Loner’s past dream 2

I saw a considerably nostalgic dream, huh? It’s been 5 years … But it feels like it all passed in a blink of an eye .

“It must be because of the cold why I had that dream as I haven’t been seeing it recently……”

“Hmm… It seems like you had quite the nightmare . Are you okay?”

I turned to where the voice sounded from to see Hinata staring at me . Why is she holding my hand?

“Err… . . why is my hand… . ?”

“Feels nice, doesn’t it?”

Eehh… It is very nice . To clasp such erotic school nurse’s hand, of course it is . But what’s going on?

“Ah, sure… But, why are you . . ?” I asked instead .

“It was actually you who held my hand first . I was a bit surprised too, but … ”

… . . Seriously? This is like a stain on my reputation . It’s a good thing that it was Hinata . Especially since Hinata’s impression of me is of someone who wouldn’t be this kind of person .

“I wouldn’t be able to refuse, if I was asked with such passion, right? Well, if it’s for good . . ”

Can you not say it in a way that would give misunderstanding? This nurse . …ah, I just now realized it, but, how did she get in my house? This is like the second intruder .

“No, I won’t ask that of you, Hinata-san . Rather than that, how did were you able to enter my house?”

“It’s a walk in the park to get in using a wire, y’know?”

Are you trying to break the keyhole to my house?!?  It seemed like the one who told Yuki-san how to lockpick was you, right? Hinata? There’s no evidence for it though…

“That was a lie, by the way . Actually, the door was left unlocked so I just entered in . Though, I can say that I am able to lockpick . ”

“A lie… . ”

I seriously believed it though!! I wish the lockpicking was also a lie!!

“It’s fine, isn’t it? Rather that that, how’s your condition?”

“It’s Hinata-san’s fault that I’m seriously tired . ”

“So slovenly even though you’re young?”

Don’t continuously ramble on to a sick person like that . It was even more tiring than usual .

“Yeah yeah . My condition isn’t that good . My body also feels sluggish . My temperature doesn’t seem going down too . ”

“Hmm … I’ll examine you for a bit then . ”

Hinata placed her hand on my forehead, and looked at the back of my throat . Seeing it now, ‘she really does have medical practice, doesn’t she’ or so i thought . I still couldn’t help but seeing her as an erotic nurse though .

“It’s perfectly a cold . It should go away soon with some rest; do you some good if you sleep properly . After I make you some porridge, I will talk to Yuki in the meanwhile, so don’t do something unreasonable okay?”

“Okay,”

“Well, I’ve made the porridge, I’ll go out a little . When I’m done talking to Yuki, I’ll check on your condition once more . I plan to go back home, so I trust you’ll eat up and rest,” And as she said that, Hinata left .

Hinata was gentle . Perhaps because she knew of my past, after she made the porridge, she left as to not bother me .

“Well then, I guess I’ll do the laundry in the meanwhile and then eat . I feel less sluggish, so much so that I could do something now . ”

I washed my clothes and then ate the porridge that she made me .

“It’s delicious… . Taste different from the porridge that my mother made . A bit more salty . ” But it has been a long time since someone has taken care of me like this . I need to thank her once I get better .

“Gochisousama”

After checking to see that the washing machine was done, I put the clothes to dry and fell right asleep on the sofa again .

*

I heard a voice from far away . Is this another dream?

“Why did you kill him?” The police officer asked in an accusatory tone . As I woke from my faint, I noticed that I was locked in some room, imprisoned .

I was alone, and every time the door had been opened, someone came and I was asked about the incident . Sometimes, they asked me the same question over and over .

“Because I would have been killed,” I responded .

“Not changing your story, I see . Then did you know the perpetrator?”

“I didn’t know him . He was just some stranger . ”

The questions continued . It was mostly the same line of questioning . Honestly, I didn’t understand it myself . A room without a TV or anything else to watch; white walls surrounding me, and the same questions being asked . At the time, I really wanted to die .

“………why? What’s wrong with me? Somebody answer me!!”

Nobody came even as I shouted . I thought the days would continue as such, but then, in the middle of my torment a woman appeared in front of me .

“…Kiriyama Yuuki?”

“Who is it…?” I asked .

The woman didn’t appear talkative, and even exuded a lack of emotion . She had black hair, pulled together in a ponytail; and her eyes were slightly slanted, a dignified look in them .

“… My name is Takigawa Shino . I became your representative . Best regards for now . ”

“Best regards…” I said in a daze . At the time I didn’t care about much for anything . Even so, Shino-san came to my place everyday for a talk .

“I have plenty of time today . ”

Why was it when Shino-san came, she liked to hug me from behind? Liked to give me a lap pillow for me to sleep on, and do a lot more things for me? I didn’t know her reasons for it, but it was because of that that my heart slowly opened to her .

“Shino-san, thank you as always . ”

Even just telling her my thanks, I didn’t want to looked embarrassed . But, to me who lost my family, this was the only support for the my broken heart . But this time, when I spoke of my gratitude, Shino-san shed tears .

“… tell… … I’m… . Why … Even though Yuuki hasn’t done anything wrong…”

Although I didn’t understand what she meant at the time, I do now . This incident had become a huge story on the outside . There was a split in opinion on whether what I did could be categorized as legitimate defence or would it be deemed as excessive . It was also even mentioned that I may be psychotic . That was why Shino-san shed those tears .

“Shino-san, don’t cry . I’ll be alright . ”

I hugged Shino-san for the first time of my own accord .

“…Thank you . ”

But from that day forward, Shino-san never came to visit me again . And the judge made his decision . I was judged in favor of legitimate defense and was placed under police monitoring within a junior high school .

Later, I asked the police about Shino-san . She was said to have quit . I haven’t heard anything more since .

My dream ended there, and my eyes opened .

The past will always be there, but I must move forward for new opportunities .
