Ghost School

Call my name

"whataa??! am I dead??!" ask me to be surprised

"no. you don't die. If on earth, you're like you're asleep as usual" said Izumi

"but, you almost died for real" Izumi continued

I was confused by what Izumi said

"i've said it or not?." said Izumi

"if you suddenly want to break ties with me, you will die" Izumi said

"you..no kidding, right? you never told me that before!" say me

"how could such an important thing forget you said??!" say I'm angry

"yes, yes. sorry.." said Izumi with a carefree expression.

I who was immune to Izumi's attitude was now no longer angry or upset if he was so.

"then, does that mean I'll continue to bond with you?" much

"no. you can untie this without making you die" Izumi said

"how's it going?" much

"you have to keep helping me. Help me do all the things I want" Izumi said

"that way, maybe someday you can untie it" said Izumi

"maybe? then, it could be even though I have helped you, but the bond is not separated" I said

"really, because of that, you have to do well, it can make your chances of untieing it big" said Izumi

"ah, and again, you have to untie it within three years" said Izumi.

"three years?" much

"yes, because I'm the ghost of this school, so I can't go all the way from this school" Izumi said

"if you don't untie it when you graduate from this school, it will break on its own" Izumi said

"do you know what it would be like if the rope were cut off?" ask Izumi

"you will die, because you and I cannot meet. The rope will force you to be close to me, and finally bring your soul to me. Just like the current state" Izumi said

I fell silent

"hey, Izumi.." call me.

"hmm?" answer Izumi

"Maeru knows this, right?" much

"of course he knows" Izumi replied

"then why did he tell me to cut the rope? why does he want me dead?" much

"the relationship between me and Maeru since the past is not good.he wants to make you his subordinate.The evil spirit we met in the old building at that time was also Maeru's subordinate" said Izumi

"you were taken by Maeru because of our personal problems. Therefore, I won't let you get hurt, but.." said Izumi and lowered his head.

"already... I'm also fine.just forget about that one.." said I comforted him.

"by the way." I said and turned to Izumi.

"is what Maeru said true?" much

"Izumi... Did you kill Maeru and the others?" much

Izumi just kept quiet and still lowered her head

"ah, sorry. I shouldn't have said that.." I said and lowered my head.

"what?" I turned and looked at Izumi

"do you believe what Maeru said?" ask Izumi

"i don't know either." I said with my right hand holding my left hand.

"i think what he said was probably a lie to set me up" I said

"but, what he said also made a lot of sense.I was confused whether he was lying or not." I said.

"who knows for sure about Izumi's life of course is Izumi himself. Izumi who knows best whether Maeru is lying or not. I can't draw conclusions at will." I said

"i won't force Izumi to tell a story if Izumi doesn't want to say it now, I'll wait until Izumi says it herself" I said

"hey, man, it turns out you talk a lot too, yes." said Izumi who still lowered her head and tone an innocent voice.

"what did you say??!!" yell at

"when the atmosphere was so good!! I looked so wise when I said that!! but you're ruining the mood!" yell at

"and again! you call me 'human' all the time! you never called my name!" yell at

"i call you 'human' because you're human" Izumi said

"but!! you were once a human too!" yell at

"my name is Asahi Yurin! you call me Yurin!" say me

Izumi looked over and looked at me for a moment.

"don't want to" Izumi said and lowered her head again

"what's wrong??! whyyy?! what's wrong with you calling my name??!" yell at

"i'm not a human being, I don't deserve to call anyone's name" Izumi said

"but.you called Maeru's name.." I said.

"he's not a human being and again, I'm actually kind of disgusted and annoyed every time I say or hear his name" Izumi said

"i'm not Maeru. You don't have to be disgusted when you call my name, so it's okay to say my name. You also don't have to hesitate to call me!" say me

"stop calling his name! that pisses me off!" said Izumi

"aaaarrrggghhh!! you're this!! is it so hard to call my name??!" just pissed

"i'm also upset you keep calling me 'human'!!!" say me

"i told you, I'm not a human being. I don't deserve to call a human name" Izumi said

"Izumi! you're human too! you just don't have a body!" say me

"no. you're wrong. I wasn't human in the past, even when I still had a body" said Izumi

I stood in front of Izumi

"you are human, you have a human heart, you have human emotions, you have everything that human beings have in general.you just lost the container for your soul to become human" I said

"Izumi, you helped me earlier. Of course you have a human soul... Izumi was willing to sacrifice herself so that I wouldn't get hurt.I knew that the pain I received was not worth the pain Izumi felt when she was stabbed earlier." said I held Izumi's head and raised it to look at me

"Izumi continued to protect me. If you hadn't come earlier. I would have been dead.." I said.

"Izumi can't even just be called my friend. Izumi is my savior. Izumi has a good heart" I said

"your blood is also red like a normal human being, you are no different from me" I said

"so... Izumi doesn't have to be humble to me" I said

Izumi looked at me and kept silent.His face looked very sad as if she was going to cry.I can also feel her sadness.My chest felt tight.

"Izumi.." I muttered and hugged her.
