[COMPLETED] | [SHORT NOVEL]
Being one of the strongest Unverse Realm Guardian, Suzume-san knew it was soon time for her to step off from the job. Having her apprentice named Ryuu, she knew what she taught him is enough to let him on his own. Suzu...
I opened my door the next day and saw him leaning against the wall, "Are you feeling well?" he asks, I nodded. "Happy... birthday, Ryuu." I greeted.
He just beamed at me. "Not just yet!"
"Not just yet what?"
"The happy part. Just my birthday. I will be happy after I assured your safety later on today!" he replied, as he took my hand and we began to walk.
This feeling is so warm... His hand touching mine... just this moment... makes me so much in content.
I understand it all now...
But why—
Is it because the parasite is about to hatch that's why a superficial energy that resembles love is manifesting out from it and it's making me feel this way?
Or have I really fallen in love with Ryuu?
Such a shame though....
I might expire later...
I shook the thoughts away. I must stay strong and trust Ryuu.
If he fails, or succeed... at least I'll be with him until the end.
"Why are you smiling?" he asks, turning his head to look at me over his shoulder,
I shook my head, "Nothing, I'm just happy"
"You're so weird, Suzumi. Hahaha! I'm happy too." His hand squeezes mine, "Because this is no longer illegal, right?"
"Huh?"
"You know, statutory rape as you call it."
"Dummy" I chuckled.
"What? I'm correct, right?"
I just laughed as he laughed as well.
We headed to the school and went on with the school activities in our own individual schedules. The day went on smoothly as usual.
I saw Takashi-sensei by the corridors around lunch time, "Suzumi-sensei." He regards my presence, "How are you feeling?"
"I'm actually feel refreshed" I replied, as he frowns
"Then today will be the day... I will hope for the success of whatever Ryuu has planned for today."
"Thank you, Takashi-san"
"See around, Suzumi-san." There was a pensive smile he gives out before walking away.
I hate how my colleagues look at me as a dying person but I can't blame them.

At a distant, I saw the familiar figure of Ryuu.
I walked towards him and saw a girl bowing before him. Ah, is she trying to confess to him?
