Chapter 5 - Chapter 4: Dream

Kira's point of view

"AHHHHHHH!!!!" A shrill scream sounded out from Shey's bedroom upstairs.

We looked at each other for a second before immediately running upstairs, leaving the kitchen a mess because of panic.

We reached there in less than a minute. I hastily opened her door.

"What the hell happened?!" I gasped.

We found her sitting in her bed with a blank expression on her face while writing something on a piece of note. The note is lavender in color with golden colored vines around the sides. It was a whole stack.

We three frowned. 'What on earth happened?!'

"Oh, you guys came up." She said with a calm smile on her face.

"What. On earth . Happened. To you?" The three of us said in sync.

"Hehe~, sorry. I was too excited." She said apologetically.

"But the good thing is, I had a dream! A good one!" She added with a simple smile on her face.

I frowned. I sighed. 'Forget it, at least she's fine.'

"What was the dream about?" I sat on the edge of the bed.

"Okay, so,.. The two guys I mentioned earlier at breakfast, I dreamt about them. Something interestingly weird is gonna happen and I don't think I'm allowed to tell you." She nonchalantly said.

She has another skill which is very peculiar, she can foresee future and past events through dreams and her intuition is God-level.

( '-_- ) "Seriously? That's it? Amazing." I asked her, my words dipped in sarcasm. 'I got worried for no reason!!'

"Yep! And I think I should mention this, they're both from noble and prominent families and are considered geniuses,... Just like us." She stated seriously.

To be honest, in all the years that I've known her, there's a limited amount of times that I've seen her being serious when it's just us. When she's working, or when there are other people in the room, she subconsciously acts cold, aloof and serious, just like right now. That also applies to when she's incredibly focused on something or when she's in her 'study mode'.

"I found out another thing..." She said seriously while looking down.

"What is it?" I asked seriously, my aura getting darker.

"They're part of the hotties in their branch!" Her mood immediately reverted back to her previous one. Her mood swings are literally on a historically fast level.

"And by the way, what I meant by 'just like us', I'm not sure if that includes the both of you." She pursed her lips.

( =_= ) "You know what? I'm done! I'm going back down and eat." I said and went back downstairs.

She stood up and wrapped our arms together.

"I'm coming too~." We went down the white porcelain-like stairs together. The two followed behind us. 'Why do I feel like they were a bit shocked because of the way she acted just now?'

Once we entered the kitchen, Shey casually sat down a vacant chair and started eating. We followed suit and then chatted while having our meal. When we were done, we helped each other clean the kitchen.

I was in charge of washing the plates, Shey was in charge of drying and putting the plates and utensils back in their glass containers, Allen was in charge of wiping the table, and Alex was in charge of putting the leftovers in a container and placing them inside the fridge.

After cleaning up, we headed back to the living room and lounged and watched television for at least a few hours before the twins and I went home.

"Goodbye!! See you guys tomorrow!" Alex said his farewells.

"Kira, we'll be seeing you tomorrow at the headquarters, right?" Allen asked.

"Yup, and no need to say goodbye to me, you guys are sending me home remember?" I stated with an eyebrow raised.

"Oh yeah, bye bye, Shey!!!" Alex said cheerfully.

"Bye, see you tomorrow." I said and kissed her cheek.

"Bye." Allen simply said.

"Goodbye, guys." She said with a smile on her face.

***************

The two brothers dropped me off at my apartment. I felt exhausted after the half an hour drive.

I checked the time and saw that it was exactly 8:00 pm. I took a quick shower and changed my clothes from my outfit this morning to an oversized shirt and some shorts. I was watching Skyflix on my laptop when my phone rang.

"Hello?" I answered the call without even checking who was calling. If this is a death threat or a scam then I'm just gonna trace the IP address and make them suffer according to how much they pissed me off.

"You're awake." The caller said. 'This voice sounds oddly familiar.' I thought to myself and finally checked who was calling.

"Oh shoot!" I cursed under my breath when I saw that the caller was Shey.

"Let me guess, you're awake, binge watching on your laptop, wearing a dark blue oversized shirt and black shorts with a bowl of potato chips by your side and watching "Flesh"."She stated. Flesh is a series on Skyflix that both of us are addicted to.

"How the hell did you know?" I asked, shocked. 'Did she put some kind of camera here?! How did she guess that so easily?!' I even looked around the room.

"Because I was doing the same exact thing." She replied calmly.

"Okay, lemme guess, you're wearing an oversized sweater with black shorts and thigh high black socks." I told her. We usually do this every night, comparing and guessing what the other was wearing. It's weird, I know. And most of the time, we guess correctly with minor mistakes.

"Anyway, what episode are you in Flesh? I'm in episode 7 where Hazel was operating on a guy named Andre. I think Chris is gonna confess to Hanzel in episode 8!" She said enthusiastically. Her mood swings are sometimes very disturbing. I sometimes wonder whether she has a split personality.

"Same! But Leah is also thinking about confessing to Henry so,.... Another ship!!" I said in same tone as hers. Though in front of other people, both of us kinda act aloof and cold and people often think of us as ladies of a few words, but when it comes to each other, words come out naturally and our behaviors are the complete opposite!

"Anyway, I just wanted to tell you to sleep much earlier because I'm gonna be picking you up tomorrow to make sure you're not late for your first day coming back." She said.

"Wait, what?! No, no, no, no!!! I'm not gonna wake up at 4 am!! You're always so early even though your place is literally 25 minutes away from the organization!! The late time in the organization is 9 am just so you know. Which means you're early by at least 4 hours and 35 minutes!!" I complained to her. She had this habit of getting up early ever since we were children. I expected that she would stop this after at least a year or two but until now she still does!!

"I'm still picking you up though." She said and hung up.

"Wha---- wait, Shey? Hello? Sh*t!" I cursed and sighed to myself.

"Forget it, I'll just sleep at 10, I guess." I said and checked the time.

"What the hell?! It's 10 already?!" I surprisedly said to myself and hurriedly got out of bed, put the empty bowl into the sink and put away my laptop, hurried back to bed, set my alarm to 3:20, laid down and covered myself with the blanket and yawned. I guess I didn't realize how exhausted I actually was until I laid down. I fell asleep.
