Chapter 9: Conversation

Ryoma watched Jei-dy behind her back. He remembered his dream.

"C'mon," he said and went ahead; passing by Jei-dy.

Jei-dy stood up and got her things and followed Ryoma. She looked at him from foot to head.

Ryoma bought drinks in a vending machine and then he threw it to her. She smiled a little.

"I like chocolate drinks."

"I know," he said and then he opened the Ponta and went ahead.

"How?" She asked and ran a little to followed Ryoma.

"I just know."

They didn't talk to each other until they reached the place near the river.

"Oh… How beautiful this place is!" Jei-dy said while having some shots.

Ryoma sat down and drunk his Ponta while Jei-dy paused for a while and stared at the river. Ryoma noticed it. She turned back to Ryoma.

"This place… It's looks familiar to me," she said innocently.

"It is always shown in some movies and other TV programs."

Jei-dy sat beside him and got some chocolates on her bag.

"Get some as a sign of my gratitude."

He hesitated to get some chocolates because he remembered his dream about eating it.

"Hey, have some."

Ryoma had some chocolates. This situation was a little copycat of his dream.

"Echizen…"

"Huh?"

"Have we met before?"

"Met?"

"Deja vu? Is this what they called Deja vu?"

Ryoma didn't say a word instead he took a bite from the chocolate.

"I think this happened before but that's only a feeling."

"Is that what bothering you?"

"Quite yes… what bothering me is you. I can't explain why you're so familiar to me. And it's weird! Tomo said you're not friendly and always make a snob but then, why did you smile at me at the first time we've met?"

"We've met before," Ryoma said his confession.

"Really? When? Where? How?"

"We've met last night in my dreams. I had a double dream last night and it's all about you."

"All about me, but why?"

"I don't know," he said and bite the chocolate.

Silence…

"Echizen," she broke the silence.

"Ryoma. Call me on my first name."

"Ryoma..."

"Why?"

"There's a lot of chocolate around your lips."

Ryoma cleaned his faced and licked his finger and then he suddenly smile.

CLICK!

Jei-dy made a shot. She looked at the LCD of the camera.

"You will say to me that I'd better not to smile coz I'm cuter when I'm serious?"

"How did you know?"

"I've told you, I had dream of you."

"Okay," she said while searching on her bag.

"Don't try to show me the picture of Horio."

"Wow! Your dream is amazing!"

Silence…

"I don't know why…" Again she broke the silence. "But when I was a child, something was pushing me back here in Japan. It's seems that there's something that I left when I had a vacation here. I felt that I have an unfinished mission."

"But then, you're here," Ryoma commented.

"Yes. And when I saw you, half of my dissatisfaction melts away."

"Do you enjoy my company?"

"What do you think?" She reverse the question.

"I guess so…" he answered.

TOOTOOT! TOOTOOT!

Jei-dy's phone interferes with them.
