[Dream]
"Ecirel! Ecirel! let me in, I'm here " Kai started searching for Ecirel again after entering the dream.
"Kai! You're here already, wait a sec!"
In the next second, his surroundings of were covered with colourful lights and zoooommmm...
He got teleported to where Ecirel was.
"Ah finally, after so many days! Huh, wha— what is this? " Kai stretched his back but stopped halfway after noticing something weird.
"Wha- what's this place!!!" Kai yelled after looking at the place he was in.
"Why so many lights? It's so crowded! It's hard to find someone in here! Ecirel! Ecirel! Where are you?"
Kai's POV
I was in a club of some sort, people were dancing and drinking everywhere, the music was so loud and pumping that my body started to bounce on the beat of its own. Between all this, I saw Ecirel coming towards me with drinks in her hand
"Kai!! Kai!! I'm here wait there okay " Ecirel shouted
"Huh whattt? What are you saying I can't hear you !!" Music in the club was too loud I yelled as I wasn't able to hear her single word.
"Grab the drinks for me or I'll fall!! " Ecirel handed the drinks over to me because it was difficult for her to walk through the crowd without spilling the drinks.
"Ah finally, give me my drink " She sighed.
"Ecirel I have a question for you?" I finally asked after fishing my mind.
"Ahh this is bitter I thought alcohol would taste nice because everyone likes it! Huh, a question you say? What is it?" She asked with a bitter expression.
"Why do you always meet me in such bizarre places??!" I was kinda excited but confused as well.
It was better to see each other in a peaceful environment. She and me alone...
"Oh this, well you know I always wanted to enjoy all these but I couldn't do it, but when you came into my life I got someone's dream to base my illusions on and I got someone to spend time with me".
"Really??!!!! You parasite!!! You are using my dream to fulfil your desire.
Haww... how vicious!!!" It was very fun to tease her.
"No no no no !!!! It's not like this noo Kai!!! It's not like that " She started crying and shedding tears like a newborn baby.
"Hey! Hey! I'm sorry I was playing with you" After seeing her tears my heart ached. I should have joked in a limit.
"You're not angry ?" Ecirel asked me with puppy eyes.
"No, not at all, you're cute you know? ".She was blushing after hearing such compliment.
"Haha I know that I am, you know I always wanted to live as a human. Because they can love, live, laugh, they're free, they can do anything, they have happy families and they're the luckiest of all but they still don't cherish that " She spoke in a sweet but sad tone.
I was unable to control my body from making any move.
I raised my hand and patted Ecirel's head and embraced her, that was a nice way to console a sad person. Right??
I consoled her that it was okay, I promised to be with her so she will never feel lonely and will do all the crazy stuff with her she wants to do.
"Thank you kai, I hope I can meet you soon".
"Dont get emotional, let's cheers for our upcoming adventures ".
Kai cheered Ecirel and sipped the drink Ecirel brought, ffkkrrkrkrk - "What was it?" Kai spited out his drink because it was so bitter for him. What a mood spoiler.
"Was it poison or something, I'll create soft drinks instead!" Kai aligned both of his hands and creates two glasses of soft drinks for Ecirel and himself.
"This tastes better! Ohh yeah by poison, I remember something a few days ago in the council they told me they summoned me here! So why I got summoned here to you instead of being summoned in the leviathan palace?" Kai asked.
"Ahh, well it was so complicated I thought it'll be better not telling you" Ecirel sighed.
"Dont work your brain too much Kai I'll explain it to you okay ? So, listen carefully when a person is being summoned he has to go through some legalities because if you teleport someone in another world without the permission of Gatekeepers, it can disturb the realms " Ecirel explained.
"So if a summoning ritual is performed , the party who performs the ritual sends a broker or middle man to the person who is supposed to be summoned, so he can reach the destined location safely. But for you, you ran away from the broker"
"Wait what!! I never met a broker !! I suffered so much!! what are you talking about".
Kai was confused about whatever Ecirel was telling him, and in addition to the confusion the loud music in the club stressed him more that he dragged Ecirel out of the club so they can talk alone in silence.
"Noooo!!! I wanted to eat something! Kai you baddie!" Ecirel cried out.
"Let's take a walk and we'll talk about it, I'll get you something to eat".
"Ah alright, see that's the reason why I never explained it to you (sighs).
Ok listen here carefully, remember the day you were summoned here, that day before you left home, you took some pills and said 'It's bitter! It was supposed to be sweet!' The pill you ate that day was expired ! Whatever you saw that day were hallucinations".
"What the fuck are you talking about ??! So you mean I had hallucinations but that man was there !!! And how do you know this much are you a stalker???" Kai inquired
"Eeeeeeee!! No no shut up and focus what I'm telling you" Ecirel panted with a blush on her cheeks.
" The broker approached you , he even followed you so far but you ran away from him " Ecirel explained.
Kai screamed out of shock in the middle of the road, the people around him looked at him as he was a psychopath, he was creating such an embarrassing situation that Ecirel was forced to shut his mouth.
"Ahhh you're a stupid sandwich !!!! Listen the broker was from hell , what did you expect him to look like and you were hallucinating okayyy ! .
Now you'll ask then what explanation, I have about the door? The door was there because the mixing of worlds was happening and you opened that door and got yourself here. Well you can say it was a rare coincidence you got teleported in the same world you were supposed to be summoned in".
Ecirel sighed and was tired of explaining everything to kai, while she was explaining it to kai she noticed a ramen shop around the corner of the street.
"Kai! Kai! Noodles get me noodles! I want some ramen!!!!! Please !!!" Ecirel jumped out of excitement.
"I understand everything a little bit. I guess I've stressed you too much today, so I won't stress you more! Let's get some ramen ".
The ramen shop was built on a food truck, an old lady was serving noodles in the truck. There was no one in the shop other than them, the scent of the noodle being cooked on a hot pan with different sauces was so amazing that his craving heightened to the moon. After waiting for five minutes the lady served them two bowls of black bean noodles along with chilling Cola. The noodles the lady served were so yummy that they asked for more and more.
"Kai! It's so good it's awesome!!!" Ecirel spoke as she was bubbled with joy.
"Hmmm, it really is wowwew!!"
Kai's POV
After eating ramen it was about morning and was time when I had to leave, Ecirel was standing there and was saying goodbye to me, I felt there was something I should do before I leave.
I dunno from where but I got the courage .......
I approached Ecirel and told her I need to tell her something important. She glared at me with a confusing look.
I leaned towards her to whisper something in her ears but I took advantage of that moment and kissed her.
It was just a touch of a few seconds of her soft red lips and mine. But it was like a magical moment for me. Seemed like everything around us froze. Time was waiting for us to complete our 'special' goodbye session.
It was a strange feeling for me. It was my first kiss after all l!!!!!!!!
I was confused myself on my action that I forgot to consider her feelings...
My subconscious mind was craving for this affection. Yet I was standing there without a clue.
She was flustered and began to sweat as I kissed her, she had no idea what was going on, I had no idea why I kissed her, I smiled and told her " see you next time"
She tried to ask what I just did , but I was too shy to explain. I distracted her sight and disappeared back into my world so I don't have to explain...I guess I was starting to have feelings for her...
