Aira Suzuki had possessed a strange ability ever since she was a child.

Whenever she looked at someone, she could see a date floating above their head.

At first, she thought it was her imagination.

But as she grew older, she realized the terrifying truth.

The date was the day that person would die.

She tried warning people many times, but no one believed her.

Some laughed.

Some called her crazy.

Eventually, Aira learned to stay silent.

One morning, Aira woke up and walked into the bathroom.

As she looked into the mirror, her entire body froze.

Bright red words hovered above her reflection.

**"7 Days Remaining"**

Her heart skipped a beat.

"W-What...?" she whispered.

Her hands began to tremble.

She shut her eyes tightly and opened them again.

The words were still there.

**7 Days Remaining.**

Only seven days left.

Seven days until her death.

---

The rest of the day felt like a nightmare.

At school, Aira couldn't focus on anything.

Every student looked normal.

The usual death dates floated above their heads.

Some would die in 2058.

Others in 2071.

Nothing unusual.

Yet no matter where she looked, she could only think about the date above her own head.

Seven days.

Just seven days.

---

During lunch break, sudden excitement spread through the school.

"The new transfer student is here!"

Students rushed toward the entrance gate.

Curious, Aira looked up.

A tall boy walked through the school gates.

Black hair.

Cold eyes.

A calm expression that revealed nothing.

For a moment, the entire crowd seemed to disappear.

Aira's gaze moved above his head.

And her heart nearly stopped.

There was nothing there.

No date.

No numbers.

Nothing at all.

It had never happened before.

Not once.

---

The boy suddenly looked directly at her.

As if he knew exactly what she was searching for.

A faint smile appeared on his lips.

Then he quietly said,

**"You can see them too... can't you?"**

Aira's face turned pale.

How could he know?

Who was he?

And why was he the only person in the world with no death date above his head?
