Orbisomn (Dreams Cannot Be Real)

Chapter 1.1

I checked some of their messages, because I'm too lazy to back read all of them.

"Luce. I saw you at the parlor. Why are you dying your hair black?" 4:43PM

"Lucy! Where are you? Why aren't you answering our calls?" 9:35PM

"Luce. We're worried. You didn't even came home. What happened to you? Answer us please." 12:11AM

So it was me who make and dyed my hair black? It's frustrating why I can't remember anything. I probably got myself drunk last night. The doorbell rang again, the food seemed to arrive. I opened the door, and the server came in.

He looked at me, "Oh. You were the girl last night. Are you fine already?" he asked.

I squinted at him, "You knew me? You knew how I got here?"

"Yes. I saw you entered the hall around 6PM just when my shift ended. Your looks are cold and kinda murderous." he said.

"Huh? Why murderous?" I'm confused.

"I don't know, but it looks like you're about to kill people. I was about to get to the elevator that time to change my clothes then you are looking inside confused and amazed. As soon as you set your foot on the elevator, your face became pale then you lost consciousness, so I have no choice but to carry you to your room." he explained. "But it seems like your murderous looks are gone, now." he added.

'So that's what happened.'

"Uhh, sir. Thank you for bringing me here. I'm fine now. I just don't remember what happened last night... and yesterday?"

"It's alright. It's good that you're fine now. Our customer's safety is our priority." he smiled and got out after putting the plates on my table.

I stared at the door blankly trying to remember anything but even though I tried my best, my effort is being wasted. All I know is that one day already passed.

I feel like I haven't eaten anything since yesterday. I just started to eat my meal when my phone rang. 'Vaness is calling'. I took a sip of my coffee, and I readied myself because I know what would happened next. I answered the phone and put the speaker away from my ears. "LUCYYYYY! WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?!! DO YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED WE ARE HERE RIGHT NOWWW?!!!"

"Chill Nessi, I'm just-"

"Chill? How are we going to chill? Just... tell us where the hell are you. I'll fetch you right away!"

"You don't have to fetch me. I'll go home around afternoon."

I heard her sighed on the other line. "Okay, fine. You owe me a big explanation, understand?"

"Fine, fine. I'll hung up now. I have to take a bath." I said and hung up.

I went to the shower room to take a bath. This is insane. Yes, I'm probably insane. How could I forgot what happened in a whole day? I wash my face with a cold water and enter the shower. Now that I remember, this is not the first time this happened to me.

"You were acting weird yesterday. What happened to you?" Friela asked me.

"I do?" I questioned both of them.

"Yeah. You asked us weird places and names we don't even know. Something like Kingdom of... what is it again?" Vaness said.

"Kingdom of Harpie- something like that." Friela added. "Then you said that you were with your friends, one of the name is Licht. Who's this friend of yours?" Friela asked again.

"I don't know. I have no friend with that name and I don't have that memory. When did I say that? Probably I'm just imitating one of the anime I watched. I just don't remember which anime." I said.

"You always watch anime. Do study sometimes, alright? The final exam is approaching." Vaness reminded me.

"Yes I will. You're so grade conscious, aren't you?" I said to her, and she throw a notebook on me.

"Now that you've mentioned it, I haven't finished my research yet. I'll see you guys soonest. I have to go now." Friela waved at us and left.

This happened when we were senior highschools. That time, there are some of the memories of that "yesterday" that I can't remember but I do remember other things that happened. That was the first time it occurs to me, so I ignored it. But I doubt that that was what happened to me yesterday. Maybe I hit my head hard when I fainted, or I'm having short term memory loss.

I got out of the shower and put on my clothes. 'It's already afternoon. Time to check out.' I said to myself and pack my things. I checked out of the hotel and call a taxi for me to get to my apartment.
