The Gray Fantasy

[Lost]

Words couldn’t describe how he felt that night. Like a newly-released insane from a mental hospital, he was laughing at something for no apparent reason. Then suddenly, an unknown ray flashed through his windows and a big bang took place.

Everything has changed.

All he could remember was that big blast.

It was early in the morning.

“Good morning plants!

He opened his mouth widely even though his breath smelt like rotting meat. It accidentally withered the plants.

“I’ m so sorry buddies, I thought that my breath was good enough to greet you good morning”, he apologized while laughing.

Automatically, the first thing that he would do is to text Andrea. Just one text from Andrea would make his day in rhythm. He dramatically crawled to the table and grabbed the phone. As soon as he finished typing the message, he quickly searched for Andrea’s number.

“Oops I overran, let me check again. Letter A, letter a.”

He scrolled again and finally he found out the list.

 “Letter A gotcha!”

He couldn’t believe in what he discovered. His eyes were decorated with question marks and exclamation points. Astonishment pricked him skin-deep during that cold hour of the day. He still couldn't get over about it.

“Holy moly! What the hell had gone last night? As far as I could recall, I have saved her phone number in my cell phone. That’s all! But where in the earth did it go?”, he complained.

After that, he just thought that maybe he just deleted it accidentally or it could also be one of his classmates who borrowed the phone yesterday and made fun of him and decided to delete the number.

Considering that thing as a false perception, he quickly pulled his clothes out of the closet and wore it. Then he went to school like nothing has happened.

When he arrived at the school, an odd feeling knocked his chest like something terrible exploded from the inside. The coldness reached his fingertips. He was shivering in cold.

As he walked by, he noticed an unusual aura. In school, flocks of lively people he used to see every time he passed by on the front porch were like ghosts of past just roaming around the vast place. 'The place’s structure remained indifferent but it looks like an abandoned mansion.'

“Everything has entirely changed, what a weird day!” he pondered.

He opted to just go to the room and wait there for Andrea. He waited for long idle hours but Andrea didn’t come.

“I wonder why Andrea is absent today. I still haven’t received any calls or texts from her. This was really bad. I’m worrying now”, he frowned.

In the afternoon, Pau with his friends, went to the food court. While they're eating their lunch, there was still something in his mind that continued to bother him. So he asked them if they know Andrea’s whereabouts.

“Ricks, did you know where Andrea go?”

 Ricks replied “Who’s that girl? I never heard her name before?” Could you please introduce her to us?”

“How the hell happened that he didn’t know Andrea? He was just joking I know that!”  Pau thought.

Not contented in what Ricks said, he asked Jhasen next.
