I did some drabbles on Tumblr and I decided that I will be adding to it here and there.
Chapter 1
Kougami
Life is good, maybe a little too good but I mustn't complain about the blessings that I have been given and instead I should be thankful for every minute of goodness that I have in my life because you never know when things can go sour. You just don't know when financially you might crumble, that your health will start to fail you or when you'll lose someone dear to you so while you have all those things, we should cherish them all.
If you had asked me a few years ago if I believed in love, my answer would have been no. I didn't believe in it, I had been burned so many times that I had just given up on it completely but then everything change one morning when I entered the small local café and there he was just sitting there reading a book that I had read so many times before and I'm not sure why I approached him. Maybe it was the book or maybe it was something else that morning but I initiated and it continued to what I have today.
I love this man, I love everything about him. I love his soft raven hair, his soft snow white skin and those vibrant green eyes of his. There is nothing that I don't love about him and he just makes me want to be a better person. He's my soul mate; I'll never be able to love another as much as I love him. He's my one and only and I'll protect him until my last day on this earth.
I think I did a good call to take time off today, I may not be the best to do some house work and cooking but I want to make a nice surprise and I think everything will turn out okay.
Everything is in order. Laundry is done, folded and stored in their rightful places. I vacuumed and dusted every room and attempted to clean the bathroom but I totally sucked at it but at least I tried. I should get brownie points for that and dinner is starting to smell delicious.
"Kougami."
I look over my shoulder as I heard my name. The apartment is completely empty, I see absolutely nothing so I simply shrug it off and continue preparing dinner when I hear my name being called out again and this time I could have sworn that the voice was closer and yet there's nothing.
The week has been long and work has been pretty stressful as of late so it has to be it. I'm just a bit tired and I'm just simply hearing things that aren't there.
"Kougami."
The same voice but this time it was much louder and I'm sure it wasn't just a fabrication of my mind.
I abandon the stove and go into the living room and look around and see nothing until I notice something. There's nothing… Things are missing in the living room. Picture frames and potted plants have disappeared and as I turned around the coffee table just suddenly vanished into thin air and I rush back into the kitchen only to find the pots are no longer on the stove and one by one everything is disappearing as I start sinking into the floor until all goes pitch black and then I'm greeted by a blinding light and blurry faces.
It takes a few seconds before my vision to settle and the faces to adjust.
"Gino?" I groggily ask as I search the room for his raven hair, his snow white skin and those vibrant green eyes.
"What?" I voice asks as I soon recognize to belong to Sasayama who's smiling and trying to hold in a laugh as he comes closer to me. "Kou you just came out of six month coma so don't worry, I'm completely aware that you make no sense at all."
I what?
That can't be.
I look around in a panic. I see Sasayama and an older man that I'll assume must be my doctor but that's all. There isn't anyone else here.
I look at my hand and see no ring on my finger and I feel nothing around my neck when there should have been something there. The necklace that Gino gave me on our first anniversary together and my wedding ring should be around my finger to prove that we got married.
My husband, my wedding band… Everything that should be here isn't here.
Gino wasn't real… It just can't be but Sasayama's expression only further tells me that it wasn't
