Chapter Text
Dazai sighed again hating herself and oda for sucessly being able convince her to fly for over 7 hours to get to some small village near the ocean because of her grandma death. Not that dazai had anything against her now dead grandma no, even not having many happy memories of her own childhood dazai always remembers how when she was little the exitement was always big when it came to visit her grandma especially when she lived so close to the ocean, dazai loved to imagine strange sea creatures and mermaids after all she was a lonely child who even a a creature from the ocean would be a good company.
Coming to reality again dazai looked to the window the view from the plane doesn't look special after more than 6 hour of looking at it. Sure at begining it was a bit interisting since it was Dazai first plane travel for a good while now, and don't get it wrong Dazai is glad that she paid more for the window seat but everything strated to be boring after a while she has alredy played on her switch but the batery died after 3 hours of the travel, she read for another 2 and sleep for maybe 1 but it was just too monote that's why dazai ended looking at the window thinking about everything and anything. One of those many things begin why did her grandma left her house to Dazai, after all even if Dazai dares to say that her grandmother was the only person who she could call family not only just because of blood but because she cared it still made no sense in her mind why left her the house.
The reason being because Dazai after her 15 birthday she moved away with her parent's so her relationship with her grandmother got a bit strained even if they both send letter's to eachoter with little trinkects, dazai giving small photos and random keychains that she tougth her grandma would like and her grandma sended shells she found on the beach and some times things she made of yarn especially made to Dazai. But their relasonship wasn't the same and with Dazai not being able to visit because her parent's were stricly against it because according to them grandma was crazy and a terrible influence. So close to when Dazai was 17 they made sure that Dazai cuted all contact for 'her own good' so everything that came for her grandma hide with no exception and fast too, if we counted the years it would be 5 years of no conctact, that probably made her grandma think she hate her but she still left her, her home,some belogins, and some money Dazai just couldn't help but start to think "why? Why did she left me anything at all" but dazai just shoke her head knoing that no matter how much she tried to understand she wouldn't.
With all her tougths two hour and a half passed in a blink of a eye. Dazai only got out of her mind when the warning made by the flight attend announced that the plane would strat landing.
Before dazai knew she got out of the plane got her baggage and was in taxi getting to her grandma house the driver after ten minutes of driving cleared his troath and said "Are you visiting somone?" Dazai looked up from the window "something like that yes how did you know?" The driver gave a small laugh "well everytime somone new comes here 87% of time is because they are visiting somone so who is the person you are visiting?" Then a silence came until the driver akwardly said "or maybe not visiting but saying goodbye? We do also have many people coming here because of the death of a member of their family that lived here" dazai answered "yes I'm here to say goodbye well and maybe stay here for a bit." The driver with a sympacty voice said "well I'm sorry for your lose what was her name? Oh my god I forgot to say my name I didn't say my name and I was alredy asking this types of questions my name is Daisuke Yamada " Dazai smiled "thank you and don't worry about that her name was Yukioyo Dazai" Yamada with sudden realization said "oh so you are Osamu! Old Yukioyo spoke soo much about you your grandma was really liked by everyone here it really was unfornated the death she had"
For the rest of the travel dazai heard the nice middle age man speak mindless about everything her grandma told them about dazai and how Yukioyo was a great person and that she loved dazai very much.
After a hour on the road Yamada stoped in front a medium size house with blue walls and smiled "here we are I hope you like begin here" dazai smiles back "thank you for the ride and telling me stories of my grandma" dazai gets out and takes her wallet to pay Yamada but he stops her "no its on the house consider it a last present for Yukioyo" dazai smiled and thanked him and after taking the baggage she saw the car slowly dissapearing from her sigth.
Dazai then took a deep breath and strated walking to the house. When entering dazai looked around and noticed nothing changed since the last time she entered here too say goodbye at 15 when she was close to the day she was gonna move away, still had the same ocean shells dazai got for her when she was litlle and went to the beach at the front of the house and brougth the prettiest one to her grandma who always took care of them and puted them kn visible places, books, rolls of warn in the table and the old blankets dazai loved.
When Dazai got to the guest bedroom she dropped her baggage anywhere and feel into the bed with a tired sound. Looks like the plane travel finally is getting to dazai but dazai simply can't sleep she is thinking about what Yamada told her, the cause of death of her grandma was drowning dazai herself alredy found it strange since she remember her grandma as a great swimmer even if she hated the ocean, but what really set dazai off was Yamada saiying that everyone was suprised she drowned because everyone knew she was great at swiming. But just after she could strat to think how could it had happen she fell asleep with a strange melody on the backroom like it was a woman singing in the beach with that melody dazai had a dreamless nigth.
