Chapter 1: Why?
My name is Lucy and I am eighteen years old and in love with a normal human being. To say the least, He loved another. Though, he cares for Yuka daily. I'm just a fragment in his life. Someone who could be tossed away and never be able to regain the place in his heart again. Nyuu however is part of me and he showers her with attention not knowing it's me.
"Nyuu, you okay? Your so flushed. Maybe we should lay down smiled Kouta, picking me up bridal style and causing me to flush even worse.
Nyuuuu... I whine, trying not to look into his beautiful eyes that I could get lost into. Soon, there's a puddle of water out of no where and we fall, as I hit my head, I come out and Nyuu goes inside to rest. Kouta looks at me worriedly, but I shrug him off and don't bask in his glow of kindness. Tears slwoly sliding down my cheeks, I remember everything I've done and no god will ever save me from this life. Mariko comes in with her wheel chair and pats my head as nana stubbornly sits from afar, making sure I don't run. My two best friends are Diclonious like me, but my past is as worse but not as bad as mariko's. Mariko sings a lullaby as I lay my head on her shoulder in a friendly way. We became friends when her father disappeared. Nana never had parents like me and Mariko and acts like the middle child of the group. We were enemies once, but we all thought we deserved some happiness and pledged to be sisters.
Lu-chan, are you gonna be okay? Asked mariko, touching my arm gently. Pulling away from her touch, it reminded me of Kouta's touch that he did when we were young.
In my head, I always think why couldn't I be human? Why is Yuka the one for Kouta? Will I ever get my chance? These thoughts always come to me in my sleep as my inner monster mocks me. I'm tired of being always last inb kouta's heart. I say out loud for mariko and Nana to hear.
What are you gonna do? asks Nana and mariko, looking at each other then looking back at me.
Nothing drastic I say, sighing real loud as Mariko smiles and nods her head, understanding my plan. Nana, however stood dumbfounded and confused. Before I could speak the music box played, bring back memories of my past, as tears slipped out of my eyes, everything went black.
