Hanako went upstairs to the rooftop as [Name] trailed behind him, she was holding a bunch of mokkes in her arms. [Name] was tasked to change the rumors for the pink bunnies. "Um Hanako-san, is this what you're going to tell me about finishing earlier?" She asked once she realized that this might be the reason as to why Hanako is telling her to finish cleaning.
"I originally planned to wait a little longer." Hanako replied.
"Then why rush me to finish cleaning the bathroom?" [Name] raised an eyebrow at Hanako. He didn't answer her question so she just deadpanned at the apparition. "Does that mean I graduated from cleaning bathrooms?" [Name] hopefully asked him.
"Not a chance." Hanako smiled.
"Damn it."
Hanako glanced at her with a confused expression. "Do you hate it that much? What's wrong with cleaning bathrooms anyway?" He asked with a chuckle. [Name]'s mouth was hung open in disbelief, bet he was a bathroom cleaner before Hanako died and that's how became Hanako-san of the bathroom.
"I mean, I feel like a Cinderella." [Name] replied while sighing loudly.
"Well, if you're Cinderella, then I can be your Prince Charming~" Hanako winked at [Name], clearly hinting that he's flirting with her. [Name] blushed slightly at the remark but scoffed afterwards, crossing her arms and looking away from him.
"If you're claiming yourself to be one, why the hell are you making me clean bathrooms, huh?" [Name] retorted, pointing an accusing finger at the ghost boy as he opened the door to the rooftop. "You're more of a step-mother to me." She boredly said. [Name] tried to slide her hands down to her skirt to tuck them in her pockets—then she remembered that she didn't have pockets so she muttered a curse word.
"That's too bad." Hanako smiled softly at [Name], he walked towards the railings of the rooftop, folding his arms on top of the handrails while looking up to the blue sky as the white clouds slowly moving when each second had passed. The wind blew through Hanako, making his bangs sway to the side. "I look forward to it, doing something together after school, having long talks, kinda like having a friend."
"It's kinda nostalgic you know."
And [Name] realized how lonely he was for the past decades, wishing for a companion to fill in his loneliness. [Name] crossed her arms as she leaned against the pillar. "Say Hanako-kun, if you want to have long talks with someone or having a friend in particular—I'm here~" [Name] grasped the back of his clothes catching his attention. His eyes widened and looked at the girl behind him, smiling brightly.
"Honestly, a person who had been ghosted is friends with a ghost doesn't make any sense, and I realized that maybe that a ghost is much better. We may be different but I guess we have some similarities at some part." [Name] shrugged her shoulders while leaning against the railings. Their souls may be married to one another, but it's only in the supernatural part and it doesn't affect the physical world—basically the other term for that is soulmates.
