"That voice was probably from the friend I wanted to find." I say without any reaction at all. And then,

"Is that so?" she says in surprised.

Yes, this is indeed a surprising development. Not for you guys, you read the chapter I wasn't in and you knew he was going to be here when you heard that we have come to a clinic as well. But for me, it was a surprise.

Anyway, now, what should we do?

Should we help the two brothers with whatever it is they want help with?

Should we proceed to meet up with Danny?

Man, I feel like the protagonist of one of those visual novels, making the choice that will affect the story and all. Hah! It's a good new experience to add to my protagonist journal and show it later to those characters born for joining my peanut gallery, impress them with this, and finally make them join my peanut gallery. Wait! Did I just come up with that whole plan on the fly? Hah! I'm awesome.

"Okay then, you go and meet-up with your friend and I go help those two." She says with a smile.

My Visual Novel Protagonist Rights just got revoked. Hah! I'm still awesome. There's something coming out of my eyes, some sort of liquid. I'm awesome. It flows down my cheek. I'm awesome. It then drops off from my jaw line. G.o.dd.a.m.n it all!

"I'M AWESOME!!!" I shout at the top my voice.

*****

"I see." The doctor, who looks after the clinic we were in, says with a serious face. Do you remember one of those characters whose whole purpose in life is to nod to other characters? Yeah, this guy looks to be of the same breed.

"I can forgive you for the commotion you caused but," he pauses and looks at me on his right, "You'll need to teach this guy some manners."

He says while pointing at me. Now I of course can't let a comment like that go without doing anything. And so I say,

"Please forgive me, doctor-san." I press my head against the stool the doctor uses for making his patients sit and continue, "I will never shout something like that again. I'll behave. So, please let me go!"

Listen, I'm not a p.u.s.s.y. This guy has two radishes against an onion like me, standing there with rods in their hand, ready to kick some serious a.s.s. I can't … I don't …. I am not a p.u.s.s.y, alright!? Shut up! Moving on,

"Doctor," the woman who was brought here with me because she was there with me says, "While I really doubt he'd change a bit, could you please still forgive him."

b.i.t.c.h! Do you want me to die!? Was that first remark necessary!? Are you a trying to play tsundere again, trying to act rude to the guy you like? Not that there should be any reason for Adonia to actually like, but that logic gets nullified by the fact that I'm the protagonist.

"Hah!" the doctor sighs and touches his moustache, something I a.s.sume would be his habit, "Fine then, just go and never appear in front of me again."

Stop acting like a bada.s.s, you a.s.s!

"Yes, I'll make sure he doesn't appear in front of us ever again." Adonia says with her head bowed and everything.

Wait! Us? She said 'us', right? What does that mean? Is she actually angry at me for some reason? I mean, that happens with tsunderes but we have already established the author is incapable of writing one.

"Yes, you should do that." The doctor says. And then suddenly,

"Hey, doctor! Are you going to really leave me like this?" comes the voice, the voice that lead me to shouting and the one that is the indirect cause for me being here. "Come back here and fix me up!"

Fix him up? What the h.e.l.l was this doctor doing with Danny!? That's disgusting. I didn't know he swung that way. I mean, I am not against it, but I had hoped he isn't so shameless in front of our readers, regardless of whichever way he swung.

"Yes, yes! Forgive me, sir!" the doctor replies in a meek voice. That kind of voice for Danny and,

"Now get out of here!" That kinda voice for me? What's wrong with this doctor? I mean, just look at me, I am the personification of good looks. The author asked Google-san, "What's the best face shape for men?" "What's the best eyes shape for men?" and so on in order to create me. He didn't even bother visualizing a bit before mas.h.i.+ng everything together to create the absolute beauty that is I.

Eff you, doctor's taste, for giving Danny more value than me! And also eff you, author-san, for not thinking as hard about my appearance as you did for Kais and Ethan!

Anyway, the doctor goes and removes the curtains covering Danny as he lies on the bed, half-naked. Seriously, I was making gay jokes before; I am actually starting to get worried now. There are also marks on Danny's body that suggests he has been hit by something a multiple times. Knowing how much of a m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.t he is, that is just further proof of my thoughts being right. I am not at all against LGBT but if he is gay, why did used to get so frustrated on me when his 'girlfriends' left him for me?

"Ah, Irium, how are you here!?" he asks in a surprised voice.

Was that a conspiracy? Was Danny plotting against me? Wait! Why 'was', he could still be plotting against me. He could still be carefully planning his every move in order to destroy me.

"And when did you come here!" he asks further.

Who else is in on this? Is Dues also his ally in all this? Does that mean bringing me to this time-period was part of the plan? Was he trying to isolate me and kill me in a way where my body can't be found? Was that it?

"Oh, and there's a beautiful lady with you too …" as Adonia is about to thank for his compliment, he flips out and says, "Wait a minute! Is that Roswaisa!?"

That grabs my attention and look back at them to see Danny's surprise, at seeing Adonia, and everyone else's surprise, at seeing his reaction. Seeing that,

"Nah! I was being paranoid! He's Danny after all!"

All my suspicions wash away and I turn back to a saint! Oh so holy! Oh so memer!
