8: Suicide


There was a girl standing by the rooftop. Ready to jump.

Rin: what the...

Zelda: eh... Maybe she needs a little nudge.

Rin: what are you thinking of doing?

Zelda headed back into the school. He followed her and blocked her way " what are you trying to do? "

Zelda grins " a little fun. "

Rin: no!!!

" So much justice. Unlike your parents. I don't understand about you." She kicked him in the stomach and he falls. She walks past him. He grabs onto her ankle. She stared down  coldly " let go. Or I'll make your wrist hurt. It's ok to not be heroic now."

Rin: no!!

She steps onto his wrist with her other leg and he was forced to release. She proceeded up the stairs.

Zelda: hello. What's your name?

" Eh... Who are you ? "

Zelda : Miuegel Zelda. You?

" Elaine..."

Zelda: I see. Elaine. Why do you want to jump.

Elaine: I... I... My grades are horrible. I can't ever do well. My future won't be good. Might as well get out of the suffering now...

Rin chased up " don't jump!! "

Zelda: I see. Go ahead. Jump.

Rin takes a step forward " don't!!!"

Elaine: don't come near!!

Zelda: everyone's waiting for you to jump. See everyone below?

Elaine looks " yes... They... Want me to jump? "

Zelda: yes. They think you're a failure. Like whoever is disappointed in you.

Elaine cries " you're... Right... "

Rin: don't listen to her!!

Zelda: a waste of space.

Rin: shut up!!! Zelda!!!

Zelda: Just like everyone else.

Elaine: wait. What?

Zelda: everyone's a waste of space. No one person can do their job right. No one person can guarantee their future is perfect. Unfortunately... Not even me. Sure, it annoys me to hell that the things I plan becomes... Unpredictable...

Then she grins "but at the same time... Those factors make it so fun. "

Elaine: fun...? what are you talking about?!! Failure isn't fun!!!

Zelda: you're so boring. Of course failure isn't fun. Because you think it's not fun. You only know how to be defeated. You don't know how to stand up or learn from it. You're worse than a failure.

Elaine: I'm... Worse... Than a failure...

Rin: that's not true!!! You tried your very best!! It's just... It's just you couldn't reach it. It's not your fault that you couldn't reach it. It's ok to fail. I fail in a lot of things

Zelda: remember. If you want to die. Head first. Then you won't be in concussion or anything horrible like a vegetable.

Rin: Elaine... Come down... It's ok.

Zelda: it's not ok. After she comes down, you can guarantee, she doesn't need to face disappointment anymore?

Rin; shut up Zelda!!

Elaine: she's right...

Zelda: then jump. Prove to everyone you're worse than a failure who can't solve her problems. Can't learn from her failure.

Elaine: I don't want to be like that!!! I just...

Zelda: just want to please everyone. Stop trying so hard. You can barely please yourself.

Elaine: can I do that? Please myself ... Is that ok?

Zelda: everyone has a choice. You make your own choices. To jump. Not to jump. To accept you fail. Or escape it, by jumping. Remember. Head first.

Elaine hesitates.... she comes down " you'll help me... ? "

Zelda flicks her hair " I need to get paid for these things. " And she leaves.

Rin: are you ok?

Elaine: I... Think so...
