Second chapter up! This is Kuroko thinking about his death. It is kind of depressing. Give it a read and please review!
Kuroko never thought he would die so early. He imagined himself getting old and babysitting and spoiling his grandchildren. But here he was on the verge of making his twenty five year old wife a widow and his three year old daughter fatherless. He did not want to die. But he had to give people an illusion that he was happy to accept death. Because he did not want people to grieve for him forever. He wanted them to move on.
He thought about Aomine and Momoi on the threshold of starting a family. He did not want them both to drown themselves in grief and forget about their new born child. That's why he had not told them about his illness yet. He had told a selected number of people that he was the hospital- Kagami and team Seirin. That's it. Not a single member of the Generation of Miracles knew other than Midorima.
He wanted to be invisible. The best thing he could do. He would misdirect people's attention to other things and die alone not causing many tears to be shed.
Yes he wanted to run away. Run away from reality. Run away from the fact he was dying.
He had purposely started acting rude to his wife and daughter to grow distant from them. If she hates me he thought, she won't remember me. His daughter would erase the memory of this rude man from her three year old mind. Kids at that age don't remember much. A very big plus point for Kuroko.
He had only met Kagami since he got to know about his illness. He had sent Riko and Hyuga a note saying that did not wish to meet them or the rest of team Seirin. He also personally called Kiyoshi for he knew how soft the guy was and ordered him not to come.
Midorima had been his second visitor after Kagami. Midorima knew and that posed a danger to Kuroko. What if he called Akashi and the others? How would they react? Would they be sad that Kuroko did not inform them? Would Momoi have a miscarriage from the depression? Would Kise goon drugs? Would Aomine commit suicide? Would Murasakibara give up sweets for good?Would the Generation of Miracles would be ruined because of someone invisible like him?
Question after question. No answer. Life was a melancholy drama at the moment and sadly he was the main player. No one else starred in it. He had to deliver a monologue to the world. The monologue was clearly going to be his death.
Yes he Kuroko Tetsuya was going to die and he could not do anything about it.
