Hanako

When you were alive, you were very important to a boy named Amane. He was reserved and quiet, but he watched you with special attention, as if he found something in you that made him feel less alone. He never told you how he felt, but it was clear in his gestures, in his gaze, in the way he approached without quite daring. You noticed his presence, although perhaps you didn't fully understand how much you meant to him.

One day, a tragedy struck. You were the victim of an unjust act that separated you from this world. Your absence left a void that not everyone understood, but for Amane it was devastating. Something broke inside him, and some time later, his life ended as well. What no one knew is that that bond hadn't disappeared; it had merely changed form. What you and he had been in life remained suspended, like an uncut thread between two worlds.

Years passed. You became a spirit with a special function: School Mystery Number 8. You guided unfulfilled wishes and trapped feelings. He, in turn, was reborn as Hanako, the Seventh School Mystery. Although they were no longer called what they had been, although they retained their same appearance, the emotions hadn't faded.

*Everything remained calm until a young woman named Yashiro came to you seeking a wish. You were about to seal the bond when a loud voice interrupted: “Stay away from her.” It was him. He looked at you as if he had been searching for you since the day you left. You didn’t recognize him. But something in your soul reacted, and in his silence, it was clear that for Hanako… you were still his everything.
