Vin chuckled hearing what the man in front of him said before finally remembering something.
"Oh, yes, how are you with Anna?"
"She's fine," Van replied in amazement. "But why are you suddenly asking?"
"It's fine, I just wanted to make sure."
"Ensure?" repeated the young man who immediately nodded by his brother. "What do you mean?"
At this time he saw Vin who chuckled before he heard what his brother said again.
"I just want to make sure that your relationship is okay."
"Oh, for that ..." Van hung up on him for a moment with a smile before finally returning, "Thank you very much for your concern for my relationship."
"Anna is a good girl, and you must know very well about it, right?"
"Yeah, you're right. I'm also lucky to have someone like her."
For some reason, Vin felt sad when he heard what his older brother said.
It's not the Anna that Van always tells about, but the others. If only the incident at that time had not happened, his brother might have been happy with the girl who had stolen his heart.
How did Vin know that Anna was not the person his brother always told him about?
Since then he's always been looking for it himself, just to make sure of the truth because after all, he didn't want his brother to feel sad if only one day Van had to return to remember all the memories he had lost and the woman he had always dreamed of.
"Vin," called someone who was in front of him at this time. "Are you okay?"
"O-oh, yes, I'm fine. Brother, go to sleep, it's late."
"Hm ... you too, Vin. Isn't tomorrow your thesis trial?"
"Yeah, you're right, Bro." Then Vin lowered his head languidly before finally returning to say, "But I don't know if this will work or not."
Hearing this, Van immediately smiled and patted one of the shoulders of his brother to calm and encourage his little brother.
"Hey, what are you saying, Vin? My brother will get the best results, just trust me."
"I always believed in you, Bro. Thank you for the support."
"You're welcome, Vin, then quickly go to your room!"
"Hm ... alright."
Vin's departure made the man immediately sigh with his hands folded across his chest before finally entering the room and not forgetting to close the door.
He immediately walked over to the bed and lay down on it. His eyes looked up at the ceiling with his thoughts suddenly wandering.
His memory of a strange girl he met in a restaurant by accident made Van feel curious.
"Should I see her?"
But a few moments later he immediately shook his head so that Van, who realized this, covered his face with both hands while sighing. For some reason, his chest felt tight this time every time he remembered the figure of the girl he had just met some time ago.
"Why would I meet her? We're just strangers who accidentally met, aren't we? Besides, I think this will only be temporary," Van muttered with a smile. The young man tried to convince himself. "But why do I feel like I already know her? No, maybe it's just my feeling. Maybe she looks like someone."

The next day a girl who had finished dressing up immediately took her favorite phone and tote bag. She stepped out of the room to go downstairs where everyone was
There were already her parents with her younger brother who was being fed by Mara, which made Via smile immediately.
"Why is my brother growing up so fast, huh? I'm not ready to see him grow up yet."
Mara and John who heard it smiled before finally seeing that their grown daughter had just pulled out a chair to sit across from them.
"Just like us, Via. We were very sad when we saw you grow up so fast," said John, who was immediately nodded by Mara who was feeding Prince.
"I understand." Via just smiled before finally taking the plate and side dishes for breakfast.
"Soon you also have to get married," said Mara while occasionally wiping her son's lips which looked messy. "I want to see you happy."
Hearing that made Via, who was chewing her food with her head down, instantly froze, and John, who realized this, turned to the side where his wife was and nudged her intending to tell her to be quiet.
"Via, today you are coming with Daddy, huh?"
"Today?" Via looks surprised after hearing what the person in front of her said at this time. "I have to go to college, Dad."
"Okay, Dad will pick you up later after you're done with your business on campus."
"But Daddy---" John shook his head. "No refusal."
In the end, there was nothing she could do but obey her father's orders, so now Via sighed and resumed her breakfast.
In contrast to Mara, who had just been silent listening to the conversation between the two of them.

The man had been keeping an eye on the clock in his hand while occasionally glancing around just to make sure that the person he had been waiting for had arrived until finally, the corners of his lips rose to form a smile.
It seemed that a girl had just made Aldera immediately run to approach the person until finally, the man was now in front of her.
"Good morning, Via!" he said excitedly. "Looks like you're late today?"
Via who was in front of him was surprised after knowing that Aldera would approach her so now the girl bowed her head.
"Y-yes, Dera," the girl answered awkwardly.
"Via, yesterday you were fine, right?" the man asked for sure. "I ... just can't stop thinking about it, because you're the one who suddenly wants to leave that restaurant."
"Oh, for that ..." The girl sighed for a moment before finally saying again, "To be honest I feel guilty, I'm sorry, huh."
"N-no, Via. I didn't mind what happened that time, but I just felt worried about you."
A few moments later someone came from behind that made Aldera and Via immediately avert their eyes.
"Hm ... Dera, I'm sorry," the girl paused and smiled. "Looks like I have to go now."
"Oh, yeah, that's fine. See you later, Via."
"Y-yes, Dera, then I will go."
After that Via also walked away from Aldera who had been watching her all this time.
In contrast to the girl who was currently heaving a sigh of relief because she was finally able to avoid her best friend. But someone in front of her looked at Via blankly.
"Via, what are you doing?"
"O-oh, no."
"Alright, let's go!"
Via didn't intend to respond anymore so now the girl nodded and followed the footsteps of a girl who was in front of her at this time.
