"Oh! I remember that" Emma said in a happy tone. "Fufufu, Ray was the one who made Conny--- AWW RAY?! Why did you throw me a pillow?" Emma glared at Ray while caressing her face.

"Tsk"

"Conny moved into Ray's room when she was three. She always cries that time because she used to sleep in Mom's room." Norman suddenly let out a loud laugh. "Ray brought her a blanket to make Conny peacefully asleep."

"Yeah! I was surprised when Ray admits it, Hahahah"

Everyone laughed when a frown appeared on Ray's expression. However, my face became confused because I don't know what they were talking about. Seeing that they are laughing happily together, they made me calm down

I'm still confused about what exactly had happened to me but...

"Look, Conny stopped crying!" A boy with a dark brown complexion said. He smiled at me as he patted my head gently. "Don't cry again, okay?"

I nodded my head "Uh-huh, Thank you Don" I said unconsciously replied while glancing at his face.

"Would you like to sleep with Mama Isabella?" The woman who is carrying me asked. 

"No monsters?" I asked.

"No monsters" The woman assured me. "Shall we go now?" she asked me. I quickly nodded my head as I hugged her tightly. She was about to walk away, However. "Alright, kids you should sleep now. Today was a special day" Mama told them.

"Huh why?" I looked at my Mama's face with confusion.

"It's your birthday" A boy with the name Ray announced. "Here, don't forget this," Ray said as he handed me my stuffed toy bunny again. "Happy birthday"

"Today... My birthday...?" I asked.

"Oh? Conny forgot her birthday?" 

"Today's your birthday Conny. That's the reason you were excited yesterday!"

"Happy Birthday Conny!"

"Happy Birthday!"

Everyone started to greet me.

Ah, right, I am Conny...

Mama Isabella took a deep sigh. "My Conny must be really terrified," She said. "Happy Birthday, Conny"

•••••

It all started on September 3 at 3:00 a.m. 

At first, I was confused because I woke up in a strange situation. I was overwhelmed because, after a horrifying dream, a strange memory suddenly came into my mind. I was afraid so I cried and called for my Mama Isabella.

However, As the hours pass by, that memory started to sink into my brain which made me more aware of my surroundings. 

I really became Conny.

A cannon-fodder from the anime series 'The Promised Neverland'

"Happy Birthday, Conny!" Don said as he patted my head.

I give him a happy smile. "Thank you, Don!"

I don't know what exactly happened to me, but according to my memory, my name is Y/N and I was a 17-year-old woman who lives in Manila. In short, I was a Filipino who loves to watch animes.

I probably died and got reincarnated as Conny...

But why Conny?! A girl who will be eaten by a Demon?!

I kept touching my bouncy cheeks while staring at the large field. "I became a kawaii girl who will become a food for those demons. What type of bullish is this?" I frowned while as I ask myself. "For peter's sake, I will become a food. This cute face will become a food! This is cruelty!"

I took a deep sighed. "How cruel..."

Although I wanted to cry like I did this morning, I can't and I won't. My maturity finally sunk into my brain, I have a shame and crying won't solve anything.

"Don, I wanna play Tag!" I suddenly shouted.

"Alright, Let's invite them to play" Don replied to me.

Should I just accept my fate? 

I mean Conny's death will be the starting point of the story. If Emma and Norman won't witness my death, they won't be able to find out the real situation of this world. My death is necessary for this story.

But I don't want to die either and it's not like it was the only way to find out about the 'Demons' either. 

I have to survive, but how?

I glanced at Emma, Ray, and Norman who were happily talking under a tree.

If I will do better with my test scores, they might suspect me and someone will take my place for the shipment. My conscience won't probably take it, just thinking about it made me feel guilty. 

A child who will die in my stead...

Well, my shipment is still far. I could still think of a better plan.

But for now...

I hugged the bunny in hands tighly."EMMA! NORMAN! RAY!" I shouted. I took Don's hand as I happily run towards Emma's location.

Don shrieked when we started to run. "Wait! Conny! Be careful!"

I laughed happily while waving my hands at them. "Don wanted to challenge Norman again!"

"Huh? What?"

"Let's Play Tag!"

I wanted to practice playing tag. It might help me in the future.
