“3 billion (people) you’re the only one that I want. I apologize if you’re not the one for me…”
A certain lyrics from a song played in a track on the radio heard set as the background music as I got inside the jeepney.
A certain ordinary day, and this is how I, an ordinary guy with mundane looks starts.
Sitting at the far edge of the couch, I get some coins hidden in the pocket of my pants and cranes my hand to give my fare to the driver. Currently, I am working as an agent in a certain big company.
There aren’t much of passengers right now, though it’s already 9 o’ clock in the morning. Since there’s still space, I grabbed my phone and unlocks the screen. A certain software application I downloaded appeared and click it.
“Hmmm… where did I stopped?” I mumbled.
On the screen of my phone is an E-book entitled “The Two After School” with an illustration of two girls looking at each other. The author, HiroAyama , is the one who wrote the story and ChaosKira is the one who made the illustration.
This is one of the novels I’ve been waiting to be translated since looking from the forums on the internet. And now I bought it online from my salary. A story about Sakagami Kei, a beauty that everyone admires and the cool girl named Yukiyama Kagome, who doesn’t have an idea about love.
On her way to school, Sakagami Kei got jammed inside the wagon of the train in a morning commute. Though it’s not really a rush hour, yet the custom of the workers and other commuters to be on time to their work is a big norm.
That’s the every day life of hers as a student. However, that day isn’t something she never been expected. That happens there’s someone from the passengers is a molester.
Due to the jam-packed of the passengers inside the train, everyone’s bodies are colliding with each other. And Sakagami Kei’s one of those people. She understands fully, that it can’t be helped now.
The ride boarding to school becomes hectic due to the discomfort feeling she gets inside the train. But out of that feeling, a sudden chill rushes throughout her body.
I clicked the screen of my phone to flip for another part of the story, and took a slight glance from the crowd. The jeep’s capacity will reach its limit soon. There are passengers in different walks of life onboard inside.
Some of them chat with each other; others are browsing on their phones like I do, and the remaining ones just look afar from the window beside.
I proceed again at the screen of my phone and continue to read.
Kei’s butt felt something strange. Something she never had been felt. It’s a discomfort feeling arise; like someone’s been doing something. Due to the overcrowed of the train, she can’t turn to see the one who is gripping on her.
Each station passes, every passengers dropped by and arrived inside, continuously packing the train. The station to her school is quite 3 stations away from the platform she got in. And now, the molester still enjoys the cop feel of her butt.
Kei wants to scream, but she worries to bother everyone inside the train. Biting her lips, she just keep endured the feeling of fear and humiliation.

“I can’t let this slide, but I fear everyone might start a ruckus when I do….”
Her inner thoughts clicked through. That’s when, someone from the crowd suddenly shouts.
“Hey—”
“Take all of your belongings! Your wallets, cellphones!”
A loud scream jolts me out. All of the passengers got froze from what they heard. Inside the jeep, there are three men, wearing caps on their heads. They’re pointing a butterfly knife, and one from them holds a revolver.
“C’mon everyone! None of you dare moves, else I’ll kill you all!”
Some of the passengers whine out of fear, and each gives their possessions to the three men. They each grabbed everything and put inside of their backpacks. One of them cackled, the one who holds the revolver.
Then, our eyes met. “Hey, you there…”
I jolted out. “Huh?”
His eyes pierces me, indicating that I should give my valuable things. But heck, why would I do that? I’m not an asshole like those people.
”Hey! You won’t give—”
“Asshole.”
I interjects before he proceeds. “What did you just say?”
“I said, asshole.” I answered. Though my voice trembles, I still managed to answer.
His eyebrows fuzzed, gritting his teeth. Then, he jumped over to me and grabbed my shirt. I suddenly jolt out of fear, my body’s trembling. “Repeat what you have said to me you son of a bitch!”
I feel his wrath. His eyes pierces me like a knife. His revolver pointed on my forehead and clicked. Everyone gasped from sudden happening; I heard someone crying out of fear.
“You guys are wasted. This world would be good without you scums. You are all but a wasted sperm.”
I wasn’t with myself. All I want is to read the novel I bought from my salary. And everything I said is true. This world is unjust to everyone. We are ones working for meeting end’s meet .
And these hooligans just jumped and pillaging all of our stuffs.
What the fuck are they doing in their lives?
“Huh? You son of a bitch!”
“Go on! Pull the trigger! C’mon! You’re chickening out—”
A click heard from somewhere.
My head feels a sudden impact. I don’t know what happened, but my body slowly freeze from where I sit. Tilting my vision sideways, I saw everyone’s appalling expressions as they look at me.
What… what happened?
The man facing me still holds the revolver from his hand smirks menacingly. My surroundings become cacophonous. “Get his things! Let’s go!” one of the men shouts. I still holding my phone on my hand right that moment. But the strength to protect it slowly wanes.
The three men jumped off the jeepney while still running. The robbers are left, and everyone started panicking.
I can still hear them faintly. I can’t feel my body. And my head hurts. So much it hurts that I slowly become numb. I feel my strength drains out. And puddle of blood drips down on my pants.
Why… what?
Why do I deserve to be like this? Am I going to die? Why…? Fucked those robbers! I wish for them to die!
No, instead of me… I wish for them to die. I want them to die in my stead! I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die!
Someone help! I don’t wanna die!
I’m afraid… I am afraid. Someone, help! I don’t want to die!
I want to scream. I want to move my lips. But all I have now are these thoughts. Slowly, my vision turns blurry. The entire onboaring passengers still panicked.
With my faintly sight, I saw lights drawing within. Clanking sound of wheels faintly heard from the distance. Two people in white uniform runs side by side.
My feelings deteriorates. Slowly, I feel difficulty to start breathing.
My body turns numb. I can’t feel anything. Am I going to die?
Why?
Becauise I stand to my ground? Are those assholes going to pay for what they did to me? If so… then so be it.
My sight becomes dim. But my hearing still cacophonously heard some voices. I heard a machine, beeping beside me.
“Clear—!”
A defribelator sunked to my chest.
Yet, all I feel is null. And from there, I ceased in breathing. A flat line sound in the heart monitor echoed.
All of a sudden, I was a goner from this world.
