(Xin Jian : So, when am I dying for real ?
Mr. Fool : *chokes*
Author : Well, I wanted to kill you but Mr. Fool was against it...
Xin Jian : Oh... Mr. Fool, why are you against it ?
Mr. Fool : You're really troublemakers, you know that ?
Author : No, you're just too overprotective.
Mr. Fool : We're talking about dying here.
Xin Jian & Author, raising an eyebrow : So ?
Mr. Fool, facepalming : You won't die, that's all. Everybody is forbidden from dying.
Xin Jian & Author, throwing a tantrum : Whyyy ??? *roll on the floor*
Author, realizing something : Wait. I still have to kill the people that fall in love.
Mr. Fool, reading the script again : ...Seriously ?)

Xin Jian's point of view :

When I opened my eyes, I was above the gray fog.

Wow, isn't this a typical sentence for a transmigration novel, please don't mistake the genre.

I sat up and saw Mr. Fool, sipping sweet iced tea (again ?!).

He noticed that I was awake and wanted to say something but I beat Him to it.

« Mr. Fool, you do know that you seem like a psychopath while watching me sleep. »

The corner of Mr. Fool's lips twitched.

« I wanted to begin a serious conversation but it seems like it won't be possible. » He said.

Ah, really ?

Now that I think about it, what am I doing here ? I thought that I was on a boat with Klein then pirates arrived then I fainted...

Ah, so that was it.

I nodded to myself.

I also faintly remembered Mr. Fool visiting me in my dream, then I said bullshit as usual... Oops.

I feel like I drank alcohol, said a lot of things I shouldn't have and still remembered it.

I covered my mouth.

I knew it, I should make a vow of silence.

Mr. Fool broke the silence :

« Am I part of the reason why you're so sad on the inside ? »

Well, it's true that you contributed.

Wait, I just woke up less than a minute ago and you're already saying such things ?

Don't tell me this is the "serious conversation" that you wanted to have.

Did you really worry about that all this time ? Sigh...

I raised an eyebrow and broke my meaningless vow of silence :

« What are you saying ? You're so self-centered. Why would I be sad because of you ? »

(Xin Jian : Our time together was so short, Vow of Silence-chan !
Author : Huh ? Why isn't it "-kun" ?
Xin Jian : Let's not argue now. I'm mourning.
Author : Okay...)

Mr. Fool blinked.

« Then, why did I forget you ? »

I bit my lips.

« It was my fault ! I made you think that I wanted to explore outside but in truth I prefer being with you ! Please don't leave me again... »

Please...

Mr. Fool was stunned.

Oh no, I was a little too emotional. I should calm down.

« Then why did you want me to break ? » He continued.

Mr. Fool, you're really an idiot ! (I didn't calm down at all.)

I pouted and didn't answer.

I stood up, sat on his lap and crossed my arms.

Please, don't leave me alone !Where stories live. Discover now
