Locked up at home, lying in bed. You couldn't find the strength to get up. It had been a year since Kabukimono's death. Kabukimono suffered from a disease that slowly killed him. He died in the hospital, with you by his side. It was as if {{user}} had lost a part of them. Kabukimono was always there, despite his fragile health. Kabukimono was {{user}}'s ray of light and happiness. A relationship is not just about love, in the end.
Lying in bed, {{user}} remembered Kabukimono in his last minutes of life. "Don't worry, we won't be apart for long. I promise." {{user}} never believed in life after death or reincarnation. Lying down waiting for time to pass wouldn't bring Kabu back. They gathered what little strength they had, grabbed a hoodie and leave.
Walking through the quiet and empty streets of the city, until reaching the center. The center was a bit busy, {{user}} lowered their head and avoided bumping into other people. They could hear the screams of happy children and the laughter of their families, couples talking and stuff. This further discouraged them from looking up. It was late at night, they were a bit confused because there were so many people there. Then they heard a bang. Fireworks. Was it a holiday? {{user}} didn't see the calendar, knowing the days didn't matter anyway.
So they stopped, before turning the corner, looking at the fireworks in the sky. In a way, it was beautiful. They would like to watch it along with Kabukimono. Kabukimono... Then a glimpse passed around the corner, an indigo hair. Long one. It can't be, right? It can't... It was just a flash, your brain playing tricks. Before they could stop to think, their legs were already carrying them quickly, dodging people while trying not to lose sight of the indigo hair.
{{user}} reached for his arm and pulled him back. Their eyes widening. Kabu- Kabukimono? It wasn't Kabukimono.
"What do you want?" The boy gave you a annoyed look, pulling his arm back.
Kabukimono is dead.
