Haruka was scrolling through his phone.
Suddenly, he passes out.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that in his contact list, it was "Sakura" above the list. Judging by the place where Sakura's contact name was saved, it was sure that he was checking his phone.
Haruka: "What the hell happened? Didn't I just pass out?... And now then I opened my eyes, I am on my phone in the contacts?"
He was confused by the fact of how it was possible.
"Am I sick or something?"
He thought to himself as he slowly got out of his bed, he kept walking till he heard Jack talking to someone. He doesn't mind much, he walks towards the door, opens it, and then he sees the store in front of his house, he starts to have deja vu, as if he had done this once.
"Did I get up, come here, hear Jack talking with someone, and see the shop? I feel like I did it once...."
Without thinking much, he got out, and he adjusted the headband on his forehead.
He went to the bicycle shop to buy a new flashlight for his bicycle.
After he bought that and adjusted it to his bicycle, he went back to his house.
Lying over his bed like a dead man.
After a week on his birthday, Yume, Aurel, Marcus, Saito, and others wished him.
Haruka was happy as things were going.
Yume went to her house by walking.
And Haruka went alone to his house on his bicycle.
He was thinking, "Ahh.. How beautiful she is... but she is out of my league... we barely talk..."
He went to his house, Jack prepared a cake like a caring woman, even though not to mention he is a guy, a guy with a mustache and is fond of knives.
"Happy birthday, Ruka!"
Jack said with a grin.
"Thanks, Uncle Jack... but you didn't have to go through all the trouble," replied Haruka.
Jack: "Ohh, how couldn't I not? When you trusted me and came to me all by yourself when your dad killed your mother and left you to rot in the house? It is quite a miracle that Sakura missed her flight and came running with Kenjiro and Marie as I gave her a call on my phone."
Haruka: "Yeah, yeah... You didn't have to remind me of that..."
Celebrating his birthday and enjoying the cake with Jake, he went to his room.
Suddenly, when he was about to lie on his bed, he got a headache and a twisting pain in his ankle.
His lungs were burning too.
And his left eye was enduring so much pressure as if it was going to be crushed by a car.
"Ah... the hell is happening... why this... sudden..a-"
And before he could end his sentence, he dropped unconscious on the floor. After a few seconds, he blinked.
His vision was blurry as if he had just woken up from a nightmare.
"Yu-....Yume....D-don't...die..."
He muttered quietly, as if it were a whisper to God, a servant begging his Lord. And how can God refuse the prayer? He hears it all, and he replies to it all, in one way or another.
Haruka's eyes widened. He was surprised by the fact that he was alive.
Haruka: "W-wait...the crash...where am I. Wha- What is this place?..."
He stood up...
"Wait, I have been here before... It's my room, of course... How could I forg-"
He noticed it was a bit different. He walked outside the house, making sure Jack didn't come out of his room. He saw that in front of his house, on the opposite side of the road, stood a huge clothing shop instead of the stationery shop he knew that shouldve existed there.
"Wait, I am... back in this place... w-wait..."
He quickly runs back to his room, checks the contact list again, he found "Sakura Miyamaru."
Last calls:
2 weeks ago
1 week ago
3 days ago
Today, 12:01 am.
He quickly checked the date, it was his birthday...February 25....
"N-no way... this... this can't be true... this is the exact vision of the verse I saw using Erythal crimson a few days ago... wait... did I... get... my soul into this version of me?"
He was thinking about how it happened, because he remembers dying alongside Yume.
"So... what happens to this Haruka??... is he... still inside of me? somewhere?"
He thought about it, but then he checked his phone again, seeing the group chat of the friend circle.
[Saito texted:] "Today was superb, I bet 200 million ferixo that Haruka will love tomorrow's gift."
[Naoki texted:] "I bet 9 trillion ferixo on that."
[Fuyuki Texted:] "Stop exaggerating the amount of Ferixo, I doubt y'all have 200 of them? WELL, I BET 98 TRILLION FERIXO THAT HE WOULD LOVE THE GIFT!"
[Yume Texted:] "I don't talk with him much, neither do I know him, but I wish I did, to be honest, I think he would love the gift..."
Seeing Yume's text, Haruka's heart did a backflip.
Haruka started to sob and cry quietly in his room.
"So... she is alive in this place... I got a second chance... I won't waste it... I will never... ever... waste my chance... I will be careful this time..."
Suddenly, the word "ferixo" started to bother him.
"What does it mean? I thought this universe was a bit different, but... I think it is a lot different... I wish someone were here to tell me about the laws of physics over here..."
Haruka sat on his bed... he couldn't process the thought that he was Alive... he might call himself mad, but he knew it was real, everything was. And he now understands why Atience P. told him to be patient and wait till the right time comes... maybe they knew what was going to happen. And deep down, he hated them because they never warned him of Yume's death, still not because of his death, but Yume's.
While thinking, he eventually falls asleep. But suddenly he was dreaming. He was aware that he was dreaming.
"A lucid dream?" He questioned himself.
Far away, he saw himself asleep. Or more like another "him" asleep.
He went near him
