1 Prologue (2/2)

”Hehe~ come on don't be mad, are you still not used to being called twinkle star?” (Akira)

”If you keep calling me like that, I'll ignore you for the rest of the days from the upcoming week.” (Kiro)

The reason why that horrible, horrible pet name is born, It was because of her. If It wasn't for the fact she misheard my name before, I wouldn't have this lame nickname.

”So what?” (Kiro) asked In annoyance.

”I was wondering If you have any plans this evening, you know, It's been a while since we had fun, I was going to invite you for a karaoke.” (Akira)

If It was before, Kiro will probably agree without a second thought.

But right now, he knows his sense of priority.

”Nah, I'll pass this time, you guys should stop playing around you know? We are already at the stage of our life, where we should know our sense of priority.” (Kiro)

”Waaah~ how boring you've become Kiirooo!~ Did the textbook eat your brain or something?” (Akira)

”Well Nevermind, If you don't want to go just say it, you don't need to reprimand me like an old man.” (Akira) pouted.

***

On the way back home, It was already dark outside, the time of busiest hour at night.

Walking down to the street up until I reach my 1DK Apartment.

Looking at the building that barely stands, reminds me of the good times I have from this place. Even though this building was on the verge of collapsing, I still choose to live here. You could say it was because of the sentimental value? I guess so, probably It was because this is the place where I gain my Independence.

”Haah~” (Kiro) gives a reminisce sigh.

Going Inside my unit, I threw myself into the bed out of exhaustion.

Reaching out my Smartphone and I saw multiple spam messages from Akira.

`Idiot, Idiot Kiro, I hope you have fun with your book!'

That's what Inside of the message.

”Hehehe...” (Kiro) Gives a bitter laugh, then throws out his phone on the bed.

Even though he wanted to come and have fun, his mind is occupied for his studies and the pressure of the upcoming university examination. He would be likely lying to himself if he says that he didn't want to go and have fun with his friends and acquaintances.

He is a human too.

There was a time when he almost had a mental breakdown from the pressure and promised himself that he will go out to have a party for three days and two nights straight after passing the exam.

Suddenly a sound of notification could be heard.

`Ting~!`

”Huh? what Is it?” (Kiro) Reach out his smartphone on his bed and saw a doubtful notification that appears on his phone screen.

`Congratulation! You've won the prize of your life~!'

Looking at the silly pop-up notification, out of curiosity, Kiro clicked the notification ads.

`Ting~! You successfully passed the challenge~!'

”Huh? passed what?” (Kiro) looks confused at the message he saw from his smartphone.

Then a blinding ray of white light covers his entire room, as Kiro's consciousness escapes from his body.
