Next day, Esmay and Flora visits Emma's karate class.
They entered the room.
lot of students standing in a mess.
E, "We'll find Nathan here you said.
Keep looking."
F, "You cant blame me if we dont Find him here.
Besides, This is the last place."
Emma came running to them.
"You guys here?!~\(≧▽≦)/~"
F, "Emma....How you doing?
Actually we couldnt talk properly since Esmay came back. So we thought of visiting you."
Emma, "My classes will start soon.
Please wait for an hour."
Esmay, "Let's go
I dont want to distract you from your classes..."
Emma, "It was short.
Then...We'll meet at school."
A whistle blows.
Emma quickly ran in to her position.
All the student stands in line in their white uniform.
F, "I've checked the students.
He isnt here."
E, "Let's go back then."
While both were standing and staring at the students, A teacher passed beside them.
An Assistant shouts,
"Teacher is here!!"
Flora and Esmay didnt bother to look at the teacher.
They were about to leave. Esmay pulls Flora.
One step away from the exit door, Someone whispers, "Esmay?"
Both looked back.
They were shocked to see Nathan as the teacher.
While Esmay was still in her shock, Flora talks back, "We found you.
You're the teacher. Not the student."
N, "You guys should leave.
If Emma sees you, My plan would fail."
F, "No! We're not leaving without a proper talk."
N, "Arent you insulted enough?
Still came back to me. Looks like you dont want to save your friend."
F, "You-"
E, "We'll wait at the rest room.
Like she said, I need an explaination."
Nathan couldnt reply her.
He left.
Esmay and Flora kept waiting for hours.
E, "He insulted you?!?
You could've tell me about it!"
F, "Forget it. It's nothing.
You know him better than anyone.
Let it slide."
Esmay sighs and whispered,
"I doubt that now..."
Nathan enetered.
Both stood up.
N, "I've told you not to interfere."
E, "For how long?!
We were together for such a long time. You never told me about your karate classes.
At least I could've connected the dots."
N, "It's useless....
I felt the emptiness inside me from the first day we were together.
I dont have to tell you everything.
Only Emma can fill me now.
You should get over me."
E, "…You-
forget it. It's pointless.
Are you here to follow her?"
N, "I'm here since Three years.
This karate Institute belongs to me father. After him, I'm the teacher now.
There wasn't intention of winning her in the first place. Back then I didnt even see the visions.
When it started appearing, I broke up with you. I realised, Emma was already beside me the whole time.
Fate wants us to be together.It's a fixed story.
I never tried to force it. It came to me."
E, "…"
F, "Just having classes together wont make her fall for you."
N, "Ask her.
You'll know why she keeps distance from the other boys."
E, "Is this what you told me...Last time...?"
N, "…"
F, "what do you mean last time?"
N, "None of us can change it-"
Esmay's eyes went teary.
"I wish i never met you!!"
She runs out off the room.
Flora follows her.
They ran outside the building.
Esmay pulls herself together.
"Let's ask Emma."
F, "are you sure...?"
E, "It's now or never."
She again enters the room.
It was a break time. Students were chatting all around the room.
Emma sat alone in a corner.
Both shows up infront of her.
Emma, "You guys havent left yet?"
F, "We have something to ask.
Dont feel burdened.
Answer as it is."
Emma, "Is everything okay?
Esmay...are you-"
Esmay, "Do you like someone here?"
Emma, "…what?…"
F, "we never asked you the reason of staying away from boys Cause we thought It's just the way you are.
Last three years, You have been avoiding others for someone special?"
Emma, "…who told you this nonsense."
Flora could tell Emma's uncomfortness from her expression.
"Since our childhood, We told each other everything related to boys. Even when it was our silly teenage crushes.
You hid it from us?"
Emma, "I wasnt sure of anything.
Why would i Say this nonsense."
Esmay couldnt speak a word. She left.
Instead of following her, Flora sat beside Emma.
"why ....do you like him...?
Is he your type?"
Emma hesitated to answer.still,
"In this last three years, He helped me out in everything.
Whenever i was sad, He cheered me up.
Gave me extra training so that I can protect myself."
Flora shutters, "Do you know who he is...?"
E, "I dont care who he is-"
F, "You have to.
You should know everything about him."
E, "What's there to know..?
I'm nothing to him."
F, "Have you ever thought of opening up your feelings?"
E, "I wouldnt dare. He's my senior.
Is Esmay okay...?
Let's not effect out friendship."
F, "It's already effected.
Nathan is...Esmay's Ex.
(WHY DID I SAY IT?!?)"
E, "..." Not even shocked.
"I couldnt expect anything worse."
F, "Emma dont-"
(I MESSED UP!!)
E, "Let's meet at school."
Left after picking up her bag.
After the class,
Emma walked out with her expressionless face.
Nathan appears, "Is something bothering you?"
Emma ignores and walks away.
Nathan blocked her.
"I want to take you somewhere.
Let's go."
Emma holds back but gets pulled.
Nathan pulls her for a long time and finally reches a place.
There were a lot of flowers around.
N, "Let's not delay it anymore."
Emma was still expressionless, staring at him. If it were any other day, She would have been blushing to death.
N, "We...both have feeling for each other.....
Let's be together now."
Hold her hands.
Emma stood still for a while.
Suddenly takes her hand back
"Are...you Esmay's...ex?"
N, "what?!who told you this nonsense."
E, "So...after we split up, are you gonna call me nonsense too?"
Nathan came closer. Puts his hand in her face,
"Let's not bring the past."
E, "If you dated her...then you should've accepted it.
But you just called her nonsense and insulted my friend."
Nathan was about ro reply but Emma stops him.
"I dont have any problem that you're my best friend's Ex.
You should have been polite Atleast
We're good friends.
Let's keep it up."
Emma left him and walks away.
The flower in his hand falls on the ground.
Later , it was raining heavily.
Flora closed her window while Esmay was siting on her bed.
F, "Dont take it to heart.
I thought you're over him."
E, "…I was...deceived by both my...friend and..."
Flora sat beside her and pats her head.
"Emma was just scared.
Beside, Look at the bright side, The clock is going to fix soon.
We can save Astrid."
Esmay nods without any expression.
Her phone rings. It was a call from Colton.
E, "what is it? Stop calling me so much."
C, "Sister!!
Nathan hasnt reached home yet!!"
Esmay's hand started shaking.
Flora noticed and quickly took it away from her.
"what happened?"
C, "Nathan is still outside in this heavy rain.
His phone is not reachable."
F, "Calm down Calton...
Keep trying.
We'll look for him."
Phone hungs up.
F, "We need to find him.
It's a dangerous storm outside.
Let's move now."
Esmay thought to herself, (The history is repeating.
It's the time when he stabs-
I need to find him!)
She quickly ran outside with an umbrella.
In the other side,
Leo was about to leave with an umbrella, "We'll find him.
Dont be scared.
Aiden! Look after him."
Aiden nods and Leo went out.
In the ground floor, He saw Lora and Esmay.
L, "Let's look around in his apartment area."
They all started looking for him.
But there was no sign of Nathan.
The storm got stronger.
few police stops them from going any further.
Trees started breaking.
They kept shouting his name.
Lora was passing a closed shop, She noticed an Injured leg person laying.
The body was covered with a nearby wall.
She went closer to see his face.
It was Nathan laying on the street with a serious injury.
Lora rushed to him.
She kept calling him but he was still unconcsious.
Calls were unreachable.
She couldnt contact anyone to help her.
slowly puts him around her shoulder.
Carries him to an underground shop.
She requested the owner to help her.
The owner lends her a phone.
She was about to call Leo but something stops her,
(It's all my fault. Emma may have rejected him after knowing the truth. He's badly drunk...
He would turn sober after waking up but for now...I need to fix things.)
After few minutes, Nathan woke up.
He saw Flora infront of him.
"You!-"
F, "Lay down! You're injured."
Nathan seemed to be burning in fire, "Why do you care if i die or live!
All you can do is ruin everything!"
He repeats trying to stand.
Helping him was useless.
Lora backs off when he was burning.
He skips a step and came closer to Lora.
Lora kept backing off and hits the wall.
N, "Forget it.
How can you know the pain of losing someone!
Not once but twice!"
Leo reached the shop.
After seeing Lora and Nathan in that position, Anyone can fall for a misunderstanding.
He runs to them and punches Nathan.
F, "Dont!! He's injured."
Leo grabs his collar, "Stay away from her!"
Nathan even smiled in that situation, "You guys think it's easy?"
Leo took off his hands.
N, "I kept looking for her since the day The visions started appearing.
I still kept Esmay cause the sudden break up would hurt her.
I made her hate me to death.
Emma was the only one who could complete me...
You all thought I was forcing her to fix the clock and save my friends...
In case you forgot..who the main characters are."
He started tearing up,
"We made a promise in our last life!
The pain of seeing her dying infront me is still there..."
Flashback→
{ A girl falls down with her hand covered in blood.
taking out the knife from her body. in a painful and suffering voice, she whispered, "if we meet again, promise me we'll be together"
stops in her last breath.
a boy appeared. takes her in his arms and utters hesitating words, "i...promise".
the girl's hand falls off as she died.
The girl was Emma and the crying boy was Nathan. }
Flashback ends.
Nathan's face was all wet in tears.
He puts his hand in the heart and grabs it tightly as if he's in pain.
"I saw her...dying...for me."
Leo and Flora kept staring. Both were speeachless. It was the only thing they could do.
Esmay and Emma runs to the shop.
Emma, "Nathan!"
All turned to her.
Emma ran to him and hugs tightly.
Nothing was believeable.
N, "you're..."
E, "Im...sorry..."
Both started crying while hugging each other.
Leo looked at Esmay, "how did this happen? I thought She rejected him."
F, "I called her. But...How is she..?"
Esmay smiles, "I guess...this is what i should've done in our past life.
Both are made for each other.
Oh right! Your answers, I did nothing. It was just a realisation she needed."
But Flora and Leo was still confused.
Since Esmay wasnt willing to say anything, They stared at the other two.
After Emma and Nathan parted.
E, "Are you okay....?"
Nathan puts his hand on her face, "Can we be together now...?"
Emma nods and blushes in her teary face.
"Let's complete something we couldn't in our last life."
Flora was shocked, "How did she-"
Esmay, "Emma saw the visons clearly.
The moment she was hesitating to visit Nathan,
I gave her the explaination she needed."
Flora, "That's good...."
Esmay steps forward to them.
Emma tries to back off from Nathan.
Es holds back her hand.
She sat down to their level.
Slowly puts Nathan's and Emma's hand together,
It was a Happy moment for everyone.
Out of nowhere, Esmay took out the Clock from her pocket and placed it between their hands.
A shining light came out of the clock.
They all covered their eyes.
The sun started shining brightly outside.
Flora picked up the clock, It was fixed.
She started jumping around, "YAY!
We fixed the clock! We filled the promise!"
Hugs Leo tightly. He hugs back but in the absent of her notice, a dissappointment covered Leo's face.
He smiled again after they parted.
Es, "The clock fixed in the light of United hearts. Same amount of Adoration from both side."
F, "Can we save Astrid now?"
Everyone became quite.
Anyway, The clock us fixed.
Let's break the time now.
