Found and Lost

Chapter 12

It was a water bed I think it kept sinking the more I moved. I looked at the weird mattress in wonder. There was a man yelling at me I think? I could hear a muffled voice getting closer. I sighed and slipped off the bed holding my head. I looked around and stumbled to a corner and went to sleep.
...

I woke up later on the sidewalk outside the mattress building. It was nightime and the stars were sparkling in the sky. Chuuya's window had a better view. Where was I? It doesn't matter I don't belong anywhere. My sister doesn't want me, and I'm sure i overstepped a boundary with chuuya. I sighed and looked around for a police building. I didn't see one nearby so I sighed ,and hugged my knees pulling chuuya's sweater over my knees. It was so cold here, and every breeze made it colder. I had left the trenchcoat behind. Some people walked by not noticing me. Then finnaly a girl I recognized walked by before stopping, and walking over to me.

"Hey what the hell its subway girl! What are you doing here? You're wearing new clothes too~ did you find your sister. You seem lost want me to show you to the train station? You look healthier than before~ come on I'll take you" the girl said grabbing my hand and dragging me.

"ah thanks but who are you?" I'm asked slightly confused.

"You looked like you recognised me before~ well then again I'm sure you can't remeber all our names! My name is kouda! Kouda Aya" she says smiling.

"Kouda" I whisper to myself.

She frowned and contined to drag me as she talked. I simply listened like before watching her as she dragged me along. Her hair reminded me of chuuya's. Then again it was fluffy my

"Chuuya's and dazai's love child" I muttered.

She looked at me confused before shrugging, and telling me all the drama of her school life. I smiled slightly as she dragged me onto the train, and sat with me.

"We going to Yokohama right? Someone said that you went there, and stayed off the train for a bit." She says smiling and patting my head. "You know you may be bigger and older than me, but I'm way more mature than you" she says huffing.

I shrug and look out the window at the sky. Kouda turned and looked at me curiously.

"So did you find her? I've been talking for awhile what happened to you?" She asks.

"I stayed with chuuya got medical help. I met my sister she hates me. Other than that I ran away. I don't really have a place to go" I muttered.

She looked at me and sighed patting my head. She thought for a moment then kissed my forehead.

"you've got this I'm sure. Just confront your problems head on! Then you'll turn out okay" she says crossing her arms and pointing at me.

I nod slightly and she smiles proudly. Then she began giving me tips on how to be more optimistic. Then lectured me about how I was always gloomy, and that isn't the way to living life. I smiled and nodded listening to her sage advice. She's 14 but she reminds me of a wise 60 year old lady. Finnaly I reached my destination, and she dragged me off the train.

"Nice seeing you again but I'm gonna go home now. Don't be all gloomy once I'm gone! Go find your sister, and work things out with her! If it doesn't well then text me over your social. Okay bye now!" She says as she gets on the train waving.

I smile softly and wave at her nodding my head. I looked around, and went up the stairs leading abouve ground. Once on the street again I walked down it aimlessly. I forgot the way to chuuya's or the agency's building. Maybe I should've had Kouda show me. She seems to know a lot for a kid. I looked down at my phone in my pocket, and pulled it out. I turned it on and typed "detective agency near me" in my maps app. Then I proceeded to follow the path to the agency. As I walked I noticed a certian shoe shop. I quickly headed inside and looked around. No one i recognized was there. I slumped over sighing, and hugging my knees. Then i felt two hands on my shoulder.

"Looking for someone y/n-chan~?" Says a sweet voice from behind my ear.

I frowned and turned to see dazai standing over me with his lips close to my ear. He smiled warmly, and lifted me up throwing me over his shoulder. I stayed still and huffed nodding.

"Hmmn? Not talking today? What did chuuya abandon you? What did you say to rile him up so much? Could it be you told everyone about our secret~" he says.

Every word he said twisted with manipulation. However they leaked with a honey like tone. He feigned innocence he no longer had. Every time his voice hits me it brings me chills. He can tell I'm sure as he seems to smile at my small trembles. Wait. Is that dazai? This situation. Feels like. FATHER-
