GAAAAAH IM SO HAPPYYYYYYYYYY
PLEASE JUST ENJOY THIS AND LET ME SCREAM IN THE BACKGROUND AAAA--
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Are you sure you okay?"
"Yes"
"Alright... please, tell me if you need anything. I'll be leaving now"
Higuchi left the room, leaving Akutagawa alone. He always does it. He pretended to be okay around other people, but when he's alone, he would close his eyes and grit his teeth, holding his guilt and anger.
And that's what he did. He closed his eyes and grit his teeth, his breathing shaky. 'I knew I shouldn't have left... I knew it...' he thought to himself. Eventually, Akutagawa calmed himself down. He leaned towards the sofa he's on and sighed.
'I miss you...'
He stood up from his seat, and walked out for a walk. Akutagawa wasn't going anywhere in particular. He just likes going somewhere random.
It was what you always do.
Without realizing it, he was heading towards a pretty crowded road. Some people sees him, and ran away. He sighed. When you walk beside him, people would greet him as well. But Akutagawa knew damn well they were scared.
As Akutagawa approached the crowd, they turn back and ran away. However, he can't help but notice a girl who looked confused, scanning the faces of everyone who ran passed her. Her face lighten up when she saw Akutagawa walking towards her.
The girl has (HL) (HC) hair with (EC) eyes, very similar to his lost lover. Even she has the exact same pendant his lost lover has. Akutagawa's eyes widen upon the sight of the girl. Unconsiously, a name slipped past his mouth.
"(FN)?"
The girl turns her head towards him, and smiled softly. She approached him slowly, and asked; "excuse me sir, can you help me?" Akutagawa was surprised by her voice. It's exactly the same as his love.
But he knew, she's gone. No matter how the same she look with his childhood lover, he knew this is a whole different person. "If I help you, you'll have to join the Mafia" Akutagawa said blankly. "But of course" she giggled.
"But once you help me, I'll leave" she added. Akutagawa looked a little confused by her statement. No one dared to oppose him like this. "It's not that easy. You do as I say, and I'll help you" he threatens. The girl seems unusually calm infront of him, unlike most of the other people.
"I wish I could. But I can't. So will you still help me? I don't know how long it'll take for you to help me, so maybe I can be of use for a long time" she said. Akutagawa sighed in defeat, and asked; "what do you need help with?" And the answer, was far than what he had expected.
"I need to go to the afterlife"
"...what?" "You see, I'm already dead. What you see right now, is but a spirit. A ghost, if you prefer. People can still see me though. They just can't touch me" she explained. Even after her explanation, he still couldn't believe her.
"Prove it" he ordered. "Grab my hand" she replied, offering her hand. Akutagawa hesitated at first, but he's the one who need proof, so he has no choice. He grabbed her hand, but to his surprise,
his hand went through.
Slightly surprised, but still not convinced. "You're using an ability aren't you?" He asked. The girl laughed, leaving Akutagawa even more confused. After she calmed down, she said; "no no no. My ablity is called Dancing Girl of Darkness (Yami no Maihime) [闇の舞姫]. I'll show you when I'm ordered to kill. Oh, but maybe this will make you believe me?"
"I'm (FN) (LN), the sole daughter from the director of the (LN) Company. I died September 23rd, 2016. I used to have two abilities, Rashomon [羅生門], and Mortal [人間], but are somehow replaced. I have a childhood friend, who now joined the Mafia, and lived with him for seven years. We have the same ability, Rashomon"
Shock.
That was all Akutagawa felt.
"I need to find him, and make sure he can really let me go. I can't calm down unless he really let me go. Poor him... I'm sure he's sad... but he have good mask. He can hide his true emotion from other people"
Akutagawa wasn't listening.
He couldn't.
The man she was looking for is in front of him.
Yet she couldn't recognized her.
Why?
Why can't she?
Is this the reunion he was hoping for?
