Day 14 - Irrelevant Info


I pulled my scarf up to my nose to hold back a sneeze. Yato clicks his tongue condescendingly.

"It's not healthy to hold your sneeze, you know." Scoffing, I push him lightly.

"Thank you for that useless information, Mr. High and Mighty." Giving a thumbs up, he puts his arms behind his head. A question pops up into my head that I had been meaning to ask.

"Why did you reject severing our ties? Wouldn't you have loved to never see me again?" He stops in his tracks and I follow. The god rests his hand on my head and denies my request.

"I never go back on my promises. I will fix your leg." His fist clenches and he makes a heroic pose. If it wasn't for the ridiculous pose, I would have believed he was serious.

"That didn't exactly work the first time, so what could you do differently?" A thoughtful look etches in his face and he shrugs innocently.

"You're the worst god I've ever met." His head drops dramatically.

"Give me some credit," holding up his glass jar of five yen coins, a defeated tear rolls down his face and he sniffles.

"Says the man with no shrine."
