Bab 18: In Which, Suiting Up For My Next Chapter Of Life.

<Goofy>

I'm... dead. I'm... soooooo dead.

Not only did I upset my dear friend, I accidentally exposed Kenma's secret to the whole world!

I'm doomed.

I'll probably be exiled from the Mind Conduit again for punishment.

AAAAAA!

But I don't wanna!

It's not even my fault that I didn't remember!

It's just how this thing works!

URGHHHH!!

What to do... What to do...

Crap Crap Crap!

"I- I'm sorry, Kota. I don't know. Really..." He just stared at me with lifeless eyes in response. "Crap. Ah... Umm..."

I tore a piece of paper from the memo and clicked my pen.

Within 15 seconds, I made a funny caricature art of Kota.

"Look!" I startled Kota.

He looked at me and smiled while erasing his incoming tears.

"You don't have to try to, you know, light up my mood. Thank you, Kenma."

YOSH! It works.

*phew*

Thank god!

"Of course!"

"You're such a wuss oni-chan." Inu startled me from behind.

EH?!

"Mom's not dead. She abandoned us."

What the hell?!
