Nightmare Arc - Chapter One
Jealousy

(Warning: Yandere thoughts)

Koizumi Manaka.

I love Tsuka-kun.
I love him. So much.

More than anything.
More than anyone.

He's my everything. I just can't live without him.

Before I met him, I never really thought of loving anyone. I never really thought of living. I put on a fake smile everyday just to get these people stick their noises out of my business. If I was honest, they would say bad things about me without looking at the truth-

The truth is that I can't feel anything.

Happiness, sadness, anger, fear... I can't feel any of them. To me, they were just words that people described what they're feeling it. It was stupid. I couldn't blend in and if I don't have these human feelings, everyone was going to hate me.

I couldn't care less about that back then. That is, until Tsuka-kun arrived.

Sasaki Tsukasa was like any other guy at first. Average guy who everyone likes and respects thanks to that charisma of his. I didn't mind him. He's just another background character that I thought I won't acknowledge.

Yet I couldn't help but get attracted to him. Sometimes I feel like he was calling out to me with that smile of his even though he was clearly talking to someone else. When I finally had the chance to talk to him, I was overjoyed. I thought it was normal before I finally realized that I had a crush on him. I fell in love with him.

I suddenly had the desire to talk to him more, to have fun with him more, to spend everyday with him. When he let me call him Tsuka-kun, I was even more overjoyed than I was when I was able to talk to him. Everyday was so exciting with these feelings of mine for him.

And lately, something happened.

It was then I started to feel crazy every time he calls my name. I realized that these feelings for him turned into an obsession. What started out as a small, classmate crush turned into an unhealthy obsession, like a drug.

I don't know why I have this feeling. It felt so new yet so familiar. It throbs my chest everytime Tsuka-kun is near me. It makes my heart race when Tsuka-kun looks at me.

It makes me go insane when Tsuka-kun smiles at me.

I knew that people are going to say I'm obsessed with him more than I love him. Why do I care? Why should I care?

I love him.
I need him.
I must make him mine.

I feel like that's my only purpose to live.

Because it is.

Without Tsuka-kun, I...I can't even imagine what it's like without him. I'll be empty again. I'll die without him.

I can't have that.

I must make him mine. No, he is mine.

Mine alone.

If anyone tries to interfere with my (our) life, I'll demolish them. They'll know what it's like to steal someone else's lover. They'll know what pain means. They'll know what DEATH means.

Mizushina Yume will know what death means.

I know that Tsuka-kun likes her and it pains me to know that. Even though I respect every decision he makes, my unhealthy obsession for Tsuka-kun just keeps growing to the point where I needed to store him in a birdcage.

Why is he so interested in her?

There's nothing good about her.

She's just a bitch trying to lure Tsuka-kun so she'll get the attention she wants. She's a weirdo and she doesn't have friends. Tsuka-kun won't like that type of girl but he already did. But I knew. She doesn't deserve Tsuka-kun. Tsuka-kun doesn't deserve her.

Tsuka-kun deserves me.
He needs me.

That's right.
He's yours.
No one has the right to claim him.

Ever since I was possessed by these strange feelings in my chest, I keep hearing that voice. That sickening, evil voice keeps on whispering in my brain, saying how I should make Tsuka-kun mine and kill Mizushina Yume.

Kill her.
Kill her.
Kill her.

She's going to snatch him away.
You can't live without him, can you?
Hurry up and kill that bitch.

Kill her.
Kill her.
Kill her!

These thoughts have been haunting me ever since I saw Tsuka-kun chasing Mizushina Yume to the roof. I felt such anguish and hatred in my heart that I can't bear it.

I couldn't let anyone near Tsuka-kun.

I'm going to kill her.
I'm going to kill Mizushina Yume and show her no mercy.

That's right.
Kill her.
Kill Mizushina Yume.

I'm going to kill her.
Not just her but everyone and anyone who's going to stop me.
And not even Tsuka-kun is going to stop me.

Too dark?
Well, this is only the beginning of the Nightmare Arc.

There's still some gruesome shit waiting for you down there.
