Hayakawa and I did not speak of the previous night, and I wondered if we would ever talk about that sort of thing again.

It had been a week since that night, the faithful night.

We were still the same as always.

"I'm leaving for a few days." Aki said, he was nearly out the door when Denji stopped him in his tracks.

"Where to." I inquired, what could Hayakawa be up to now.

The others were interested as well, where could he be going?

"Hokkaido, I'm just going to visit a grave." He said, I nodded. Maybe I shouldn't have bothered him.

Hayakawas spirits had been particularly low recently, ever since the news of the gun devil. It was as if Aki had lost all point and meaning to his life.

This made me particular self conscious and mad because that meant he wasn't living for me, or that I alone was not enough to satisfy him.

Maybe his sorrow was rooted in something deeper, something I couldn't understand.

I didnt dwell on it much, I'd only end up hurting myself over a scenario.

"Can we come." Denji asked, Power noddes.

"Twould be a treat to see the snow." Power said, she picked up Nyako and brushed him in Aki's face.

"Nyako says we can come, so we're coming." She added, her smile was irresistible.

...

Somehow I found myself on a train ride to Hokkaido.

I sat beside Hayakawa, Power and Denji sat in the row behind us. They clearly stated that they wanted independence from 'people like us'.

I wondered why I was grouped in that category, I must not be a crazy enough devil.

I began to enter a deep state of thought again, who's grave were we visiting?

Possibly Himenos?

No, I don't believe she got one.

I glanced at Hayakawa, he looked sad. His expressions had been different recently, his cold eyes faded to soft ones. 

I wondered if he had become too sane, it would have been better if he was as crazy as the rest of us. Maybe if he had been then he would have lasted longer

[A/N] Note that some of the stuff (y/n) says is like reminiscing and from the future talking abt the past. In this scene she has no idea when Aki will die, and she doesn't know how soon it is. Ok now continue 🤩

It pained me to see him in this state, he had lost an arm after all. I wished that it was me who had lost it.

This profession, this life, it was getting to him. Who knew that a human could revert back to a sane self, a weaker self.
