[6:00 am]
"Are I still alive?!"
He asks himself getting out of bed. He calmly walks over to the cell phone on the computer desk and turns it off.
"I can't go to school with this like this..."
The boy goes to the bathroom quickly, avoiding any encounter with his parents.
"Where?! Where?! Where did she leave it?!"
Jonas is in despair, searching every drawer for bandages that could cover his bruises.
"I found! Finally! Now I'm going to take a quick shower before they tease me."
Jonas did as he thought. After he's showered he puts on his school uniform, the bandages on his forearms, and the coat his aunt made him.
"Damn, I forgot there's basketball today! Something has to happen so I don't have to go today."
'You are very pale...they will ask...'
-Who's there?- asked the boy, wiping his glasses off the steam.
"I must be getting paranoid."
A shadow formed beside Jonas, the entity's calm expression causing the indifferent boy to widen his eyes.
'Hello. You lost a lot of your blood… delicious. You're going to get sick like that. Bye.'
–W-Wait! W-Who is… What are you?!
'Well, you'll find out soon enough. Oh, no need to speak out loud to me, I hear your thoughts.'
"Okay, but you still haven't answered me!"
'I can't tell you who I am, but you can call me Sune'
The entity disappears without saying anything else. The boy decides to ignore this momentarily and goes back to his room so he can put on his All-Stars. When he is finally ready, the boy goes downstairs to take his daily vitamin.
-Son, today you're not going to basketball. Your aunt is coming here for us to take care of something important.- says her mother, irritated, as always.
-Which one? - Asks the boy.
-The lawyer.- his father answers thickly.
-Right, I'm going to school. Until later.
-Don't you want a ride?- his father asks with false kindness.
-No, I'm going with my skateboard anyway.- he says in the bathroom, brushing his teeth, taking care that his device is properly cleaned.
Jonas runs into the bedroom again. The boy grabs his cell phone, his phone, his backpack, and his skateboard and goes to school quickly, listening to one of his favorite rock bands, Avenged Sevenfold, and the band's favorite album, Nightmare on the way. He arrives at school 5 minutes early.
-Hulk Jr, what took so long?- Denny asks.
-Since when does my personal life interest you?- he asks coldly.
The other was quiet, fiddling with his backpack until he took letters from Yu-gi Oh!!.
–Let's play after class?
–It won't work, I need to be at home as soon as I step out of school.
-Shit, huh!
The bell rings, interrupting Jonas before he even opens his mouth.
"What the fuck, today has started badly! Will he at least go home?"
'Who specifically are we talking about?'
The boy is slightly startled.
"Haunt! Stop appearing like that out of nowhere, damn it!"
The boy looks around, realizing that everyone acted normally, even with an entity at his side.
'Just realize I'm a haunt now? Pffff.'
"Only I can see you, right?"
'Yes, lucky for you I warned you earlier not to speak out loud. I don't usually notice.'
"I barely know you and already hate you! Fuck!"
'I haven't even done anything to you yet! Calm!'
"Actually, that's what worries me, you haven't done anything yet!"
The entity disappears again and leaves the boy, already in his room, in peace... or not.
–AE SON GENIUS OF THE HULK! PASS THE ANSWERS OF THE MATHEMATICS HOMEWORK, I DID NO. - shouts a boy from across the room, who Jonas barely knew.
Jonas decides to ignore anyone and everyone who might annoy him, apart from the teachers, of course.
Classes until break passed normally. Jonas does as usual, takes his cell phone, phone and sketchbook and goes to a place isolated from the others.
"Finally… peace!"
'Don't be so sure about that.'
The entity burst out laughing when seeing the boy give a small jump in fright.
"Mother f…"
'You can stop there. If my boss knows you're calling him that, I won't protect you!'
"Okay, I don't care, what I most want is to die!"
'Okay then, I can do this for you.'
The entity sat beside the boy, smiling ghoulishly.
"H-How?"
'Simple, you just need to sell your soul to me! Well, you will never be able to reincarnate, but you will have three wishes. '
The boy pondered this, not knowing whether or not he should trust the haunting beside him.
"What good are the three wishes if I'm going to die?!"
'Do you accept or not?'
"No, go away! I just want to draw in peace!"
The boy turned on the music and ignored the being beside him, managing to make two other sketches alongside the Karma he had managed to do the day before. His little project was to make his three favorite red-haired characters from three different animes: Akabane Karma, by Ansatsu Kyoushitsu, Akasuna No Sasori, by Naruto, and Kirishima Eijirou, by Boku no Hero.
'Hey boy! I think you should go to your room now. '
The entity's voice sounded louder than the music in their headphones. Jonas looked at the entity in thanks and stood up, taking off his headphones and walking towards his classroom.
'How boring, why do you humans come here?'
"Because we need to learn some things so we can live! Now be quiet, now it's history class!"
The entity was silent and disappeared again, the boy went to talk to his dear History teacher, for being the genius of the class, of course he would be a friend of the teachers. The other classes were calm, all the others being in History and the last in Geography.
'It's finally over, huh! This is boring!'
"I still don't know why you followed me to school."
'Because I wanted to!'
Jonas ignored the other's childish action, climbed on the skateboard and went home listening to the entity's complaints.
Arriving at his house, Jonas sees his aunt's car parked beside his father's.
'Who do you want your aunt to be with?'
"No one you care about."
They entered the house slowly.
'No need to be cold to me, boy, being what I am, I know you more than anyone around you. I know your secrets… I know your fears… I know your insecurities… I know your desires… I confess that I found everything I know about you interesting, little masochistic boy.'
The mocking tone in the entity's voice irritates Jonas, but he prefers to ignore the other and go to his room, finding whoever he most wanted to see.
-Loli!- a tall boy greets Jonas squeezing him in a tight hug.
-Hello, Obito. I thought you wouldn't be here.- Jonas hugged her back.
'So it was this kid you wanted to find, but why the fuck call him Obito?! And why the fuck call you Loli?!'
"Didn't you say you knew everything about me? Why don't you know about this?"
'I want to see you telling me that! Haha.'
The entity let out a sadistic laugh.
-Loli, my little cousin, what good have you been doing?
-Well, I joined a basketball team, but I'm still not very good.- Jonas went towards his bed, lying down in it.
–How do you score points? Does someone from there pick you up?
-What?! No! My aim is good, ok! It doesn't have to be a pole to be able to make a basket!- the smaller boy replies indignantly.
'Post hahah. What are the others who play with you tall? 2 meters? Haha ha.'
"Almost that."
'I know you are exaggerating.'
Jonas again ignored the other and turned his attention to his cousin.
-Why did you come?- Curiosity shone in Jonas' eyes.
-Didn't you like us being here?- the other pretended sadness.
-Of course I liked it! You two do me good, very good. You mostly.
-Hahahah, I know! Just kidding. But I came to sleep here, my mother I don't know.
-Cool, how about we spend the night playing? - Jonas suggests, turning on the computer.
'You already passed out yesterday, didn't rest, and today you still want to stay overnight? Crazier than you just me and the people I came from.'
"Stop being boring! You don't boss me around, you can't even tell me what to do, so shut up!"
'Actually, I do boss you around and if you want to stay alive so as not to upset your cousin, you better obey me. And you owe me one, I saved you yesterday!'
"Shut up!"
-To turn the night? Don't you have class tomorrow? - the biggest of them ponders.
-Yeah, but no problem, I usually sleep at 3 am.- He shrugged.
-With me here you don't sleep at this hour! I'm taking care of my little cousin today and he won't have a bad night's sleep, mainly because I know you have an alarm clock that goes off at 5am," he says, smiling and squeezing his cousin's left cheek.
'Hahah, I liked him.'
"Shut up!"
Jonas turns his attention to the computer, putting one of his favorite games to play with his cousin, Ultimate Chicken Horse.
-Now it will be good! Hahahahah.- comments Obito.
-Will even! I go with the squirrel!
'A cute animal for a cute little boy hahah, I knew it!'
"I'm not cute!"
'Okay so, you're not cute and I'm not a devil! Hahahah. '
"Aff."
-Hmmm, I'm going with the raccoon since your brother is not here.
They started the game, Sune just watching and making a few comments as she laughed when Jonas lost or died.
