"Yo, [N/N]-chan~"

Mitsuba called out, walking towards you. You took a glance over him, then back to your camera. "Hm."

Mitsuba sits next to you on the window, swinging his legs out while looking at your direction.

"Hey... what picture are you taking?"

There, still focusing on your camera, you answered. "Oh, just the gardening club."

Curious, Mitsuba looks at the scenery too. From a distance, the sun gracefully land it's ray onto the school yard, which has the gardening club planting some flowers and fresh looking plants (although there's one upperclassman who seem to be planting crops).

"Hm... I see why you take their pictures now."

Mitsuba said as he peeks over your shoulder. He's really impressed with how you do your work, your pictures are perfectly taken. You're only a few months younger than him yet you're techinically Mistuba's 'senpai'.

"[N/N]-chan, why do you spin the camera like that?"

"To get a different angle, idiot."

You slowly rotate your camera to the left and took a few pictures in a row.

"In this way, I might have an idea how to get a good angle! It gives a good effect as well."

Mitsuba hummed in awe, admiring how handle your pictures like a pro. "Pretty..."

"What? Did you just compliment me?"

Mitsuba sheepishly smiles. "Of course, they're not any prettier than I am~"

You grinned, put your camera down and looked at Mitsuba. "How are you so sure about that?"

"Ehh... I don't know. Take a picture of me, and compare it, I guess."

You did a thinking pose, and then actually lifted your camera up, aiming at Mitsuba.

Mitsuba flustered, not thinking you would actually take a picture of him. Embarassed and nervous, he looked away like a tomato.

You took a snap and quickly showed the result to him. You had arranged the angle so that Mitsuba is right between the classroom and the sky view outside.

Bordered by the wood-framed glass window, the evening sunset gave a pinkish-orange light to the view outside. Some of them went into classroom, creating a soft effect.

You then compared it to the ones you took before.

"Hm~ you're right. Your statement seem valid."

Mitsuba had no idea how to react at your comebacks, so he lightly shoved you while pouting.

It might hurt a little, but you took the pain too seriously. It is obvious, your face wouldn't hide it. You squealed, accidentally dropped your camera, held your arm tight and fell fowards.

"OH CRAP! [N/N]-CHAN!"

You fell with your face first, luckily you were only sitting on the first floor's window. Mitsuba took your camera, dropped down and fussed over you.

"[N/N]-chan [N/N]-chan [N/N]-chan [N/N]-chan I'm so so so so sorry! Please tell me you're alright!"

You answered you're fine, but you keep clutching on your shoved arm though...

Mitsuba then understood. He carefully picked you up, trying not to touch wherever it hurts or wherever else it potentially could be.

Soon as you're standing straight, Mitsuba scoffs at you. "[N/N], just so you know you're ugly with those bruises. Please, tell me who did this!"

You carefully covered the bruise back. No matter how pure Mitsuba's intention is, you could never tell him who gave you those bruises. You brushed those questions aside and gave a weak smile.

Mitsuba stares at you, then sighed. Ten minutes wasted, he still couldn't make you tell who's been beating you.

If he was stronger, he would protect you.

"It's okay, my dude," you put a hand on his shoulder. "You're my camera homie. I trust you. One day, I'll tell you everything about it."

Mitsuba sadly looks at you. He deep down regrets his selfishness and his weakness.

He pulled you into a hug, whispering 'idiot'.

~•~

"Isn't this bad?"

"Who'll be next?"

"May Mitsuba-san and [L/N]-chan find peace together..."

Lately, this winter sends the chills and cold news together

'Junior high boy died in a car crash' is painfully normal to be seen around the newspaper those days. Just after the fuss died down, another title 'Junior high girl jumped off her school window' came.

How and why did it happened?

Nobody knows.

After some researches, the girl is found to leave notes about experiencing beatings, even though it is never mentioned where she got them from. She always slip the notes between her camera rolls. Her last note was found in the same roll full of pictures of a girlish looking boy.

'He's gone. Can you bring him back? There's no point for living if I had nobody to live for. But I can't take it anymore, so I've decided to go with him.'

~•~

Not yet to perish from this world?

Anyone would be confused if they opened their eyes after they were sure they're dead. But instead of being in heaven or something like that, you reappeared where you died.

Checking yourself out, you see there's nothing changed with yourself except for your weird positioned legs.

Oh, right. You jumped off and landed on your feet.

Faint sounds are heard from the window.

"Hey... have you heard?"

"There's a spirit on the windows you're sitting next to!"

"Hey, you gotta be kidding me!"

"No jokes! If you were to see them, the window will start to rattle. Hints of blood will be seen around the bottom of the window." The voice spoke. "Then, a hand will grab yours, saying... 'can you bring him back...?'"

"Ahaha! Nice one, bro! There's another one similar though."

"It's the spirit in the junior high entrance! It is said, when you were changing your shoes, he would grab your hand and ask, 'do you remember me...?'"

Laughter filled the air, feeding you with curiousity. She still has no idea why she's back to Kamome, but she knows for sure there's something like her, lurking around the school entrance.

Positioning your skirt, you slowly floated and make your way.

"To the school entrance!"

~•~

"Okay... so first, I change my shoes."

You looked down on your broken legs.

Nah, I ain't got the leg to put my shoes on.

You still decided to try though (you can't help but be curious, if you can still walk on your now twisted legs and walk, wouldn't you be moonwalking foward?)

You peeked in your old shoe locker, now someone else's. You stared at it, reaching your transparent hand in the locker and pulling out the shoes.

"Huh..."

Suddenly, you felt a hand on your arm.

"Hey... do you remember me?"

You froze. Your head slowly turns to the dark hand.

"AAAAAAAAHHH!!"

You threw the shoes away, having the shoes landing on the dark figure's head.

"A GHOST!"

You ran away, screaming.

"Wait, I AM A GHOST TOO!"

You ran back.

"Omg I'm so sorry I'm new and I kinda forgot I'm a ghost-"

The figure dropped on their knees, holding their head. "H-hey, you idiot! You can't throw random shoes at people- I mean, ghosts. Whatever. Especially to cites tuff like me. A newbie, you said? No wonder, you noob!"

Insulted, you gasped. "I completed the Impossible Obby! I'M NO NOOB."

"That's LAME. The Ultimate Obby came out."

"Well, I ain't got time for that if I died, do I??"

"Ugh! If you hadn't look like someone I knew I wouldn't have to meet your stupid face!"

"Excuse me?? Well, you look like a dumbass who sucked at photography that I have to help him in everything!"

"That sounds awfully familiar! You must've got it from a TV show or something! Who's this boy then?"

"Mitsuba-"

Both of you stopped.

"Wait, Mitsuba?"

"[N/N]?!"

You both pointed each other.

"Did we just-"

"No, we didn't just do the spiderman meme. Forget it happened."

You pointed at your floating self. "EXPLAIN."

~•~

"So... we've got something we wanted to do, but left incomplete before we died?"

Mitsuba solemnly stares at the view over the school balcony. "Mm. Those are basically why ghosts exist."

He sighed. "But, sometimes we actually don't know what we want, so we have to figure it out ourselves."

"Woah! You sure know a lot!"

Mitsuba plays with his donated camera. "Yeah... at least that's what I think. It's only been a few weeks I've become a desperate, lonely aparrition."

You gasped and held your chest. "You admitted?"

"Hey!"

You laughed, clapping your hands to your knees. Mitsuba awkwardly looks at your feet. "How are you even used to those legs so fast?"

"I'm amazing." You stated, leaning yourself on the stairs. "So. You're now my senpai?"

Mitsuba lifts his eyes from his camera to your innocent look in your eyes. His cheeks turns to crimson red. "Mm, yeah..."

You grabbed his hands and cheerfully beamed. "Right then, from now on, please take care of me... Mitsuba-senpai!"

Mitsuba didn't say anything. You laughed at his embarassed look and turned to look at the view once again.

Mitsuba smiles and picks his camera up. He adjusted the camera, slowly rotating it to the angle he likes.

Click! Click! Click!

You heard the click, automatically turned to him. "Oh? What picture did you take?"

Mitsuba peeked from his camera, forming a closed eye smile. "Dunno... something important to me, I guess?"
