Why did she kiss me? What's up with that? I don't even know her and she suddenly did this to me! Who knows what she might do to me, she's a complete stranger! What's with the kiss?
I never even had my first kiss until now, I just realized...
And she stole it!
I was just about to ask her a lot of questions when she parted her lips from me but the first thing that I did was shout at the top of my lungs as if I'm about to go insane in any second, like a crank from The Maze Runner.
I was suddenly transported to this world, with some unknown entity telling me I can't ever go back, but before that it even told me that I had great intentions that's why I can only see the black book. But what was the entity saying? Like I am chosen by this book?
Really? What's this, "Fushigi Yugi"?
She smiled at me and she suddenly spoke. "Can you understand me now?" My eyes were wide open by the sudden realization that I can now understand her. I can now ask her a lot of questions.
"Why am I here? Who are you guys? What am I going to do? Am I really going to stay in this world and may not return to my real world? Tell me that I'm dreaming." I spoke fast like a number of bullets was fired from a gun. She held my shoulder then showed me a reassuring smile.
"Calm down. I think—" I cut her off.
"Wait…" I squinted my eyes at her. "Why can I understand you, and why can you talk in English," I asked waiting for an answer. "While you're at it, answer all of my questions, too," I said finally as I slowly moved away from them, being cautious.
The girl looked at the guy beside her and kissed him quickly like what she did to me before she returned her gaze to me. I raised my brow at her, half amused, half disgusted.
What bullshit is this?
"My name is Dionne, and this guy with me is Klein." She introduced themselves but I still looked at them looking for more answers.
Klein and Dionne looked at each other, then back at me. "Dionne kissed the both of us because it's one of her abilities to make us understand each other. It's difficult to explain. Put it simply as the quickest way to learn your language," he explained and I scoffed.
What a way to learn.
"But that isn't the only thing that resulted from my power," Dionne added. "Reo kib obmuypnitm op," she added and my eyes grew wide in surprise.
"You just said 'you can understand us'," I said and she nodded at me.
"I know that we still have questions that we haven't answered yet, but we are going to tell you the history of this world for you to further understand why you are here and it will all answer your questions; asked and not asked," Klein said and Dionne started the story.
Finally, some answers!
