Chapter 1 - Going Back Home

Some where in Tokyo, Newcastle street, a white painted six story building, 3 floor, door B lives Jack Williams who just woke up from an immersive headache and is currently swearing profanities because of the head pounding feeling he has.

"Damn, who sent me to drink when I hate alcohol !!",said Jack regretfully.

Jack is one of the few people in the world that hates alcohol, he drank yesterday because it was his 22th birthday and he celebrated it alone.

Why? Guess.

He doesn't have friends in Tokyo sadly because he's an introvert and he is the type that likes to be approached not the other way around, that's what made him alone.

He doesn't mind it though because his a home person through and through. He spends his time reading novels, listening to music, also singing and dancing within his apartment.

The only time he realises he needs friends is when he wants to go out to do activities like shopping, walking, dining and al that.

Don't misunderstand, he has many friends back at home the siblings type of friends that you fight for no reason or a reason like stolen food. Friends that are like parents and they decide to adopt you for no reason. Friends that suddenly comes to your house and refuses to leave. Like that.

In all, he decided to drink alcohol because it's his last day in the city, he's going back home and it's going to be his last and first thing drinking. He doesn't like alcohol in general because of the taste, smell and hot and burning feeling in the throat when swallowing.

After feeling better got up from the floor to make hot honey water. Then, he took the drink from the kitchen while steering with a spoon on his way to the dining table which was part of the living room. Taking a couple of sips while sitting down on chair and thought of what to for the day before going to his home country.

Not coming up with any ideas, he stared into nothing, just spacing out.

After 5 minutes a call came in from his mother .

"Bastard when are coming home, if I don't call you don't call. When is your flight arriving? Do you need Lisa to pick up?, Vanessa asked holding back her tears.

Vanessa, Jack biological mother is the mom of the three children.

Lay Willams the oldest son married to Jessica Stevens, they have six kids. The oldest Mike 8 year old, the twins Peter and Paul 6 years old and lastly the triplets Alexa, Sky and Theo 2 years old.

That's 4 boys - 2 girls.

After having triplets though their love was strong they decided not have more children.

The second child is Jack 22 year old and single.

The last child is of course Lisa Williams 18 years old and has a boyfriend.

That's for now about the family introduction .

" Mom am doing fine I miss everyone especially you of course, about the flight the plan is landing at 3 pm by the time I collect my bags and take the exit it will be 4 pm", he explained.

"Ok dear I will tell your sister so she can pick you up, ok?"

"Okay"

"Have you eaten yet?"

"No"

His mom was about to yell about how many times she had told him to eat in the morning when he interrupted her.

"I just woke up that's why"

There was silence at the other side, his mom didn't not reply to him.

"Mom, are you listenin....."

Suddenly his mom roared at him yelling angryly.

"So you still sleeping by this time", she said sarcastically.

"Your peers wake at 6am to work or make their day productive and you are still sleeping with your mouth and legs wide open..."

She chatted away while he ran to his bedroom and looked around him the walls, corner, curtains for any cameras.

.....

After Jack spoke with his mum, he started to prepare his luggages.

At 12 o'clock he decided that it was finally time to go to the airport. He called an Uber to take him there since it was more faster than taking a bus all the way.

When the car arrived after 10 minutes, he opened the car door and took one final last look at the white painted building he had lived in for a year. It didn't seem much of a long stay for some people but for him, it was perfectly peaceful way of him calming down his nerves and improving on his metal health issues which he used as a form excuse to say 'vacation' which is half true, they other reason for such long stay is to distance himself from people especially those he new.

That's is why he decided to stay in Japan and it didn't entirely bother him not making friends at all.

But suddenly dejavu or something gave him a strange feeling or is it something very strange was going on around him? or rather to him?

When he arrived in Japan on the first day and got to the street to get a look around the city, some one stop him and asked for a location to place which of course he didn't know at all.

Like dude, he just landed.

But what was strange was that he explained to the stranger and pointed directly on where to go, how go and what transport services should he use.

He didn't realise that until he thought himself, "that place is a really nice place to go. It a calming environment with beautiful trees around which are perfect for taking pictures and having a picnic. The temple is nice."

Stunned he stopped speaking and took a minute to process what he just did.

"How did I know.... I have never been here at all, what is going on?".

Another shocking factor made his hair on his skin rise giving goosebumps.

"I just talked to the man just now in Japanese!!"

"I have never learnt it before!!"

"The only language I know is English plus baby talking language and cat language"

"Am I dreaming or paranoid? Do I want to go to Japan that much that my soul flew here in my dream?"

At this moment he didn't know what to do.
