Chapter 20:

I don't know how it happened.
Or when it happened.

But suddenly, I was in an amusement park with..Kazuma.

He smiled at me.
"Isn't this like a date?"

"If it was, it's illegal." I pointed out.

He smirked.
"It's not illegal, I'm just a few years older than you are."

"Still creepy." I murmured.

He lifted my chin with the his two fingers.
"Don't be mean, I'll be a teacher one day, how about I'll show you a lesson for being a bad g---"

I instantly punched his face and smiled.
"Ah sorry, I was stretching, I didn't mean to hurt you." I said with a sarcastic smile.

He rubbed his cheek.
"Ah, feisty- I--"

"If you say 'feisty, I like it' I'll make sure I 'stretch' more often."

He instantly shut his mouth, but in his eyes..it looks like he wanted to say something else.

I sighed and looked at the amusement park in front of us.

"...I don't like amusement parks." I said.

He looked at me in horror
"You don't like them!?!"

I don't like them...I love them, but I'm not telling you that.

I simply nodded my head and yawned.
"Are you..bisexual?" I asked.

He smirked at me.
"Gender my dear, doesn't matter."

I yawned.
"Let's go to a playground or something." I murmured.

He looked at me in confusion.
"..H-Huh? Why ask me?" He asked.

I gave him my dead pan face.
"As you can see, you're the only person I know here, so unless you have a twin brother, I don't have any other option, plus I'm here with you." I said with a shrug.

---

I sat on the swings and sighed.
It's.. Been a while since I've been to a playground.

I smiled at the quietne--
"Woopee!"

My eye twitched.

"Jippeee!!"

I inhaled.

"Goooppeee!!"

Okay, that's it, I snapped my eyes open and turned to glare at the culprit.

..Kazuma.
On a swing.
Swinging and squealing like a little girl.

"Stop, you look like an idiot." I said.

He fake gasped dramatically.
"I'm a teacher! I'm not an idiot!"

"Then may god bless the children you're going to teach."

He gave me a little glare.
"I'm teaching the second year batch."

This time I was the one to fake gasp dramatically.
"Hopefully they could pass your subject, I don't think they'll pass the 'class for idiots' only idiots could pass."

He glared at me.
I started laughing.

"You're still the same as ever." He mumbled.

I frowned
"What do you mean?" I asked.

He shook his head.
"It's nothing."

"Ayano!"

I snapped my head to that direction and saw Izumo and Kira.

They both ran to me and gave me a smile, suddenly they looked at Kazuma with a smirk.

"Kazuma..? Long time no see." Izumo stated.

He glared at them.
"...You! What are you doing here?"

Kira smirked.
"Why? Can't we visit an old friend?" She asked and pouted, humor evident in her voice.

Kazuma clenched his fists.
"You're not my friend, you will never be my friend." He spat.

I frowned and lightly slapped him on the shoulder.
"That's mean!"

Izumo sighed and leaned on Kira.
"Still thinking about that! C'mon, forget about the past, Kazuma."

The glare never stopped.
"..Stay away ."

I frowned.. I'm lost here.

Izumo and Kira smirked in sync.
"Why would we? We're the Midnight twins."

I gasped
Twins..? They're twins?!

They both gave me a hug.
"Kazuma hates us because.. We didn't give him a nice present when we were younger." They told me.

Well..that sort of..makes sense?

Izumo and Kira smiled.
"See 'ya next time Aya-chan!" They exclaimed and ran.

...What the heck just happened.

I looked at Kazuma.
"Well..I need to go back home, who knows what those idiots did to my house." I said with a little smile.

He nodded his head at me.
"You should go home..Don't tell Asuma I was with you." He said and smiled.

I suddenly had a headache.
But...nothing came.. Just a headache.

But..I have this weird sense of de ja vu.
I looked at him one last time as I started to walk away.

"..Goodbye."

-Kazuma's Pov-

"You should go home..Don't tell Asuma I was with you." I told her and smiled.

She suddenly looked like she was in pain and held her head.

Are..you remembering?
I remember it pretty well.

"You should go home! But--Don't tell Asuma I was with you!" I exclaimed.

"Pft, as if I would tell him! He wouldn't tell me his phone password!" She exclaimed.

We both started to laugh.

"..You two are too noisy."

We both looked behind us and saw Asuma looking at us with a frown.
"Boom, secret over." He said with a smile.

"Wanna go inside and watch a movie?" Ayano suggested.

We both nodded.

I sighed and looked at her.
If only you didn't forget.
Because of them you forgot everything.

It's just weird Asuma hasn't said a word, but..I'm sure he doesn't want to remember the past....like me.

She started to walk away and gave me a small smile.
"..Goodbye."

As she walked away I gave her a sad smile.

This isn't the first time......
you said goodbye.
