Chapter 3 - vanished

Have you ever had dreams of people you have no idea who they are?

This is what happens to me all the time.

Frankly, I think they are people I know, but I probably forgot about them.

I feel a big connection between me and them and I still have no clue who they are...

One day I woke up to find myself in a strange room.

I opened my phone even though it happened without me feeling it.

I explored the place.

looked in the furniture, but I found nothing.

No answers.

I continued searching until I looked in the mirror to see a small picture stuck to my forehead.

It shows four members including a dad.

A mother and her two kids.

knock! Knock!

A strong voice of knocking came to the room I'm in which made me jump out of surprise.

I rushed to the door because it seemed like it was a REAl emergency.

And I was just so lost and clueless.

I opened it to see a bold guy holding bags of something which smelled really nice.

This was Daichi.

"You okay Satoshi? You look very pale."

Daichi asked me with a worried face.

Me?

Is he even talking to me?

Am I called Satoshi?

This was what came to my mind.

"Are you talking to me?"

I said pointing at myself.

"Who else silly? Are you really okay? No one is here except me and you"

At that very moment, I didn't have any clue who Daichi is, but what's worst that I didn't even know who Satoshi is.

My head felt very empty and dull.

I was feeling as pure as water, but as mixed feeling as a smoothie.

"Who is Satoshi?"

And with that word getting outside of my mouth Daichi wasted more like an hour inside the room thinking I was joking or something.

He acted like a detective and created an endless number of jokes with some of them being somewhat logical.

The two bags Daichi was holding the ones I talked about earlier are full of delicious chicken which we had as dinner.

What's really funny is the fact that he didn't believe me being unaware of what's happening.

He actually left the dorm not doing so.

And this is how I started the first day of this half-played game.

"Hey!! did you die inside?"

I opened my eyes very surprised to find myself still in the hot spring.

My skin felt very wrinkly so I knew I've wasted a long time.

Not like it's my first time spending this much time in the bath.

Actually, I find it as a hobby.

They were planning on going on a cruise trip.

It sounds like the best place we could wish for in the afternoon and in this island.

We rented a boat and Daichi took the lead.

We had so much fun and this island seemed weird it felt very different from our hometown.

It's 3:53 pm right now and we didn't eat lunch so we searched some near restaurants and we were far from most of them except a seafood one.

So we had no other choice.

We ordered our food.

Wait...

Where is my ring?

I started searching, but it was nowhere.

"Where are you going?"

Yami asked.

"I forget something in the hotel I'll come back."

I started thinking.

What if I lost it on the cruise?

Where am I supposed to search?

I came back in a hurry trying to catch my breath.

Now what?

Where should I start?

One of the hotel maids came to me and said.

"Excuse me sir are you looking for something?"

"Y-eah." I couldn't spell the word perfectly because I was still catching my breath.

"Well if you may please tell me what is the thing you are looking for?"

"It's a ring a matte black colored"

I responded.

After quite a while the maid gave me the ring.

It seemed dump that it took a while for me to get back something I own.

Then I ran back to them.

Was I running because I was afraid the food might get cold or is it that my mind switches to being in a hurry mode all the time?

I ran until I reached the restaurant.

"Finally, this felt like ages"

I walked slowly and opened the door.

From the sunny weather outside till the inside of the restaurant my eyes took time to adjust themselves.

My vision became clear and everything now is visible to see everyone...

Vanished.
