*Now*
“All right!” Leo snapped. “Who the hell are you and naze can I hear you
in
my head?!?” “Dozo forgive me,” the voice said. “My name is Kana and I’m
in
your body.” Leo froze coldly. “Come again.” he said. Kana swallowed
hard.
“This will be hard to explain.” she mumbled. “Nani do you mean?!?” Leo
snapped.
Kana took a deep breath and began her story.
“I
am
a water nymph,” she began. “I also came from a big family with my mom
and
many sisters. We all lived in the rivers of Edo. All through my
childhood, I heard stories of love that ended in heartbreak. So, I did
my best not to
fall in love.”
“O-kay…” Leo said. “Nani does this have to do with me?” “A lot.” Kana
answered. “I was trying not to fall in love until I saw you.” Leo
snorted. “Nani’s wrong?”
she asked. “Love.” Leo said. “Nani a bunch of bull shit! My mom was in
“love”
with my dad and looked where it got them. Divorced and living shitty
lives!!!”
“But I mean it when I say I love you!” Kana argued. Leo snorted again
and
kept quiet.
“Since I first saw you,” Kana kept on. “I watched and followed you
around until you died.” The water nymph broke down into tears. Leo just
sat there. “So?” he asked. “So?” Kana repeated. “SO?!? I was so
depressed about your death!!!!” Leo became stunned in silence. “After
that cruel boy shot you,” Kana kept on. “I was so depressed that I
wanted to be close to you before your soul fully left your body. So I
lied down on top of it, mouth to mouth, arms around you, and legs
wrapped around you. I stayed there until I fell asleep.” “And you awoke
inside of my body.” Leo finished. “Hai.” Kana said.
“Hey Kana.” Leo said. “Hai?” she asked. “If you could get in my body,
can’t you just get out?” the boy asked. Leo heard sobbing in his head.
“Don’t tell
me you can’t get out!” he exclaimed. “I don’t even know how I got in.”
Kana
said. “Oh goodie!” Leo said sarcastically. Then they heard footsteps
coming
down the hall. “Who’s that?” Kana whispered. “Dunno.” Leo replied.
“Just
keep quiet.” The nymph silently agreed. Leo kept quiet as well. They
waited
for their fate.
Finally, the doorknob turned. Leo watched closely. An old lady was
watching him closely. Both kept quiet for minutes. “Hi.” Leo said at
last. “Oh good, you’re awake.” she replied. “Awake?” Leo asked. “When
my husband and I found
you on the side of the road, you were in a pool of blood and near
death.”
the old lady explained. “But I am dead.” Leo mumbled. “Nani?” the woman
asked.
“Oro?” Leo spoke up. “Oh nothing.” “I just came up here to check on
you.”
the old lady said. “All right.” Leo said. “Oyasumi nasai.” the woman
said.
“Ban.” Leo called back. Then the old lady left the room. Leo lied back
down
onto the bed. He was planning to the before sunrise.
