《Silent Couple// Toge Inumaki x Reader》Chapter 18: Festival 🎎

TW: One sentence about suicide.
It's been 2 weeks since my uncle Ryo-kun died and it was pretty obvious I have not been coping with it well...
I had big eye bags under my eyes since I haven't slept in days, I couldn't keep up with my studies well AT ALL, I was turning really pale since I never really got out of my room unless needed to, and I have been crying at random times of the day.
Once I even considered ending myself, but then I thought that if I did Ryo-kun would have left me for no reason so that option completely left my mind.
My friends and teachers were all trying to cheer me up by trying to make me go out or to hang out with them but I would always turn them down, and thankfully they all agree and never push me to do something I didn't want to.
And to my luck today was the festival everyone was required to attend or you wouldn't graduate or something like that, got that info from Maki-senpai.
And the worst thing is we HAVE to wear a yukata, I've really changed... I would usually be ecstatic to be wearing something flashy and pretty but now... I am just downright gloomy.
I was looking through my closet looking for a good yukata to wear so I don't look like a deformed donkey.
As I was searching the deepest part of the closet I come across a dusty box, I pull it out and try to remove the dust only to see a piece of paper stuck to it.
Dear Y/n,
You're 15 years old right now, I know one day you're going to leave me and have your own life.
But I hope that won't be anytime soon, cause I love you...

But I also know that I might have to leave you too, it's getting worse, I wish I could tell you but I don't want to end up hurting you one day...
Well, I at least want to be there for your wedding, we did promise that when you were 8 but you just gagged at the thought of you loving some other guy besides me, of course.
But if you do get married, I want to walk you down the aisle and see you smile as I hand you over to the next man that will love you forever, because I know I will.
Anyways, you're too young to get married right now, so I bought you a yukata, not a wedding dress, that I saw while I was roaming around and it reminded me of you, your beautiful face and personality.
You should wear it when we go to another festival!
I hope you like it
Sincerely yours,
Your favorite uncle Sukuna
I quickly opened the box and saw the most beautiful yukata I've ever seen in my life.
I pull it out and scan it from up to down, it genuinely was beautiful...
As I stare at its beauty I unconsciously start crying.
Thank you Ryo-kun, I will treasure this forever...
Then I remember that I had to get ready for the festival, so I wipe my tears away and run into the bathroom, and showered as fast as I could.
I step out of the shower and carefully put on the pretty yukata that Ryo-kun got me, and did my hair into a secure bun
And to the easiest part, make-up.
When I lived with Ryo-kun I got really interested in putting on make-up since I saw all the pretty models on TV and I asked Ryo-kun to buy me my first make-up palette.

And from then on I got really good at it, once I even put make-up on Ryo-kun and it ended with lipstick and eyeshadow on everything!
I slightly giggled at the fun memories I had with Ryo-kun as I quickly applied on eyeliner and mascara.
And finally, I finished, I took a look at my reflection and lazily walked to the door.
I walked towards where Gojo-sensei told us to meet up.
Once I got there I saw everyone with pretty yukatas even Gojo-sensei.
Everyone quickly noticed me and turned their heads towards me. Everyone goes silent
Nobara was the first one to speak, "Y/N! YOU LOOK SO PRETTY!"
I hear Maki-senpai clear her throat as Nobara ignores her and continues to approach me.
"Y/n... are you sure you want to come?" Megumi asks.
I hesitantly nod my head and try to form a smile.
"Waaah! Your yukata looks so pretty, where'd you get it?!" Yuuji excitedly asked
I stay quiet for a good 3 seconds debating with myself whether or not I should tell them it was from Ryo-kun...
"It's from my uncle, Sukuna, as you may know," I signed
"Oh, sorry for asking..." Yuuji says as he slightly bows.
I wave my hands in front of me signaling that it was ok, then I notice that Toge-senpai didn't say anything.
I look around and everyone seemed to know who I was looking for, they point to one of the benches.
I look towards where they were pointing to see Toge-senpai trying to fix his outfit
WHAT. THE. ACTUAL. FAC.
I quickly compose myself a walk towards him.
He notices me coming and quickly finishes fixing up, and smiles.
"Looking pretty as always.." he remarks.
I throw on an invisible smile on my face as he grabs my hand and drags me towards the van that we were taking to get to the festival.
I follow him to the van as he turns to me and lets me inside first, like the gentleman that he is, then we took off.
Short chapter sorry!
Although hope you liked the chapter!

Journeys in the Fairworld: The Gatekeeper
Lindsey Fluger was only slightly past eighteen. There was nothing particularly special about her, save that she happened to be the right person at the right time. When Lindsey is asked to join an expedition to another world she makes the mistake of saying yes, plunging herself into a sea of perilous adventure and dark intrigue. Journeys in the Fairworld is a fantasy anthology series set in The Fairworld, a magical realm existing in parallel with our own world which is governed by a group elfin beings known only as “The Good Folk”. These mysterious entities work in secret to keep the peace between the myriad of peoples and nations which dwell in The Fairworld. Complex relationships and bitter rivalries emerge against a backdrop of constrained resources and conflicting values to produce a world of high adventure and tangled mysteries. This novel is technically already completed, and I am currently in the final stages of proofing or editing. As such, there may be a few typos and errors here and there. The final version should be about 130,000 words long, which I will be releasing in stages as I continue editing. I'd love to hear your feedback and comments! If you want to read more stories from Journeys in the Fairworld, please checkout “Journeys in the Fairworld: The Brigand of Potham”, which is also available here on Royal Road Legends. https://www.royalroadl.com/fiction/19369/journeys-in-the-fairworld-the-brigand-of-potham

WISH MOUNTAIN
I could give you a typical synopsis that you'll gloss over...or I could tell you the essence of what the story will be. Still with me? Great! Let's get to it... WISH MOUNTAIN is inspired by fairy tales and, in a way, animated Disney movies. The biggest inspiration of them all is Beauty and the Beast. Why? Because I love it and hate it at the same time. The thing I hate about the movie is how the villain, Gaston, never got a chance for redemption. The movie was all about what is on the inside that counts, right? Beast went from bad-to-good because Belle learned to love and care about him. Was Gaston not worth that same chance for redemption? Sure he was a bad person, but so bad that he couldn't also undergo the same kind of change for the better? It was this question that got me thinking... what would Gaston's redemption look like? What kind of story would that be? From this nugget an entire epic story unfolded that has both outgrown, but has never forgotten, that original inspiration. So what can you expect? In essence: something like an epic, adult-orientated Disney story, which is gloves-off when it comes to violence and character trauma. I'll be doing my best to write a story that is as close to a classic adventure fairy tale with real stakes and meaningful characters as I can. The story begins with two orphans; Amaryllis and Chicory, who are whisked away to the magical WISH MOUNTAIN, and are faced with fending for themselves all alone. This is a HUGE story that will take YEARS for me to finish. If you're ready for a journey to Wish Mountain, then Once Upon a Time begins with Chapter 1...
