Translation - Act I

It is amazing how the human brain has the power to think in the worst possible situations, as we evolve we become more and more rational and evolving beings, but this only makes you someone more cautious as possible.

What I may be doing is predicting a conclusion... I haven't drawn enough facts to simply say that the person who killed Mirai Saiaku was Sukya, but that's not strange.

It was 2:20 in the morning and yes, I couldn't sleep, I was lying in my room while Sukya slept on a futon beside my bed, I had to sleep because I had to work tomorrow.

Think with me and help me put the facts together, which are:

Sukya arrived at 5:20 in the morning here at the university and by the looks of it went straight to my housing.Obviously that would never happen because the housing is simply a little far from the university, the campus is in the central part of the school, the campus is a big and extensive park where students can gather to study and also to have fun, most of them use it for experiments and studies, and this campus is in the middle of the school where we have the 3 big areas, the areas are big buildings and each one is divided with its study areas, so I present it to you:

Area 1: A large building, located in the middle of the campus, which has several classrooms inside, 9 workshop rooms, 6 computer rooms that are only open at night or for afternoon classes, and 3 infirmaries, is entirely decorated in the school's main colors which are Brown, grayish beige, matte black, ice white and blue details, this area is designated for Technological Studies.

Area 2: Another large building, located to the left of the campus, which has several classrooms inside, 9 art rooms, 6 presentation rooms and 3 wards, with the same colors as the school, this area is designated for Social Studies and is also where I study.

Area 3: The last building is on the right after the campus and has 9 Calculation rooms, 6 rooms for physics experiments and 3 Infirmary rooms, which is designated for the Exact classes.

All of these are connected by a bridge with supports and with glass overlooking the campus and the street.

In addition to the campus being open 24 hours, the areas are completely enclosed and students are not allowed to enter after midnight.

Anyway, let's now get to the victim:

Mirai Saiaku - 20 years old, a young prodigy, studied in the same class as me, was not much of a social person and much less one to make fun of my face.

My only moments of contact with her were only 2, the first contact I had with her was because of a test at the beginning of the year.

                                                                       * March 2017 *

It was an end of the month exam that was being taken in the morning because the class schedules had not been stipulated, and I was a little sleepy, I had started waking up at 5:20 a.m. and was not very used to it, during the course of the class I would get sleepy and slow, there were moments that I would close my eyes and sleep a little.

"Hey... Hikari..." a sweet voice spoke in a low, whispering tone, it was such a pleasant voice to hear.

"I know how hard you work...here you go" in that same tone, with a kind and loving smile on her face she handed me a 300 ml bottle of Energetic.

That day I accepted and got 8.7 on the test, at the end I thanked her and tried to pay her back, to return the favor, and she said:

"No need, I did it because I wanted to and that's all..." in the same tone... with the same smile... with the same look she said directly to me.

Even though I did it without wanting anything in return, I wanted to give back to her, so that day at least I called her to have lunch with me, and surprisingly she said:

"Ih-...I'd love to" in that same cute tone and a little embarrassed

It was 12:30 and I was sitting on campus next to her and that conversation that flowed like a river was so good. We talked about the future, values, feelings, and laughed about some life situations that had occurred.

I looked up and saw the sun streaming through the leaves of the tree where we were sitting, the day was a little hot, but still, it was nice, I wished this moment would never end.

After we finished lunch, we said goodbye and she thanked us for the food and at that moment we formed a small friendship and after 2 months of friendship until one day I went to say hello to her as I always did:

After we finished lunch, we said goodbye and she thanked us for the food and at that moment we formed a small friendship and after 2 months of friendship until one day I went to say hello to her as I always did:

"Good evening Mirai..."

. . .

Without looking me in the face, looking straight ahead with a cold stare, she just ignored me and walked away, I didn't understand why she had done that, I didn't understand why she was so cold, I just thought how that moment? had hurt me.

After the class I went straight home, I was crying and didn't understand why I was crying.

The amazing thing about it all is how incredible human beings are in terms of importance, one night I cried, another night I was sad, another night I just felt a slight emotional fatigue, and another night I didn't care anymore, I really think all that was just momentary.

I don't know why but she never spoke to me again. 

                                                                            *Gift*

Well... my history with Mirai doesn't matter much, and I can't jump to conclusions against Sukya, but she is still a suspect.

"Aahh how I love the shower here in the villa" Sukya speaks opening the bathroom door, tone a little Relieved.

"Oh yes yes" I speak in a somewhat Neutral tone as I stand in the kitchen cutting vegetables for Dinner.

"You knew that girl...Mirai Saiaku?" She says as she dries her hair in the living room.

"Yes yes yes, she was in our class" in the same tone I continue cutting the vegetables until they are in small blocks.

"She seemed like a nice girl, I heard some of her classmates talking about her" Sukya speaks as she continued drying her hair.

"Yes yes, she was a young and somewhat introverted girl who loved books and animals" he continued cutting the vegetables quickly and accurately as the cubes got even smaller.

"She was your friend?..." Says Sukya as she finished drying her hair, after finishing her speech I unintentionally cut the tip of my finger while cutting the vegetables.

"Damn...no no...she wasn't my friend" I speak in a slightly wistful tone.

"Ah... okay, sorry if I touched on any subject I shouldn't" says Sukya as she stood up and walked towards her room.

"Don't worry..." I speak and turn my head looking at Sukya as she turns her head at the same time, both looking at each other, I give a smile and say

"I have no friends here at this school...but now I have you" I speak in a cheerful and enthusiastic tone with a big smile on my face.

"It... I... also consider you as a friend" Sukya turns her head quickly and walks a little faster to the room.

"Wait...aren't you going to dinner?"

"NO... eh... I'm sleepy... good night" Sukya speaks in a loud and slightly stuttering tone and as she finishes, she slams the bedroom door and throws herself on her Futon.

After I slam the bedroom door, I get a little flushed and embarrassed and my finger hurts, but I still put aside the pain to think about something else.

"AAAAAH WHY DID YOU SAY THAT?"

"SHE'S A SUSPECT.... AND WHY ALL THIS EXCITEMENT AND SHAME?"

"STOP BEING DUMB HIKARI"

While I was thinking so much about what I said and my concern I didn't even notice how just as the people around me could so much hate me...I had those that could love me.

"AAAAHH HIKARI YOU IDIOT WHY DID YOU SAY THAT?"

"AND YOU TOO SUKYA.... WHY ALL THIS SHAME"

"STOP BEING DUMB SUKYA"

I didn't realize it, but that was the beginning of the translation of my little world.
