2 hours since birth

"Oh noー! I forgot to say! He got kicked out, serves the dirty cheater right~"

"HUUUHHH!? You- HOW COULD YOU MISS THAT OUT!"

Someone's voice chattered away in a fluster.

Judging from the conversation, I wonder if this is a gossip session at a café.

They were getting loud about personal information, and as if I was an uninvolved party, I thought they made a bad mess.

...But the main topic of their conversation wasn't pointless gossip.

Somehow, it seems it was about me.

"Who the heck is used goods" so I wanted to complain, but I could only unintentionally let out sounds like "auー" and "afuー".

A squirming, moving body that was petite and stank of milk.

It appears that with the memories of my previous life in tact, I've been born anew.

I thought back to my past life, where I had ignored a red light, was hit by a truck, and died.

My age of death was at 29 years.

Then, I received a new life and was birthed just moments ago.

I understood my present situation up to that point.

Everything afterwards will just be conjecture, but this is probably not Japan. Perhaps it might not even be Earth, but I don't really know.

Did you know? A newborn's eyesight doesn't even grade 0.01.

It's really true, since I can't see anything at all.

Aahhー This is a pain. Where is this placeー Who am Iー

I want to sigh, "babuー"

So, I died... And my life was just starting.

I wonder if my parents are crying~
Or, if my friends are surprised~
Or, if my coworkers are troubled because they have to inherit my work~
Or, if my lover is mourning me and such~

I've become sentimental.

I don't have a lover. Ehe, I just imagined him but it still makes me sad...

No no, get your spirit back up and be positive.

How can you be negative for one whole day since being born?

I'll live while facing forwards, since I'm young, anyways.

I'm lucky to have died instantly without feeling any pain!

Somehow, that feels off...

No! But I'm really grateful for not having died after getting involved in a situation.

If I died a weird death, the police would've had to investigate me.

I don't have much to be guilty of, but there are a few things that would be problematic if looked into...

I don't want them to see my computer's search log. I'd searched for things like- well I'll leave it to your imagination.

If anybody sees that, I'll die a second time.

...Tch, no good, no good. I was being pessimistic again.

Let's live more brightly, me! "Abubbuー"

Aah~ah, at any rate I'm bored~

They say a baby's job is to sleep, but you get tired of a simple occupation, and even though I look like this I was an energetic career woman.

"Ohoho, abubu."

....
