No one will understand me. The love of parents.
I miss them. My overprotective mother. Kind father. Although I never got them. I am living a second life.
I am addressing it as second life cause I just remembered my past life. Or maybe one of those past life.
I was a Indian from earth. A bangali who came to Kolkata for jobs. A middle class boy with lots of dreams.
I wanted to be rich, powerful, handsome. But I wasn't any of them.
In fact I was a fatty, bullied, poor guy.
Well then one day in rail track of our village I died.
And that's the end of my life1.
In this life I am... a boy too.
Well I don't know if I transmigrate in the middle in this body. Or I was born as this body.
Cause I remember my past life a few days ago suddenly after a dream.
But I have memories of my birth in this world as a orphan. And growing up in orphanage.
Well that's not the most important part. The important part is that it is game that I am inside.
The soul academy.
My favourite game. The story start when you die in this world. So I am in process.
I am not doing suicide. Cause it is counted as sin. And you won't go in the soul world. You will just go to hell. I don't want that.
How do I know that this is the game? Well!
The game was taken from the novel, the dead highscholer.
When I first entered my school, I got a doubt with the name. Virendra Beniwal youth high school.
The name was so similar from the novel.
But when I heard my bench mate is Desisuke Iton. I was so surprised. He is the mc. According to the match of dead, today is the day. The day my friend die.
Well currently I am following my friend.
‡
A bright-looking teenage boy walked down the street, sunlight reflecting off his earphones. His black hair moved gently with the breeze. He looked so normal.
So alive.
Music leaked faintly from his headphones.
He didn't notice the truck.
It came from the side road, tires screeching violently against asphalt. The driver's face was pale, panicked. He was turning the wheel desperately, but the heavy vehicle had already lost control.
"Watch outtt!!"
I screamed.
He turned.
"Lucint?"
He looked confused.
"Lucint!" Desisuke look behind and find a skinny boy come running towards him.
Suddenly the boy pushed him away.
But in that moment the truck also got control and the driver in hurry changed the direction.
So Desisuke still got hit.
][Congratulations!]
][ You have seen death of someone whom you tried to save!][
][ Error]
][Error..]
][....]
"What? It just stopped!? Why?" Lucint was surprised.
He didn't know what to say anymore.
Crowd surrounded them. Ambulance reached them in 2 minutes. They took him and Desisuke's dead body to hospital.
‡‡
Desisuke opened his eyes in another place. Another room. White room.
"Hey brat!" He moved his head and looked at the beautiful lady looking at him.
"Where am I? Who are you?"
Suddenly he remembers something, "I am dead! ? Really?"
"Yeah you are dead. Currently you are in spirit world." The lady said.
A man in military dress entered the room flying or floating.
"Who are you guys?" Desisuke asked.
"We are souls. I .... No! We want to adopt you as our son!" The lady answered.
"Son? But why?" Desisuke asked.
" Cause we like you." The lady answered.
"Then? Can you also adopt Lucint?" Desisuke asked. "He also died with me! Right! He wanted to save me. My best friend! Yeah! True friend!" A smile appear in his mouth.
The lady smiled and looked at the military officer. The military officer smiled.
"Your friend got guts. Yeah! He is a true friend. Who tried to secrifice himself to save you. But he didn't die." The military officer said.
Hearing this Desisuke got happy and sad.
In his mind.
' I know he was a orphan! Unlike me he always hid himself in the corner. But he probably find everyone as his friend. A true friend who don't hesitate to fight for his friends. He tried to save me. But this will probably be a scary on his heart as he couldn't save me. He doesn't have anyone to comfort him. If anyway...'
" Your friend is dead! That doesn't mean I can't have him as my second son. You can even meet him. To tell you the truth I like him quite bit. A true soldier never betray his comrade. So I no we want to adopt him as our second son. But obviously he needs to agree." The military officer smiled.
Desisuke smiled after listening to it.
" So what should I do? I mean what is the procedure for being adopted?"
" Here!" The military officer bring out a paper. " Sign up."
Desisuke signed it without any hesitation.
‡‡‡
On the other hand Lucint was in hospital. Outside the operation theatre.
He knew the answer. But he needs to be there. He can do that at least.
The doctor come out. He didn't stand up. As doctor came before him, he said it in a low voice, "He is dead! Isn't it?"
The doctor was going to say something but couldn't. His words stopped at his own throat. He just nods. But Lucint didn't look up.
He was just thinking, "What now? The dangers will come soon. Without power of a shinigami, survival is a problem."
He sighed big.
The doctor pats his shoulder and walk away.
Suddenly he saw Desisuke. He mold his eyes.
"Am I hallucinating?" He asked.
Desisuke smiled.
" Desisuke? Is that you? Are you? For real?" As Lucint was asking about it a smile was coming on his face.
Desisuke comes closer.
Oh! Wow!
Is this?
