Hypnotized: My Second Life Mission
A Storytime
Nazeem opened his eyes slowly looking at the clock showing at 04:10 it was a sign that soon morning prayer time would arrive. He got up to see Ayato and Irvin who were still sleeping on his right and left side.
“Do I have to stay away from here?” He thought because he didn't want to disturb his sisters' sleep.
Suddenly Ayato woke up from her sleep. “Oh Nazeem, what's up so early?” Ask while rubbing eyes.
“I... Must do something,” In short.
Ayato just nodded along rising from her sleep.
“What do you want yourself?” Nazeem asked in a loud voice because he thought Ayato was intending to come with him.
Ayato slightly gasped at Nazeem's loud-sounding question. “Of course I want to go to the toilet.”
Nazeem simply nodded in understanding and cursed himself inwardly because of his foolish thoughts earlier.
After Ayato was done, and Nazeem was done with his duty, they now just sat together looking at the sea while waiting for the sunrise with a little story.
“Sister Ayato, I miss my family out there.” Nazeem started the conversation.
Ayato stroked Nazeem's shoulder to calm her very innocent feelings while saying. “Patience, we'll take you home. And after this you will soon meet them back.”
“Thank God you still have a family, while I, I killed my own family and ran away alone. Doesn't that sound evil?” he smiled with a face without regret.
“Ah is right too, I am a new kid here, I have always wanted to ask about this.”
Ayato looked at him curiously.
“Why do you prefer Miss Harina over Ayato's own family even all the people who have been close to you must have strong feelings of friendship. But you chose instead to jointly destroy them with Miss Harina”.
Ayato stared at the ceiling which was starting to brighten up. His face became serious and his hands were now crossed in front of his chest.
“I was born on the island, my mother and father met and married there. Even so, they were busy at their respective jobs and I ended up wandering around indistinctly and I ended up meeting Harina who had just been taken out of Mr. Hiro's test tube. And I've known him since he became a guinea pig.
I started to get close to him until one day I got caught by my mother and I ended up being dumped in sword class and that's where I met Irvin. There I thought to myself, I had no intention of learning to fight. I hate my mother, my father and everyone in D'Devils. I never knew their purpose was good or bad but when I saw the day, I seemed to find the answer that the company was moving to destabilize the world.
I started to seriously learn to fight everything to get close to Harina, I offered to become Harina's personal guard and it finally materialized. And I'm getting away from my family and getting to know Harina. He was always warm, cool, and authoritative in front of others, and it made me even more curious about him.”
He suddenly fell silent when Nazeem cut the story.
“Kurasa kak Ayato intends to tell Miss Harina who has changed the viewpoint of sister, whereas my question is only the reason why Ayato sister is more supportive of Miss Harina than her own family,” Selanya with a ignorant look.
Ayato cleared her throat for a while then tried to straighten out her intentions. “I think you are too close to Irvin, ignorant to the point of contagion. Well, anyway I can't give you a reason if you don't know my short story.”
Nazeem laughs. “Alright, alright continue.”
“So the point is I trust Harina because I have been nearby, I know her purpose and I know the reason. He never lied to me and I tried to find out the truth about the company and the origin of the island of D'Devils and I finally made my decision that I would cooperate with Harina.
Just like me, Annie, Aira, and Irvin also felt an awkwardness within our island and we didn't want that to happen. Although some of these people just follow for their survival because of fear but if those people continue to live, it is possible that generations to generations we will never win.
That is why, I really appreciate Harina's intentions despite using this way. Because we do not have any other options.”
The long story Ayato had finished, Nazeem nodded in understanding and said “It is difficult well, not the same as me who just wants to return to my village because of my own carelessness, but I have to, accidentally entered their vehicle and I ended up coming with them without their knowledge. Oh well, I remember when they attacked my village with the crazy monsters they were throwing out. That's why I escaped hiding in their vehicle.”
Then Irvin's head suddenly appeared in their midst and made them flinch in shock.
“Is our island that bad?” Ask Irvin.
“I don't think so, I joined Miss Harina because all this time I never left the island even though I was placed in front of the fighters. Well quotes – backup well haha” joked Irvin made Ayato roll her eyeballs bored.
“Truly just that?” Nazeem asked who took it seriously.
Irvin did not expect that the little boy took this joke seriously. He flirted with Ayato hoping Ayato would help him. Finally Ayato shook her head as a sign of refusal not to tell Nazeem the truth.
Irvin forced smile “Haha well... They are not so bad really, just their goal is a bit barbaric hahah”
“Indeed what is their real purpose? Why did they make monsters and attack us?” Nazeem's question again makes them breathe between wanting to be honest but considering his age is still small, they are not sure they have to say the original purpose of the islanders.
“Yeah, like the problem in general... They want to capture territory outside the island. You realize that our island is remote and not as vast as they are so with their greed and ego that is not familiar to share, they finally decided to attack many cities.” Lying Irvin.
After hearing a clear answer from Irvin and Ayato, Nazeem clapped his hands to re-energize his two older brothers. “Alright, since you are willing to tell me this, I will make you fresh juice. Wait well, all breakfast later with the mothers and fathers haha”
Nazeem finally left the two of them there. The clock has shown at 07:00 and the others have also woken up and done their morning activities.
“Luck well, Nazeem believes in us” said Irvin relieved.
“Let him think like that, because we can't keep avoiding his questions all this time. At least he is not curious anymore even though it is a lie-MU”
Instantly a screaming voice from Nazeem called out to them from a distance and interrupted their conversation. “Sister Ayato, brother Irvin, miss Harina calls you”
Ayato smiled faintly then stood up from her seat at the follow Irvin who with her grumpy face narrowed her eyes after hearing the word ‘lie’ with the affirmation 'MU' at the end. “You told me to lie, you also cornered me.Let's not like Ayato's usual attitude of blaming her for her own mistakes.
“I'll throw you at Miss Harina.” He then ran towards Harina's room.
Ayato could only laugh in the back because of the stupid behavior of her comrade-in-arms. While continuing to walk casually after Irvin, Ayato whistled a little to see the beauty of walking outside the island that had always imprisoned them. Still continuing to whistle with a calm heart, he finally arrived. However, before he opened the door in front of him, he heard an unexpected word from Irvin.
“Nona Harina, accept Ayato's love, she won't come here if you haven't received it”
Ayato's reflexes opened the door hard and Ayato's appearance was now the concern of everyone.
“BASIC KAU IRVIIIIN” Shouts of anger and shame. He would not have guessed that the complaint Irvin said was not about their conversation this morning, but only Irvin's continued fad. With his emotions evaporating, a fist drifted into Irvin's cheek.
Buaagh...
