The Happiness That The Shinigami Gave Me - V1 Chapter 7
Volume 1 Chapter 7
That night, I woke up with both my hands and legs tied.
My consciousness was awake, but I couldn’t move my limbs. I realized that this was sleep paralysis. Then, I noticed a silhouette at the edge of my sight.
A ghost.
Its presence was hard to discern. I was a hundred percent sure that it was a ghost.
But I wasn’t afraid.
Because its atmosphere made me feel nostalgic somehow.
At first, I thought my mom had finally come for me.
After all, she took me to suicide with her. She wanted to die with me.
Once I remembered about her, she couldn’t get out of my mind.
She must have been lonely. I felt sorry for her, I shoulda been gone with her…
“Hello, it’s been a while, Yuuma-kun.”
However, the ghost had the voice of a man.
His voice was surprisingly clear for a ghost. Then he peered into my face and I realized that he was the afro shinigami.
“Congratulations on finally meeting your fated girl.”
He clapped his hands while laughing. I guess he was applauding me?
“That girl, Natsuhara-san, is a lovely one. It’s unbelievable isn’t it? Someone like her has a short lifespan.”
The shinigami let out a wicked smile.
It was a dark and insidious smile. His expression looked like ‘death’ itself. He took pleasure in the loss of life.
I still couldn’t move my body, but I could still move my mouth.
‘It doesn’t matter. I’ll protect her.’
My words seemed to reach him, even though my voice did not.
“I know. Why do you think I brought you back to life in the first place? I’ll make sure you’ll fulfill your promise.”
‘Sure, go ahead.’
He didn’t need to remind me.
I’ve decided to dedicate my life to her.
“I’m relieved you didn’t forget your promise.”
Shaking his afro, the shinigami happily put his mouth to my ear.
“You have to become her friend first, so you can be around to protect her. You have to make contact with her; do whatever you can to achieve it.”
‘Mm.’
“Be her friend and always stay by her side whenever you can if you want to fulfill your promise to me.”
