It's been 4 days since that incident at the market and the proposal at the hospital happened. Up until now, I'm still shocked that demons really exist. It's unbelievable but it appeared in front of me so.. it's true. Unfortunately, because I caused trouble at the market, they kicked my ass out and for the 7th time, I have no job again.
I don't know what to do. I have a sister to feed but because of what happened, I lost my job.
'What to do now?'
Honestly, the offer of the Anti-Demon is still open but I can't decide yet. My life will be in danger and there's a big possibility that I might die while fighting a demon and my sister would be lonely forever.
I don't want that to happen.
"Onii-chan.."
"Hmm?"
"Onii-chan wake up!"
"Give me 3 minutes.."
"You have a visitor, Onii-chan!"
H-Huh? Visitor?
"Geesh, your brother is indeed a mess huh? Shira-chan."
The voice seems familiar but I don't care at all. I've been up all night thinking and I'm really exhausted--
"OUCH!"
I touched my back softly as I stare at the girl who kicked me out from bed. "WHAT THE HECK, TOYA?!"
She winked. Instead of feeling thrilled because of what she just did, I almost freaked out.
"What are you doing here?!"
She leaned on the near wall and pointed her index finger at me. "We need your answer now."
"Huh?!"
"Are you joining or not?"
My sister stood beside me and touched my shoulder. "You'll join to.. what? Onii-chan." I know that she's confused right now.
I ran my hands through my hair. "Shira, you'd be late at school, go now."
"But, onii-chan--"
"I'll tell you later, okay?"
She twirled her hair before nodding. She smiled and waved at the door before leaving.
"Now.." I glanced at Toya but she's not paying attention to me, she's playing with her short hair. "Toya.."
"Hmmm? What now? Join or not?"
I took a deep sigh. "If I join now, is my sister would be safe whenever I'm not around?"
"Of course, when you climbed in a higher rank, you could also request for a bodyguard for her."
My eyes widened, "Really?!"
"Yes.. and besides," from her coat, she took something out. "Your salary would be this big."
The moment I laid my eyes at the paper.. I almost passed out.
The digits were that.. BIG! I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO REACT! EVEN IF I WORK ALL NIGHT SOMEWHERE, I WOULD NEVER EARN THIS IN JUST A MONTH!
This is a win-win situation.
"So.. what no--"
"I'll join!"
**
It's awkward.
Really, really, really, really.. awkward.
I want to sit quietly and just chill with music inside the car but how could I? If Toya's starring at me like she's ready to kill me anytime while smiling?
'It's a lot better if Mika was the one who went to our apartment and waited for my answer instead of this crazy b*tch.'
I feel like I would die early when I stay near her.
I looked away and just focused on the view at the car's window. We live here in Kyoto but since Mika informed me before that the main office or main house of the Anti-Demons Association is in Tokyo, I have no choice but to transfer Shira in Tokyo too. I learned that there's an apartment for the hunters so that's where we'd live for now. I'll buy our own house soon.
I yawned and blinked three times but when I opened my eyes, a different view shocked me.
We're in a tunnel!
With a confused face, I glanced at Toya. "What the heck was that? I clearly remember that we're still at the street near our apartment--"
"Anti-Demons is not an ordinary association, Shi-chan." With her famous evil grin, she cut my words off.
Minutes later, we finally reached the end of the tunnel and a very big building welcomed us.
It's not just an ordinary building because it's like a spider web that has a lot of parts. There's a really big building at the middle part and there's the 'spider web like' that the other limbs were long and high building.
"Welcome to A.D.A house, Shi Matsui."
And here I am, shock and still amaze at the whole place. "Wow.."
