"Um, are you Hanako-san?" [Name] backed away while pointing an accusing finger at Hanako as he floats around his summoner, his chuckles echoed through the bathroom walls and chill ran up to [Name]'s spine from the cold presence.
"That's right!" Hanako cheered as he formed peace signs from his hands. [Name] scoffed in confusion, there's no way that this floating boy is Hanako since it was said that she has a short bob hair and a red jumpskirt, most specifically a girl-and he's clearly different from the rumors. "You can call me Hanako-kun, too."
"Where's your bob hair and jumpskirt?!" [Name] questioned with an angry tone.
"That's stuff's out of fashion nowadays." Hanako shrugged in reply.
"What the hell?" [Name] shuddered in disgust, cause first of all why is there a ghost boy in the girl's bathroom in the first place anyways? "Are you like those anime tropes where a girl dresses as a guy? Like Haruhi Fujioka from Ouran Highschool Host Club?"
"I am a boy." Hanako confirmed. "The rest of the rumors you heard are true. I grant a wish to whoever summons me and take one thing as payment." He floated down to the ground, putting his hands behind his back as he circles her around like some type of vulture. Hanako pokes one of her ear piercings that has a crescent moon and stars, making her shiver. "You have a wish right? Don't tell me you came here unprepared."
"Are you really...not just some perverted ghost?"
Hanako stood there with a closed eye smile as ghostly orbs encircled around him and on his palms. He kept on his smiling face until he lost it and sulks away to the bathroom with a depressed aura around him. "I'm done. Bye."
"Wait! Don't go!" [Name] tries to stop Hanako from leaving. "I mean, a boy Hanako-san sounds pretty cool, plus you look adorable-!" She says while trying to convince him to stay, she didn't summon him just for him to leave her. Hanako stops, his ears suddenly turning red from the compliment, then [Name] coughed after realizing what she just said.
"Cool...?" Hanako mumbled shyly, he smiles, grabbing his notebook and pen in a cheerful manner before turning to face [Name]. "Well then, so what's your name?~" He said as imaginary flowers appeared around him.
"My name is [Name] [Surname], you can call me [Name]." [Name] says while chewing on her bottom lip, crossing her arms as she watched Hanako list down her name to the notebook. "I don't mind first name basis as long as I don't hate you, I am from Class 1-A."
"So, what is your wish?"
[Name] raised her hand. "Can I ask some questions regarding to the wish?" She asked as Hanako nodded vigorously for her to continue speaking. "Do you perhaps have a specific wish granting rule, like you can't bring back the dead, you can't go back in time, you can't wish for more wishes or do you literally grant every wish?"
"I grant every wish but I have to take something from you in exchange, the greater the wish, the more I can take something from you~" Hanako grabbed her face with one hand with a smug on his face, though he did have an existential crisis on the inside when she asked him that question, it seems that she's not that gullible like the others who wished without thinking.
[Name] narrowed her eyes, grabbing his wrist and tore it away from her face. 'If I wished for my favorite anime characters to become real, would he grant it though? Something tells me that his wish granting has limits, I don't quite believe him when he says that he grants every wish.' She thought while having a staring contest with Hanako, who is waiting for her wish.
Soon, the memories of Souho came flooding inside her head, from the moment they met, the day he texted her that he likes her in which she reciprocated, then the constant coldness, rare meetings and half-assed lies that [Name] received. She hung her head low to cover her eyes with her bangs, realizing that she could use this opportunity to ask for a higher power to get revenge on Souho.
An idea popped inside her head, [Name]'s lips twisted into a hesitant smile, her hands nervously shook while running her fingers through her hand. "I wish for Shirasagi Souho to suffer having an unfortunate karma for disrespecting me-for ghosting me." [Name] says while gritting her teeth through her smile.
Hanako glanced up to his notebook. That was an unusual wish, especially for someone who asked him if there's limitations to his power and she just had to wish for that instead of going all out. "Are you sure you're not holding back something? You know you only get one wish."
"I'm not holding back." [Name] clenched her fists. "This is what I wanted..."
"You don't want a house, a car or a ring?"
[Name] shook her head. "Hanako-san, you shouldn't be doubting me. I really want Souho to suffer, I can't believe I gave him my heart but then he fucking treats me like this." [Name] slammed her fist against the wall, a loud thud echoing in the bathroom.
"Who is this Souho you're talking about anyways?" Hanako tilted his head in confusion. "Is he your ex-boyfriend? An ex-friend of yours?"
"Neither." [Name] shows Hanako her phone which contains a single picture of Shirasagi Souho, he has green hair that reaches to his chin with fringes swept slightly to the right. "He's not my boyfriend nor a friend, we're a thing-that unlabeled relationship, whatever the fuck that's called. He confessed to me through text and then I managed to like him back, then during the relationship he starts to distant himself saying that he has a lot of stuffs to do in school."
"We can only communicate in chat, and as days go by he replied less and less, until he stopped talking to me completely." [Name] snatches the phone back from Hanako.
"That doesn't make any sense." Hanako squints in confusion, he nodded and closed his notebook. "Alright, I'll help you initiate a plan to get revenge on your ex-boyfriend-I mean, your ex-unlabeled partnet to suffer.
"Can't you just use your ghostly powers to cast a spell on him, like make him trip and fall off the stairs?" [Name] questioned while following him outside to further more explain how to ruin his life. Hanako did not reply, there was an awkward silence between them. "Nevermind then...?"
"Where does he usually go to?"
"He's a member of the photography club." [Name] replied while hiding behind the wall to spy on Souho. Hanako picked up some cleaning supplies on his way such as a bottle of soap, a can of Febreze air freshener, and bleach. [Name] tensed up when she Souho entered the photography club-with another girl.
"[Name]?" Hanako suddenly turned to look at [Name] whose face changed into a fearful look, she puts her hand on her mouth in shock as her heart starts to race in anxiety, she did not just see him with a girl after he had ghosted her. [Name] takes a bottle of bleach as she poured the whole thing on the floor so that Souho could slip and fall. "Whoa, you seriously want to kill him off."
"First he ghosted me, now he has a side hoe-what the fuck?" [Name] chuckled sarcastically as she threw the empty bottle across the pool of bleach. "How much more does he plan to do shit like this behind my back?" She said while crawling back to her hiding place. "To be honest, you're a ghost and I realized that maybe you're much better than that guy, and you managed to talk to me as a ghost."
"This probably proves that people can be monsters too." [Name] sighed while hugging her knees. Before Hanako can even speak, the two of them heard Souho shout, followed by a loud thud. [Name] took a peek to see Souho on the ground, slipped from the liquid soap.
"What the actual hell is this? Is this bleach?" Souho stood up while his pants were dripping with bleach, it's going to turn white the next day since he's wearing dark pants. "Whoever did this, they should've put a warning sign in front of it."
[Name] rolled her eyes and gave him a subtle middle finger once he turns around. Hanako decided to step in and stop [Name] from getting any more murderous thoughts. "[Name], he's not worth it." He says. "Do you truly want to give this guy revenge or are you just mad that he ghosted you, you know you can't make right decisions when you're in the heat of the moment."
"Instead, why don't you approach him instead, confront him and tell him how you felt when he ghosted you." Hanako persuaded.
"I'm too prideful for that, I want him to realize how much he needs to suffer just for ghosting me." [Name] was now driven into hurting Souho, even having the thoughts of beating him up or killing him to an extent, but she didn't want to get in trouble. "Imagine them chatting first, then they end up ghosting you after."
"It sucks, especially when you really love that person."
Hanako had no choice but to fulfill her wish, something tells him that it wasn't what she truly wanted and that she's holding back because she couldn't trust him. "The next thing we can do is that we can add laxatives to his bento." He said while skimming through his notebook. [Name] listened to his plans, but then something dropped from Hanako's pocket that made her spark in interest.
An omamori.
