|| March 22.
“Still sleeping, huh?” asked someone who happened to see him leaning his head on the table in front of the computer that was on.
“Excuse me, dude.” That person is so cold, her footsteps cannot be heard by everyone.
Her nickname is ‘flower of death’. They give her such a nickname because she will be overprotective and can even sacrifice other people's lives for the people she cares about. Besides, because of her dark red - crimson hair color.
There is never a smile on her face, her expression is stiff, and rarely says anything. She must give something in an envelope, which contains important things.
It's not that easy, foolish.
Apparently there is someone who is pretending to sleep. He stretched his body and looked at his desk after realizing the girl had just left his room. He restarted the computer which had shut itself down, maybe would ignoring what he got.
A love letter envelope? Seriously, this is childish.
*he smirked.Looks calm, but he is actually a ‘school assassin’. Doesn't say much, but he has done all of his mission to annihilate his victims. Some people are afraid of him, some are attracted to him, and some don't care about it.
He usually wears his uniform chaotically, not wearing a formal uniform. Wearing only a white wrinkled shirt with short sleeves, buttoned open and wearing a t-shirt.
He turned around for a moment when the door to his room had been closed.
Ah, who else are you?!
“Who dares to give this love letter to me?!” unintentionally, his emotions overflow.
He thinks this is childish, after all he has never been interested in having a relationship with anyone or dating. He turned his seat towards the door and found me standing in surprise.
As usual, I'm wearing my ‘Gakuran’ uniform¹. Well, I know I'm not a boy, but I won't change my uniform like other girls. The color of this uniform really resembles my dark black hair color.
The most striking feature of me apart from the different uniform is the eyepatch I'm wearing on the right. Somehow they are interested in my appearance, but I always reject their confession for the same reason he has.
Why is he even shouting at me?!
“Don't ask me, idiot. I just came to see you. But, please… accept this.” I no longer pay attention to him, somehow I feel nervous all of a sudden.
I have to give this envelope immediately. I didn't budge, he walked reluctantly toward me to accept what I gave.
“…Ah, thanks~” without saying goodbye, I immediately left the room and slammed the door.
Looks like he's seriously observing the two letters, good job ‘red spider lily²’. I'm also very proud of the drama I did in front of him, fufufu~
“Hm…” he muttered incoherently while holding what he got.
Meanwhile, I won't stop watching him from the window of his room secretly. I know he'll be curious about what's inside the two envelopes.
What is the purpose of them giving this to me? Even the first sender didn't write her name.
Suddenly he turned quickly towards the window of his room because he realized something. No one is spying on him, no one is passing by either. Because he didn't really care and indulged his curiosity, he glanced cynically and looked back at the two envelopes in front of him.
Are they… really interested in me? Ah, fucking bastards~
For a moment, he stared intently at the envelope with anger.
What's in it?
I'm still watching him seriously and secretly. Actually I'm with the ‘death flower’ girl, without any comments she is also waiting for that guy's reaction.
This girl, aka the first person to give him a gift isn't that observant and cares about what he would do.Wait, what's with that face? How ridiculous, a ‘school assassin’ seems to get nervous too when getting a gift like that. Even his face is red. His eyes are sparkling, I'm sure his heart is beating fast.
Well, we didn't give anything important in the envelope, it wasn't even love letters. We jog to class. No longer observing what he's doing, since he's already surprised, I hope he'll get emotional. We made it.
Author notes:
About the last paragraph, I intentionally didn't tell the contents of the two envelopes. The first letter was from the ‘flower of death’, there are no words, except for a mocking concept drawn. The girl drew it herself on the paper she had folded. Maybe the picture I mean is like ‘>:p’, she deliberately didn't write her name so as if the sender was too nervous for that. Meanwhile, the second letter is from ‘me’. My letter says ‘I hate you’. ‘I’ added my signature and name on the back of the envelope.This story is based on the author's experience, on my friend's birthday. All reactions and incidents are exactly the same, including the setting and character depiction. To be more precise, we were at school. My friend who was having a birthday at that time was occupying the school health unit.
It was my friend's idea but I totally agree. If you are inspired to cheat on your friends of the opposite sex, you can use this idea. But please don't use my story or edit it, or even repost it.
Then about the two foreign terms or names in this story, namely ‘Gakuran’ uniform and ‘red spider lily’.
Gakuran (学ラン), is the school uniform for boys in Japan. The color of the uniform is black and the cloth is quite thick, they also wear white shirts inside. In general, this uniform is used by the students of middle school and high school.
Red spider lily, is a red flower that has many petals and a unique shape. These flowers are not uncommon in Japan. There, that flower is a symbol of death. If you watch some anime, especially the action or supernatural genre, flowers are usually shown. More precisely when a character dies, the flower will replace them and signify that they have died.
I hope you can understand all of this and read one by one until the end. Also, this story is just a 'one shot', for my ‘friend’ who is celebrating his birthday according to the date I wrote at the beginning of the story. Thank you if you read the whole thing, it means a lot to me.
