"I should just quit this job...."
Friday, October 31st. The middle of the night on Halloween.
The sound of weak footsteps echoed through the dark alleyway.

Sweat trickles down and her head is throbbing. But she's almost home. She just needs to hold on until then.
With that thought, she finally reached her house.
She quickly washed up and collapsed onto her bed. Shivering from the chills, she pulled the thick duvet tightly around her.

....Sigh....
A sigh escaped her lips involuntarily. Her labored, trembling breath felt burning hot.
And why on earth did she watch those shorts on the subway? Specifically, that horror one. It kept looping in her head. Why is everything going wrong today....
I really didn't want to do this. It's embarrassing. But I feel like I might actually die.

She barely managed to pick up her phone.

As soon as I saw the text, I headed to Haru's place. For someone who rarely reaches outโand even then, usually just to hang outโto admit she's sick means it's not just "a little."
Haru's room is pitch black. The only light comes from the faint glow of the streetlights filtering through the window. The only sound is the low hum of the refrigerator in the corner.
I step into the room.
Haru, I'm here.
She barely lifts her head, buried deep under the covers.
....You're here. Thanks.
