Not So Disastrous Life

Beliefs

Normal;

School went by surprisingly fast that day. There wasn't anything eventful to write down. So I decided to just skip it to when Juliet and I were walking home.

Juliet's POV;

He's always so quiet. So monotone. He acts like he couldn't care less about anything. That's not the truth is it Kusuo? I see your outer shell, the walls you raised. There's more to you on the inside.

"...Ok now you're staring at me." He said. I shook my head and smiled.

"Can I ask you a question?"

"...what?"

"That pervert Toritsuka. Is he actually a psychic medium? I mean, I know you told me earlier how he spoke the truth but..."

"....I believe he is. I don't know how to prove it...but I believe he's real....why? Do you not believe in the supernatural? Psychics? Mediums?"

"Oh I do....I believe in a lot of things. I keep faith even when people say it's foolish. I believe there's more out there than we can see. If Toritsuka is real, well, I'm jealous....I wish I had any psychic ability.....sure I believe it would be more of a burden than others would know but if it meant helping anyone I could? I could deal with it..."

Saiki's POV;

I couldn't believe it. It's like she knew. Not about me personally but about someone having psychic abilities.

"Oh I do....I believe in a lot of things. I keep faith even when people say it's foolish. I believe there's more out there than we can see."

"There is."

"If Toritsuka is real, well, I'm jealous....I wish I had any psychic ability."

"No you don't."

"Sure I believe it would be more of a burden than others would know-"

"It is."

"-but if it meant helping anyone I could? I could deal with it..."

"... you're to kind for this world, Juliet."

"What about you?" She asked. "Do you believe in psychics?"

I didn't tense up or anything. I calmly looked as though I was thinking.

"...Yeah....I'm like you...I believe there's more out there....if there are people in the world that can see ghosts, what's stopping others from doing more..."

"Exactly! You get it!"

We both gave small smiles before I stopped at my front door. Juliet kept walking for a second before turning back to me.

"You know Kusuo....even if I wasn't the psychic..... I'd try to help them stay good. I read a comic that said with great power comes great responsibility. Who knew Spider-Man would be so quotable!" She chuckled a bit. "...but in all honesty....I would help them however I could.....like...if you were psychic.... I'd always be there to help...."

"That's the thing. I am....but you can't help..."

"Well see ya! I have work later so stop by if you want." She skipped off after that. I stood silently by the door. I could hear my parents crammed against it, listening in on the previous conversation.

"Stop spying!" I shoves open the door. Both my mom and dad rolled back.

"Oh don't mind us Ku! We weren't spying!"

"I can hear your thoughts."

"Alright. You caught us. Did you tell her? Does she know?" My dad asked. I sighed.
