WHY THE HECK WOULD YOU DO THAT,
[Y/N]!?  YOU KNOW ABOUT YOUR CONDITION!

My Aunt’s loud voice from the door alarmed my Uncle who was sitting beside me, he immediately got up and went to his wife’s side, wanting to calm her down.

“You’re dying! And while we’re doing our best to treat you, you’re just barging into death’s arms!” She yelled, face furious.

I gave her a blank look, eyes dull and tired of everything. I looked around the room, observing the amount of tubes and shit that was connected to me.

The amount of bottles on the table, the amount of things i have in this hospital room as if it was my own room, and the amount of things i lost because of my sickness. She spoke again, blabbering nonsense while my Uncle tried to calm her down.

I understand her frustration. Her anger, worry, and pain. I know it all. She’s feeling all these emotions because she wants me to live.

And yet i felt all those emotions because i wanted to die.

Yet the only thing preventing me from achieving that is them. Her.

Uncle already agreed, he understood that i’m tired.

But Auntie doesn’t. She believes that i deserve to live in my parents’ stead. They died protecting me, so i should at least try to live.

I was snapped back to reality when i felt her hands on my cheeks, feeling my hospital gown getting wet.

“Please. . . please try to live. At least try to live the life your parents gave you. You’re a wonderful child, [Y/N]. You don’t deserve all this temporary pain. So please. . . fight.”

And i did.

I fought for her. For my deceased parents. For my life.

“[Y/N]! Come here and read this manga! It’s so fascinating!” Ryuzaki showed me his phone, and i stared at him before drinking my medicine for the hour.

“Lend me your phone, then.” I said after drinking water, and he sat down the chair beside me.

“Why can’t you just read it on your phone?” He whined, and i shook my head at this.

“Maybe i will if you dye your hair black again and quit with the whole Kaneki wannabe.” I sneered, and he glared at me.

“Ladies say it looks hot. ” He shrugged.

“So now i have a dick?” I deadpanned, and he laughed.

“Probably.” He responded, still crackling.

“Why so?” I asked in curiosity.

“That’s because you’ve never swooned for me before. Even though i’m so handsome.” He flashed me his signature smile, winking.

I scoffed at him and threw the paper plate at his face.

“Dream on, fucker.”
