—-Where am I?
Ah, it’s all darkness. No light anywhere.
Just like my past, present, and future all rolled into one.
Haha, I can’t help but laugh.
Marriage is built on vows, right? Loving only each other.
That’s why there should be light there.
But if that love is fake, then this is what happens.
Love can’t exist in fiction.
Even if there is light, it’s just darkness.
“…My fault…”
I hear a voice. What is it?
“…It’s my… fault…”
It sounds like someone crying and screaming, but I can’t make out what they’re saying.
“It’s my… fault… I… I’ve caused so much pain to Kazunari…”
Ah, such a dreadful voice.
If I had control of my body, I’d probably punch whoever’s making that sound.
Unfortunately, I can’t move. Lucky me.
Hmm?
But my eyelids seem like they want to move. You are reading on g.com, the official source.
I guess because I had them closed, all I could see was darkness. I’m such an idiot.
But if I open them, it feels like I’ll be engulfed in even deeper darkness than now. My intuition is usually right. After all, I saw through the affair.
Well whatever, I have to open my eyes…
…
…
…
“Hmm…”
“Kazunari! Kazunariiiiiii!”
Ah, I’m so unlucky to be greeted by such an unwanted voice.
“It’s my fault! I’m sorry! I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m so so so so so soooooorryyyyyyyyyyyyy…!”
What is this? Crying voices dragging me from one hell to another? It’s making me lose words, it’s so unpleasant.
“Is this… hell?”
After crying for a while, rather than being a demon, Maya finally calmed down, and I asked to understand the current situation.
“…We’re at the hospital. You had a gastric ulcer, vomited blood, and collapsed…”
“…Ah.”
Reality caught up. Maybe my brain slowed down due to lack of blood.
“…It’s my fault. I’m sorry.”
“That’s right, it’s Maya’s fault.”
“Aaaaah…”
Annoying. She’s crying again.
Sending unpleasant signals to my blood-deprived brain.
“Even if Maya cries, it’s not like my stomach will heal. And first of all, if we’re in the hospital, be quiet. It’s annoying.”
Well, having Maya here is annoying in the first place.
Now is the time to press this button, click.
“Ono-san? You are awake? I’ll call the doctor.”
The nurse arrives. It was really something, blood coming out of the nose instead of milk.
Anyway, I’ll have to ask a professional about my condition.
“So, go home.”
“No! I’m worried about Kazunari…”
“If you stay, I might start vomiting blood again. This is no joke. Get lost.”
Scolded by me, Maya finally disappeared from the hospital room.
…It seems like I’ll be able to calm down for a while. At least I don’t have to go back home.
