So this is going to be a short one. I am still in the middle of gathering my ideas for the next chapter and trying my best putting them into words soooo in the meanwhile, please enjoy this short update.
When Akashi turned 5, his mother gave him a kitten as a present. The kitten's fur was orange with a hint of red, it has different coloured eyes, one red one yellow. For some reasons, Akashi strangely adored the new kitten. He liked it a lot, especially its eyes colours.
Akashi and Masuru, he named the kitten that, were always seen together. He took really great care of Masuru, from feeding to petting to showering, etc. Akashi himself did them all. So when Masuru disappeared one night, Akashi was so worried. He cried his eyes out, even his beloved mother couldn't comfort him. That was one of those few moments which Akashi shed his tears. A week later, Masuru returned. Akashi was relieved as well as angry. He was relieved because Masuru was fine and it came back. He was angry because Masuru didn't behave itself and left him just like that. Akashi didn't like the feeling of being abandoned. So, when he saw the kitten on his bed, the mixture of those two feelings were boiling inside him. They fought against each other. Eventually, the anger won.
Just do it, punish it for it abandoned you and came back like nothing happened. A voice inside his head was speaking to him and it sounded so familiar. So very familiar. Then blackness came.
When the redhead opened his eyes, the scene before him left him speechless. On the floor, there lay Masuru in a pool of blood. It seemed his kitten was being stabbed to death. Who could have done such horrible thing to his lovely pet? Who? The boy got his answer when he saw a blood stained scissor in his hand.
"No...it couldn't be...no...what have I done?!" mumbled to himself, Akashi dropped the scissor as he was backing away from his victim.
"This is not my doing, I wouldn't do such thing, no this is not-" and he lost it. He broke down and sobbed. The guilt was consuming his petite body. It was eating, chewing him slowly, inside out. With his bloody hand, he covered his mouth to suppress a scream threatening to escape. His vision was blurred due to the tears but he couldn't stop them. Then, the voice came.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you sad. I just thought that the cat deserved it for abandoned you. Please don't cry..."
"Who...who are you? Why do you sound like me?"
"I am you, I am Akashi Seijuurou. You can say that I am another you."
"I...I don't get it. You said you are me but I wouldn't do such thing to Masuru...and why can I talk to you but I can't see you?"
"You are you, I am I. We are two, but also one. Do you get it now?"
The truth slowly made its way to Akashi. He was 5 years old when he discovered he has multiple personality disorder. He was 5 years old when he discovered there was another him, another Akashi Seijuurou. And the first thing they did together was to find a spot in the garden and buried their victim.
I know it's short but how is it? Anyway this chapter will be important for the next one so stick with me okay guys ^^ like always thank you for reading and please review :D
