~next day~

Akashi opened his eyes and idled for five seconds, until he remembered that he was in different world, furthermore, in Aya's house

He sat down and looked around, then heard voices outside the room.

He head outside and saw one of the guys from last night, sitting down on the floor, in front of the low table

"Good morning, Seijurou" Aya greeted him from the kitchen "sit down and I'll prepare your breakfast. Akutagawa is here and brought clothes for you. Don't worry they are new"

Akashi didn't say anything and sat down across Akutagawa, and again looked at him.

Akutagawa just couldn't help but gaze down since he could feel again the intimidating gaze from Akashi, and it was still morning.

"Seijurou, don't glare at Akutagawa. He helped me a lot since I returned here. Also, I have been telling him about the other world. I think he doesn't believe in me though"

"I believe you, senpai. Just the part that there are powers there" Akutagawa retorted

"Seijurou has power"

"Aya, I told you not to tell anyone-"

"It's fine. It's not that he can tell your enemies about it." Aya put down sandwich and tea in front of Akashi, sat down, then turned to Akutagawa "didn't you notice? His injuries are all gone. He healed himself last night"

Akutagawa looked at Akashi and shouted as he couldn't believe his eyes "you are right! They are all gone!"

"Anyways, it's perfecf timing. Akutagawa."

"Yes, senpai?"

"I'll be going back to Seijurou's world"

"Eh?"

"Not right away, but soon. So, I apologize that I need to quit my job. I will hand-in my resignation letter on my next shift. I need to prepare stuffs we needed to bring there. Well, I will be returning here but I don't when"

"Why?! Didn't you say you will die if you stay there?! Senpai, don't go! You're living safely and peacefully here already!" Akutagawa retaliated then turned to Akashi "Don't tell me, the reason why he is here is to bring you back to their world?"

"Yeah, I can't tell you all the details, but I need to help them. I couldn't just stay and live peacefully knowing that their world needs help. To be honest, I've been feeling that half of my life is already there. Besides, Seijurou will definitely bring me back no matter what."

"But you don't need to. It's not your responsibility anymore. You are already back to earth, why bother...?" Akutagawa asked but halted when he saw Aya looking at him, and her face shows how serious she was "it seems I can't stop you anymore. It's senpai after all, you put others first before yourself."

"Thank you, and sorry. I mean, I bothered you so much then I'll be leaving again. But I would like to ask favor"

"What is it?"

"If I leave, I want you to pay the electricity of my house. I don't know how much will it take until I return, but I'll give you money for that."

"I don't mind. I can pay for them, you don't need to pay it back"

"Thank you"

Akashi though on the other hand, he was just staring at the sandwich since it was his first time seeing such food. He eats bread, but this one was new to him, and he didn't have any cutlery to use.

"Akashi-san, why aren't you eating?" Akutagawa curiously asked, but received no response from him "Don't tell me, you don't know how to eat sandwich?"
