《Cartilage Of Life》Chapter 3: Alicia’s Room
Advertisement
*Aria’s POV*
Brother and I were eating our food on the far left corner of the cafeteria, it was hard for me to eat with one hand nonetheless this isn’t the time for me to be weak or to be a coward
After this meal I will be separated from big brother to do a mission which he has entrusted on to me, but how will I go about on getting information from her?
Alicia-san seems very scary even though she was cheerful when we first met her I had a feeling she was a scary wicked woman
I glanced at big brother who was slowly eating his food, how could he be so calm I wonder? I wish I was calm like him maybe one day when I grow up I’ll be like him
With every bite that I take the time towards our departure gets closer, it’s hard to think about something to convince her to tell me stuff
I’ll just have to go along with what she says and if worst comes to worst big brother will come and save me just like when he saved me from those bullies in kindergarten!
Big brother lowered his spoon to the side of his plate, looking at me he casted a gentle smile my way
“It will be okay Aria trust me…”
I nodded there’s nothing else for me to say
Up until now I’ve been trying to control my breathing this hand of mine is it the result of this breathing?
I don’t know and I shouldn’t think of useless things for now
On my right shoulder I felt a gentle touch
“Ari-a-chan~”
Big brother looks up towards the voice behind me, he looks back down at me
“What is this what is this? Is this some kind of mental telepathy between brothers~?”

I stood up from the chair ever so gently and turn around
“Alicia-san…..Please take care of me”
Alicia-san smiles and grab’s both of my cheeks
“I-will Ahhhh! Yutou, Aria is so cute fufu Japanese people are so cute!”
She turns me around and hugs me from my back
“Hehe can I keep him please please~”
Brother flashed her a wry smile and a small awkward chuckle
“Haha I need my brother he is the most precious thing to me”
Alicia smiled and said
“Ho”
My heart skipped a beat, what is this feeling I can’t explain it
“Alright Yutou-kun I’ll be going with Aria-chan now bye bye!”
Alicia-san takes my hand and pulls me alongside her while she walks in a cheerful tip toe like manner
I look back at my brother but she was walking too fast, all I saw was someone who had their arm around my brother’s shoulder
“So what do you think of my room Aria-chan”
When we entered her room I was surprised to be welcomed by such colors and furniture, her room was huge, she had stuffed todays and pink-ish red items all around her room
“Hmmm? Oh you don’t know well every Patient in here has a room specially built for them, each room reflects the person’s personality and desires be it twisted or profound, say Aria-chan how does your room look like?”
“i-i-ts b-b-black and s-s-s-simple!”
“Black and simple? Eh! Do you and your brother have a dull personality come on that’s not fun!”
I laughed awkwardly
“So Aria-chan what do you do for fun? I have a lot of toys here for you to play~”
“i-i-I like t-t-to d-d-draw!”
Alicia-chan moves towards her bed and grabs from paper from the bed side table
“Aria-chan here is something I don’t want you to tell your brother, in every cabinet or bed side table is something similar to a magic hat so if you want something just imagine it and it will be created here that simple”

I was amazed by what she told me but I couldn’t let her get to me either I have to focus on what my brother told me to do
“Alicia-san-“
“No”
“Eh!”
“I’m not Alicia-SAN I am Alicia-Nee sa”
“b-b-b-b-ut”
“Say it~ I won’t reply to you~”
“A-a-a-alicia……Nee san….”
Alicia-san holds her own waist wrapping herself around with her own body, she lets out a small deep sigh
“I like it~”
I was taken back by Alicia-san’s reaction that I stood there silent for a few minutes until she decided to break the silence
“So what did you want to ask Aria-chan?”
Ok now is my chance I have to ask her
“Where are we?”
“Ah that question well it’s a simple question with a simple answer you and I and your brother are dea-“
