Lika Litu Life
Chapter 9 Chapter 2 - Part 1

It was 03:00 in the morning.

I am currently asleep in my room.

A light... No, this is a dream.....

"Hey, Kazu-kun, do you want to play with me?"

I heard a voice. From that voice.... A girl, who's the girl who just mentioned my name?.

Opening my eyes, my current scene had changed. As you can see, the alien atmosphere I am in right now.

"Yes..."

looking to my left and right, the room I was in right now seemed to be a room to study in.

Wait...! Wait....!

is this a classroom....?

what exactly is this place? And why am I here? Wasn't I asleep in my room? Why did it turn out like this?

This is strange, for me as a Hikikomori who rarely goes out even though, this room is not a place that should be owned in my house. Am I currently exposed to illusions?

If that were true, right now I would just need to find a way out of this illusionary world or I would forcefully come out with my strength.

Looking towards my front, a group of children were playing with each other and I was currently looking at it from the corner of this class.

"Helloo's... Can you hear me?"

Uh, no response from them. Is the world really an illusion? I still doubt that the world is real.

Or maybe I'm still in my dream? Looking at those who dariitadi did not look at me, I still seemed to doubt that this was an illusion.

Obviously I've spoken to them a few times and still no answer.

Is this a dream? ...Yes, it may be true that this is a dream.

If this was a dream, wouldn't it be too realistic? This looks like reality compared to dreams.

That's right, dreams aren't something like this. Look, I'm holding my right arm and it's like reality. Touching and I can feel it, it's definitely not a dream. And also, I feel familiar with this place.

Hm....

Is this some sort of vivid dream? It's so real, that's what I'm thinking right now.

I tried to move my legs towards the front and accidentally hit my feet by a hard object.

looking at that thing, a bench just hit me. But even so I did not feel the slightest pain from the impact.

My current state is a phenomenon that is beyond common sense, you could say this is a dream or illusion and also reality, the three of which I can not distinguish.

Someone had just passed me, the gust of wind felt from here, but he could not see me.

Looking at his face, it seemed like the person who had just passed me was a child who was about 7 years old. Look at her face so young, she looks like me when I was a kid.

"Eh, wait a minute...."

"Like me?"

"Who is he...?"

It's weird, who's that boy? why does his face look like me? Who her? My cousin? No, I don't at all remember having a cousin similar to me.

Is he my twin whom I have not known? I don't think it's possible, if he's my twin, my father should have talked to me about this, and it's certainly impossible that he's my brother. You could say I don't remember if I had a biological sister or someone who related blood to me, because my sister was just one Kirino.

Or don't let him be a doppelganger? If that's true, that kid is a fake being trying to be me. Right now I cannot accept it and must eliminate anyone who wants to try to disturb my calm.

"I'll try to see it up close"

Out of curiosity, I tried to walk towards the boy while looking at him, but my eyes were turned towards the girl next to the boy.

I stopped moving my legs and focused on looking at the girl.

"That face, I think I've seen it somewhere...."

"Hmmm..... But where is yah...?"

I tried to think hard through my brain, and kept thinking about who the two children were and what their relationship was with me.

"Ahhh, Shit! I can't remember at all, who are the two children and what does this have to do with me? It makes me more curious and thinking harder makes my head hurt."

I looked back at the girl, as if she was gathering with other friends. Hm... Looks like they're playing hide-and-seek.

This time it was the girl's turn to stand guard.

"Hurry, I count to ten and then I'll find you"

"...Two...."

"...three..."

"Let's hide quickly." Say the boy.

My eyes were now turned towards the boy. Right now he was in a daze looking for a hiding place, and right now he had just passed me.

From then on he seemed confused and looked in all directions of this classroom until he finally knew the time was going on.

"....Six...."

Ah, it seems like he kept staring at the locker that was not far from where I was at the moment, then ran towards the locker.

"Is it empty here?"

"Find somewhere else, here's mine!"

It seemed like there was someone who had preceded him inside the locker and at this time the boy was confused looking for another hiding place.

"....Seven...."

"Ah, fuck!"

"....Where do I find a hiding place?"

"....Eight on...."

Until finally he glanced at the teacher's desk in front of him which was exactly not far from the girl who was watching.

"It looks like it's empty there."

"...Nine...."

Run towards him and curse under the teacher's desk. Although it looks closed, but underneath there is an empty space that is not closed, although a little but his feet are clearly visible from where I am at this time.

".... Ten, all right, everyone, I'll be here soon...."

I had expected it, her moving legs from earlier were now visible to the girl, and now the girl was walking towards the teacher's desk.

Curious about the person cursing at the teacher's desk, the girl walked slowly and carefully.

Judging by the green line in the shoe, it seemed that the girl already knew who the person who cursed behind the teacher's desk was.

And....

"Ahh, Kazu-kun, you've been caught!"

As expected, there could be no hiding place that still had room that could air in making it a safe place to hide.

"No, still not... I'll get there first" said the boy.

It seemed like he had still not given up and now he started running towards the empty fortress.

And suddenly....

"Ah, wait!"

And then the boy accidentally pushed the girl down.

The girl fell down and her knee hit the table behind her. As a result, his knee suffered bruises on his upper part.

The girl cried with all her might, while the boy apologized to the girl repeatedly.

"I'm sorry, I didn't push you at all" "Please forgive me!" Agitatedly.

The other children who heard the loud cry came out of their hiding places and focused on looking at the crying girl.

"He just pushed Reika-Chan to a fall!"

"I know for a fact that he did it on purpose!"

Ehhh... The girl's name is Reika-Chan. I think I heard his name somewhere.

"No, i... I didn't do it on purpose..."

Now the boy was cornered from the anger of another friend who continued to defend the girl. Eventually he left the classroom.

"Hey, where are you going? Don't run!"

"... Take responsibility!"

"Bas on you coward!"

As a result of one of those events, it made my head feel a flux of shock flow like an electric shock that had just been felt inside my head. As a result, memories that I had not wanted to recall back into my head.
