Chapter One: A new arrival
----------------------------------------------
My name? My name is unimportant right now. You shall address me by Kikei until I see fit.
---
I died once... It was quite interesting. Actually, much more terrifying.
No, no. That's a terrible start. Let me try again. From the beginning of this whole thing.
---
"Raito, you have a visitor." Mr. Yagami called to his son.
"Um... Yagami-sama." Kekei pleaded for the uptienth time. "I'm not here to see Raito-sama." But, like the other times, her voice was much too quiet. His father must have assumed I came for Raito because... he has many femal visitors, possibly? Yes, that makes sense.
Nonetheless, a boy walked down the stairs to greet her. His expression was cold and annoyed. "Hello."
She immediately bent into a deep bow. "Hello, Yagami Raito-sama." She said very quietly, her voice shaking.
Raito's eyes narrowed. "What are you here for?"
She shrunk back in fear, her eyes were wide and darting, looking anywhere but into the eyes of this... this thing. No, that is unpolite. He might just be serious. Right? Right. I need to get over my fear of people. She sighed. "Uhm... yes." Her voice was calmer now, but still quiet. "My name is Yashimoto Kekei."
Mr. Yagami smiled at her. "Ah, yes, the girl from Osaka. I've been expecting you."
Kekei bowed once again. "Thank you, Yagami-sama."
"Why did you request my pressence?" Raito asked coldly.
Once again, Kekei bowed. "I am sorry for disturbing you, Ratio-sama. Elder Yagami-sama, I tried to tell you that I wasn't here to see Raito-sama, but my voice must have been too quiet. I'm sorry." She felt like breaking down and crying right then. She knew she was a burden. However, that might worry them. She musn't do that.
Raito grunted and went back into his room.
"I'm sorry I-... are you alright, Kekei?" Mr. Yagami asked. She hasn't lifted her head yet. And, she's shaking like a leaf.
Kekei took a deep breath and looked at the man. Then, she did what she does best, she smiled at him. Her smile was so genuine, none had yet to figure out it was faked. She dare not speak, her trembling voice would give away her feelings, so she just nodded and kept smiling.
Like always...
---
"Just keep smiling." A kind voice told a young Kekei. "One day, you'll convince even yourself that you're truly happy."
Kekei nodded and smiled through her tears.
The owner of the vioce turned to leave, but looked at her again. "And... please refrain from hurting yourself."
Her smile faltered. "I... I can't... make any promises."
The speaker sighed. "Yes, of course. I suppose that's good enough, then. Goodbye."
"Goodbye..."
---
"Well, no sense in you standing outside all day." Mr. Yagami said happily, snapping Kekei back into reality. He motioned her inside and she followed him into a small dining room, removing her shoes first, of course. "So, I assume you want to know which room you will stay in?" He asked.
"Uhm... if it's alright. Thank you, Yagami-sama." Kekei replied, quiet as ever and avoiding eye-contact. 'She's staying there?' You are asking. Well, the Yagami family decided to take part in a program that houses students while they attend Toudou(Did I get that right?) college. Unfortunately for the Yagami family, they were in charge of Kekei, the girl with low self-esteem and severe social anxiety.
Mr. Yagami smiled and nodded, motioning her to follow him up the stairs. She continued to follow him down a long hallway until they reached an oak door, third to the left.

Thank you very much for reading! Don't worry, this intrigues me much more than my Naruto fics, it will be updated more often. Much easier to write about a more realistic world, 'ya know?
