My Life Before I Died

Journal 20

        If you could see my face right now, you would see the biggest smile ever! Why? Because I took care of a sick Shinto! Yep, Shinto got sick. Well not cold sick, but that time of the month sick. Yes, that time of the month when Shinto and Myuesaki want to kill all of man kind cause their bleeding out below. That time of the month when Kyle and I hide under our beds cause were scared out of our minds. Anyway, the day before this happened Shinto was acting weird. More weird then she usually is. She was quiet. Shinto is never quiet. Well if she is listening to that band she's quiet, but she wasn't. She wanted to be alone and she would sit in a corner when she got chance to. So this was a sign that it was time, or she was planning to attack someone. Either way it goes it was bad. So the next day Shinto didn't come to school. Myuesaki told Kyle and I that she stayed home cause she wasn't feeling to well. Van didn't mess with me cause he knew that if Shinto found out she would come back to school and bring the deepest part of hell with her. Anyway, with the real matter at hand, after I school I went home and my mom told me to drop something off at Shinto's house.

"What is it?" I asked holding a box.

"It's a heating pad. I heard what happened and that she had really bad cramps. So I made your father go by that for her and I want you to go drop it off. It should take care of the cramps." She said.

"Ok." I said.

            I walked out the door and walked to Shinto's house. I went to the door and knocked. Mr. Vincent opened the door. He cut his hair, for the 5th time. He's just like Shinto. Once they cut their hair, they can never go back to long hair. 

"Ben, hello." he said.

"Hi Mr. Jason. Uhhh, my parents got this for Shinto. My mom said this should help with the cramps she is having." I said.

"Oh, tell her I said thank you." he said taking the box.

"Uhhh, how is Shinto doing?" I asked.

"She been in a corner all day." he said.

"Oh." I said.

"I guess she's feeling better. You can come in and see her if you want." he said.

"Yes please!" I said quickly.

         He looked at me shocked at how fast I answered but then smiled. He let me in and we walked to the basement where Shinto was. She was in the corner like he said. She was wrapped in a blanket and surrounded by stuff animals. Her back was towards us, so she kinda facing the wall.  

"Shinto, someone is here to see you." Mr. Jason said.

"Hey Shinto. You ok?" I asked.

          Shinto turned to us. She had a gloomy look on her face. It was so cute. She took the cover off her head, showing her now, brown hair and black headphones. I think she looked better with black hair, but oh well. Still cute. She took them off.

"Hi Ben." she said.

"Oh , my parents bough this heating pad for you." I said.

"Thank god." she said laying down on the floor.

           I smiled. Mr. Jason plugged in the heating pad and gave it to Shinto. She put it on her stomach and put the blanket back over her. Then she curled into a ball back in her corner. I sat next to her wondering does it hurt that bad.

"Shinto, how to cramps feel?" I asked.

"Like you got punch hard in the stomach." she said.

"That doesn't seem bad. Maybe since I got punched a lot before you came into my life." I said.

"Ok than. It feels like you just got kicked in the nuts." she said.

        I closed my legs. 

"Actually." she said.

"And you have to deal with this once every month?" I asked.

"Yep." she said.

        I petted her head and smiled.

"Well, you'll have me to help you through the pains. Now and in the future." I said.

"Really?" she asked.

"Yep." I said.

       She started to laugh.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Nothing. I just thought you would marry Kyle in the future." she said giving me a weak smile.

"Why would you say that!?" I asked.

"Uhhh, maybe because you two that a whole make out session in the bathroom at school." she said.

        I pouted and started to blush. Ever since she found put that I liked Kyle and we kissed, she and Myuesaki would do everything within their power to get us together. For the rest of the time while I was there, I took care of Shinto. Which was awesome! I was like her little doctor. I told her when it was time to take her pain medicine, even thought I had to fight her to make her take it. I made her tea, and made sure she went to the bathroom every hour. I don't understand why but mom told her she had to. Time pasted and it got dark. Shinto went to sleep in my lap. She had her blanket over her and she had a stuff bear in her arms. She was sucking her thumb which was adorable. I stroked her hair as she slept. Her face soften as I did. I enjoyed taking care of Shinto. I think I'll make a wonderful husband for her. And I guess Kyle to. We will both make great husbands. Can she have two husbands? I wonder?
