Chapter 3 - A cloudy morning.

It's a cloudy morning. In the afternoon Nori will have to visit his own created character. Kurosawa Yoshito. Even though Nori is fearful to meet Yoshito. He also thinks that it's almost a blessing, to be able to meet a character you spent so much time on. Even if it was in the past. Huh? Perhaps he's still clinging to that story from long ago, or perhaps writing as a whole. In Hajime's journal Nori simply writes. "It's a cloudy morning. It'll likely stay that way all day." Nori sits down at the desk. Perhaps while it's still early he should check out the library? Nori seems rather calm despite the horrific ghosts that are everywhere. Perhaps it's simply that Nori believes that nothing is important except for the day to day or perhaps he is simply ignoring what makes him oh so anxious. Since Hajime was deemed mentally ill, it was hard for him to apply anywhere and get accepted. So currently he is unemployed. Perhaps that was true. He was likely driven mad by the ghosts around him. Even if the ghosts themselves were real. Nori takes a look at Hajime's closet. All of the clothes were plain. Even though Nori is not very sociable, Hajime was rather sociable. So it might be a pain for Nori to deal with. Considering that Hajime had friends. After all they'd become worried that Hajime's psyche had become worse if he suddenly distanced himself. What a pain. Does he really need to worry about so many people? He didn't even know them in the first place. Yes technically they were his creations but they were all side characters and never given names or a fleshed out personality. Still, he can't help but feel pressured to not worry them. It's a bit odd. Nori hasn't felt this kind of feeling in a while. Nori with many thoughts plaguing his mind walks to a library and rents out a book. He rented out "The Story of a Pet Dog" by Dazai Osamu. Reading the first half of the book, it seems like the protagonist is a bit troubled. Having to deal with a dog, which he seems to both fear and hate. Also having to care for it, as if he cared for it despite harboring much hate. Nori closed the book, even if he thought badly for the protagonist he still had an urge to read. Even though he thought so harshly of this protagonist he could understand his prospective as well. Suddenly he heard an alarm from his phone. How noisy. He picks it up and it says for him to get ready to meet Mr. Kurosawa. Perhaps Hajime set this alarm before Nori came into his body. Nori seems a bit surprised it's already so late. After all he was simply reading. He puts on a different outfit that seemed just formal enough to be fine to wear to a therapists office. Though he'd never been to one himself he assumed that he'd have to wear something formal. He walked all the way to Kurosawa's workplace, checked in and knocked on Kurosawa's door when Kurosawa opened it. Nori felt a chill of fear. This man would be the one to kill him. Yet he couldn't help but feel proud that he created such a character. For some reason Kurosawa's office is completely void of ghosts. Kurosawa says with a sweet tone, "You're finally here Kawamura-San! I was worried about your health as always. Since you haven't updated me (about your health) since I last saw you."
