Alternative/Zero One's
My life in the Underground (Part I)

Due to the strange ability of Euphyllia, Hisao had a kind of fever when it came to our house. Kenji can only give her first aid and rest her into the room.

"Will Hisao's brother be okay, father?" Jihan asked worriedly.

"He'll be fine. He only had a fever with a mild dizziness." Said Kenji putting the compress on Hisao's forehead who was already asleep.

"When the compress has begun to cool back into the warm water, then squeezed and put it on his forehead neatly. Do you understand Jihan?" Kenji tries to explain how to compress a fever person to Jihan.

Jihan nodded enthusiastically

"Okay, dad." Jihan said enthusiastically. Kenji walked towards me at the mouth of the door.

"Are you done with the shower?" Ask Kenji to me. I just answered him with a slow nod.

"so yeah. Replace Jihan if she's already getting sleepy. I'm gonna take a shower." Kenji.

"All right." I said. When I wanted to walk towards Hisao's bed, Kenji's right hand held my shoulder to hold me.

"You must be thinking that this is all your fault because Euphyllia got angry earlier and made her use her power to Hisao?" Ask Kenji. As always, although her flat face was always champion but her sensitivity towards others was also high and it made me a little tickled to smile thinly.

"You can always read my mind, Kenji. Like-so... " Before I finish my words Kenji completes my truncated sentence.

" "How do I solve it personally?" Didn't they? For that problem try to solve it yourself. Because it's already a personal matter. I can only give you advice." Kenji. For the first time Kenji refused to help me. "Kenji is not the God I can ask for every time I have a hard time" That's what I have in mind after hearing his explanation.

There comes a time when there are problems that I can only solve on my own. And that's it now.

"Yes, I know. There are times when I have to finish it myself. It's bad enough I'm troubling you on your trip. Sorry yes." I said try to reflect.

" Never take your hands off Euphyllia. That's my advice for your problem. The matter of his methods depends on your imagination and effort." Said Kenji who walked towards the bathroom to clean himself up.

Heh?!! SHE OBVIOUSLY HATES ME WOI!!! WANT TO DIE WHAT INVITES PEOPLE WHO HATE YOU SO MUCH TO SHAKE HANDS??!!!!! Whether it's a joke or not I don't know because Kenji's expression is always flat whether it's serious or joking. But it could be a clue, I better remember it well.

I immediately carried Jihan to the bed in the next room, more precisely my room. Due to Kenji's room division, I was placed in a single room with Jihan. I put Jihan on the bed and covered her and went back to Hisao's room.

I grabbed a chair near his bed and sat on it.

"I know you're still up." I said check on Hisao.

"Too dizzy to sleep. Makes my head ache even to the level of a low-grade fever." Hisao's sigh covered both of his eyes using his arms. Seeing her condition like this made me feel even more guilty because Euphyllia's hatred for me made Hisao exposed.

"Sorry for getting you involved." I said with regret.

"no need. I reacted like that because of the parasitic effect that was on my heart. It's not purely from myself directly. Please don't ask me to speak, every word I say makes my head hurt." Hisao said restraining his dizziness. Even though this room was dark I could see Hisao's tears dripping from enduring his headache.

It makes me angry and feel guilty at the same time. If Euphyllia really hated me for some personal reason then she should have given something that befell Hisao directed at me only. But at the same time my mentality was not strong enough to take action. That makes me weak.

...****************...

"Emiya, get up. It's 05:00 in the morning. Awake." Someone shakes my shoulders gently. From his voice it seemed to be Kenji's voice. Although it feels reluctant but I try to wake up.

"Kenji?" I said rub my eyes.

"Wake up and clean yourself up. I'll ask you out." Kenji.

"Oh... HAA-!?" before I finish my sentence that can make a scene one Kenji complex smothers me with his hands.

"Yes, dating. You heard me, right? That's why get ready soon. I'm waiting for you downstairs." Said Kenji who then left me in Hisao's room. I could only see Kenji coming out of Hisao's room with a stupid face instead of being confused.

"What kind of trance does Kenji go on a date?" I muttered in disbelief.

I quickly took a shower and braided my blonde hair. Since my clothes from Mr. Franko are dirty and unworthy to wear then I would not want to change my clothes. I tried to check the wardrobe if there is anything to wear or not. I found a long-sleeved shirt with white cuff sleeves, a thin jacket with a long tail up to the knee and a blood-red hood, long black jeans. For footwear I still use my old boots because I don't find any footwear in my closet.

After wearing everything I immediately went down I also did not forget to use a wool shawl that came from the skin of the curse beast that Kenji gave when we were on banker 69.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." I said I saw Kenji with a changed appearance. Wearing a black jacket with a long robe tail with a white striped motif, black tactical pants, and wearing shin guards and boots were still the same when we first met.

Kenji looked at me bawlingly after seeing me who had also changed appearance. I was seen as embarrassed.

"A-what's up? Do I look weird?" I said with embarrassment. My hands can't stop playing with my hair.

"No. You look different." Kenji said flatly.

YES, IT IS, FLAT FACE! MY CLOTHES ARE DIFFERENT!!!

My screams in my heart. This guy really cannot praise huh?!

"It fits you very well. You look beautiful." continued Kenji opened the door and walked out of the house.

Just when the door was closed my face flushed like a ripe tomato. WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS LIKE THAT?!! ALWAYS ATTACKING ME WHEN I AM WEAK. YOU CHEAT!!!! At least let me tease you too, my goodness...

I walked up to Kenji from behind. We entered the complex that is very familiar atmosphere. The smell of fish stinging the nose, vegetables being scattered at each stall table, the sound of people bidding the price of the thing they want to buy. Especially if it is not a market.

"Wait, did you ask me out early for a date at the market?" I'm flustered.

"It's not like that, I take you out early in the morning to the market to teach you how to buy something in the market. Dating is just my cover." Kenji said without guilt.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I screamed in my heart because I felt being played by him.
