...? What was that...? A boy...A...car...

* * *

I opened my eyes slowly. I was lying on a desk. Somehow...It feels like I've been sleeping a lot.

The classroom is...empty...

I sat up and looked out the window to my left.

...Huh...?
My eyes opened wide.

I stood up frantically, and ran towards the window, placing my hands on it.

An orange coloured sky. But it didn't look orange.

It was a vibrant blue-- no...pitch black...

My eyes started blinking uncontrollably.

"Agh!" I groaned in pain, falling to the floor as I covered my eyes. A burning sensation from my chest.

My eyes flashed repeatedly.

A summertime blue sky.

...A boy with purple hair.

...A naive little girl.

...Rain...

.........A car...?





"Can you really make something that can let me..."

..."-Time travel?!"

A sharp pain in my head. I screamed uncontrollably.

I held onto the walls for dear life.

"It's him! He made my daughter..."

..."-Like this!"

Like someone was inserting a needle into my head, I screamed.

Panting profusely, I tried easing the pain. It hurt. It hurt so much, I wanted to go to sleep. I would have preferred getting hit by...

Bam.

An uncontrollable ringing sound, pricking at my ears sharply. "Ah...!"



"Sure." a warm...sensation.

Then suddenly, it all stopped.

"Why not?" a smirk.

"Rui."

"My name...is Rui."

Why is Rui...

I...

We've never introduced ourselves.

I shouldn't remember that.

It never happened.

This is something I'm making up. Rui has never said these things. That warm tone, that...

...Younger version of him.

We met on July 16th for the first time. I'd never seen him before that.

I covered my ears. I felt my breaths picking up and my heart rate rising.

Why do I...

Remember...?

I was scared I would forget myself. Who I was, my life, my friends, my family, my identity. Who am I...?

"I'm Y/N. I'm Y/N. I'm..."

"I'm Y/N! Let's be friends!"

I started feeling my eyes droop downwards.


"I'm sorry."
