Lucid

Strange

i woke up , again . This time it was to the sound of the loud knocking on my door . I pulled myself out of bed and opened the door for whoever had knocked, only to be greeted by an angry looking Felix standing in front of me.

“LEE ARI YOU'RE LATE TO SCHOOL , I TOLD YOU TO SET AN ALARM ."

I sighed and pushed my bed sheets  off me. “Yeah yeah, okay lets go. Let's just hurry so I can get to class before the teacher does. You know how he gets if you're late.” I said as I walked past Felix into the bathroom. I brushed my teeth and washed my face while brushing my hair. After I finished up, i looked in the mirror and made sure that I hadn't forgotten anything. Then, I grabbed my bag and headed to my room to get dressed. I threw on my school uniform and an oversized hoodie sweatshirt on top.

When I finally exited my room, Felix was waiting at the bottom of the stairs.

We made our way to school , luckily we got there in time .

First period went by rather quickly for once. we were free to hang out or just talk.I really loved being able to talk with Felix,he always knew what to say to make me feel better.
i spotted by the corner of my eye Yang Jeongin hanging around alone without his group of friends.

"Hey Jeongin! Where are your friends? I haven't seen them ." said Felix while  looking over to where Jeongin was standing.

Jeongin looked over at us and shrugged. "Oh, they are still in the classroom".

" Oh ok " said Felix and then they kept talking about random stuff and ranting to each other . I was just standing there awkwardly, my social skills weren't that good so I stayed quiet most of the time.

" Hey Felix , I will be back in a minute " I said

" Ok Ari , just be careful and come back here so we can get back to class together " he said cheerfully while smiling.

His smile was so beautiful, it always made me feel warm and happy. I'm very glad to have him by my side .

I went to the vending machine to get some bread and a drink for me and Felix . after getting what I needed to get , I turned around to go back to where Felix was when suddenly my head bumped  into someone's chest.
Startled, I fell backwards and onto the floor.

At that moment I felt as if I was struck by lightning, my head hurted and it felt like I had just regained consciousness.

"Ouch!" I winced as I rubbed my forehead. When I opened my eyes, i saw that I had bumped into Hyunjin.
Hwang Hyunjin crouched down next to me and helped me up.

" Oh I'm so sorry " I said .

" No no  don't worry, it wasn't your fault " said Hyunjin as he stood up.

He held out his hand which I took gratefully. And that's when I suddenly got a sense of Deja Vu. it felt like I have already lived this moment, it was a strange occurrence but I shrugged and ignored it, simply because Deja Vu is a common experience so I thought I shouldn't worry too much about it.

Suddenly, a voice broke through my thoughts.

" Oh hey Hyunjin ! " it was Felix's voice. " Oh Ari is that you ? " Felix approached us " Ari are you okay , you're not hurt are you ?" He said in a worried tone .

" I'm okay don't worry ." I said still thinking about what just happened with Hyunjin.

" Oh hi Felix. Don't worry Ari is fine " Said Hyunjin. " By the way, are you two dating ? " he asked so suddenly, Felix and I were caught off guard with his question.

" Have I heard this sentence before , Did Hyunjin ask that question before ?" I thought to myself

" Umm...no we aren't dating, no " said Felix .

A sly grin appeared on Hyunjins face. " Oh I see " he said sounding amused. " Well that's a shame, you should have told me earlier ".
And with those words, he winked at us, and turned away.

Felix let out a sigh and patted my shoulder " Are you alright Ari? " He asked concerned.

" Yes I think I am . "  I said

" Hey Felix ?" I asked

" Yes Ari ?"

" Don't you feel like this situation is oddly familiar, like the conversation we just had and everything ?"

" No "

" it's strange , I have this weird feeling and idk how to explain it , like something feels off "

" You're probably tired that's why you're feeling this way "

Suddenly, My vision became blurry, I started to hear ringing in my ears and my head hurted so painfully

" Ugh"

" Are you okay Ari ?" Asks Felix as he puts his hand on my shoulders
" You must be sick , how about you take an early leave and go home ?"

" Yeah , I probably should "

Felix smiled at me and helped me get my bag from the classroom.

I couldn't help but feel less tense when seeing Felix smiling so brightly , his smile was magical , he always made me feel relaxed.

As soon as I had gotten permission to leave , I went straight home to rest.

I entered the house , drank water , and played on my bed
