from inside the house. he quickly turn back to the house and went over the gate and broke into the house.
there it is. there's blood everywhere around diluc. diluc is dead. again. with his throat slit opened, blood still pouring out of his throat. childe shakily pulled out his phone to call the ambulance. as soon as he's done with that, he went over to diluc's body. he held the boy's head in his hand. "hold on o-okay help will arrive please stay alive diluc. you can't go yet, this must be another nightmare, like yesterday! please wake up please i want to wake up please please." he begged. then he decide to see if diluc is still breathing.
his eyes shook. his hand is shaking worst than before. his whole body is shaking violently. he's hitting his head over and over, the feeling is too overwhelming. he backed away from the body sobbing like crazy, still hitting himself. tears fall out from his blue ocean eyes. it all fell onto the cold hard floor. "no diluc! please just wake up ! dont die please! please! I WANT TO WAKE UP FROM THIS NIGHTMARE PLEASE! GET UP AJAX GET UP GET THE FUCK UP!!" he screamed while hitting himself harder and harder with his visions and hearing blurring. he could hear somebody talking and holding him to prevent him from continuing to hit himself.
"please calm down sir! sir! stop it please!" the voice said over and over with childe still turning around violently, trying to shake the staff off. the staff didn't give up and eventually childe quiet down. "it's okay kiddo,, it's okay, you'll be alright." the staff whispered to him while patting his back slowly, letting the boy wet his shirt with tears. childe's vision suddenly blurred and in the end everything turns black.
