Summary: They saved you. They were like family to you. You fell in love with them. But you found out they are a couple. You wanted them to hate you. It might have been easier for you to stop loving them. You couldn't live if they hated you. You wanted to make them hate you and then you would kill yourself... Could such a plan ever work?
"Just let me end my suffering..."
You've been given two chances to be happy in life.
But you couldn't take full advantage of any of these opportunities.
It was taken from you in two of the cruelest ways that ever existed.
Death of loved ones when you couldn't do anything, and also afterward, heartbreak...
You were a little girl when your parents were brutally killed by a creature that walked around your house.
Your mother looked that way but tried to ignore it.
Your father didn't see anything.
And you watched the creature sometimes wander around your house. Sometimes it just got bigger and bigger.
Until finally, one day when you came home from school that was nearby, you couldn't see anything in the dark. Your house was dark and cold. A disgusting smell hung in the air.
There was no neighbor next to you.
So when you heard quiet, very irregular breathing, you went in there.
Just to see your mother staring at you with wide eyes full of blood before she lightly extended her hand to you and pointed her finger at the door.
What was that supposed to mean?
You were only a child, moreover, you had never been in such a situation before...
But you knew you were supposed to run when suddenly you couldn't see the face of the woman who gave birth to you nine years ago.
Drops hit the floor and when you looked up you saw something alive there on the ceiling.
It was so dark.
But you were glad your house was dark. That everything in the living room was black, and you didn't see the crimson covering every corner.
You didn't see your father's body lying dismembered in another part of the room.
Then you knew what he started your mother's silent signal.
You were supposed to run.
Before the same thing happened to you.
You ran out of the house, avoiding the creature that did all this.
You missed your first chance at happiness then.
You wandered the sidewalks, not remembering any familiar address.
People ignored you.
No one cared about a stray and scared child like you.
All you know is that your mother suddenly disappeared.
You didn't see the blood, but you knew it was swallowed and killed.
You don't know what's up with your father. Perhaps he too suffered the same fate...
Maybe if you didn't see this creature it would be better?
Or maybe then you too would die the same way they did?
You were 9 years old. Your whole life was ahead of you. And no one has ever told you the truth about what it means to die for a human being. When your grandma died, your parents told you that she had left and couldn't come back.
You couldn't see what she looked like. Because you were a little kid. You only saw other people in the cemetery bury the urn in your family grave.
Will the same thing happen to your parents now?
Will they go away and never come back?
Is it the same as when your beloved pet dies and then is no longer around?
Parents are not pets. This is an even greater attachment to man.
But it will feel similar.
It will be so empty and sad...
And probably no one will ever fill this void for you...
You've been walking the sidewalks all night.
You didn't know the phone numbers. You wanted to earn what was right, and you wanted to go to the police station. However, you haven't even seen where it is...
You didn't walk all over town with your parents, and you didn't even have a phone to call. Not to mention money at least for some food or to make a phone call.
You walked all night, enjoying the very warm night and the good weather.
You could sit on a park bench where you always sat with your parents.
The first time they brought you there, you knew your life was going to be happy.
And now...
How could you even think of such a thing?
About the happiness you could have right now...
"Hello?" You heard the words in front of you.
You were sitting with your head resting on your backpack.
It was already morning. And you already know it. Because the sun's rays warmed your face.
Maybe someone found you?
Or maybe you have hallucinations?
There's one thing you'd like right now.
For someone to take you out of this park just like your parents did. And then you'd know you've been given another chance at happiness.
You opened your eyes to see the dark-haired man crouching in front of you, and the white-haired man standing behind him.
"Is everything OK?" he asked with a slight smile.
She looked at him with tired eyes and slightly parted lips.
You didn't say anything. You couldn't.
"What's your name?"
You grabbed your backpack.
You couldn't trust strangers.
It's so early in the morning. The sun had just begun to rise.
"Is she mute?"
You looked at the white haired boy who said that.
They seemed different to you than people.
You felt something strange about them. As if their aura was different than humans.
Similar to your mother's aura, but much more powerful.
"Satoru, shut up." He whispered to the white-haired dark-haired man.
He just shrugged.
"Is there no one around here? Maybe her parents? I don't know if it's normal for a child to ask for directions in our situation. We need to hurry up."
"Satoru, I know. However, it is so early in the morning that you will hardly find anyone here. This is not Tokyo where there are so many people. It's a smaller town."
"Okay Suguru. I just don't understand why we had to leave so early.
"Will you tell us your name?" the man in the bun asked.
They didn't look much older than you...
Mom told you not to talk to strangers...
However, you have no one...
Perhaps with her departure, her rules disappeared as well?
"...(y/n)..." you said softly.
"Hi, (y/n), I'm Suguru and that one is Satoru. Say, are your parents here?" He said with a smile.
You nodded your head to the side.
Your eyes filled with tears just thinking about it.
"Are you lost?" He asked.
You did not answer.
Could you say you're lost?
You don't have a home. The rooms are dilapidated. There is no one there.
You have nothing to help you survive.
Your clothes are a little dirty, your knees are scuffed from falling down a few times.
Your eyes are red from crying. You're tired.
You only had lunch left over when you got home. You ate it last night.
Now... You had nothing but crayons and two books in your backpack, including pencils and other things.
"Your parents must be looking for you. Do you remember the way home?"
You nodded.
You remember, but you don't want to go back there. This is no longer your home.
"I'd like to ask you something else. We'll take you home, but do you know where Mr. (l/n)'s house is?"
"Do you really think we should ask her?" White Hair asked.
"I know where it is..." you murmured with a soft sob.
And then you slowly got up.
He shook your hand as you started to cry.
Well, you must have been terrified...
When he gave you a small smile, you took his hand with your smaller one.
Putting on your backpack, you reached for the other's hand.
You always went out with your parents like this. On one side your father, on the other your mother. And they took you by the hand.
You've never felt better in any other way. You're used to something like this. And that made you feel safe.
But when you noticed that White Hair had his hands in his pockets, you weren't even going to try to reach for it.
You grabbed the dark haired man's hand with both of your hands, small tears still in your eyes.
And then suddenly you heard a sigh.
And you felt another hand grab yours.
You felt that your life could still change, didn't you?
You took them to (l/n)'s home.
To the house where you used to live.
They thanked you, and offered to go with you to your house.
The white-haired one was supposed to lead you, and the dark-haired one was supposed to enter the house.
As you held the white-haired boy's hand and watched the boy in the bun walk to the main door, you felt like you were about to cry again.
They were good to you.
They showed you that there may still be some light and happiness in your life.
That's why you don't want them going in there.
You don't want them there! You don't want them to go away like your parents too.
Because they made your eyes shine brighter.
So they too can make that sparkle in your eyes disappear as quickly as it appeared.
And you don't want your eyes to be as dull as they were yesterday...
As he waved to you, saying see you later, you pulled your hand out of Satoru's and ran over to Suguru, grabbing his wrist.
But what you said made them freeze.
"Don't go there..." You said in a shaky voice.
"Satoru will walk you home." He said placing his hand on your head. "We'll try to visit you when we're done, okay?"
"This is my home!" You said with tears on your cheeks.
They both widened their eyes.
Geto heard a soft "oh, shit" from his best friend.
They were sent here because last night they received a report of a grade 1 curse living in one of the houses, and the household is in mortal danger.
So you...
God... If you weren't home, what happened there?
Even from here they could sense the energy of the curse.
"You can't come in here! I don't want you to go and disappear like my parents!" You screamed cuddling up to his side. "There's something... I don't want anything to happen to you like them! I do not want to be alone!"
Their hearts sank when they heard that. That was awful.
What's more, you've seen curses...
That must have been even more traumatic for you.
Besides, you knew your parents were dead...
"Satoru. Take care of her." The dark haired man said before getting down on one knee in front of you. "I'll be right back, okay?"
After all, it was probably impossible for them to just leave you with the police or relatives.
Seeing curse and death is the most horrible thing...
And you see curses, so it'll be a terrible blow to you the next time you see it.
Such terrible things happen to you.
No wonder they found you outside alone.
"N-No!" Before you could grab his pants, he walked away from you and flashed a small smile before walking inside your house.
You only felt that awful feeling when the door was opened. A terrible cold that already hurt you.
You hugged the other boy who had no idea what he could do to comfort you.
He didn't know about children.
"He'll be fine." He said calmly and hesitantly stroked your hair.
You vaguely remember that time in your childhood when you suddenly appeared in them at some school.
All you remember is that the principal of the school called a lot in your presence. One girl examined you and checked your condition. And the older man who was the principal acted therapeutically with his moving stuffed animals.
None of your uncles or aunts answered. It was as if no one was there, or they just didn't care.
Several policemen helped to determine where the immediate family was staying.
Your family wasn't large. Your mother was an only child, and so was your father.
And the closest family that spoke up lived in Europe.
It would be embarrassing to fly to Japan to take care of you, even though your mother's cousin had a large family she couldn't leave behind.
And also, she wasn't that close to you because you didn't know her at all.
And then she refused to take care of you.
And that meant for you that you would live in an orphanage until someone wanted to adopt you.
But your condition wasn't the best.
Every time you saw the slightest curse, you were scared and ran to one of the boys who almost saved you.
Orphanages have amulets against the curse. However, sometimes there are fly heads that fly around harmlessly.
But you... It was something else.
They didn't feel your energy, but it's like you have it.
You easily approached them from behind and they didn't sense anything from you.
You weren't strong at all. Your energy was low.
You lived in a room in this school.
A not-so-ideal new home for a baby, but there was nothing else you felt comfortable with.
They couldn't kick you out.
Until one of your relatives speaks up, someone who lives closer, you'll stay here.
What you didn't know was that because of this, you stayed there more than the next eight years...
And never again was there even a thought of hoping that someone might volunteer to take care of you.
After researching your ancestors, all they knew was that your mother attended a Jujutsu school, however, she was a low grade sorcerer. So she could easily quit.
The rest of your ancestors are people who didn't solve puzzles.
Although there have been some sorcerers in your family tree in the past, it wasn't enough to call your family a sorcerer family.
So maybe it's best for you to live here and learn what you can do with energy?
At least you'll learn to protect yourself from curses and never be afraid of it again.
With the uncertain approval of your superiors, it has been decided that they will make you a future Jujutsu sorcerer.
Someone learned from a young age will be stronger than someone who learned it in high school.
Therefore, the superiors agreed. Hoping for the next strong sorcerer in their ranks. To at least teach you exorcism with weapons.
They were like brothers to you. Like the best babysitters you've ever had.
They were your second chance at happiness in life.
They were like family to you, and you loved them.
You knew that since your birth family didn't want you, you could have found other loved ones.
At least they wanted you.
At least you cared about them.
You got closer every year.
You understood that they weren't old because when you were 15 they were 23. They still haven't changed at all.
And that was probably the moment you started seeing them as something more.
You haven't met people your age. You didn't know the ideal of family and love.
You just knew you wanted to be with them forever.
They were everything to you. Family, friends. Until they finally turned into your first love.
The first love that lasted a very long time.
A love that lasted even after your death.
When you were 17, in the second year of Jujutsu High School, you watched in awe as these two twenty-five-year-olds train or do something else.
You would never get to the level they have.
But you didn't mind.
It would be important for you that they are and will always be close to you.
"I want to tell them... But how am I supposed to tell them that I fell in love with them?” You muttered to yourself as you sat on the steps near the field where they were training.
They both waved at you and smiled.
You saw Satoru jumping on Suguru's back to make you look at them and smile.
They were close to each other.
You also wanted them to be even closer to you.
Maybe they won't reject you? They're 25, and you know they've had relationships before.
But you doubt they'll hurt you that much when they reject you
After all, they do everything for you.
They act so perfect for you. They are always with you. As if they were closer than family and friends.
You felt the love they radiated for you.
But you had some doubts...
You've lived in a dorm since you can remember. But you always came to their house on the weekends.
You don't see anything strange that they live together since they've been friends for almost 10 years.
Did you know that today they are going shopping in the city. Probably to the mall.
You planned to go there too, and confess your feelings to them on the right occasion, when they were happy.
However...
However, you couldn't...
Even when you wanted to approach them when they were sitting in the cafe on the other side.
You held your small cup of soda which you finished and threw it in the bin.
It was a bit corny, but you bought some cherry soft heart cookies. Decorated with cream and most importantly, with hearts.
You wanted to eat it with them.
They haven't seen you.
All the things you bought were in your bag.
And later...
As you were about to approach them, you saw that they were getting closer to each other.
They sat in the corner of the cafe where no one could see them.
You never expected to see two people you love kiss each other smiling.
The lips you wanted to kiss now connected.
But it wasn't your kiss.
Satoru was kissing Suguru.
They were smiling.
And that means... that you would never have a chance that they wouldn't reject you.
There was no way they could love you because they loved each other.
Your smile quickly faded into a sad grimace.
Your heart sank as you felt betrayed. The friendly warmth was replaced by a chill that took over your body.
And what you feared will happen again.
The old sparkle has gone from your eyes.
Your eyes have become dead. Without emotions.
The only emotion was tears that suddenly started to run down your cheeks.
Your second chance at happiness has begun to fade.
Like a candle flame that slowly goes out. However, your flame was slowly extinguished.
Until there is a very small flame left that seems to be about to go out.
You had a bit more luck.
Because they were still in your life.
But it couldn't be the same anymore...
you wanted to forget. You wanted to stop loving them...
You left as fast as you could and sat by the back door of the building.
you wanted to forget...
You didn't want to love them anymore...
You wish this never happened...
You wished you could replace those feelings with others.
"Excuse me... Are you okay?"
You looked up at the boy in front of you.
His expression seemed a little concerned.
Maybe you could replace your feelings for them with your feelings for someone else?
"I don't think we should have kissed in that coffee shop for so long."
"Sugu, I wanted to!"
"I don't deny it, but I had a feeling people were watching."
"Don't worry about that!" He said putting his hand on his shoulders. "By the way, (y/n) wanted to tell us something."
"Right. That's why we go to her. I'm curious what she meant. She seemed serious and a little tense." Geto said, letting Gojo do what he wanted. "Maybe she has a boyfriend?"
"No way! I will not allow it!"
"Satoru, I wouldn't want that either... But this..." he murmured more quietly.
Suddenly, the white-haired man's hands grabbed his cheeks.
"Suguru, she can't have a boyfriend! I wouldn't survive that!"
"I know..."
"She's like family to us. We love her as family... right?"
For a year they started telling each other that they love you but as a family.
They felt love for you. But they tried to think about it as much as possible.
That you love them like family and they love you.
Even if their hearts might beat differently around you.
They didn't want something you wouldn't want either...
They had a complicated relationship...
They weren't boyfriends, but they were close.
They kissed, hugged. Sometimes they even fucked. They liked each other. Since Gojo at some point realized that Geto was his first true love.
And Geto accepted it.
They didn't mind because they had such a friendly relationship.
But they also did not reject the possible love for a woman.
You could easily tell they were Bisexual.
They paid no attention to it.
They had been together for several years. But at some point, you appeared in their hearts. In a romantic sense.
They both loved you.
But they rejected it because they didn't want to hurt you.
They preferred to tell themselves that this is love like family.
"I would like to tell her something more someday and not just be with her as someone for whom she is a family..." The dark-haired man said.
"Suguru..." pecked him on the mouth. "...Let's hear what she has to say. And then we'll plan what we can do. We can spend time with her today! We've got gifts!"
However, when they entered your room with a smile, you were not there.
It was hard for you. That's all. This whole situation. So suddenly to see it all.
You've already made some money as a sorcerer, and managed to stay one night in a hotel room.
Besides, the boy you met was very nice.
And you hoped he'd help you forget...
You didn't want to go back to your "home". You had to rethink everything.
You didn't come back until the next day. Going to your room after class.
But before you could get to the door, you felt a tug on your arm.
And you were arrested.
You looked at the two tall figures in front of you.
In the mirror this morning you saw that your eyes hadn't changed since yesterday.
Still as dead as then.
You looked at their faces as they looked furious. But you still can't forget the image of them that broke your heart...
"Where have you been? Do you realize what you've done?" Gojo asked you, holding your arm quite firmly.
"First you disappear without a word and don't come back at night, and now you just want to leave without any explanation? We were so worried about you!" Geto said louder.
You looked at them with your eyes.
Too blinded by anger to see the change in your eyes.
"You left us speechless! Do you think it's okay?!" White Hair yelled at you.
You put your head down.
"Why didn't you even you picked up the phone?!"
"My battery is dead..." you replied quietly, and took your phone out of your pocket, showing that it wouldn't turn on.
It didn't calm them down at all.
"Where have you been?!"
You looked at Suguru who stood next to you.
"Are you really that irresponsible after all these years here?! It's dangerous to suddenly disappear without a word! Do not you understand?!"
"I understand..."
You couldn't speak any louder because you felt like your voice was about to break.
"Will you explain anything to us?!"
"...I didn't want to go back to my room in the dark... I had a late train..."
"Where have you been?!"
"I wanted to do some shopping in one of the stores, and I missed the train that was going this way. I had to wait... and just spent the night in a hotel..."
"Why you-?!"
The dark haired man stopped his friend before they could continue screaming after seeing your body tremble slightly.
"(y/n)... I'm sorry... We got carried away..." He said as he hugged you.
"We were just so worried about you..." Geto added, hugging you from behind.
You want to forget about feelings for them...
You don't want to pretend that everything is fine...
You don't want to wear a fake smile...
You just want to forget you ever loved them...
Until you get rid of these feelings, your sparkle in your eyes will not return.
And when you look at them with dead eyes, they can understand that something is wrong...
You tried your best...
You've had several boyfriends.
You've tried everything.
Maybe something would make you forget your love for them?
You've been looking for this for three years...
Or maybe there is no way to stop loving them?
All you could do was stare blankly at your pictures and blur your face in each one.
Looking for an idea on how to forget in this way...
If they weren't so loving and kind... Maybe it would be easier then?
Maybe you can try to piss them off...
You want to end your suffering now...
Now...
Maybe it will pass through more suffering?
Maybe you can make you suffer even more, but then you'll forget? Maybe then the love for them will die down. will disappear...
You want them to hate you...
Then when they are mean to you, it will be easier for you to get rid of those feelings...
You won't be able to live knowing that they hate you...
But you prefer it...
No plan is perfect...
You just want your suffering to go away...
That they will hate you will also be suffering.
But it will be easier for you to remember that they don't want to know you. That they don't need you in their lives. That you're just a hindrance.
That you are not family. So that they think that you will be unnecessary ballast. And for them to let go of their ties to you.
But when that happens, you won't want to live...
You don't want to anymore... If they hate you, you'll want to disappear right away... You'll want to do something that won't make you think what to do next.
You'll make them hate you, then you'll kill yourself...
This way will be the easiest for you.
For you all.
When they hate you, they won't mourn you...
They won't be sad when you die. They won't care. Because then you'll be the one who ruined their joy...
You looked at the photos you took of them secretly. Watching this, you became more and more convinced of your plan.
They don't need you.
They never loved you.
You would be an obstacle in their relationship...
They would never accept your feelings...
You will destroy their trust in you. You will kill their ties to you. You'll make them not want to know you. And then you'll disappear, taking all their hatred of you with them.
You're giving your second chance at happiness...
You let the flame and the candle disappear.
To make them think that taking you to safety, helping you and raising you was the biggest mistake they ever made...
You'd kill yourself now... But you don't want them to cry. Now you are still close to them...
When they hate you, they won't care about your future...
They won't be looking for you. They won't stop you.
You'll be able to commit suicide without feeling guilty about leaving them in despair.
Nobody will cry for you...
Because you gave your happiness to two people.
And your happiness existed as long as there was that sparkle in your eyes...
Now there's no way it can come back to your eyes.
All you could think about was what to do.
And you may have been preparing yourself for the cruel words of the people you love.
You could have prepared yourself for the hate raining down on you, and your imminent death.
You'll stab the men you love in the back, only to forget that your second chance at happiness is gone just like your first...
They can throw you out of your "house". They can trample your pride.
And you won't worry about it anymore.
Because you won't need this abbreviated life any longer.
You've already experienced the best of everything.
All the worst has begun, and soon you will end it.
All emotions, all memories will disappear.
You don't need a life.
Let them hate you so you can end your life without hesitation.
You put a smile on your face when I got presents from them.
You go to the party where Satoru was invited as the head of the Gojo clan.
You're going with him.
You got beautiful things that you liked.
It was nice.
But you have to give them those expensive things right after the party.
This will be your last party ever.
They will surely regret spending money on you after what you do to them...
That's why you prepared everything they ever bought you and put it in one box that was on your bed.
All the clothes, phones, money you got as pocket money. Jewelry. Every single thing that was bought with their money.
A lot has accumulated over the years.
And now everything was stacked in a box. Even in two.
You cleaned everything and washed your clothes.
Every single thing was taken care of.
For whatever you've ever destroyed, you've also put in the money you've earned. As compensation for that, it has been destroyed and they will no longer be able to use it.
They can sell jewelry. So does the phone. Clothes can be returned.
You won't need it any longer.
There will be no trace of you in their lives.
You pulled out the picture you had in the frame with them.
You scissored you when you were among them in the picture. You threw the strip of paper with you in the trash can, and taped the two parts of the photo together, leaving it as a photo of both of them.
Without you.
Your room was clean. Empty cabinets.
All you had was the clothes you once bought yourself to change out of that dress and put it away.
You also put the same cookies you wanted to give them on the bed.
Cherry hearts...
They'll probably throw it away, but you could at least try.
They'll probably spit on your grave if they care what happened to you.
You won't give them back anything for how much time they spent with you, but you'll give them back that the person they hate won't show up again.
They will know that you no longer even breathe the same earthly air as they do.
They'll be on one side, you'll be on the second.
They will walk on the ground and you will lie underground.
You wrote a little note and stuck it on the cardboard.
And there you just wrote that these are all the things you ever got from them. And that you give it back to them.
You silently left the room, closing it.
You were hiding your expression.
You were an adult, but they wouldn't let you drink champagne or wine anyway.
They didn't want you to get drunk...
You wanted to somehow live through these last moments where you can even pretend to smile.
Your last hours of life will be the same as your life for these three years.
So full of fake happiness.
You didn't know that now was supposed to be the end of your suffering and the beginning of new happiness.
You've already decided what to do.
And you won't accept changes to your plan.
You'll just make them hate you and then you'll be dead.
What you didn't know was that they just realized they love you romantically.
You're going to regret that you did, but you plugged the flash drive with the recording you made into the projector that was on the table.
You then moved away from them.
Not wanting to see how they will feel when they see this...
The light went out, and you saw the projector turned on.
Then, with tears in your eyes, you left the room, barefoot running to the parking lot.
Ijichi drove you to school and then drove you back.
You said goodbye to him nice and long. It wasn't weird for you. He's always been nice to you, and you didn't want to leave him without saying goodbye.
You put your beautiful new shoes next to the bed and put the dress on and put it in the box just like everything else.
You cried knowing what your loved ones are going through now...
You couldn't look at their faces when they saw that.
You put on your clothes and left. Going to the place you wanted to be at this time today.
The two men's eyes widened as they saw a video that showed several photos of them kissing one after the other. Later as they walk holding hands and as they hug.
Pictures of them sleeping in bed together, hugging each other.
They heard whispers and laughter. People were pointing at them and looking at them.
They were furious and ashamed.
Nobody knew!
Who could do such a thing.
The man who was organizing the party turned off the projector, pulling out the flash drive.
They wanted out.
They weren't that embarrassed because no one would laugh at the strongest sorcerers.
But they wanted out.
For your own good.
But when they looked for you, they couldn't find you.
Gojo pulled out his phone while they were outside waiting for you to answer the phone.
As soon as your small voice appeared, he immediately began to speak.
"(y/n)? Where are you?"
"In the room..." You replied calmly.
You tried your best to reduce the noise of the wind around you.
"But-"
"I felt tired and asked Ijichi to drive me."
"You could have told us." he said as he indicated to a friend that they could go.
"You guys had fun..."
They started driving and the phone was placed on Satoru's lap as they both listened to what you were saying.
"It wasn't that much fun..." he muttered.
You didn't answer them because you know what happened.
"Our ridiculous photos suddenly appeared on the projector..." he said nervously. "I'm so angry...I would do anything, but we'd get into even more trouble..."
"I know what is going on..."
Gojo thought about what you said.
"Hmm? What do you mean?" Geto asked, looking at the street.
It was quiet for a moment.
But telling the whole truth was in your plan.
Even if it might hurt.
It's going to hurt like hell, but it'll be over in a while.
So you dared to speak.
"I did it, I took those photos secretly and planned this incident." You said calmly.
Their eyes will widen.
Geto somehow tried to stay calm, unlike Gojo who started screaming.
"What do you mean by that?!" he shouted. "Why would you do that?! Are you aware of your actions and the consequences that Geto and I will face?!"
The last sentence was broken as his eyes began to roll from his eyes.
He couldn't believe you could do something like that.
He didn't want to believe.
But you said it like it was the whole truth.
"Why?!" He screamed putting his hand over his eyes.
Geto was holding back tears with difficulty.
You wanted too. But you've been crying since you got to your room.
"Why did you do that? We trusted you! We thought you didn't know that about us! Just give us an answer!!!"
You heard Suguru's words harsh but just as sad pouring out of his mouth.
You sat quietly for a while until you were finally able to tell them something you've wanted for a long time.
But you knew it wasn't a wish that could be fulfilled.
"... I fell in love with you... But I knew it was impossible for you to ever love me if you loved each other... So I–"
"That's not something you do to the people you love!" Satoru moaned as he couldn't stop any tear that spilled out.
You wanted to finish your explanations.
You knew you were going to get a wave of contempt from them...
"I couldn't stop loving you even if I tried. I dated other guys to see if I could stop loving you. However, that did nothing... I still loved you. I couldn't hate you... So I thought I'd make you hate me, and maybe then I'd somehow stop feeling this about you... I always wanted love from you, but I didn't want to disturb you! I know I've always been a stumbling block for you! You never treated me differently, and yet I fell in love with you! Not family love! But it still doesn't make sense! I didn't want you to reject me! So I just threw myself away for you...!"
Your words touched their hearts painfully.
You calmed down a bit and started talking again.
"And you know what the worst thing about all of this is? It's that I could never hate you... You both saved me, and I'm forever grateful for that, but I'm tired of pretending.. I'm done with the lie. With a fake smile that I've had for three years... I just want to be with my dead parents and finally find peace... I've lost both chances of happiness... I want to sleep now... Without this pain... I'm sorry but it's goodbye... I'm glad I could say it to you for the last time... I'm not angry that you hate me... Goodbye forever..."
Your voice sounded so broken and quiet.
They were both about to say something when you hung up.
Leaving them with wide, tear-filled eyes.
What was that supposed to mean?
They couldn't think much about it. They just knew that if they didn't hurry, they'd never see you again.
You were not there...
You were nowhere...
The room was clean and tidy... It's as if you've never lived there.
Most of your things are gone, and what was from them was on the bed.
Geto looked sadly at the piece of paper.
And he felt a strong pull on his shoulder.
He looked at his weeping friend.
"We have to find her!" he shouted. "I don't want to lose her! Not like this! Just do not!"
Running into the forest, they began to search.
As well as a few others they might have found along the way.
Curses and sorcerers were looking for you.
Geto was practically ready to send half of his curse arsenal to give them one order. For them to find you.
They couldn't sense your energy.
There could be two reasons for this. That your energy isn't that much, and you're also able to hide it.
Or your energy is already disappearing with your life...
The dark-haired man suddenly stood still as the curse gave him an image of what it had seen.
His knees almost gave out under him.
They were late...
As they both appeared next to you, your body lay motionless on the ground.
They ran up to you, looking at the thirty-meter-high rise from which you probably jumped, landing against a vertical stone wall.
Gojo let out a weeping howl filled with pain as he grabbed your body and turned you onto your back. Feeling your body limp and soft.
Like your bones don't hold your body.
Your eyes with tears at the corners were slightly open. Blood was oozing from his mouth and nose.
As he placed your body in his lap, he felt and saw your blood running down his hands.
Your face suddenly turned red in some places, your neck was covered with drops of blood.
Your chest and sides were soft. He couldn't feel the bones. It was as if everything was shattered.
Your head covered in blood from the back.
Your legs are broken. Your hands.
Blood flowing from the wound on your face.
Most likely you hit the branches of the tree before falling to the ground.
Which prevented your body from completely disfiguring. Totally breaking everything.
The white shirt was covered in your blood as Gojo hugged you, crying in pain of loss.
Something he had never wanted to see was now in front of his eyes.
Your still warm but immobile body...
You were so selfish doing it.
Have you thought about them at all?
How could you even think they would hate you?!
White Hair's body trembled as his hands tightened around you.
Geto stared petrified at the two people he had ever loved like this in his life.
Tears and blood.
Your dead eyes that look the way they did for three years...
When he came to his senses from freezing, he wiped his tears with his sleeve and ran to the other side, pulling Gojo's body away from you. And put his ear to your bloody chest.
Listening to see if your heart was still beating, he watched as Satoru wiped the blood from your face with his fingers before resting his forehead against yours.
There was nothing Geto could hear.
Nothing in you was moving.
He didn't hear your heartbeat. He didn't feel it.
He pulled away with clenched jaw and looked at Satoru's uncovered eyes.
Dilated pupils.
He was sure his own didn't look normal.
"Why... What... Why?!!" groaned Gojo. "She was supposed to be ours all the time... She was supposed to be just for us... We were supposed to be with her always! So why do we have to get this now?!"
Geto said nothing, but cursed in his mind.
"She was always meant to be ours... Only for us! It's our fault! My fault! How could I ever take my eyes off her... We should always be there for her! Maybe then... Sob... Maybe then it wouldn't have happened!"
"Can you teleport in this state...?" Geto asked, clenching his fingers on your limp hand. His own tears were slowly drying on his cheeks as he had a tiny hope.
"Suguru?" murmured the second, looking at the dark-haired man as he held you tighter in his arms.
"Go to Shoko as soon as possible...! I won't accept it until I hear from her that there's nothing I can do! Why couldn't I do anything?!"
"Suguru..." he said as he stood with you in his arms. "When we get her back, it will be different. I will do everything to get her back... I don't know if it will work, if not... Without her, I will fuck up this world. Apart from you, I have nothing here..."
"Take her to Shoko! I don't want her to disappear from our lives!"
The next time he looked ahead, Gojo was gone...
With tears in his eyes and on his cheeks he promised himself one thing...
"If we get her back, I will never let her leave the house again in my life... Never without us..."
When Suguru got there a few minutes later, he saw your body lying on the hard bed while Shoko runs around sticking needles into your skin and attaching anything necessary to see if there's still a chance.
They could say they feel the same pain as you do.
Seeing each of your wounds was as painful for them as it was for you.
The woman was running around looking at your wounds.
She doesn't know if resuscitation is worth it. If your spine is crushed, you don't stand a chance...
She put her hands under your body, tracing your back with her fingers.
If she wasn't mistaken, your spine was intact. She couldn't tell about the damage that might exist inside...
There was so little blood flowing from your open wounds... Your skin was so pale.
This is what the girl she used to play with when you were little and you came to visit them.
Now you were probably dead on her operating table.
"Shoko...?"
"...I don't know if that makes any sense..." She said softly and pushed her fingers lightly against your crushed ribs. "Her limbs are broken, she is not breathing, her heart is not beating... I don't know if her spine is damaged or not. The ribs are crushed, the pelvis fractured, as are the hipbone and collarbone. Internal organs damaged... One lobe of the skull broken..."
"But it can be cured!"
Gojo looked at her with dark eyes.
"You can... But would it make sense to treat a corpse?"
"As long as there's a chance... Do whatever it takes to bring her back to us! She must be with us!"
"Shut the fuck up..." She snarled and stared at the monitor with your pulse, her eyes wide.
It was always the same.
Almost a straight line.
Almost...
There were minimalist deviations from a straight line.
As the woman was reaching for things from the cupboards, they came closer to you to touch you. Just to see you.
"get the fuck out! Get out of here!" She screamed quickly and pulled you closer to the light of the large lamp.
The last chance to see your smile was getting smaller every second.
And they...
They wanted to say goodbye to you like they should before it happened. Or be on time.
Then they wouldn't lose you...
Black clothes were their everyday life.
Mourning color.
They hated life for the fact that even if they save millions of lives, they take away the one most important to them.
The first days were the hardest.
They couldn't smile at all.
Or maybe the black clothes were accidental? The random color of their outfit?
Their house was so dead. You always came to them.
And now you couldn't come.
Because you were here all the time.
It was a miracle that your heart was still beating, even so lightly.
Is it because they wanted you to be immune to everything when you're fighting curses?
Perhaps that was it.
The heart of someone who has committed suicide often beats a little longer, even after everyone thinks they have died.
A person can lose consciousness, lose his breath. But the heart can still work until all life processes are finished.
In your case it was.
Everything except your heart and brain has died.
Your heart beats, your lungs rise and fall.
Your bones are whole, and so is your spine. Everything is in place.
Thanks to this tiny chance of your life.
Reverse Cursed Technique will fix everything...
Apart from a broken heart and psyche.
She didn't have many people who committed suicide to save.
Were it not for the tree branches slowing you down a bit and you fell onto the grass, your spine wouldn't have been crushed.
If all goes well, you'll look at them again someday.
Right after you wake up from your coma.
You was in a hospital in Tokyo for a month. The best hospital for you. The best equipped room.
At least one of them was with you every day. Sometimes both of them would come and sit with you for a few hours.
It was terrifying for the nurses who passed by there. Seeing two men look at you with a smile while talking to you.
A lot of people talk to coma patients.
However, this was something else.
They told you they would never let you do something like that again. That you'll never be anywhere but them again.
That they'll never let you go again.
When your condition was stable enough, you were transferred to their home.
Where your dream continued until after almost another month.
They changed every day.
One day, Gojo was at home with you while Geto was working, and the next day, Geto was at home while Gojo was working.
Counting the days until you wake up.
And when it happened, Geto was at home.
As he saw your eyelids twitch, he called Gojo and they both looked at you, waiting for this moment.
And when your eyes opened, you weren't thrilled to be alive.
But it was different...
You saw their tears of happiness as they sat next to you.
And your oxygen mask was taken off when Satoru pinned your lips to his. To make space for Suguru later.
What was that supposed to mean?
They put a plastic mask over your face to make it easier for you to breathe.
"Welcome home, honey."
You looked at them. Your body is full of fatigue.
"Don't worry. We'll never let you do that again."
"You'll never leave again. It's safe for you here."
"Here you will receive our love."
"Because we love you."
"Do not get up. I'll carry you." Your body was lifted, and the white-haired man carried you to the bathroom, placing you in a large bathtub, next to Suguru's chest.
Then he undressed himself and stepped into the water, positioning your legs above his.
You reached for the sponge with a weak hand, but they were faster.
Ieiri said that you will be in bed for a very long time.
And you'll never go back to strenuous physical exertion, or especially to being a sorcerer.
"We will never let you be alone. One of us will always be with you. Or both of us."
"...Why...?" You murmured softly with your head resting on Suguru's shoulder.
"Why?" the dark-haired man repeated before they giggled softly.
Satoru grabbed your chin and moved closer to you.
"Because we can't trust you after this, baby." He said with a smile.
You knew that what you did was in their trust. That you wanted to kill yourself.
They had nothing else against you.
But they kept telling you that they love you.
You started to believe it...
It was possible for your sparkle in your eyes to reappear.
It's like you've been given a third chance at happiness in life.
NO.
This wasn't another chance.
It was the one you had.
And they saved that chance for you.
You were supposed to be happy now...
They don't leave you one step.
They only let you get up and walk the moment they are next to you and you hold on to them.
You are so weak...
You're having a hard time.
Shoko said you'd be better than what you are now, but it'll never be perfect.
Even after being treated with a reverse cursed technique.
Your body was already dying, and here's a sign of it.
You will still need to be with them for your support.
And they won't let you do anything without them anymore.
Baths, meals, sleep.
It was too early for you to take you to the higher heights of a relationship. More than just hugging and kissing, it needed you to be a little stronger in the body than you are now.
They explained their relationship to you.
They love you the most, but for years they have liked each other.
You accept it.
Now you even enjoy when they kiss and then run to kiss you even longer.
Most of the time you woke up with them on either side of you. They held your hands and hugged you. They kept smiling at you.
And all this made your smile come back after almost 365 days.
And you looked at them with a twinkle in your eyes. With love.
