/Few Years later after Karamatsu's death/
How long has it been? Two years, three? I am not sure anymore...The more I think about it, the more I long for you. I miss you, Karamatsu..I miss the time we spend together...I miss your smile, your voice, your music and even your painful pick up lines...
I miss everything about you...
I tried my best to move on but..it's useless. Everything around me just reminds me of you. I didn't thought that you would come to see me that day, that you were planning a surprise for me, that's why you ignored me so much so I won't be suspicious of what you're doing. How selfish of me...I should have understand you and the fight would not have happen. I should have charged my phone and waited for your call, forgiving you. And then after that I could have gone down and watch your concert instead of waiting back at my office for you to come over and propose to me. That way at least if the explosion did happen, I would still be with you now...
"What am I thinking..." smiles slightly as tears stream down my face. If you were here right now, you would probably give me a knock on my head, telling me death is not the way to solve things...
I decided to take some time off today or more like, my colleague told me that I should take some time off. They know that I have yet to move on from your death and is always burying myself with work to keep myself occupied. "If you keep doing this, you will work yourself to death!" was what one of my colleague said to me, convincing me to take off from my work. But you know..
I am starting to think that death might be a way to solve things. I really miss you ..I want to see you so badly...
So...Please...Come back...
..I would do anything just to have you back...
I let out a loud cry and started breaking down again.
"You plead as if someone may hear you."
"Who's there?" I turn and look towards the direction where the voice come from. However there is no one in the room but me. It's been so long, I'm in so much self pain and loathing that I'm hearing things now. I must be going crazy..
"Oh no,my child, you are not going crazy. There is definitely someone here"
The voice replied me and I was shocked. That is impossible. I don't see anyone in this room and yet I hear voices.
"(snickering) You can't see me but I am here. And I see you are in need of saving"
I felt someone holding me close, like a comforting hug. Why would anyone want to comfort someone like me? I mean my colleague did try to comfort me but all I did was push them away. And soon they gave up on comforting me. Nothing can comfort me anymore unless Karamatsu comes back..There's nothing in this world for me without him..
"Nothing? Are you not determined to see your love smiles once more? To walk on earth again?"
More than anything. I would do anything for him..Anything that can allow him to walk on earth again. He deserve a better life than me.
"That's a very Devil-may-care attitude, Osomatsu Matsuno."
Heh..Why would a devil care for me?
"He may just care. You never know what you may be able to do."
What can I do? I am just an ordinary human being..
"(Snickers) That's where I come in,my child. Tell me, how much would you give in for him?"
If it can allow Karamatsu to walk on earth again, I won't mind giving up my life and my entirety for him...
"Ah~ With such thoughts, I can ease your troubled heart"
My eyes widen in horror. Is someone really here? I was surprised myself that I was talking to this voice who I cannot see. The embrace was warm at first but everything suddenly became so cold.
There nothing you can do to bring him back. Not even all the money in the world could bring him back..I have already tried..And I couldn't save him..I failed
"My dear Osomatsu, it's not the money but something more precious."
Something presses at against the middle of my chest. Are you perhaps an Angel to hear my plead or maybe a devil from hell..?
The voice laughs." I prefer the term King, or even for you..father. Let me ease your pain and worries. All I need is your service. Get me what I crave and what you crave will walk on earth again. Isn't that what you wished for? For him to walk on earth again and live his life to the fullest, fulfilling his dream.
Yes..Yes..Just bring him back. I would give anything to you. For him to be alive and walk on earth again..
"Very well,I will bring your beloved back again but in return, you have to become one of my children and serve me in hell, doing my bid, and fetching me my desired nutrition- human souls. "
Karamatsu..yes please bring him back..
A dark figure appears in front of me. My eyes widen in horror to what I just saw. It's not just any ordinary human that I have been talking to. But it was a devil.I should have known..His cold eyes gaze upon me. I wanted to back away but my leg were too tired to move.
"Look at you- you're in a very horrible state" The devil smirks. "But you will soon be one of us"
One of them? Right..I remembered that I sort of agree to serving the king to allow Karamatsu to walk on earth again. Will Karamatsu be happy if he know that I got myself involved with the devils just to bring him back to life..Probably not...But it's too late to turn back now,isn't it?
A red magic circle appears beneath me and glows brightly as my body burns up. My whole body starts to hurt a lot as a pair of horn grew out on my head, followed by a pair of maroon long wings growing on my back and lastly a devil tail. My pupils change from brown to crimson red as I scream in pain and fell to the ground.
I looked up to the devil standing in front of me as my vision gets blurry due to the pain. Huh? Why is the devil smirking?Ah not like I care...
I am now a devil..who will be serving the one who calls himself 'king of hell'. As long as I serve him and brings him what 'he' wants, Karamatsu will walk on earth again. Please don't look for me Karamatsu...I am sure you will be angry at me for doing this but you deserve a better life than me. So live on...live for us.
My conscious slowly drift off due to the pain in my body. I felt someone carrying me. Probably the devil. Taking me to hell.
Karamatsu, I love you..And I am sorry...
