Bab 14: Story Telling
Sap- Well... Now we're stuck in the most important place...
Ken- The love part of the love story...
Sap- Which I'm awful at... I've never had such an experience...
Ken- You need to experience stuff to write stuff?
Sap- No... But... It looks and feels unprofessional... So... How about you write the love part?
Ken- Who? Me? Why?
Sap- Because you're the only one here who has a gf...
Ken- But----
Sap- Oh well... I guess you're not that romantic... So... Maybe it'll be hard for you to write...
Kaori- Well... You might think that... But... Kazuto has his moments...
Ken- Umm... That's Ken now...
Kaori- Oh... Wait... Sorry... So... As I was saying... KEN HAS HIS MOMENTS!!
Sap- Really?
Kaori- Yeah!! I'll let him tell the story as he is a better storyteller than I am...
Ken- Are you sure?
Kaori- Yup...
Ken- Oh well... So... This story dates back to 2 years ago...
Kaori- Yup!!
Ken- I had left the Yamada Clan, and was doing some shady stuff with Kazuto Narukami, the leader of Abyss... We were actually creating a game... Nothing much... There was another person with us... He had a creation ability... And... We were using that... Anyways... Back to the point... That guy helped me in creating a cottage out in the woods... I used to live there... And... One day I heard someone screaming...
**********************************************
Ken was inside a wooden cottage out in the middle of the woods. He was drinking coffee while looking at the sunset from the second floor of his cottage... He suddenly heard a girl screaming loudly... He went to the site to check it out... He saw Kaori screaming into a well...
Kaori- I'M NOT A DAMN PROSTITUTE YOU PIECE OF SHITS!! WHY DO YOU PARENTS FORCE YOUR EXPECTATIONS ON US CHILDREN?! AND WHO THE FUCK WANTS THEIR CHILD TO BECOME SOMETHING LIKE THAT?! I'M GONNA LEAVE THE CLAN ONE DAY!!
Kaori breaks down in tears and sits down holding the walls of the well.
Kaori- I want to leave... I want to leave it... I heard someone from the Yamada Clan did it... Why can't I do it too? Why am I chickening out?! I can live by myself... I can live by myself...
Kaori gets up and starts screaming into the well again.
Kaori- YOU HEAR ME?! I'M GOING TO LEAVE YOU GUYS AND LIVE ALL BY MYSELF!! I WILL LIVE OUT IN THESE WOODS IF I CAN!!
Kaori sits down again on the verge of tears.
Kaori- I can't do it... I've lived on the expenses of the family for too long... I don't even know how to do any job...
Kaori stands up again.
Kaori- WAIT!! I CAN USE MY BODY FOR MONEY!!
Kaori sits down again.
Kaori- That's what I've been running from... Why the heck did I think of that?!
Kaori stands up again.
Kaori- I KNOW IT!! I'LL BECOME A HERO AND SAVE THE WORLD!!
Kaori sits down again.
Kaori- Ah... I'm a worthless piece of shit... I can't do anything... I don't have any talents... I don't have any use... My family is letting me have a place in the world and I'm going against them as I don't like those guys touching my body?! What am I? A narcissist?! I shouldn't think of myself... I can't even survive a night outside my family... That's what mother always told me... I'm not coming to terms with it...
Kaori stands up and screams into the well again.
Kaori- BUT I ABSOLUTELY HATE TRYING TO GATHER INFORMATION BY GIVING UP MY BODY!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
**********************************************
Back to the present
Kaori- Hey!! Don't go into that much detail!!
Ken- That's what makes the storytelling experience better...
Kaori- JUST GET TO THE OTHER PARTS ALREADY!!
Ken- The other parts... Like?
Kaori- The song...
Ken- Oh well... I used to like singing back then... And... Let's just say Kaori took her time deciding on what to do... And... I wrote a full song while she did that...
**********************************************
Ken puts aside a pen and paper and takes out a guitar from his shadow portal. He lets out a breath.
Ken- Ah shit... It's too cold outside for me to sing comfortably... I hope I don't catch a cold after this...
Ken starts playing the guitar and starts singing. Kaori notices the song and tries to find Ken.
Ken- You don't have to be a hero to save the world...
It doesn't make you a narcissist to love yourself
It feels like nothing is easy, it will never be...
That's all right, let it out, talk to me...
You don't have to be a prodigy to be unique...
You don't have to know what to say or what to think...
You don't have to be anybody you can never be...
That's alright, let it out, talk to me...
Anxiety, tossing turning in your sleep
Even if you run away, you'll still see them in your dream
It's so dark tonight, but you'll survive, certainly...
Kaori finds Ken in front of his cottage.
Ken- It's all right... Come inside... And talk to me...
Kaori goes inside Ken's cottage.
Ken- We can talk here on the floor, on the phone if you prefer *throws a phone towards Kaori*
I'll be hearing till you're okay...
Let your words release your pain,
You and I will share the weight...
Growing stronger day by day...
It's so dark outside tonight...
Build a fire warm and bright... *Throws a matchstick at the already set up fireplace*
And the wind it howls and bites
Bite it back with all your might...
Anxiety tossing turning in your sleep...
Even if you run away, you'll still see them in your dreams...
It's so dark tonight...
It looks nice...
Fall asleep... *Shows her to a spare bedroom*
**********************************************
Sap- And then.... They fucked...
Kaori- NO!! THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN!! And... Honestly... I was surprised at it too... All I've thought was that men were monsters... But... He was the first person to have never laid a hand on me… He hasn't even tried it even now… Can you believe this?!
Sap- Oh well... What happened after that?
Ken- Umm... The curry... It's... A bit too sweet...
Kaori- WHAT?!
Ken- I didn't measure it well... I was too busy remembering the lyrics of the song and singing it...
Sap- You were even air-guitaring...
Ken- Oh well... I have to focus on doing it...
Sap- But what about the story??
Ken- Let's do that next time...
Sap- Oh well... What about tomorrow? During club hours??
Ken- Why not?
Haisha- Umm... Can I have that sweet curry? Before you add something to get rid of the sweetness?
Ken- Yeah... Obviously...
Haisha- Yay!!!
Sap- You're really childish...
Haisha- Everyone says that...
