Waves of Destiny

Sachiko, Tetsuya, and I took another taxi back home. Only an hour and a half remained before work started, so Sachiko and I stayed in the living room, while Tetsuya headed to his room to rest a little more before starting his week-long job hunt.

I lit up a cigarette as Sachiko turned the TV on and switched to the news channel. As usual, most of the news was stuff that made you doubt if humans were going to be around in ten years.

"Who would've thought that Kyōko and your brother could swap bodies," said Sachiko.

I exhaled the smoke out of my lungs. "Yeah."

"How do you feel about it?"

"Weird. It's also a little triggering knowing they'll have to go through what we went through, though there shouldn't be many problems as long as they don't swap bodies with a third person."

"That's true. What about them kissing or having sex?"

I glanced at her before brushing my face with my hand.
