【Episode 19】 I'm going……


Then I entered my room, laying in bed and staring at the ceiling.

Suddenly the laptop computer on the desk sounds a sound.

It was a message that mail arrived.

I woke up quietly from the bed and walked to the desk.

Operate the PC and open the mail.

It was a reply mail from “J”.


【“Two hours late? Why? What happened?”】


“……”


I sit in a chair and I type in letters in the email text.

And, I clicked the send mail button.


“……”


Confirmed the transmission was completed and I sighed.

After a while, the sound told that one mail has arrived rang.

I returned to my former position, and when I looked at a personal computer I operated a personal computer and opened a mail.


【“I am very worried about you.What happened? Tell me the truth.”】


“……”


I type a letter in the mail text.

And I clicked the send button.


After a while.


I got an email from "J".

I opened the mail.


【“Why were your parents angry?

Didn't you do your homework?”】


“……”


Stop hands, I think for a while.


(“homework…….

If homework is reason, I did not suffer……”)


I grieved.

I typed the mail.

And I sent a mail to J.


“……”


Take your eyes off the computer,I stared at the ceiling for a while.


After a while.


The sound of the mail rang.

That was from J.

I turned my eyes to the computer and opened the mail.


【“I am the same as your parent's opinion.

Let's do your homework neatly.

Otherwise you will regret in the future.

I will wait until I have done my homework, so please mail me when I have done my homework.”】


“……”


Without replying.

I moved to bed.


“……”


I lay down on the bed and thought quiet for a while.

After sighing out, I asked “Ottchan" in my mind.


『What happened?』


 ……。


『Do you know? It is only human beings to think of "after death". Wild animals seem to think only about the way to live now.』


“Ottchan was listening to all the conversations with me and my mother.”


『To be accurate, "a voice has arrived". Eavesdropping is not a hobby.』


“What you are doing is a crime.I'll call the police.”


『By the way, were you ready?

 I am ready to take you to "another world".』


“……”


I turned over for turning.

Question back to you.


“Ottchan.If I did not return for the rest of my life while I went to "another world"…… What will happen to me in this world?”


 Ottchan laughed with his nose and said it.


『Do you want to keep living forever in “another world”?』


 I refuse.


“No, that's not it.”


『Then the answer is easy.

"You can go back if you want to return."

That's it.』


“But, if I can not go back from that world, what should I do?”


After silence for a while.

Ottchan said in a serious voice.


『Let's go buy new milk rather than sorrow the milk that has flowed out.

There might be a wonderful encounter.』

And then.

I changed clothes, left the room and headed to the kitchen where my mother was.

After listening to my footsteps, my mother, who was sleeping at the table, raised her head.

I meet eyes with my mother.

And,I looked at the table.

What I saw was my childhood mypicture.

My mother was worried about me and quickly wiped my tears with fingers.

Laugh as usual, my mother tells me.


“Are you going out?”


“Oh…, yeah. I am going out to my friend 's house for a while.”


“You must come home before your father comes home.”


“all right. The curfew is 18 o'clock?”


“No, it's 17 o'clock.”


“17 o'clock!?”


“Yes. Please come back by that time.”


“Well…. all right.”


“Be careful as the car is dangerous.”


“Yeah, I know.”


“Do you have medicine?”


“Yeah.”


“All right. Please play with your friends. But The curfew is 17 o'clock.OK?


“Yeah,Yeah.It is OK.Um…….and……”


I hesitated to say.

I was silent for a while.

My mother asked me.


“What's wrong? You can not go out yet? "


“No, that……”


I wanted to say something.

But I could not make it to words.


"What happened?"


“No, that's not the case……”


After hesitating for a while.

I took courage and told my mother.


“I'm sorry.

I will not ask words that will make you sorrowful.”


I did not wait for the opponent 's reply, I jumped out of the house.
