The flesh jammed in my mouth, tears started to fall. The flavors were just right, all coming into place somehow. "Just swallow it, there's no need to worry anymore. The voice in the back of my head taunted me ferociously.

"No, I won't give in to this temptation"

As the girl loosened her grip, I bolted to the nearest corner, I placed my fist into my stomach and punched it hard. Which in turn caused me to vomit my first edible meal in the week.

"I-I cant....." I said between coughing and wheezing "eat.. this..I don't want to become a monster!"

Something snapped

As the words came out I charged at the young girl and in return for what happened earlier, I strangled her neck with both my hands and pushed her against the metal heater her feet dangling 10 centimeters above.

"I'm not like you monsters!" Spit started to once leave my hungry mouth again. My mind was clouded with frustration, anger and especially fear. "I'm human!" This made the girl widen her shown eye a bit.

I looked to the dirty ground still holding her neck with little force, I mumbled to my myself still having a hard time to breath.

"Everything has turned like hell ever since that day happened"
The feelings I've concealed to that day are now going all out.

"Hmp, everything has been like hell?, ha! Don't make me laugh," she said with a smirk.

"So, does this mean since the day I was born, my life was is completely f*cked up?!" Her gaze had changed and her cold piercing eyes stabbed me. As she did that I loosened my grip and that was when she balled her right hand into a fist and punched me hard in the cheek.

"Gah!" Was all I could say as I tasted something metallic in my mouth, slowly backed away, wincing from the pain. I feel like lost a tooth there, tenderly I touched the swollen part which would be now a huge bruise by tomorrow.

She just punched me. I can feel my right eye burn intensely. She brushed her left shoulder. And stared at me with those menacingly cold purple iris.

A quick silence appeared...still staring at me.

"Well I'll tell you something good, Starvation for any ghoul will feel utter hell and in your case this will be from two days from now try being a human and well see what happens" She shows her bloody red iris and black as the night sclera at me. "Half ghoul and half human there's no place for you!" I was prepared to fight as I clenched both my fists.

"That's enough you two" A old man possibly in his fifties had grey hair and wore a uniform from a coffee shop appeared, both of his eyes were closed and his hands were folded back . "Let's bring her in with us " he said after turning around.

"But Sir she's a half ghoul an-"

"Touka, its our policy in Anteiku to help fellow ghouls" The man cut her off before she could protest anything else. He seemed to be the boss so took heed in his command, She clenched her fists and looked to the ground. While I on the other hand he stayed quite and I followed them to the cafe.

After the ordeal somehow had ended, I was now at a café known for it best coffee; Anteiku. I was seated next to the counter the 'Manager' was making coffee, on the left corner stood Touka her gaze darted on different places from time to time. I can't believe this all happened in a week. My thoughts were running 50km per second asking questions like...

How can I be a ghoul?

What could I do?

How am I suppose to live like thi-

"Here have a drink" I was interrupted from my train of thought when a dainty cup with black steaming liquid was set in front of me. I my eyes goggled at the sight. "You don't like it?" His voice was deep yet had concern.

Taking the small white cup with both my shaky pale hands, I asked my self. Will something bad happen this time? Shoving my uneasiness away and closing my eyes I gulped the Black liquid, I was hoping it to be unpleasant but it turns out, its actually pretty good.

"How was it?" He asked me with a smile.
"I-Its delicious sir " I shortly replied while looking at the now empty cup. "What is this?"

"Its regular coffee, this is the only thing that connects us ghouls to humans, it as if we can like be humans for a short time, but..this cannot satisfy our hunger alone" said he, as if he was lecturing a child. He moved away to the counter and sat next to me on the other side.

"Here take this" he reached for his apron's pocket and pulled out a neatly folded brown paper package and placed it to the wooden counter.

"Wha?" Touka gasped at what she saw. I don't know if that was surprising or not.

"If you ever need more come to Anteiku and we will help you"
The manager smiled at me while I was silent once again deep in my thoughts.

This seems

So surreal to me.

Hours passed once more, I made my way home with few scratches, I was sitting in my bed, my stomach was ever so quietly grumbling. My short legs jerked uncontrollably as sticky sweat tricked down my brows to my neck. I clasped my hands together to stop the odd temptation.

Still eyeing the package that was on the coffee table.

"Eat it"

"Why don't you eat it?"

What was that? Was I hearing voices, again?

"Yuna-chan eat this don't you want it?". A girl with long violet hair came walking in my room. Which surprised me, I loved alone for Hell's sake, how can this be?

"I-I can't" I stammered at what was she was saying this was insanely creepy. "Eating this is taboo for h-humans..."

"Eh? Your not a human anymore so why don't you just eat ? You won't have to worry any more". She's in my bed now and she was straddling me, her cold hands touching my left shoulder and arms.

I bolted up and snatched the package taking in deep gulp you could probably hear it a feet away. Because I was so hungry, sweat dripped to my temples. Slowly opening the brown, paper package revealing the piece if human flesh, I could see it know; the aromatic scent of humans meat was in my grasp.

"Just a little and I'll eat thi-"

I was caught off guard, from my desire, when the I heard loud knocking on my door, Glancing at the wall clock

"Who could be here at this hour? Its freaking two in the morning!" As I questioned myself while hiding the meat in my drawer and locking it and pocketed the key in my jacket.

The booming knocks continued to drag on.

"Coming!"I yelled, my eyes caught sight of my appearance through a life sized mirror. I looked horrible dried blood was still in my clothes and my cheek was swelling it didn't heal fast enough so it looked like I was sucker punched by an iron.

The knocking in my door became louder. The person behind it must be very frustrated by now.

"Think Yuna, what should you do...?" a light bulb clicked to life.

Taking of my clothes off leaving with my bra and undies and grabbing a towel and bathrobe splattering some water in my face and hair I immediately went to the door, which the person behind it was still knocking furiously. I took I deep breath and calmed my senses.

This had to be a good excuse, hope this some one believes me.
With an annoyed look and tone I quickly opened the door.

"What is your problem?! I was in my bathtub and some lunatic person goes knocking and on my door and so I slipped and this happened". gesturing my bruised cheek " Who the hell in the right mind would....." I trailed off.

My blue eyes widen as realization dawn on me this was not a lunatic who I was yelling at, it was.

"Kaneki" I slowly said and cursed under my breath.

"Erm..." He was looking away his left hand blocked his vision into the side and staring somewhere else. The tips of his ears were tickled pink "Is this a bad time?"

"Wha?" I started to ask.

"Um....look down Yuna-chan" still looking somewhere else.
Slowly I looked down and........"Oh god.."

My towel failed to do its job as it was loosely slipping showing my black lace bra and cleavage.

Total awkward silence enveloped us. As Kaneki and I turn fifty shades of red.

What the hell is going on?!
