Invisible Crush

Chap. 4: Creepy Stalker

Finally, you got out of the bathroom.
You jumped on your bed, thinking about what happened today.

'I kinda feel bad for Marie now.. I won't be able to record the summoning for her..' You sigh.

You started looking at the ceiling. Suddenly, your eyes were teary. You took a pillow and you put it on your face.

"AHHHHH!" You screamed in your pillow.

Hanako didn't know what to think about that. It took him by surprise.

Then, you stood up on your bed, and started looking at the window. Suddenly, you were crying.

"Where are you... I feel so lonely.. Please, come back soon! I really miss you.."💧💧💧💧

"..."

"..Don't worry, I'll end your pain.." Hanako lifts up his knife, ready to end with your life.

"AAAHHHH" You screamed.

Hanako jumps.

"YOU WILL COME BACK SOON, I'M SURE ABOUT IT. YES YES YES." You said out loud with a big smile on your face before laying down on your bed again.

'?!?!?! What's wrong with them?! They were crying rivers and suddenly they are smiling!' Thought Hanako.

'That's a nice friend you've got Hanako.'
Hanako remembered those words.
'They are a very nice person after all..' Hanako fell on his knees, he didn't know what to do anymore.
'Is it worth killing such a human being just because of my selfish thoughts..?' Was thinking Hanako.

"UuuHHhhH.. 😨"

Hanako looked up.

"WH- WH- WHO ARE YOU?!" You screamed.

Hanako panicked. He forgot again that you can see him.

Hanako: I- I umm.. I'm H-Hanako-san..?

You: ... Do I look that stupid to you? What kind of joke is this? Are you one of Marie's friend or what..? I've never seen you at school.. And.. HOW DID YOU GET IN MY HOUSE TF?!

Hanako: This is not a joke hehe.. 😅 I'm Hanako-san, the seventh of the Seven Wonders of the school.

You: Okay that's it. How much did she pay you? You know what, I don't care just get out of my house you creepy stalker. 😐

Hanako: S-stalker..?

You: Yes! Wait! Were you the one I heard at school?! Geez you're so creepy...

Hanako: You're so rude. 😠 I thought you were nice.

You: Huhh?! I'm rude?! What do you mean?! There's literally a random guy who entered my house, and you tell me I'm rude for calling you stalker?! You're creepier than I thought..

Hanako: I- 😧Ugh.. I'm sorry..? You're the one who summoned me.

You: Wha- You're still keeping up with the joke? Geez let me hire you.

Hanako: I'm not joking!! Look, let me show you. Put your hands up.

Hanako started floating. He tried grabbing your hands but it only went through them.

You: ... I-... Uh.. 😨😨😨

Hanako: So, do you believe me now?

You: I- This is a dream right? And why aren't you a girl? Okay then.. Umm.. G-good night, I want to wake up from this weird dream.

Hanako: 😐 I know it's hard to believe, but this is for real. Now, I have some more important things to talk about than myself.

You: I mean, there's literally a ghost in front of me. I don't know if I should be happy or not..

Hanako: You shouldn't..

You: W-why..?

Hanako: Huh? Oh- Nothing! 😅

You: Okay then.. I do believe you now.. I still don't trust you..

Hanako: Understandable.

You: ...I...

Hanako: ?

You: I'm sorry..

Hanako: For what?

You: For telling you those horrible things.. I'm really sorry.

Hanako remembered Tsuchigomori's words again.

Hanako: No.. Don't be. I'm the one who should be sorry.

You: Well, I forgive you. 🙂

'I am sorry for entering their house just like that, but truth is, it is not because of that, that I am apologizing.. If they would've known my true intentions, I'm sure they would never forgive me.." Was thinking Hanako.

You: Umm.. Are you okay..?

Hanako: Huh? Oh- Yeah! Now, What is your name and what's your wish?

You: My name is (Y/N) (L/N) and do you really grant wishes?! 😲

Hanako: Yesh. 😌

You: That's so cool! 🤩

Hanako: Now tell me, what do you wish for?

You: Hmm.. Well.. Please don't laugh at me..

Hanako: Why would I?

You: Because maybe what I'm going to wish for will sound kinda cringe..

Hanako: We'll see.

You: Well.. I don't want to spend my time at home alone anymore...

Hanako: Oh!

You: ..? What is it? You can't do that?

Hanako: No, it's not that. It's just... Your wish is really different from others.

You: Is it bad?

Hanako: No, no! Other people ask for a date or money. Some things like that.
So why is that what you wish for? Of course, if you want to tell me.

You: Well, I haven't seen my parents it's been almost a year. They work at a cruise and they hardly spend some time at home, but it never lasted this much. I really miss them. That's all..

Hanako: I see.. So your wish is not to spend your free time alone?

You: Yes.

Hanako: Hmm.. I'll see what I can do.

You: Thank you! I really appreciate it.

Hanako: Why do you thank me? I haven't done anything yet.

You: Well, you're trying to help me. Besides, you already did.

Hanako: I already helped you?

You: Yes! It's the first night in a long time that I'm not alone. Thank you.

Hanako blushed a little.

Hanako: Well, I have to go now.

You: Okay then! It was nice meeting you, Hanako-san!

Hanako: It was nice meeting you too,
(Y/N).

You: See you!

Hanako: See you..

Hanako left.

'Woooww.. That was really weird but amazing. My life is finally getting better. Still, there was something weird about him.. He looked.. Unhappy.. I mean, he probably gets really lonely too being a ghost and all.. Maybe I can help him too.' You thought.
