Chapter 1 | Pursuing a Dream | Remake our Life!


Part 5

    Two months ago.

    I was on a pedestrian bridge in Nishi-Shinjuku.

    In front of me was a woman who was about to throw herself.

    There was no time to hesitate. I reached out with my hand and started running.

"Whoaaaa, stop!"

    Screaming, I rushed to the woman in front of me. It must have looked awkward as hell, because I had no time to think about it.

"Eh, eeh?"

    When I was about three meters away, she noticed me. I jumped as hard as I could and rolled on the floor with her in my arms.

    I tried not to let her fall straight to the floor, so I flipped her over and jumped in so that I was underneath her. My back was hurting a lot because of it.

"W-Who are you! Hey, what are you doing...!"

    From the way she was talking, it seemed that there was no damage to her body.

"I don't know what happened to you, but you can't just jump! I'm also depressed because I don't have a job, but I'm not thinking to die..."

    I somehow ended up talking about myself, but I thought I chose the right words.

    Yes, I don't know what kind of situation she was in, but I had lost my job and hadn't been able to find one, so I was more on the side of help.

    That's why, I thought, the words "don't die" should be well understood.

"……I see"

    A big sigh.

"You thought I was trying to commit suicide, so you tried to stop me."

"Y-Yes, that's why I had to stop... Eh?"

    I finally noticed it here.

    The woman was strangely calm and composed, and she spoke calmly.

    Neither looked like the person who was about to commit suicide.

“……… Isn’t that so?”

"Unfortunately, it isn’t."

    With a sigh of astonishment,

"Can you let me?"

    I heard a relatively angry voice in my ear.

"Yes…… "

    I instantly opened my arms and legs as fast as I could, like a crane game machine.
