My Childhood Friends are Trying to Kill Me

Chapter 14

“Hey, is it real?”

When Lelia got angry, the kids laughed a lot.

“Because it’s really childish… Are you the same age as us? I’m really suspicious sometimes.”

“…”

Lelia shuddered when she heard Griffith. To be honest, she felt like she was stabbed. Because unlike these guys, she was seven years old. But she considered herself to be mature compared to them because she could think like an adult as she had memories from her previous life. 

[I can’t believe I heard this!]

Lelia let out a deep sigh and covered Oscar with a blanket as he lay on the bed. Like an older sister.

“Good night, Oscar.”

“Won’t you wish us good night too?”

“Captain, are you showing discrimination?”

“Well, it won’t be his first time discriminating.”

Lelia grumbled and said good night to the rest of the boys and left the room. She then went to her room, which was right next door, and went up to the bed. When she saw the white rabbit doll, she smiled.

“They are childish, so no matter what they say, they are children and still keep those dolls by their bedside.”

Lelia soon fell asleep, hugging the doll tightly.

It was dawn. Outside the window, it was pouring rain, and lightning flashed.

“Leo! Leo!”

Lelia woke up in surprise at the sensation of someone shaking her. As she rubbed her eyes, she saw Romeo with a bewildered face. 

“What, what’s wrong?”

“Oscar’s having another seizure. I was going to call the priests…”

At his words, Lelia jumped to her feet. It was too much to call the priests every time Oscar had a seizure. If it keeps repeating, they’ll suspect Oscar was possessed by the devil.

Lelia ran to the next room with the bag on the table.

The children who woke up turned on the lights and watched Oscar in bewilderment.

“Oscar!”

Lelia approached Oscar who was shaking on his knees and quickly checked his pupils.
