A Cheeky Childhood Friend Found a Suicide Note I’d Written for Fun a Long Time Ago, and as a Result, She Suddenly Became Very Clingy and Wouldn’t Leave Me
In the morning, I was very surprised to see my mom by the bed, trembling and staring at me. But it was understandable that she would be surprised to see me being hugged by an elementary school student.
I explained the situation to her from the beginning and managed to clear up the misunderstanding.
“Oh, it’s true. I didn’t realize that he had contacted me.”
“Oh, you’re in regular contact with Father and the others?
“Yes. It was an amicable divorce after all〜”
Maybe it was because I couldn’t explain the intricacies of my family when I was little, or maybe it was because I didn’t listen to them properly in the past.
I never knew about it until now.
“Hmmm….? Good morning, Onii sama…….”
“Oh, good morning, Sarina chan. Here, my mom is back.”
“Mom……?”
She rubbed her eyes and looked at my mom, who then tottered sleepily over to me and, with a thud, fell onto my lap.
“That’s my daughter……! ! !”
“Stop it, Mom. I don’t like it when you say it like it’s some kind of a monster.”
“How dare you〜?”
She shows some anger, but perhaps because Sarina chan is there she keeps it mild.
This is the power of Sarina chan. It feels like I can do anything now and get away with it. But I won’t.
“If you knew about Sarina chan and all that, you’d understand, right? That person is not a scum.”
“……ell, just in case. But why didn’t you let me know?”
“You’re smart. That’s why I thought you’d solve the problem, even though you’re so young and have so few connections.”
For better or worse, I was an honest person when I was young, and if I had been told the truth, I’m sure I would have stood up to help my father.
I was a child, no matter how much of a genius I was. I didn’t have much companionship, and I was powerless.
–But now, I’m different.
I’m probably smarter than I used to be, and I have made various friendships with Kaori, Fuyuki, Akira kun, Kosuke, and others. I have made various friendships.
So now was the time to raise the wolf smoke of rebellion.
“Okay, then, let’s go make up…”
“Where are we going?”
“To your father’s place.”

Sarina chan’s mother came to pick us up first thing in the morning, and we got in the car and went to see my dad.
On the way, my mom and Sarina chan’s mother were talking happily, and I guess they must be really close.
After a few minutes in the car, we arrived at our destination.
It was a reasonably large house, and I was told that the Sasagawa family’s mansion was nearby, so I entered the house with caution.
I took off my shoes and opened the door to find a familiar face waiting for me.
“Ah, erm…..it’s been a long time,…Serito.”
“……Father.”
He was a little frightened and his eyes were swimming awkwardly. He seemed frightened by my every move, and when I sighed his shoulders twitched.
I’m relieved to see that nothing seems to have changed.
“It’s been a while. I’m not angry. I’m the one who’s been avoiding you, so I’m sorry.”
“Hey, don’t hug me ! I mean, whoa ! Don’t rub your tears and snot on me ! It’s dirty !”
“Gah !? Serito hit me ! ! I’m so happy…..! ! !”
“That’s gross…..”
He hugged me, cried like a dam had burst, and spewed all sorts of things, so I punched him and pulled him off.
Once I got him to wipe his tears and snot and whatnot, we sat down in a chair and talked. But that alone was boring, so we played chess.
We talked about how things had been after the divorce, what had happened up to today, and so on……
It was hard to deal with him getting so happy and upset and crying every time, but I was glad that nothing had changed.
“…So, changing the subject, are the rumors about them trying to frame my father true?”
“Hmm? Ah, Sarina chan told him, so we can talk about it.”
“It’s dangerous so stop…I want to tell you that, but…”
The chess game is approaching its final board and my father is looking bitter. And,
“Checkmate.”
“……I lost. You’re getting stronger, Serito.”
In the past, I couldn’t win at all, and I had repeatedly challenged him to many games and lost, but I never thought I would be able to win so easily now.
I took one look at my father’s face and saw that he was smiling very happily even though he had lost.
“Yes, it’s okay now. Serito, you can do it. I’m not strong enough. So you can give your father a good scolding. …..I know it’s not something I should ask of a child, but I’m sorry…”
“It’s fine because I don’t like that house. I’m gonna destroy it with all my might, so look forward to it, Father.”
I’m going to be busier than ever.
But I’m going to do it. I will do everything I can to destroy that abominable house and I will use everything I can……! ! !
