♡The Memory Game♡

The motive?

I decided to stay in my room, everything that happened yesterday took a big toll on me.
That was what I decided until I heard a knock on the door, followed by Kaito coming into my room.
He decided to drag me along to breakfast, of course. Although, I really wasn't feeling it.

...should I leave my hat off..?

...no...

....yeah....

....no....

I'm keeping my hat on. (Woah omg the first major change... incredible!) I can't take it.
Me and Kaito walk to the dinning hall, aka he completely dragged me there.
No one really payed attention as we entered, they just kept eating. I think they were still processing what had happened yesterday.
I mindlessly took a seat and stared at the table top. I did feel someone sit across from me though.
But that didn't matter

Until I felt my hat being taken off my head

OH HELL NAAWWW~

I immediately bolt up onto two feet, and I look up to see Kokichi Ouma putting my hat on top his head.
"Ouma..."
I say softly, moving my eyes to the floor and I try to cover my face with my hair. It didn't work that well.
"Saihara-Chan! How do I look?"
Ouma said that in such a cheery way, and I hated it so much.
"Ouma. Please give me back my hat."
I tried my best to sound as stern as possible, but it didn't work very well.
"Aww, come on Saihara-Chan! Look at me!"
I look down even more.
I can feel everyone's eyes on us. Stop.
I sink further into my hair, but thankfully this moment was interrupted by a voice beaming over the speakers.
"Hello students! Make your way to the gym, I have a surprise!"

I could hear just about everyone groan and get up.
I hated Monokuma's announcements, you never know what's coming.
I was busy thinking, but soon noticed everyone was leaving. Even Ouma with my hat!
I speed walk and slow down once I'm beside him .
I quickly move my eyes to the floor in front of me.
"Ouma, ..can I please have my hat.."

"Nah, you look so much better without it, Shumai!"
Shumai? Where did that even come from..? What??
I feel my face flush. A nickname already? He doesn't give anyone else nicknames..
"Ouma, pl-please.."
My voice started wavering.
It felt as if the mood changed completely, and Ouma was more serious.
"Sorry Saihara."
Ouma said as he handed me my hat and walked on ahead. I just stood there.

That was... weird?

But soon we reach the gym, and I have my hat back on. We all gather and wait. Ouma decided to not stand by me, I was thankful but also wished he stood by me.. why..?
My thoughts were stopped by Monokuma popping up. "Hey hey hey!"
"What do you want? Is it going to be another motive or something."
Ryoma rolled his eyes
"No! This is about a past motive! Remember?"
Everyone snapped up.
"I forgot!"
Kaito said very loudly
"Who's gonna get their memories back?!"

"Well... you guys get a vote! Who do you want changed? You guys were completely different before!"
"Different..?"
I question without even thinking.
"Yup! So if I give memories back, their personality will snap! Boom! Different!"

Everyone looked around as if they were trying to decide who to choose.
I see out of the corner of my eye, Ouma staring at me. Great, he's probably gonna pick me.
I wonder what I was like before?

"Here, write your answer on these pieces of paper! Then the person with the most votes, their memories will be kaboomed!"

I was handed a paper, along with all the other students.
I wondered, who would I like to be different?
Then I remember.
They eyes that have been so interested in me.
Purple. Checkered scarf.
But do I want that to change?
Would I miss him?
No...
Right..?
He's quite entertaining, but very annoyingly awful.

I sigh and finally make up my mind
I write,
Kokichi Ouma.

I hand my paper into a box, where they will be counted up.
I then retreat to the side, watching everyone turn in the rest of the slips.

Monokuma went through all the slips, counting them each, and making marks on a board every slip.
I wonder if the tally marks represent different people? They were separated in groups.

"Alright y'all's! I counted the slips, and I have here the people who you voted for!"
I look to the board, and I see a small amount of tallies to the side of two groups of a big number of rallies. I wonder who are the two who got that many? You can't really even tell who got more.

"Look at these two tally places! Can you guess who these two lucky people are?"

Everyone looks around cautiously.
"Yes, and out of one of these, one will get their memory back! Either Kokichi Ouma..." Ouma immediately froze hearing his name ,"... orrr, Shuichi Saihara!"
It was my turn to freeze. Wait... people wanted me to get my memories back? Did that want me to change that bad?
I wonder if that's what Ouma is thinking too..

"But, the one with the most votes, winning by only one, is Kokichi Ouma! Get up here, kid!"
I sorta sighed in relief, but that didn't take my anxiety away.
I realize
I could've changed that whole outcome if I voted for myself...

I shook away those thoughts as I watched Ouma scoff, roll his eyes, and stRUT up to Monokuma.

"That's it! I will call another announcement once everything is perfect! See ya!"
Monokuma swiftly disappeared to the side, Kokichi Ouma following.

I wonder what he will be like? Will he be okay..?
