Life. Death. Life. Death. Two words going through my mind. I talked to Bunkyoku already, we're friends. But the bullying doesn't stop. I can't decide. Life or death? Death or life? Suicide or Not? I was thinking so much I got a migraine. I didn't go to school for a day, it was that bad.
Could I put up with this?
No.
Will I die?
...
I can't answer this.
I'm currently at home, thinking.
My head still hurts.
What was Bunkyoku trying to say? Was she hiding something too?
I couldn't tell.
I have to find out.
I still can't believe what Bunkyoku said. She was homeless, too.
~(|-|)~
The next day at school was pretty awkward. Bunkyoku was very fidgety and she didn't talk much. She wasn't as social as she usually was.
So I walked up to her in between period 9 and period 10.
"Bunkyoku, you seem a little off today... Are you okay?" She was looking down, covering her face as usual. Bunkyoku apparently could not show her face because of a scar. I've never seen it, but then again; She doesn't want to show her face.
"I've been hiding something. I'm sorry." She looked up and, for once, moved her bangs out of her eyes.
"Bunkyo-" I stopped, astonished. Her eyes were black with white pupils! Confusingly, her eyes were gray the first day of school.What happened to her?
"I know. Ugly. Don't have to express it." She looked down and sighed.
"N- No! You're not ugly! You're still beautiful! I'm just shocked! What happened?" I stammered.
"Let me tell you."
