Airi's POV

After reading the mansion's history, something hit my head pretty hard. After I read the history of this mansion. Cliche...yeah...

**************************

After seems like an eternity had passed I slowly opened my blue eyes. I felt cold all of the sudden

"Thank goodness you're okay," a familiar voice transporting me back to the real world. I sat up with my head still dizzy from the hit I closely looked around. Turns out I've been sent to the hospital

"Hello there," a familiar purple hair guy waved awkwardly at me. I realised quickly that he was blind. I stared at him giving him a slight nod

" I know that we have met before. My name is Shunsuke." He smiled while Kumagami went into this room bringing in pink roses.
He put the flowers on my lap before stood beside Shunsuke ..maybe they are close friends.

"We've found you at the second floor of the mansion unconscious." He said while pointing at the roses.

"Do you like it?" Shunsuke asked me kindly. I looked at it before returning his 'gaze'.

"I can't feel anything including gratitude. But, I must say thank you for your help because that's the right thing to do." I stared blankly at the wall behind him. I don't even know anything about emotions.

He smiled sadly at me " Unfortunately, I'm aware of that."

" Why in all of the people in this world it had to be you to suffer all of this? " He mumbled quietly while Kumagami sent him a curious glance. Shunsuke lowered his 'gaze' to the floor gripping on his cane tightly

I gaze into his dull eyes trying to read his mind. But before I could do that my head seems like it was going to explode. I hold both of my on my head clutching it in pain without any change to my expression.

What did I do to deserve this?

"Are you okay?" Shunsuke flashed a quizzical expression like he knows I'm in pain.

"I'm fine." I said in monotone but Kumagami's eyes said otherwise

"I wish I could help.But, as you can see I'm blind so I can't do much." Shunsuke laughed half heartedly

I shook my head "No one is perfect. Besides, if someone think they are perfect maybe they just don't want to face the harsh truth that hid behind the illusion called hope."

His eyes widen at my words. Most probably because that's the longest thing I could said in my entire life.

Running footsteps could be heard at the hallway of the hospital. Which is ironically just outside my room.

"Airiiii!" Kirito yelled my name from outside while slamming open the door making him the center of attention. He looked at me smiling softly walking towards me. He ruffled my hair earning a glared from Kumagami.

"Thank god. You're safe. I'm so worried." he shoved a bag of fresh baked pastries to my mouth but stopped his track when he saw the pink roses on my lap. His expression turns bitter while glaring at Shunsuke who was currently sitting beside me. Shunsuke didn't noticed it of course because of his blindness. Kirito then turns his attention to me smiling cheekily ignoring the other two who were still on the room. Kumagami glared at him silently.

"You should eat this while it is still warm." He happily feed me with the pastries he brought just now. Shunsuke raise his brow.

"Who are you?" He questioned

"Same goes to you." Kirito fired back

"Well...never mind that. Maybe I should go." He smiled with a slight of disappointment in his tone. He got up and went out with Kumagami leading him.

"Hmph." Kirito crossed his arms in annoyance

I looked at him blankly "Huh?"

He just smiled at me "Nothing. Oh! You can copy my homework when you get back. By the way, I got a panick attack when I heard you were missing."

"............Why are you so nice to me?" I asked emotionlessly

He caressed my cheek "You've save me back then.. don't you remember? And besides I want to see the day when you get back your emotions. Maybe, you will be cuter when you smile."

Still hopeful....I don't have any hope...

" You're not afraid of getting hurt?" I asked while shifted my gaze to the full ceiling slowly recalling the incident of the meteor crash long ago. Kirito abruptly stopped from caressing my cheek.

"I owe you my life. So, why not protect you? I don't have anyone that I could trust beside you." He said quietly as I started drifting to a world of sleepiness.

Third person POV

Airi was sleeping soundly while Kirito took a seat beside Airi's sleeping figure. He looked at her with a sad gaze.

He looked at Airi's blazer he carefully took her phone out of the blazer's pocket. He turned it on to find Leon the white cat's wallpaper.

'So cute.' he chuckled as went through all the contents of the phone. 300 + songs, 158 HD videos mostly music videos, classmates contacts including his own, pandas, animes, various social media. After moments snooping through it he put the phone to where it belongs.

'For a emotionless kind a person, she is being trendy with her gadgets. Wow.' he relaxed a bit looking through the window

'What a nice view.' he quoted as he looked row of shops with variety of lightings hung on it as it shone through the bustling night in the town.

'Who does he think he is? Hmph...better be more careful around strangers.' He nochantly reminded himself

He decided he should head by walking silently to the door.

He glance at sleeping Airi
"Goodnight, Ai."
