Chapter 16 - Reinterpretation

Previously, on the Reverse 1999, Chapter 15:

Feeling that something happened, seems quite normal yet uncomfortable feeling. Why does it feel like something that you have lived through before? Do you remember it so clearly yet a piece of the puzzle is missing? It's like the feeling of when you wake up and forget about this great dream you had, only worse and you're stuck with an empty feeling and a lingering feeling of dread. Just sigh, and take a deep breath for a while! Yes, calm down! You have been through this before, alright? Inhale and exhale my dear friend, you know this feeling. It's is same yet different this time. It is as if all of us are caught in some strange loop, where we repeat the same mistakes and failures, again and again. But don't be sad! Y/N knows it's difficult, and it's easy to feel like everything is hopeless, but we must find the courage to keep moving forward. No matter how many times we fail, we must keep trying. We must learn from our past mistakes and find a way to make things better.

But how long can you keep going actually? It feels like it's been an eternity, doesn't it? Just going through the same thing again and again, no matter how hard Y/N tries. Things keep happening that Y/N can't change or control, and it feels like everything is stacked against him. It feels unfair and hopeless, and Y/N doesn't know how long he can take it. It's a cycle of pain and despair with no end in sight. It feels like time is playing a cruel joke on Y/N. But there is hope. Time and fate work in mysterious ways. Y/N has done everything he can. He has tried his best, and he has been strong. But now, it feels like an unimaginable load is piling up on his shoulders. Y/N has become hopeless and despaired. Life seems meaningless. Yet, here we are. Y/N knows he needs to keep fighting for his future, for himself, for the ones he loves. Y/N feels like he can't take it anymore, but what if the struggle is just the beginning of something greater?

Fate is like a mischievous, playful little fairy who is always spinning her string of threads. And as she giggles and spins, her threads of fate weave in and out of everybody's lives, bringing in both good and bad luck and changing our paths in unexpected ways. Her influence is vast and far-reaching, affecting everything from our destinies to our everyday decisions. As she weaves, she has no specific outcome in mind - rather, she leaves it to the individual to make the most of the opportunities that she presents. We never know when the tables may turn and fate may turn things in our favor. It's as if the universe holds its breath, waiting for the moment to act. It's a thrilling and terrifying concept.

Good thing we have Tooth Fairy... She ate that fairy...

Perhaps it is a time for reinterpretation or rather a time to reflect. Maybe all these years that we were caught in this loop weren't wasted. Perhaps this was the universe's way of teaching us something, a trial by fire that tested and shaped us for the better. We may not realize it yet, but maybe we grew and matured in ways we never expected through these experiences. Maybe it's time to accept that it's not a curse, but rather a blessing in disguise. It's a frightening thought, isn't it? To think that all those tragedies and heartbreaks weren't for nothing. It's a strange and humbling realization that maybe we needed those trials to become stronger, smarter, and wiser. Maybe we needed that time loop to teach us something. 

That's why it's called "Reinterpretation". Because we need to see things in a different light. It can be a scary concept, but also a hopeful one. it means that maybe this all isn't for nothing. It means that it has its meaning.

Different past and different present. Perhaps that's what fate is all about. A different past would've led to a different present. A different path in life that led to different results. Different choices lead to different destinies. A different past and a different present that could've been that could've been this... The regrets... the what-could've-been... the things that could've been different if not because of a different past. Different past, different present. It's an awful feeling of missed opportunities and what-ifs. The past, present, and future are all interlinked, connected in one way or another. Everything that happens in the past affects the present in one way or another, and the present affects the future in the same way. So if the past had been different, the present would be different, and the future would also be different. That is the way of life and the way of the world.  As if you are somehow stuck in time but also constantly moving forward. You can see things happening around you, things that seem so familiar yet so different. The past seems so distant yet so close. As if time was looping but also moving onward at the same time. It's a strange and confusing feeling. Sometimes, it can feel overwhelming. Sometimes, it can feel like you're losing your grip on reality.
