The last words

Calm down

14th July 2025- 6:00 am.

Why did I have to wake up so early? I feel... dizzy. Oh well. Time to go over Nagi chan's house! She hasn't really invited me over yet. Now that I think about it... Never. Wonder why she's inviting me over her house now.Hmm... Probably she'll tell me once I get there.

"Hey mam! I'm going over Nagisa's house!"

"Okay Karma! Come back whenever you're ready"

"okay" I smiled at my mam and walked over to her house.

It was quite a modern looking house with white bricks along with the big windows, but when I looked through one of the windows, it was like a totally different set up. The whole inside was like a log cabin!

The floors were polished wood, the walls were also made out of wood... Everything was wood! I couldn't believe my eyes... Then I saw her,

"Nagisa!!" I waved.

She looked a bit surprised but waved back soon after. She opened the door and said in a shy voice,

"H-hi.. Karma.."

I gave a her a big hug, she was soooo, cute! I swear, she's the most cutest person in the whole world! Of course I meant that in a friend way but I could hug her all day everyday to be honest, haha! She looked up at me with a flushed face, I couldn't help but laugh. She interrupted my laughing by saying,

"Y-you can come in now...."

I nodded and smiled as I made my way into her holy cabin (Haha x3)

"Sorry for intruding"

"NAGI CHANNNN!!!"

I got startled by the sudden shouting and turned my attention to where the voice came from.

"MAM! Don't scream like that when we have a guest over! You scared poor Karma!"

As I looked back at the grand wooden door, I saw Nagisa's mam peep her head from behind the door and gave me a big smile.

"Oh, it was just you Mrs Shiota" I said while giving her a nervous laugh.

She walked over to me and bowed a bit and said her sorries. I laughed a bit and pardoned her for her actions. I understand that Nagi chans mam is the hyperactive type, so I don't really mind her being herself. Who wouldn't?

"Ahhhh, thank you so much Karma- Kun! You'd be the perfect husbando for my lil Nagi-chan~"

I blushed a bit at her comment but said shortly after

"Thanks I guess"

But it was a totally different story with Nagisa. Her face was so red that it even put tomatoes into shame!..I don't even know. But still, it kind of turned on my teasing devil side of me.

"Awee, Nagi chans face is as red as a tomato"

"W-WHA?!"

She ran up to her room to check in the mirror probably. It was such a funny moment, even Nagisa's mam was laughing.

"Well, I'll be going to Nagi chan's room!"

She even gave me a little smirk

"okayy! But don't do any weird business with her"

I rolled my eyes and gave her a plain

"Yep"

"Go- WHATTTT??!"

Okay, she's lost I'm outta here. I ran up to her room while her mam was still screaming, though after a few seconds she started giggling. How normal of her as I sighed. I looked for the door that had Nagisa's name on it, as I crept my way through the long hallway, I finally found it 'Nagi chan' it read.

I laughed to myself and quietly opened the door. But I didn't like the sight in front of me.

She was crying, crying into her knees and with lots of magazines and newspapers around her. I wondered to myself, what are all these newspapers and magazines doing here? But that wasn't important, I walked over to her and put an arm round her. She jumped a bit at the sudden touch.

"W-WHOS THAT??"

She said in a shaky tone. Honestly, I felt sorry for her, she's never been this way in.... For never!

"Nagisa?"

I said in a soft voice, as she heard my familiar voice, she calmed down a bit. I smiled at her and patted her head.

"K-karma... It's happened..."

I looked at her in a questions look,

"What's happened?"

"That theory thing they were talking about...."

She handed me one of the newspapers and I was in complete shock. The headlines read 'The deadly beginning' I looked back up here with my face full of fear. I read the first words, 'Today on 14th July 2025 we have encountered what seems to be a deadly earthquake, that's caused a huge amount of damage to the small town of yukiville, most of the civilians there are alive and well, but unfortunately 12 people have lost their lives to this terrible sudden occurrence.

Nagisa looked up to me, tears running down her face. I was really confused on what to do, so much was happening, I couldn't process it all in my head. My thought were interrupted by her saying in a shaky voice,

"S-sugino a-and.... K-kanzaki.."

My eyes widened to the names she just said. Sugino and Kanzaki lived in Yukiville.. What if they... No.. That can't be true.. I felt my self wanting to cry, but I held myself back, I had hope that they weren't one of the 12 people who died. I looked at Nagisa who was now sobbing, tears rapidly falling from her eyes

"Nagisa..."

I said in a quiet voice. She looked up at me slowly and grabbed my shirt. What she did next was something I have never seen her do.

"WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO!!?? KANZAKI AND SUGINO CANT BE DEAD BECAUSE OF THIS STUPID END OF THE WORLD THING! HAS MOTHER NATURE HAD A KNOCKING TO HER FREAKING HEAD?!"

Her sobs became louder and I was left in complete shock, I never knew someone like this innocent blue headed girl had all that bottled up inside her after the day this was all announced. The only thing that came to mind for me to calm her down was reminding her about all the good and memorable moments in our lives. Us talking about that made her forget about anything bad every time, I don't know why, but it just did.

"Hey Nagi chan, remember that time when we discovered a little secret pond in the forest?"

She sniffled...."Y-yeah... T-that was a fun and exciting time.. I really liked that, one of my favorite memories together"

She smiled a bit, that put a smile on my face, it really did, I just.... She's always been a very cheery and fragile person, so every time she was down or upset, it made my heart hurt. Seriously though, who wouldn't be sad if their closest friend was crying right in front of you? After a few more memory reminders she was back to her normal self again. Thank the Gods.
