Start By Becoming A Mangaka

"Please drink this tea. It is the first time that Amami has brought her friends to our house," the man said with a smile. He seemed very happy that his daughter had brought friends to their house only he felt strange when he saw the male. He was wondering whether he would become a grandfather soon.

"Thank you," everyone said at the same time and drank the tea since it wasn't polite to not drink the tea that Amami's father had prepared.

"So are you coming to play or study here? If you're alright then we can have dinner together," the man said with a very happy smile.

Yuuki put down the cup of tea on his hand on the table and said, "We're talking about a ghost."

"......."

The man's face suddenly turned scared and suddenly turned into a long sigh. "Sigh......"

"So the ghost has appeared too before?" Yuuki asked.

The man pointed at his white hair and said, "This is because of the stress that I have acc.u.mulated when seeing a ghost."

"My father is afraid of ghosts," Amami said.

"........" They weren't sure but they felt sorry for Amami's father.

"Is there a way for the ghost to go away from our school?" Shiino asked directly since it was connected to the quality of her school. She didn't want everyone in her school to be scared all the time because of the ghost.

Amami's father shook his head and said, "I am sorry. I don't know how to do it."

Shiino didn't disappoint but rather looked at Yuuki.

"Uncle, can you tell us why a ghost is always attracted to Amami-san?" Yuuki said.

The man who heard Yuuki's question nodded and said, "Yes." He turned and looked at the photo of his wife who had deceased in the past. "I am not sure why but my daughter is somewhat special. When she was four years old, she played with a ghost and that made me very scared. I am not sure why, but it might be because of my wife. In the past when my wife was alive, she could help Amami to push away the ghost from our house but when my wife died the ghost became very uncontrollable. One night, I saw a lot of ghosts in our house moving around." He shuddered and said in a scared tone, "I hate ghosts. I don't want the ghost to be near my daughter."

"Dad...." Amami looked at her father.

"Hibiki. It isn't because of those ghosts that you can't have a friend. It's better for those ghosts to not disrupt us. My hair has turned white because of the stress that I have acc.u.mulated." The man couldn't help but complain. He had been living together with a ghost and it was really stressing him out.

Amami nodded and didn't say anything since she knew that her father was really scared of a ghost.

Suzu, who heard Amami's father, nodded in excitement. She also understood the stress and pressure of a ghost living in her house.

"Then you don't need to worry anymore," Yuuki said.

"Eh?"

"What do you mean?" The man asked with a confused expression.

"Tokyo is different from your previous house since this town is protected by five big families and the church. Once a ghost or an evil spirit enters this town then they will be purified by them," Yuuki said.

The man seemed unable to believe what Yuuki had said but his eyes started to become wet. "R - Really?" His tone was very hopeful and I wanted him to hear that it was true.

Yuuki nodded and said, "Yes. Try to remember that there isn't any ghost after you have moved to this place, right?"

The man seemed to realize it and couldn't help but stand up. "Yes! Yes! Yes! There aren't any ghosts! I love the company that has transferred me here!" He was very happy and wanted to throw a party.

"I wonder what kind of stress this man has encountered," Uomi said.

Yuuki only nodded and didn't say anything.

"So there aren't any ghosts again, right?" The man wanted to confirm it once again.

"Yes." Yuuki nodded and said, "That's why I have talked with Amami-san about the ghost that appears on the school."

"Ghost at school?" The man seemed surprised. He thought for a while and asked, "Who are you?"

"I am someone from an organization," Yuuki said. He was too lazy to explain a lot of things to this man.

Shiino, Aria, and Suzu seemed surprised when they knew that Yuuki might be related to a secret organization.

"If the ghost that appears in the school isn't going to be away then the organization might purify them," Yuuki said.

"That's good," the man said with a nod.

"No! I don't want that to happen!" Amami said.

"Hibiki," the man said while looking at her daughter.

"Then, you need to tell them that they can't live in this town. It's better to stay away from this town and better to come back to your previous home," Yuuki said.

Amami thought for a while but she knew that it was the only solution. She nodded and said, "I'll talk to them."

"That's good." Yuuki nodded and said, "I think that is the best way for you and your friend. You can see them when you're on a break and you can even have a normal friend when there isn't any ghost around you."

"N - Normal friend?" Amami seemed surprised. She suddenly thought of Yui who had greeted her before.

"Then, before it gets late, we'll go back now," Yuuki said.

"You're not staying for a party?" The man asked.

"Party?"

"Yeah! Party for a ghost to not appear around me again!" The man seemed very happy.

"......"

"Another time," Yuuki said.

"Then, we will go back first."

"Goodbye," the man said with an excited face. He looked at his daughter who seemed sad but he only shook his head. He thought that it was better for those ghosts to disappear and let his daughter live a normal life. "Hibiki...."

Amami looked at her father and nodded. "I know." She was sad but she knew that it was impossible for them to live here. She thought that it was better for them to go back rather being exorcised. She nodded and would do it tomorrow.
