Double Suicide

Ch 39

POV Haruto Nishikawa

"You sing next Nishikawa."

"Put in your song."

Looking at the scene before me I suddenly felt overwhelmed. If somebody came up to me last year and told me that I would have a day where I would enjoy karaoke with people who I could call friends I would have laughed… no…, ignored that person and continue to sit in the lonely corner. This was the second time I did something like this and I still couldn't shake off the impostor syndrome I was feeling.

"Nishikawa kun are you ok?" Hiwari san's sweet voice from beside me woke me up from my reverie.

"Huh? Oh yeah. I just spaced out for a second. Give me the tablet, I will enter my songs."

When did my life change from grey to pink? The faces of two people flashed in my mind. If it wasn't for Makoto kun for helping me out initially I am sure I would have never broken out of my shell, and… if it wasn't for Hiwari san, I would never want to come out of the shell.
