SINCE I MEET YOU

MEETING KANEKI

Another day like any other, Akira did not go to school anymore, leaving me alone, even though other classmates try to get closer, I know they are only appearances, I searched the library for something that would help me find out more about the ghouls, but nothing, this only made me I left an option, go to the CCG for information.

When I had decided to go to those barracks, something strange happened... a delicious aroma filled my nostrils, my mouth was watering, my head began to throb; following this, I again found a tragic scene, a "ghoul" was destroying a corpse, it seemed to be a girl, fear was eating me, I didn't know what to do, apparently he noticed my presence since he put aside the arm that was consuming, when I was about to turn around someone pulled me to hide, covered my mouth (I suppose to avoid screaming), while with his right hand he held my arms tightly at his sides, from his palm emitted a unique aroma, the most exquisite perfume I have discovered in my life... then he released me.

She sighed-was that close, (seriously) daijôubu?

"h-ha...K-Kaneki, how...?"

-I suppose it's a coincidence again, demo, what are you doing here?
- (Nervous) etto... nothing, she was just going to... it doesn't matter anymore, s-she was... a ghoul?

"...ha...do you know them?"

-I know something about them, demo, that's nothing, I want to know more.
-...it's not good that you know them, you already saw what they do out of hunger, I don't think you want to be next.

"...iie, a-arigato...again."

-nanimonai, be careful where you walk.
-ha... (I nodded) hai.

I had more and more questions in my mind, I was curious about those beings, about: "how is it that Kaneki knows so much about them but is not afraid of them, how many more were nearby, how to know with whom he was safe and with whom not?"; Arriving at my apartment again tormented with these doubts, I did my school work as always until night fell.

SLEEP.

Capsules, containers with unconscious bodies, boys, girls, adolescents, computers with codes, people in white coats, hospital stretchers, electric chairs, medical equipment scattered everywhere, scattered sheets, a notebook where one of them wrote, a girl vomiting, trembling, her teas took on a blue hue highlighting the veins, another boy was connected to pipes; those in the robes fed them with human flesh, normal food, they injected them with various substances, they took another of them to cut out his tongue, in less In a second one crossed in front of me, blocking my view...

END OF THE DREAM.

I immediately woke up with my heart racing, my breathing agitated, my alarm did not stop ringing... 8:55 am, it was already late to go to school, so I took the opportunity to look for a job; along the way I found a cafeteria called "Anteiku "(safe district); desperate screams could be heard, objects breaking, curiosity made me want to enter, I opened the door ringing a bell above me, a coffee plate flew in my direction, fortunately I managed to evade it.

The aroma of coffee was abundant, there were only two of the employees who were arguing, while the others were busy with other things, *Akira-chan would love to be here* I advanced in front of them catching the attention of the purple-haired girl, I sat down in front of the bar

-a coffee, onnegai.
"Hm, this is your first time here, right?"
-h-ha...etto...I'm not used to going out much (inhale deeply, sighing) ahhh...what a delicious aroma, without a doubt I'll come to this one more often...(the bell rang)
-konniichiiwa.
I saw it-K-Ka-Kaneki?
Serious-do you know each other?
He smiled-konniichiiwa,(Y)-chan.
*That patch*-etto,h-hai,koko de nani?(what are you doing here)
-I'm just visiting, demo, shouldn't you be at school?
I looked back at the coffee-that's my business.
-ahhh, I see, Koma-san, could I have one too?, onnegai.
-serve it yourself, baka.
"konniichiiwa Touka-chan, etto, is Yoshimura-san here?"
"Iie, he had to leave."

* Kaneki seems to get along well with them, it feels like a nice atmosphere, like a family... "family", onnii-chan, should I answer her letter?, demo, I need to be with onnee-chan to... I don't know where to send it *

-then I'll come later, dewamatta (see you) Tn-chan.
-(surprised) huh?!...etto...h-hai, I also have to go, I have things to do, and I don't want to be decapitated by utensils from this place, sayonara.
She nodded-hm...

***

*onnii-chan, I have so many memories of them, first: "Jun-san never changed his attitude towards us, he tried to kill me once... Eijii-san, he just played with me, I don't think he really reciprocated my emotions, not to mention that it has a charge of its own... Osamu-san, he's the only one who still has some coherence", demo...atare rare tayôni if ​​onnee-chan sends them a reply like that it will stay.*

I looked for my school supplies to again advance my work, homework and take them tomorrow. I woke up at the desk, reluctantly took a shower, now if I went to Mizakayi, much of the time I fell asleep between classes, repeating the same nightmare over, over, over and over again, without resting, as if I had to decipher something; it was time for departure, the end of school bell rang, I started on my way until...

"Miss Takahashi, can I speak to you for a moment alone?"

-h-ha...naniga waru desu ka? (something is wrong)
"He Smiled"-iie, come with me.
-he has...
"Take a seat, onnegai."

We were in an empty room, there was only one chair in front of the desk...

I had more and more questions in my mind, I was curious about those beings, about: "how is it that Kaneki knows so much about them but is not afraid of them, how many more were nearby, how to know with whom he was safe and with whom not?"; Arriving at my apartment again tormented with these doubts, I did my school work as always until night fell.

After accommodating me, he held my wrists, ankles, even the skull against it, with tweezers I kept my eyes open.

"etto...sensei, what is this?"
"what do you know about ghouls?"
-watashi, watashi wa shiranai desu. (I don't know anything)
-safe?
"Ha, why would she lie?"
-...let's test your knowledge, how many poisonous insects are there in Tokyo?
-I'm not sure, it may be an indefinite amount depending on your level of risk.
"Do you know that ghouls can't be harmed?"
-It's not proven...is it?
-correct, demo, today it will be, just look at them... (watered a bucket)
-these are yakedo mushi, do you know them?
Trembling-h-a-a-a-a-ai...s-sensei...*Why should I find out?*
"She smiled" -just wait, in less than a second other friends will join you...
-King mukade, I guess they will help you increase your intelligence, right, (Y/n)-chan? Oh, and save the best for last...
-Kyodai na shigoto: giant hornets, I hope to see you tomorrow morning in class, if you make it out alive.
I ripped out my throat-AGHHHHHHHHHH!
