Chapter 3.2

Light and Darkness II

"So, Before I start this chapter. I'm going to tell you all the truth. As what did you read in the previous chapter, There was a character named Ai and Rika. Are their names is only that? Ofc, Not. Just who is Ai and Rika? Actually, In the previous season of this story. Hikari joined the Anime company and worked with them. Also, Every people that he meet in the story is a person that exists in the real world. But for your Information, Rika and Ai is the name that Hikari called them. It was not their real name. Ai full name is Anju Inami meanwhile Rika is Aida Rikako. In S2 of Hikari Origin, When Hikari meet with them. Hikari says that their name was so hard for him to spell out. so he just shortens their names into Ai and Rika. But in this chapter, was a story about Hikari and someone that have the same fate as him. But their way to face their fate is different. I didn't say that the person that has the same fate as Hikari was following the wrong way for her to fulfill her dream. But there was a difference between them. As Hikari, He loses everyone that was too dear for him in the way. A people who tell him about life and what is the world. The person who tells Hikari how beautiful life is. The person who gives him the courage to stand till now. and of course, Hikari is me. Everything that happens in the story, Is happens in the real life. But at this time, there will not be a story for Hikari. Even it was a bit related to each other. well, knowing it. I was so shocked at first. But well, The world isn't about me anymore and at first. Because this story is about us. A people who live in the world. (But not everyone, It was a people who has been chosen to appear in this story.) This story is happening at the same time as when did Ageru going to help Nimura."

When Hikari was walking home, He suddenly got an email from Akaru. Akaru told him to quickly go to the hacker's place. He says that was an important thing. Hikari understands it then he quickly goes there. When Hikari arrives there, he saw a man with a black coat was standing in front of the door of Hackers place.

"Who are you, the intruders? are you planning to do something here?"

"No, that's not it. I just heard about you from someone. So, I was thinking that you can help us. well, this was from her fans after all. I hope that you can accept it."

That man gives Hikari one letter. He was begging in Hikari to do it. So Hikari opens the letter to know what did they told him to do.

"Hey, Hikari Aigami. I heard a lot of things about how did you face your fates on your own. But did you know, There was someone that has a fate that similar to you? We want to help her, But we can't. Our level maybe was different. So can you help us? by looking after her. We just wanted to know about her real problem. We have discussed and we were thinking that you're the only one who can help us with this."

Hikari tells a man in a black coat that he will help them. Then that man gives money to Hikari. Hikari quickly rejects it. Hikari says to that man "You do not need to pay me! I just doing a request from the others to make them smiles. I'm not asking for money, but I'm asking for happiness." That man smiled then he kept the money with him. So Hikari asks him "Then, who is the person that you guys tell me to look after?"

"It was a girl named Terakawa Aimi."

Hikari quickly types that name in his phone.

"I don't know what did she was facing in her life. But I heard from someone that she blem. But she was hiding it from everyone. So, I want you to do this."

Hikari nods his head then says

"Well, make Everyone smile was my job after all. I will take it. I do anything that can make others smiles."

That man understands it, So he says to Hikari to add his email and he will contact him later. After that, they get out of there.

When Hikari was outside, Suddenly he got a lot of messages from someone. He didn't know who was the people who sent him that message. But the message that He sent to Hikari is

"There was no way for you to run. Just make sure that you will survive. Hikari. Can you achieve your dream with your precious one? Why don't you answer me? What's the matter?"

The person keeps sending him the same question. Hikari just ignores the message then focuses on what will that man says. That man gives Hikari a contact of a person that they told him to talk with her. After that, Hikari goes to his home.

At home, Hikari was wondering "Is there have a person who has a fate that related to me? it was too hard to believe it." Suddenly Yami comes out and says "Cmon, are you showing me how dumb you are?" Hikari shook his head and says "that's not it, well I hope that I can help her because that guy was so serious about it." Yami just nods his head and says "Ok, now you should rest and prepare for it." Hikari nods his head then he skips the day.

On the next day, Hikari wakes up and saw a lot of emails on his phone. He looked at it an email from a guy that he meets yesterday. That guy asks Hikari a confirmation and he sent Hikari a location that they should meet. That message has been sent an hour ago. Hikari quickly gets out and says "I were late!?!? What should I do??!? They maybe will mad at me!?"

Because the place was near to where did he live, Hikari just runs there. When Hikari was running there because he was in a hurry, he bumped into someone and fell to the ground with a person that he bumped with.

Hikari was so shocked when he saw that it was a girl. Hikari quickly apologizes to that girl about it. But that girl just stands up and smiles, She says to Hikari "Don't worry, it was my fault too because I didn't notice that you were in front of me." Suddenly, Yami asks Hikari "I see it, Hikari. A new partner?" Hikari says that it isn't like what did Yami be thinking. Then they started sneezing with each other. That girl was so weird about it, but she was thinking that it was really funny. So she laughed and asks Hikari "Hey, why with you? Stop that. Anyway, I have something to do. But I think that it is still early for that. If you want, let's go to a restaurant near here. So, we can talk."

Hikari was in a hurry, But he was a bit hungry because he hasn't eaten yet. So he accepts it and says "well, I think there is still a time for me. Let's go." Then he goes to the restaurant and started talking.

Hikari sits at the table and asks that girl "Before that, let me confirm it. This is not a date right?" that girl smiled and says "Of course not, why? don't tell me that you're nervous." Hikari shook his head and tell that he isn't nervous at all. he just didn't use to talk with girls often. When Yami hears that, he says to Hikari "Stop telling lies Hikari. just tell her that you want her to become your girlfriend." Hikari tries to ignore Yami. But Yami just didn't stop talking about it. He keeps saying "Just tell it Hikari."

Hikari tries to ignore him. But it was too hard. But when Hikari was thinking about what should he say. The girl asks him "Since we Are here, can you tell me your name?" Hikari agreed with it. Then he tells that girl his name

"I'm Hikari Aigami, you can call me Hikari. I just worked with a people that I didn't know."

That girl understands it then she introduces Hikari about her name.

"You can call me Aimi. Well, same as you. I also work with people that I didn't know. But it was really fun. Making friends and other things."

Hikari suddenly gets hyped up when he hear about making friends. He says to Aimi

"You also interested in making a lot of friends? Well, it same as me. How if you-"

When Hikari was talking about it. He saw Aimi was looked down when she hears Hikari talking about making friends. He was feeling sorry about it. He says to Aimi "Sorry if I say something wrong. I never mean to hurt you." But Aimi just shook her head and smiled. She says to Hikari that it was nothing.

Hikari doesn't want to talk about it anymore. Since it looks like those words were reminding Aimi of something else, Hikari quickly changes the situation. He says to Aimi "Well, I wonder when our order will come." Aimi knows that Hikari was avoiding talking about her life. Then Aimi asks Hikari "Hey, can we get more closer? I mean by being best friends or something." Hikari gladly accepts it. Then he says to Aimi "Of course, In my own rules. The people who talk with me are already my friends. But they just need to understand my feelings and they must let me understand what do they feel t become my best friends."

Then their order has arrived. before they're going to eat, There was something in Aimi's mind. So she asks Hikari about it "Hey, you were in hurry too before right? did it was still early for you to do the things?" Hikari finally remembers it. what did he need to do? it was a request from the others.

"You're right, how in the world did I forget about it. They maybe will kill me! I must go. But well... I think I should eat this first. For my own sake!"

Aimi laughed about it, and she says to Hikari "Is this how did you are, every day?" Hikari started thinking about it and says "Maybe I am dumb as always? I don't really know about it. So, Should we eat?" Aimi agreed with it then they eat the meal.

After they were done eating, Hikari and Aimi get out of the restaurant. But, before they go to a place they want to go to. Hikari asks Aimi "Hey, did you have an email? maybe we can contact each other after this. W-Well it's not like I loved you. But i-if I loved you then it just because you're my friends after all. It just I wanted to become your friend forever." Aimi was feeling that it was funny when she saw Hikari act like that. She just gives Hikari her email and goes away.

Then both of them run to a place that they have to go.

When Hikari meets with them, they give Hikari the information about a person that they want Hikari to help him asks Hikari "So, how long are going make me waiting huh?" Hikari tries to apologize for his fault. the man just accepted it because Hikari was going to help him anyway. So that man gives the contact of a person that he told Hikari to look after. but when Hikari looked at it, it was a girl that he meets before. Hikari was so frustrated about it. He says to that man "If this is a person, Why don't you tell me about it earlier?!? you're making it more difficult!!"
