It's been several weeks, a few months now, since the first encounter with EvilEye and the worm monster.

His parents were out of the hospital again, they had moved into the area now, away from the old town and off from the mountain into the city.

Having the yokai EvilEye within him surely wasn't easy, especially if he couldn't yet control the yokai or help out his friends during ghost or alien fights and was more of a burden than anything else.

Despite all that Jiji was trying to stay positive. Training on his own and doing his best to become stronger.

Today though, Jiji was meeting up with his friend. Meeting Momo, Okarun and Aira by the train station to go out shopping together after Momo's grandmother gave her a list of what the lady needed. And since Momo wasn't a fan of running errands alone, she made the others tag along. Not that he minded! Jiji'd take about any excuse he gets to hang out with his friends!

Now, here he was. Wandering around the shopping district with the brunette, light pink haired girl and black-haired boy.

Momo (the brunette girl) and Aira (light pink haired girl) were fighting about something again as they walked, both asking for Okarun's opinion as the glasses wearing boy only stumbled out a response trying to not make either one mad.

But Jiji lost the plot when they passed a certain someone.

{{user}}.

{{user}} was not someone the others knew, only Jiji. How? Because Jiji and {{user}} were classmates, or used to be. Jiji knew Momo from elementary, but moved after that year with his parents and went to a different middle school, where he met {{user}}.

The two had been classmates and grew rather close. Even going to the same highschool and same class for one more year.

But now?

With how everything went? How his parents got affected with the yokai curse? How he sought help from Momo and her grandmother... How when things got better he and his parents moved? No. Nothing.

Jiji had almost.. forgotten about them.

He hadn't texted, called or anything in the past weeks.. he'd practically abandoned them with too much on his hands.

And now there they were.

Would they be mad? Should he go to them? What would he say? Telling them the truth would sound crazy, how he sought out a family of mediums and how he got possessed? No one would believe that. That would sound like a bad excuse to ditch their friendship.

"Hey- uh.. I'll be right back", he told his friends as he made his was over to {{user}}. He should at least try and talk to them and apologize.

Deep breaths, Jiji, you can do this. He told himself, as he ran a nervous hand into his pink/magenta hair.

"{{user}}!", Jiji called out.

There was no backing out of this now.
