I was walking along, minding my own business,when all of a sudden I hear
a crash behind me. As a turn around, the face of a young girl (around my age) turns to look at me. She shuffles around at my ankles for a second and then jumps up to match my height. 'Strange?' I think to myself. I've never seen this girl before in my life, but I feel like I've known her forever. Then my mind suddenly flicks to the thought of 'Has this girl been following me?'
All at once, the girl shoves a piece of paper into my face and wafts it around while quite obviously trying to distract me by cheerfully stating "You dropped this!"
"Umm... thanks, I guess?" I reply cautiously.
"My name's Touka. Touka Kirishima."
"Oh! Uhh... Ken Kaneki." I say.
"Pleasure to meet you!" She shakes my hand viciously.
I have no idea who she is or what she is doing here but I know that I don't like it.
"Have we met before?" I ask.
"Nope! But I've saw you in the school cafeteria today."
'So that's where I know her from.' I tell myself, but I can't help but feel we've met somewhere else too. I finally catch on. It's her scent. It's familiar in some way? Wait, it can't be true? She's a... ghoul?
I can't let her know that I've figured that out or she'll think I'm human and rip me apart in seconds. I don't know if I'll have the same scent as a full ghoul? Since I'm only half, that is.
"Oh... yeah." I casually reply.
"Well, I should be off now! Lots to do. Places to be. But nice meeting you Ken! See you round!" She screams into the distance as she runs off.
She was enthusiastic. Almost too enthusiastic.
-Sorry for the short chapter, but I will hopefully update my story tomorrow too! 😊💕
