When Rui woke up, Tsukasa wasn't there.
He looked all over the room, the HOUSE. He wasn't there. Either his mom.
Rui was alone.

" what is going on- where is everybody?

" did i miss something?? "

He went to Kamiyama High school to check if Tsukasa was there.
Because he just could be late to school.

But, not only Tsukasa wasn't there.
The school was... empty .
Not a soul entered the building today.
And there was no one outside.

Like, not only near school. Everywhere

He walked and walked

Everywhere we possibly could

In hope of just finding one alive person

He looked in all cafe's windows, just regular windows,
literally everywhere.

The time was 10 am already. Still no one is there.
" what is happening... "
He said while standing on the 'live' street. Now you can't even call it 'live' since there is no people.

For Rui it was very peaceful and at the same time disturbing.

Being alone for him wasn't a punishment at all.
It's just that he was without Tsukasa.

He was just wandering streets as suddenly, he couldn't move.
He was stuck in 1 place.
No sounds. No any small movements. Well, any movements at all

What actually is going on!?
He thought to himself

As he was deep into his thoughts, someone was coming his way.
The small, quiet steps got closer
And closer.

Ah, finally someone alive!
Rui thought

Well, he was indeed right.
But, when the person got closer, whispered into his ear,

" Finally, it's your turn, Kamishiro "

And then, the person started to choke Rui.

Then,

He got stabbed.

Rui woke up in his bed,
gasping for air, and being in cold sweat. He still couldn't understand what was happening.
He was still kind of choking.

Tsukasa was right near him, holding Rui's hand pretty tightly. He was scared and at the same time pretty happy.
Then, Rui caught his breath. He turned to Tsukasa and hugged him. He was shaking. Like,  really shaking.
" Rui, i called your name more than 15 times already. What has gone into you?.. " Tsukasa asked, very concerned about the situation.
" I....I....don't know.... " Rui's voice sounded like he saw a ghost. So, Tsukasa tried to comfort him.
" Was it a nightmare? Because you really were into the dream so you didn't even hear or felt what was going on " He was worried about Rui.
" Yeah, it was " Rui said now with his usual tone.
" I won't be asking what it was because i can understand you don't want to ta- "
Rui just kissed his forehead.
" Just, please, don't ever leave me, Tsukasa-kun... "
Tsukasa cleared his throat , red like a tomato fr
" I will always be here for you, like you have been for me "

It was Saturday

Rui and Tsukasa have been hanging out together all day because none of them had other friends besides Emu and Nene ( also Toya for Tsukasa )

They were laughing. They were getting knowing each other better.
Until one moment

" Tsukasa-kun, i never knew you had such funny situations in your life " Rui laughed

" Yeah and there is ev- " Tsukasa stopped talking in the middle of the sentence.

" Tsukasa-kun? You're okay? You look pale "

" Ah, yeah, sorry. I just need to do something in my room "

" Can i go wit- " Rui got interrupted by Tsukasa

" sorry, but it's a private thing, i hope you understand "

" Oh... I understand. Just come here when you are done, okay? "

He didn't get an answer, Tsukasa was already running to his room

" Fufu~ What did I do that Tsukasa is kind of avoiding me?... " Rui just sat in the living room, patiently waiting Tsukasa to come back, and continue what they did.

Meanwhile Tsukasa....

I CAN'T DEAL WITH IT ANYMORE

I CAN'T DEAL WITH ALL THE THOUGHTS

WHY CAN'T THEY JUST DISAPPEAR !

I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE THOUGHTS ANYMORE

" shut up Tsukasa, shut up, shut up shut SHUT UP!! "
" you DO care about the thoughts, YOU DO "

NO YOU DON'T, TSUKASA

YOU DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE THOUGHTS

YOU DO NOT CARE ABOUT SAKI

...

" SHUT THE FUCK UP!! I DO CARE ABOUT SAKI!! "
" just, SHUT UP!!!! " The scream was so loud that Rui came running to the room

" Tsukasa-kun what ar- "

" SHUT UP TSUKASA, SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP!!!!! "

Then, Tsukasa was crying and shaking in the corner of the room.

" Tsukasa.... " Rui came closer to Tsukasa to look at him.
What was he dealing with?
He sat near him, hugging him with one hand and writing on his phone with another.

WANDEHOIS!!!!
