No. No, she had to think about this logically. There... there had to be a reason for all of this. Maybe it was an elaborate prank. Yeah... it had to be.
But wait a minute... who would pull a prank like this? How could they get all of this stuff set up without prior notice? How did they get everyone to pass out? And... why? What would be gained from this? This was going too far for just a simple scare setup.
Haruka looked to the others for answers.
She saw Suzume and Sho, and how Suzume was acting in front of Sho.
Really, she'd figured it out at the same time Sho had. And of course Sho had to put his arm around Suzume's shoulder, just to confirm it.
"Th-that's it, huh? Ah... ahaha... yeah. Of course. Y-you two..."
She wiped something from her eye. Huh? When... when did she start crying? Why?
"You... guys... to-together..."
What was going on? Why was she crying? Why was she mumbling?
This made no sense...
Why was she acting like... like...
Haruka dropped her phone. She took a step backwards, before turning and doing a full sprint down the corridor. She didn't care where she was going. She didn't even know why.
Saturday, April 11th, 12:08AM - Old Classroom 1-6Haruka sat on the floor of the classroom, staring at the message painted onto the opposite wall.
Flesh is a vessel for the soul...
What soul is this that requires such a large vessel?She was very much beginning to doubt that this was just a prank.
Now that she'd calmed down, she realized what she had just done. She'd run away from the others, all because of... seeing Sho and Suzume making contact? That...
No... she was being the stupid one. She should go back.
Haruka stood, making her way to the door of the classroom. But through a small habit that Haruka had picked up, it wasn't the same door she entered from. It's not like it mattered, right? After all, it really didn't, for most of her life. Both of the classroom doors should lead out to the same hallway, right? Even if she was really in some weird dimension, that's just how schools worked right? That's what made sense, so that's how it was, right?
Of course it wasn't.
Of course it wasn't.
