24iza_runBoth of them wait for ‘that person’ inside the nearby cafe. They just went to her workplace before and asked for the workers there to call her. Since her shift will end in 30 more minutes, the worker told him to wait at the cafe.
“So, why you want to see me?”
A woman suddenly asks and sits in front of them. Aiba was so shock since she was the woman that they just seen yesterday.
“I’d told you.”
“I-I need to ask you about something.”
Shamelessly, she takes out a cigarette and blows the smokes to him.
“What?”
“*cough*It’s about 10 years ago incident.”
She seems surprised.
“Who are you, what do you want to know and what I’ll get if I told you?”
“You’re not change at all Kimi.”
The ‘ghost’ stares at the woman angrily, making Aiba a bit worried.
“My name is Aiba Masaki, Storm High School 2nd year student. I only want to know why you’re not feel guilty with what had you done to your own best friend 10 years ago.”
“Best friend? Gross.”
The ‘ghost’ clinches her fist. If she can touch her right now, her punch will touch that woman’s face hardly.
“I never thought her as my best friend. And I hate her so much.”
‘Now I’m feeling grateful if this person had been cursed yesterday.’
“Besides, how do you know about me?”
“From Toshiko oba-chan.”
“Owh! So she still not die yet.”
“Pat attention with your words!!!”
“Well, she keeps telling me ‘I’ll be curse if I’m not gonna regretting it’, ‘let her rest in peace’ and so on.”
“She just worried about you!”
“Who cares?”
Now both Aiba and the ‘ghost’ reach the peak of their patience. If she wasn’t a woman, Aiba already punch her face. He immediately inhaled deeply, tries to not doing something ridiculous at her.
“Alright, back to our topic before, why you hate her so much?”
“Actually, the one who should become the main player of the basketball team was me. But one day, she suddenly came to the school and destroyed all my hard work before.”
“So, you’re being jealous with her.”
“BUT being jealous will not bring me anywhere cute boy.”
The woman suddenly moves closer and pinches his cheek. Aiba moves back and glares at her.
“So I did A LOT of things to her. And it’s become easier when I managed to drag the other player into this matter.”
“You should being ashamed with it!”
“Nope. It was her choice to die right?”
“I REALLY WANT TO KILL HER NOW!”
Aiba immediately touches her hand, signalling her to calm down.
“By the way.”
She looks at him, closer than before.
“You’re quite cute, so how about we stop this gross conversation...”
Then, she brushes her leg on him, making him startled.
“And go ‘somewhere else’?”
“WHAT?! WEREN’T YOU MARRIED ALREADY?”
“I was getting married with him just because of his money.”
“Listen here, I’m-”
“She went too far now.”
Aiba immediately looks at her.
“Aiba-san, let me take care of her.”
He was so shock as it was the first time she called him by his name.
“Let me use your body and I’ll TALK to her.”
“Eh?”
“What?”
The woman in front becomes confused with his answer.
“No, I just-”
“Don’t worry, I promise I’ll not do anything harmful to her.”
“But-”
“Trust me.”
She looks at Aiba determinedly. Aiba feels hesitant, but thinking about how rude and heartless woman in front, he agrees.
“Okay, but-”
“Really?”
“No! What I mean is-!”
Suddenly his view turns to dark.

“Oi~ wake up~”
‘Hm?’
Aiba opens his eyes slowly. He was sleeping with his face on the cafe table. Immediately, he looks up, but the woman is nowhere anymore.
“Are you okay?”
The ‘ghost’ looks at him confusedly.
“...Yup. Let’s go.”
He smiles weakly and gets up from the seat. Then, he takes out his wallet and left an amount of money on the table.
“Hey, what’s wrong?”
The ‘ghost’ worriedly looks at him when he suddenly holds the chair. Aiba immediately shook head and continues to walk away thought he knows the ‘ghost’ was not satisfied with his answer. Finally, they reach the silent road before and readily to go home. However, the dizziness comes again, making Aiba immediately stops from walking.
“I’m sorry, but can we stop for a while? My head is too hurt.”
“Sure. Don’t force yourself.”
Then, he leans against the wall fence there. He messages his forehead slowly before looks at her besides.
“...Actually, what have you told her before?”
“Well, I just threatened her.”
“Threatened?”
“Yup. I told her I don’t mind if she wasn’t regretting it, but don’t talk bad about Toshiko oba-chan or did the same thing to anyone anymore. If she wasn’t, I’ll come to curse her.”
“Eh~”
“Um? What the ‘eh~’ means?”
“Well, I thought you’re being jealous with what she did to me before.”
“Huh?! No!”
“Who knows~”
“I’m-! Hey! Are you okay?”
She becomes panic when Aiba’s face becoming pale.
“I’m fine. Maybe I got a cold.”
“Or maybe...I was possessed your body too long.”
“No! It’s just a cold.”
“Really?”
He nods. Hesitant with his answer, she wants to ask further, but Aiba cuts her.
“You know, I really want to know your name.”
“...I’m sorry, but I can’t say my name.”
“But why?”
“Cause’ I will immediately leave your body and back to my death place if I say it.”
Aiba looks at her sadly.
“...I see.”
Again, both of them fall into a deep silence.
“Ne.”
“Hm?”
“Did you remember when the first time we met each other?”
“Mou~ don’t make me remember me about it again.”
“No. The toilet incident wasn’t the first time.”
“Eh?”
Aiba looks at her confusedly. The ‘ghost’ sighs.
“Never mind.”
Then, she smiles.
“Thank you very much for everything. I’m always being alone these 10 years before, but now I’m feeling not anymore.”
“Glad to hear it. Ah, one more thing.”
She looks at him.
“When you think it’s time for you to ‘go’, I promise that I’ll send you.”
“Really?!”
“Yup. I promise that I’ll be there...”
“Yatta! You’re so kind Aiba-sa-”
Suddenly, Aiba falls on the road while sweating and shivering hardly.
“Hey! Are you-”
“AIBA-CHAN!”
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
The four guys look at their pale friend worriedly. Its midnight now, but still no sign he will wakes up from his unconscious state.
“Let me change his wet towel first.”
The other guys just nod. Suddenly, Shoko-chan cries and moves closer to Aiba.
“Masa ni-ni...will be okay right?”
“Yup. Cause’ Masa ni-ni is a strong~ guy.”
Ohno pats the little girl’s head and smiles. Then, Ninomiya comes back to the room with a new wet towel. Ohno and the little girl immediately steps back. Just when he wants to put it on Aiba’s forehead, he notices Aiba’s hands suddenly move.
“Eh? Aiba-chan?”
The other guys immediately move toward him. Slowly, Aiba opens his eyes.
“Are you okay Aiba-chan?”
“Guys?”
He stares at his friends confusedly. Suddenly, the little girl hugs him.
“What’s wrong Shoko-chan?”
“Shoko-chan was so worried...Papa and ni-chan too...”
“...Gomen ne...”
He pats the little girl head. His voice is hoarse because of the high fever.
“...I’m home already?”
“Yup. You’re suddenly pass out this morning and we bring you back home.”
“I see...”
“How‘s your feeling?”
“A bit dizzy...”
He closes his eyes, trying to ignore his headache. Then, he realizes about something.
‘Eh?’
He immediately sits up and looks around the room.
“Aiba-chan? What’s wrong?”
“Where’s-!”
“What?”
Ninomiya looks at him worriedly. Aiba looks back at him before shook weakly his head.
“...Nothing.”
“If you’re searching for ‘her’, she was back to her place.”
“Eh?! You guys-”
“We already know about it Aiba-chan.”
“She possessed your body before and told us that she’ll back to her place. She also said that she was sorry for making you sick and...”
Aiba’s heart thumping hardly, worried if the soul will...
“She said she will rest in peace.”
“You must be kidding me...”
Immediately, Aiba gets up from the bed. However, his friends stop him.
“Aiba-chan, just stay in bed.”
“But, I’d promise that I’ll send her when she wants to ‘go’.”
“But, you’re unwell right now Aiba-chan.”
“Don’t worry Oh-chan, I’m fine now.”
Then, he tries to get up again. But this time Ninomiya manages to stop him.
“You’re not Aiba-chan! Just stay in the bed!”
Aiba looks at him and gives him a determined stare.
“I’m sorry, but I’d promise her.”
He gently pushes Ninomiya aside and moves to the door.
“AIBA-!”
“AIBA MASAKI!!! STAY THERE!!!”
Aiba immediately stops. Seems Sakurai was losing his patience.
“Aiba-chan, don’t be so stubborn! We do this for your own sake too!”
“I know, but...I’m sorry.”
He grabs the door knob and opens the door.
“AIBA!!!!”
Aiba stops, but not looking at his friends.
“ONCE YOU STEP OUT FROM THIS ROOM, YOU’RE NOT OUR FRIEND ANYMORE!”
‘WHAT?!’
He immediately looks at them.
“CHOOSE BETWEEN US AND HER!”
