chapter 21: "𝐜𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥"

↳"𝐓𝐎 me, it seems like you got ahead of yourself."

umeji quickly hid sedative in his jacket and turned around only to face his now very dangerous rival. her emotionless dark eyes striked daggers through him. he almost flinched when he saw her standing there like a statue. almost.
he is now fully facing her.
there weren't any signs of emotions on his face either.

"now. what is that supposed to mean?" -he asked, eyeing every inch of her
"don't act dumb. i know it was you who posted those photos on musume's profile. it really pains me to admit but it was a clever move." -ayano suddenly stopped talking, looking umeji straight into his golden eyes
"but?" -umeji narrowed his eyebrows, trying to read her but it was impossible
"not clever enough." -dark haired girl finished but within a second her flashy knife made its way to umeji

if it wasn't umeji's strength and experience he would've already be dead.
he gripped the blade tightly, ripping his palm apart. ayano pushed the knife harder trying to end his life.

now the only thing was important, who is stronger?

umeji's eyes widened just like ayano's. both of their teeth pressed together and glaring at each other.
umeji firmly held ayano's other wrist while she cut his hand deeper.

"why the fuck are you doing this!?" -he screamed at her,
"you don't understand. you never will!" -she replied back, her sanity falling down in the ditch
"why don't you think a little!? you live a dull life, where you are only depending on one person to bring you happiness! didn't you enjoy at least one minute with me?!" -umeji is slowly losing his mind as well, his whole body shaking ready to tear her apart but something in his heart told him otherwise.

"yaan-chaan"
"what."
"i'm so bored. they are taking forever to get out of the school."
"what am i supposed to do about it?"
"wanna smoke with me? it's more fun when there's more people."
"i don't smoke."
"have you ever tried?"
"no. not planning to."
"you are so not fun. come on why?"
"because senpai might not like it."
"damn. you have a life to live. letting taro control your life and cutting the enjoyment out of it for someone else's opinion is lame." - umeji spoke as he sat up on the grass he was laying on, now facing ayano.

he took out a can of beer and two cigarettes. he put one behind his ear and the other in his mouth. he lit one up while looking at the beautiful light blue sky.

"what if my life doesn't matter? what if senpai is the only one that matters?" -she asked numbly looking down at the floor

"nonsense. you are lucky to be even alive. do you even know what odds are for you to be born? it's like fucking one trillion against one. so if you are here, right now, with me. i'm sure you matter. your choices and feelings too." -blonde boy slowly looked down at her and offered her his last cigarette that was stuck between his ear and head

ayano's eyes lit up like his already smoking cigarette. she could feel her heart beating in her chest. it was slow and calm, she felt herself breathing. breathing the fresh air. she gently took the cigarette in her hand looking at it.
instead of smelling umeji's burning cigarette or her own, she could smell flowers. she felt the wind touching her soft skin and going in between her hair and bangs.
ayano put the cigarette near her mouth and inhaled it in.
from her rosy lips escaped grey smoke, going up and vanishing in the air. she, for the first time in her life felt relaxed.

'was that the feeling they use to describe?' -she asked herself thoughtfully while leaning on the three behind her

"i don't know what exactly did you just do but thank you eji-kun."- she looked at him with her gaze, her black eyes weren't showing any emotion but they were soft and calm. like there was some sympathy in them.
