Chapter 5: #5 - The Main Character, Well, A Main Character
#5
The next day, I'm sitting in the carriage and my mind gets increasely nervous.
Why? You might ask.
Because I'm gonna meet a main character!
You know, I was barely 19 when I died, in the flower of youth, I passed time by watching anime, hanging around with my friends, playing games, playing sports...
You know, a bit of everything.
And so, how would you react if you went to meet a main character, even more, Jonathan Joestar, The pinnacle of chivalry or honor, or whaever he was on about, the point is, It's extremely nerve wracking.
Oh! The carriage stopped.
Now let me be cool for a moment.
I throw my suitcase outside the door, landing it perfectly straight.
I jump, landing to it's left, I recover my bearing and I make a show of slowly moving my head counterclock wise, but suddenly, I stop moving it and I tilt it lightly to the right, looking straight at the Young boy to my right.
He mumbles "Who could that be...?"
But his eyes gain clarity and he says "Oh!, You must be the son of Dario, Right?"
Now, I'm going to be a bit bold and say "And you must be Jonathan Joestar"
"Yes, Everyone calls me Jojo, though... Nice to meet you!"
Before I could think about my next words a dog comes over to the both of us, focusing on Jonathan.
"Danny!" He looks at the dog with Joy.
"This is danny", He continues, "He's a clever hunting dog, but Don't worry, He won't bite"
I get closer to the dog, and pet it.
It Joyfully squirms under my touch.
"See, I knew you guys will be fast friends."
And this is how you make friends.
Before I could answer to him, I'm interrupted by an middle aged man.
I instantly recognize him.
George Joestar.

Laying on the bed of my room, I look back a bit.
Thankfully, He didn't knew about Dio, weird, but I'm not gonna question it.
But I really don't know what to say or do now.
It still feels weird, Just 2 weeks ago I was stealing fruits to survive, and now I'm onwards a good future.
I wouldn't call it bad, i wouldn't say overwhelming either, It's just...
I made peace?
Yeah, I guess you could call it that.
I made peace with the fact that I was an orphan, its mother being one of the multiple prostitutes of the era, and I had no future apart from following the guidance of the tab.
And that peace was broken by the apperance of a Blonde guy.
And talking about peace, I still couldn't make it with the fact that I'm in a fictional world.
I already knew it, since the tab said "Figure what world are you in"
But still, Its a very different thing knowing and experiencing.
And Dio was still just a boy (Actually, he was older than me)
But seeing George made me think that people actually live their lives here.
I didn't really thought about since the adults that I knew were all Drunkards, or the guy I stole fruits from, or the guy I killed my first day in here.
Y'know, Not people that you should look up to.
But George, a refined gentleman, a succesfull man, with a loving son (Two now)
It made me think that maybe my resolve is a bit weak, my resolve to live.
Maybe i was seeing it all as a fictional world still, that I could just grab the good things and let the people figure the rest by themselves.
I don't really know now.
Is this an existencial crisis?
Maybe...
Whatever, I'll just have to do my best.
For My Brother, For My Father, And For myself
And I guess for My Brother's Descendants
Yeah, that sounds right
