Better Times || A Splatoon Story

Day VIII Hour 3

???

"You're just jealous because we're actually together as a couple!" My younger twin yells at me. Those words made my heart shattered. "You what?!" I yell with power. "Yeah, we're dating," she growled. "And you can't ever stop our love Sayuri!" she slammed the door with her foot, show off. It almost hits my face, I wasn't let into our room now. "Whatever..." I mumbled, storming off to the living room. I pasted around the coffee table, left and right. Tears wanted to blind me, but I push them away. I plop myself on the bouncy couch, I was thinking too much. I couldn't take it at all. We never got into a fight like this at all. It was still early 3 in the morning. We wake up at this time, because we early morning classes. Deji my twin sister has ballet, I have martial arts class. I still have to get ready, but with that brat Deji hogging our room, I'll be late. I decided to go into our bathroom and do my hair in a twisty bun like I usually do. I so want to get back at Deji, she took my man. It's funny, we both like the same guy, and we're sisters. I guess we never told each other that we liked him. She had the guts... tears stealthy crawled out of my eyes, and I didn't notice or care. I heard something, a voice. It was in my head telling me, "Get that revenge, tell Marie about the three of you." That voice kept repeating itself over and over. I close my eyes, I asked that voice, "is it really worth doing?" I kept asking myself that, finally the voice answers, "yes. You need to. Look how much this hurt you, how much Deji hurt you." My eyes sprung open, I was going to tell her, but not today.

Why we bullied Callie: Well, this was never my intention. It was his idea. He really loved the squid sisters, especially Marie. When Callie disappeared with the octoranians, he was worried for Marie. But he never asked if she was ok, he never wanted to talk to her. Marie would sometimes disappear too. He would always be down when she wasn't there. Pearl and Marina were help taking over Callie and Marie's spot. He was going to bully the off the hook girls, but he changed his mind. Because, Marie was happy when she was around them. He didn't want to be on her bad side. But then again, he never talked to her at all.

Suddenly, Callie returned. Everyone was so excited for her reappearance, and I have to admit, I was too. And so was Deji. Marie was herself again, she would always talk to Satomi too. I can't lie, but I ship them. I always thought of me and him just like those two. He was happy, but he never really acknowledged us.

One day, the word of Callie being with the octoranians spread around. He told us that Satomi told us. I don't ever remember that, but me and Deji trusted him. He had me and Deji spread it around, but I didn't. Deji did, and she kept spreading if it was like the whole world knew. He was hurt, so he wanted to hurt Callie for Marie's sake. He made me write and deliver all the mean kick me notes, text kill yourself, etc. Me and Deji did his bidding. It was mostly him and Deji who bullied her physically, and hurt her with words. I was the tiny sidekick, the one who does the notes, the real brain. It all makes sense, how they are dating. I remembered the day he had me put a note in Marie's locker to meet him at the fountain. He told us about her reaction, he didn't really like her. Marie cared out Callie of course, he was wasting her time. But what was she really doing for him to ruin her time? Deji through her round sunglasses, her pupils dilate only around him. But, I didn't notice. I didn't care at the time.

Now, it all sums up. It is the only option.
I will tell you.

Callie

Dear journal, I am currently in math. Im not having the greatest time of my life I know that there is a f**k yourself note on my forehead I should probably take that off one moment...k any way I was so eggar to write in you about my day that I had forgot the note was on my head. Sometimes I think the world would be better off with out me. I just feel like I would make people's days if one day I was dead. I wonder what death is like, is it like sleeping but you never wake up? That's what mother said when my pets would die. My mom huh its so weird I almost had forgotten she was there. I wrote there because her and dad died in a plane crash, that's why I hate planes. Well were taking notes now guess I should go.

•The Dream•

I was back in that void, when me and dream Callie talked. Weirdly enough, I didn't see the void in such bright pink with black cracks sliding on the walls. I walked around, I couldn't find Callie anywhere. I see Callie, gripping the floor, like she was trying to hold herself up. I ran to her, I was going to touch her shoulder when she wacks it away. "Leave me now!" She croaks. "What? Don't-" I was interrupted. "I TOLD YOU TO LEAVE!" Her head whips to me, pink ink seeped from her eyes, I jolt back. I've never seen something happen like that at all, she really terrified me.

•Dream Ends•

I woke up, I was still in the hospital safe room. My cap and mask was still on my face. I take them off. The nurse was still awake too. I stood up, putting Callie's body gently on the bed. I walk towards the nurse. "Oh, so you're awake," the nurse smiles. "Is it still going on?" I yawned. "I'm afraid so," the nurse looks away ashamed. I tried turning on my phone, dead. "Do you have a charger by chance?" I ask the nurse politely. "Out of luck, sorry dear," she said. I sigh, I hope Grandpa is okay. I put my phone back into my sweater pocket, and paste around the room. "Hey, can I ask you something?" I ask politely to the nurse, I stopped pasting. "Yes of course Marie," she looked into my eyes. "Don't tell anyone Callie is in the hospital, and not me at all. I don't want drama to consume us all," I said, and I really mean it. "Don't worry, this our little secret," she smiles. I turned around to the other patients. I realized they were all in comas too. There were other doctors in here. They were asleep. "Hopefully they won't say a word about this too," I said kind of quietly. "It will be okay, when the nurses wake up I'll inform them right away," the nurse turned around with her dim flashlight writing in her day book. I took off my shoes, so nobody would here a sound. I slowly slid down to sit on the ground. The ground chilled all of my bones head to toe. I did nothing, all I could do right was sleep, so I did. From boredom, I curled into a ball on the floor and went to sleep.

I woke up up from police barging us out. "You guys ok?" They ask. "Yeah, we are ok," the nurse says. "Marie? What are you doing in the hospital?" One of the police officers asks. "Family reasons, you can't ever say I was here," I said. "Alright," the police officer agrees. "Thank you," I walked over to Callie's body and picked it up. I walked to Callie's room and steadily put her on her bed. I look at the clock above the door. "9:48 a.m." I flinch for no reason, but I should be at school. But then again, I don't want to go to school. I stepped out of Callie's room, closing the door quietly behind me. "Would you like a ride home?" One of the police officers stopped me. "That would be nice," I smile at the officer. "If you will follow me," he ushered me to his car. I follow right behind him. I looked around my surroundings, everything wasn't badly damaged, but was ruined.
