“How did you sleep last night?,” Chuuya said.
Dazai forced a smile “I slept perfectly well”. He continued to eat while maintaining a normal face but was still thinking about the dream.
[What did he mean when he said that he was me, but he did mention he had a relationship with Chuuya]
“Osamu” Chuuya broke the silence “how old are you?’
“Oh, I am 8,” Shikyo answered.
Chuuya was a bit surprised Shikyo was a bit too small for an 8 year old.
{It must have been the lack of nutrients, but…}
“Do you want to go to school?”
“School?”
Chuuya nodded
“it’s a fun place where you get to make friends and learn about other things”
“Do you want me to go?” Shikyo asked.
“The choice is yours if you just want to stay home that’s fine”
{with the money from Dazai’s last life it should last a whole century, if not I might need to get a job} Chuuya thought.
Dazai’s last life was an illegitimate child of a rich businessman because he was the only child after that man died he inherited the legacy.
“It will be lonely without friends to play with you,” Chuuya added.
[I don’t need friends though, but..]
“Okay! I’ll go” Dazai said.
“I’m not forcing you, are you sure?”
[If that is what Chuuya wants, I’ll do it] Shikyo thought and nodded”
Chuuya smiled “alright, I’ll go make a call” then walked out of the room.
Shikyo got up and walked to the window he saw a little girl, the little girl looked back and waved while smiling. Shikyo was a bit surprised but waves back, the little girl soon left with her mother. Chuuya came back to the room.
“What are you looking at?” Chuuya asked.
“Nothing.” Dazai replied.
“They said you’ll be starting school tomorrow,” Chuuya said.
Shikyo nodded.
The day went very fast. Soon it was time for Shikyo to sleep. He laid there staring at the ceiling and the room that was illuminated by the moonlight and fell into sleep.
There again he saw the same man but this time he was hanging? The body was waving in the air. The only thing attached was a white cloth around the neck, his body slowly turning around…
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH” Shikyo screamed.
“Oh hey i-” before Dazai can finish a shoe has been thrown at his face.
Moments later they were calm and sat down at the platform.
“So can you now explain what you were doing there?”
“I was simply trying to kmy but I guess I forgot I was dead already” Dazai said while sighing.
“Are you mentally ill or something?!”
“Oops my bad” Dazai said with one eye closed and a bit of tongue out, his hands on the back of his head.
“I can’t stand you,” Shikyo said with disgust.
“So back to what you said last time, what is your relationship with Chuuya?!” Shikyo asked.
“Why are you so curious?” Dazai asked back.
“It’s because I want to know more about him”
“Why?”
“Well he saved my life and got me out of that hell” Shikyo said “he took care of me even though he had an annoyed look but still very kind.”
“So he really didn’t tell you anything about us?”
Shikyo shaked his head.
“So are you gonna?”
“No”
“What why”
“Oh look it’s time to wake up again”
It was another dizzy feeling as he woke up from his dream. He sat there dumbfounded. He looked over to see the clothing hanging there behind the door; it was a black uniform. Today is the day where he starts his life with school. Shikyo got up to dress and brush his teeth.
“Make sure when you're in school listen to the teachers, follow the rules, make friends, and if anyone bullies you make sure to tell me. Get it?” Chuuya said seriously.
Shikyo nodded while continuing to eat.
“Repeat what I said,” Chuuya said, arms crossed.
“Make friends…”
“Go on continue” Chuuya raised his brow.
“Bully the teachers and make rules”
“That’s not what I said!” Chuuya sighed.
“Just don’t cause any unnecessary drama”
“I swear on my very life I won’t” Dazai said.
[Wait where have I said this line before?]
