Chapter 14

I awoke with another headache, and slight ringing in my ears. I grunted in uncomfortable pain. I held my head in my hands, and massaged my temples a little. After blinking various times, I finally could make something of my surroundings. I was in the coffee shop I had went to in the last two timelines. After all, it was my favorite coffee shop, and always will be. I checked my phone for the date. March 4th 2020. I entered the camera app to check if I changed. Yep, a twenty four year old woman with fabulous black hair. I smiled to myself jokingly.

"Hey, it worked..." I laughed. So the glowing does mean that they were the trigger! I grinned at myself, but sadly the effect of happiness I felt from having a correct theory didn't last. My main objective was to make sure Kokoro was okay, and alive.

I packed my stuff, and ordered a coffee to go. As I waited, I got a phone call from a number I didn't recognize. I was about to answer it, but the barista had given the coffee to me, so I just rejected the call. I payed, thanked the barista and left with my delicious coffee in hand.

I was going to go home, and find some stuff out then. My phone rang obnoxiously loud again, and I was in the middle of an intersection. I ran to the other side real quick, and picked up my phone. As I picked it up and moved to somewhere where I wasn't blocking the way. I looked at the phone, and it was the same number... I hesitated for the minute. Interesting...

I answered it up and spoke.

"Hello, This is Kanashii. Who am I speaking with?" I said, completely changing my tone of voice for the fun of it.

"Kanashii? It's me, Naoki. Also, why are you speaking like that?" He chuckled on the line, and I cringed at myself. IDIOT!

"Oh, uh... no reason. Anyway, what is it?" I replied awkwardly. "Where are you?" He asked. I told him my location, and city.

"Alright, I'll be right there to pick you up. Stay there." He said. "Wait- pick me up for what?" I asked, but he had already hung up.

I sighed, and leaned up against a wall to some shop. In the meantime, I had downloaded an app to play checkers, which only lead to me practically in tears. Having lost to an easy bot various times, I was ready to throw my phone on the ground only after ten minutes of playing.

"Kanashii?" I heard a familiar, but lower voice speak. I looked up from my phone, and saw...

"Naoki?!" I exclaimed. He had to be two feet taller at least from when I last saw him. He looked more mature, and his hair was very similar to how it was ten years ago. He still had his soft ashy pink eyes, but for some reason they seemed way more serious than they were before...

"You've grown so tall!" I laughed. "Just a moment ago when I saw you, you were this little bean..."

"Oh, that means you just came back from the past?" He asked. "Yeah. Anyway, what did you mean by 'picking me up'?" I asked. "I'm taking you to my place." He answered.

Uh...

"For what?" I asked. "To discuss something." Was his only reply, as he opened the door to his car passenger seat, and gestured for me to step inside. I just stared dumbfounded for a minute.

"Okay." I said nonchalantly as I stepped inside. Seconds later, he got in the drivers seat, and drove off to somewhere I didn't recognize. Meanwhile, as he was driving, I was teasing him about how adorable he was when he was a kid, and how cute his rosy cheeks were.
