『Souichi x Reader』

12. Cursed show

Cursed show

,,what the hell" I say as I watch the video Kayra is showing to me

I don't get it.

Ppl have discovered a show called ,,4 times odd"
It has 4 episodes and every episode is exactly 4 minutes long.
It's just a bunch of marionettes dancing n moving weirdly to music.
The music changes every episode.
Also, the number ,,4" appears every 4th second, which is odd, since 4 is a number that sounds like the word ,,death" that's why I and many others just say ,,yon (四)" instead of ,,shi (四)"

This whole show would make any average human being feel some sort of uncanny feeling, but it's like they're all possessed by something, that makes them watch the episodes over n over again.
Seems like the creator put a curse upon them, definitely someone who is desperate for views.

I have been shown all four episodes, but nothing has happened to me.

,,nehehe.." I hear a quiet giggle behind me.
I stop watching the video and turned around.

,,what do u want, Souichi?" I ask with an raised eyebrow
,,nehehe.., nothing just wanted to see u, neheh.." he answers
,,well, u see me everyday in school anyway" it was currently 2nd break and after, we'd have chemistry.
(I fcking hate chemistry)

He kept grinning at me
,,...what.." I asked kinda worried
,,hihihi, u r just so funny, nehe.."
,,are you okay, Sou?" I wasn't even doing anything
,,how do u like the new show ppl have found, nehehe.." he asked, still grinning
,,I'm gonna beat you up, Sou. Stop acting like that. Do u have ur chemistry book? Cuz ik I don't."

...

,,bro, its so damn cold" I complain
,,let's go to ur house, to ur hot brother. He'll be able to warm me up, ifyk what I mean (😏)" I tease him
,,stfu, u don't need him. I'm ur boyfriend now" he glares at me

,,right"
,,but no srsly, let's go to urs. Its closer n I don't think I'll be able to survive this cold" I state

,,you know that show, that has gone viral among our school?" I ask Souichi
,,what do u mean 'among our school'? Everybody knows abt that show, nehehe"

,Souichiii..." I glare at him furiously
,,whaaat?" He replies with an innocent grin
,,is this all ur doing?!"
,,oh no, no, no! Ofc not, (Name)! I'd never do such a horrible thing! Nehehe" he giggles, which made the nails in his mouth visible
,,but seriously. I didn't do anything" he boldly says

I sigh, but all my curiosity faded away as I saw Souichi's house
,,finally!" I whisper relieved

...

,,I hope Souichi is not to much of a burden" kouichi says w a smile plastered on his face

,,oh, he is, but I can handle that" I reply laughing
The whole time I could feel Souichi glaring at his older brother n me

,,I'm going to the restroom, since it seems like yall don't need me here rn" Souichi announces, as he stands up n stomps away, visibly pissed off or smth

,,uh..sou-..ichi..?" His older brother calls for him, prolly worried or sum
,,Did I say smth wrong?" I ask nervously
,,no! no! He is probably just having a bad day" Kouichi answers, even tho Souichi was just fine a few minutes ago

Is he on his period?

,,well, since he's not here, I wanted to make u know, that he keeps flexing saying that 'u guys r together', which I refuse to believe" he explains

,,eh- oh well.., that's not rly a lie.." I stutter

Ik ik, I wouldn't believe it either

,,oh! That's..a surprise.. I wouldn't expect anyone to like someone like yk...him.
Plus, it's a pain, that my younger brother got a partner (gf, bf, etc.) before  me" he laughs nervously, prolly embarrassed

,,what? U rly never had a gf? Thats also... a surprise... You're rly handsome yk" I say, smiling

,,oh, thank u, (name)" Kouichi says, scratching the back of his neck

He takes his arm down after a second and starts talking: ,,I still don't get it. What do u like abt Souichi 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 much, that u would even start a relationship w him?"

,,you're rly curious, aren't you, Kouichi-kun?" I chuckle
,,uh- it's fine if u don't wanna talk abt stuff like that! We can ju-"

,,no, it's fine." I assure him

,,...honestly I don't even know. Sometimes I ask myself, if I don't rly hang out w him out of pity. Then I feel guilty, for thinking such a thing.
Maybe cuz he's so different compared to others.
Ppl find him creepy, but he's just a try hard. He acts all tough n strong, but he's still just a teenager...who happens to be extremely troublesome.
I think its cute. How he tries so hard to match up with his created persona and fails miserably at times.
I think...he's pretty cute.
... OH! I'm so sorry, I got carried away-" I say with a nervous smile, but Kouichi just smiled at me
,,I'm glad that u think that way abt my younger brother. I would have never thought, that he'd come this far,..no offense" he chuckled

I sighed n before I could say anything Souichi Suddenly jumped on me

,,SO U LIKE ME THAT MUCH, (NAME)!? HAHAHA I KNEW I WAS CUTE N HANDSOME N STUFF, BUT THAT COMING FROM U IS SO DIFFERENT! THATS SO GREAT!! HAHAAHHA" He sat on my lap and pushed me back n forth

,,JEEZ, CALM DOWN, SOUICHI!" I yell at him
,,how long have u been listening anyway..?" I mumble under my breath
,,Souichi, u r gonna hurt them! Get down, u r too heavy!" Kouichi commands his younger brother

,,shut up, shit-ichi! U r just jealous, cuz I got a partner(gf, bf, etc.) before u!" Souichi shouts

,,u do know that 'shit-ichi' would suit u more, since u start w a 'S', right?" I laugh as he tells me to shut up

,,I think it's time for me to go home" I stand up n carefully put Souichi aside

,,already?? can't u stay a little longer, (Name)? Plsss [cry]" Souichi whines

,,shut it, Sou. My parents r gonna fuck me, if I don't get home now." I say, as I get my bag n walk towards the door to exist, while Kouichi n Souichi follow from behind

I stop, when I heard a familiar sound.
I looked to my left, there was the 'second' living room with the TV

Souichis parents n his sister were watching the cursed show, that I have been talking

,,what the hell r they watching?" Kouichi asks
,,its that weird show called '4 times odd'. It seems to be very well-known, everyone in our school has watched it n r still talking abt it." I explain n Kouichi looks even more weirded out

,,they look possessed. Such foolish humans, nehehe" Souichi mumbles with the metal nails in his mouth

Kouichi sends a glare to his younger brother n we just go further

,,goodbye then, see u tomorrow, Souichi" I say, giving the Tsuji brothers a smile, to then head home

I just must know what this is all abt n who is behind the 'cursed show'.
