"So... What exactly do you remember, anyways?" I looked at Aoi sharply as we trailed behind Ginti.

"So you don't remember either?" I asked, kind of glad it wasn't just me. He shook his head.

"I think I was waiting for you.. To get out of work." He looked at the ground trying hard to remember.

"Mmhmm. I had to work late because someone called out. It was at least another five hours till I got out and I remember walking home... That's all I can remember." I explained with an unsatisfied stop. Why can't we remember? He nods, taking in the information and looked forward with attention.

We had finally came to a stop and looked forward, Ginti not being found. There were a few steps ahead of us that led to a big wide door. There were two lights hanging down from the ceiling and the walls near the doorway had decor on them. We walked up a few steps and made it to the door, looking at a huge room we now stood before. It was almost completely empty except for a large mat of the floor with some different colored circles on them, a small table which Ginti was sitting on and a tall...thing next to him. It had different colors on them in a larger circle and in the center was a kokeshi doll. In each corner was either a picture of a foot or a hand. In the left top corner was a foot, the top right corner was a hand, the bottom left corner was a hand and the bottom right corner was another foot. I should explain the mat some more too. It was a large white mat with different colored circles on them. But there were same colored circles in each row. In the first row were green circles, then yellow, then blue and then red circles. Each colored row repeated only three times, of course each row only consisting of its color. I stared at it for a moment before turning to the cat as it jumped out of my arms. I watched it walk towards Ginti, taking a place next to him on the floor and stood tall. The cat also had a red button set down in front of it. Well that's rather odd. And where'd the button come from?!

"I have no idea how to play this." Aoi admittedly openly to him. I looked up from the cat to him as well, noticing him staring at me oddly. I almost jumped in surprise.

"Well give me a sec, geez. I'll explain, just take your socks off and stand on the edge." He orders instead explaining.

"Alright." Aoi and I said together. Aoi slumped to the ground and took his socks off while I stood up and did it, lifting a leg up behind me and reach down to pull them off. I finished and stood there with my arms crossed, staring at the board weirdly. Aoi stood up soon after.

"The spinners gonna give you your instructions." He stated simply and lazily. I hummed quietly.

"What spinner?" I asked

"What spinner?" I asked. He just stares, his head rested on his head and jabbed his thumb behind him.

"This thing right here, it spins." He explained simply. I tore my eyes away from his and looked at the board now.. It was quiet for a moment before my attention was drawn to the cat with the button again.
