" now i have neither happiness nor unhappiness. everything passes.
that is the one and only thing that i have thought resembled a truth in the society of human beings where i have dwelled up to now as in a burning hell.
everything passes. "

2 AM.
you were studying for your last exams tomorrow, but you couldn't bring yourself to focus.
i'm tired, i'm so tired. i can't even process a single sentence.
you closed your notebooks and kept them inside your backpack. you headed to your bed and went to sleep.
good luck to me, i guess.
NEXT DAY
"i'm doomed, dazai. i couldn't focus last night, i'm going to fail." you sigh, accepting the truth.
dazai wasn't that type of student to fail. a perfect score, every single time.
and you were just like him, but last night was gonna change that for you. you sighed in disappointment, and he noticed that.
dazai smirked. "here are the answers. don't tell anyone i gave them to you, clear?"
dazai was your friend— a best friend. he's someone you won't be able to understand sometimes, but he's a nice guy.
you smiled at him. "thanks, i owe you one."
AFTER SCHOOL
dazai decided to walk you home. after all, you were neighbors. "hey, it's boring, isn't it?" he asked you.
"wanna hang out at my place?" you joked with him. he never went to your house, the same goes for you.
he looked at you, a bit confused. "really?" then you thought about it.
you dialed your mother's number and asked her if dazai could stay for a while. "who's dazai?" she asked.
"our neighbor, you know him." and your mother approved. "very well, let's go then!" dazai smiled at you.
you both happily shared stories and bought some drinks on the way.
—
hours has passed and it was getting late. you and dazai were about to pass out on the couch. "unbelievable, we watched 15 episodes?" he yawned.
that's right, both of you watched 15 episodes without attempting to take a look at the clock.
you checked the clock. 10'o clock.
"dazai, your parents might be looking for you." you sleepily say. dazai looked at your fragile figure, as you were about to pass out.
"you're right, but don't worry. i told them about our plan today." dazai grabbed the warm blanket that was barely covering your body, wrapping it around you.
"i'll be going now, good night." he stands up, kisses you on your forehead before saying his thanks to you and your mother before leaving.
