The voices in my head

Chapter 14

Hello all my little dreams! Sorry for the wait for the next chapter ! This ones gonna be a little bit emotional so fair warning. So please remember to vote, comment and share my story.

Hello there everyone, my name is Yamada Misaki. I used to be a teacher and a mother but, now I'm just trying to survive like everyone else is. My chores are doing laundry and gathering the vegetables for everyone.

I've always enjoyed all my wonderful students and took pride in each one of them. Today I was taking my time to wonder and explore about to get some exercise.

Passing by the faculty room I admired the pretty alter we all made. Last night we all took a picture together and put it on the altar. We had food, drinks and a really fun party. But, my heart broke a little bit for Barry...

Being his previous teacher, I knew everything about him and his past. That boy deserves to find love and to have a future with his significant other.

He used to be really obese as a young kid. His parents forced him to over eat constantly until he had to vomit. He told me about every time he didn't finish his food they would force feed him. That was only one the ways they had abused him. I wish I could've been there to stop all those mental and physical burdens he now carries.

Looking at Alexis' picture my heart began to break even more. No one was there in his picture, just like always. It was just him alone smiling in his abandoned home. Everyday after school I would stop by his home and give him food to eat.

He had once confided to me about some of the events of his past. The accident that caused him to always carry around his bear. The reaction of when he had came out to his parents. Although it seems that he has that part confused. His mother was the one who reacted violently. His father who I knew since childhood was very accepting of all people.

Although in his head both of them reacted very similarly due to his already fragile mind. His mother passed away from cancer before the start of the end of the world. This made his father go deeper into his studies causing himself to almost neglect Alexis. In a blunt way of saying it, he made Alexis my problem.

But Alexis was never a problem for me. He's such a sweet boy who was dealt a bad hand. I would constantly take care of him as if he was my own child.

In a way I latched onto him to feed my own desire to be a mother. My fertility clock was coming to the end and I wasn't sure if I could have a child still. During that time imagined he was my own child who loves me unconditionally. I looked down at my stomach and held it for a moment.

My students are the only ones who I can still call my family....

*Flashback*

"Good morning my love. Today's our special day and I want us to have a romantic time together." My husband said then kissed my cheek. I smiled and opened my eyes to see him like I do every morning.

He softly rubbed my stomach and started talking to our child again. The baby kicked and I couldn't help but laugh when he jumped.

"Adam I keep telling you to not get startled when the baby kicks." He laughed at me then went to help me out of bed, "We have to hurry now, our reservation for brunch is at ten." I stretched out then walked into the bathroom after him.

"Aww, where are we going to?" I asked looking in the mirror. "Well my beautiful sakura, we are going to Dreary Lane." He said while holding me from behind.
