"Ayanokouji-kun, I think there's something wrong with me. I can't stop thinking about you lately."

I already knew it

I already knew it. She's been acting strange these past days. Neither do I have any idea on what was happening, but there's a way to confirm it.

"I see. Take off your clothes." You might be asking, how does everything come to this?

"Damn! Ayano never fail to amuse me! He's cold as ever!!!" As I read a famous light novel in Japan, Classroom of the Elite Year 2 Volume 5 by Syougo Kinugasa, I found myself screaming out of exhilaration in midnight hours. "Although I feel pity for Sakura after she got expelled, I can't still help myself, but to admire Ayano even more to what he did!"

When I celebrate and mourn at the same time for their fallen classmate, a middle aged man from the neighborhood scolded me from his window probably because I was too loud and noisy. We are living in a subdivision and houses here are close to each other so it's no surprise he'll get mad at me.

"SHUT UP BASTARD, WILL YOU?!! If you don't want to sleep yet, THEN LET THE OTHERS WILL!!"

"S-s-sorry....."

Just like any other person, I'm just your typical average otaku who loves reading light novels. A 16 year old guy who lives in poverty. Since I'm poor, I don't have enough cash to show my support to the author even though I wanted to, so I wait for the unlicensed translation and for the free copies of the volume to release.

I know some of you might be mad at me right now, but just like what Ayano said, to be human is to be unequal. There are several people who had been luckily touched by Midas and woke up on a wealthy family, and there are also some who had it unfortunate and gain consciousness on a poor household like me. Even so, I'm still glad to be with a happy family despite living in poverty. We are always a hap-

"Hey dumbass!! Get up early and work your useless ass so we can earn money!! DO. YOU. UNDERSTAND?!!"

My mother who's around forties, barge into my room without knocking and ordered me out of nowhere. Should I take back what I said earlier?

"Y-yes...."

That old hag always nagging at me, I swear to thy Mira!! As soon as my mom left, I turn off the lights, laid down on my bed, and cover myself with blanket. Before I close my eyes, I asked myself,

"Will I become Ayano someday?"

Of course, the answer is pretty much obvious. The only wish I have is to atleast have Kinugasa sensei's autograph which is quite impossible too. I just sigh and proceed to sleep, but the moment I shut my eyes off, an eerie voice whispered through my ears.

<Do you really want to be Ayanokouji Kiyotaka?>

The tone of its' voice is very strange. It gave me chills and shivered my spine. Just like any other horror film you watch in Netflix or other movie streaming platform, the situation immediately became terrifying to me as my hair stood on end out of fear. I got up quickly and opened my eyes on an instant, but the thing happened afterwards made me confused and speechless.
