"Megumi."
What called out to me
in the tranquility of my slumber
was a voice I haven't heard in a long time.A very kind,
warm voice."Megumi.
Are you okay?"
But somehow,
it was tainted by a hint of uneasiness.I'm okay...
I answered back,
so as not to make her worry."Geez! There you go again...
You're not okay at all!
You should take better care of yourself."
I know...
I should have been more careful.
I responded back weakly.
My lips felt dry.
And my head ached.
But I did not know why...
The voice giggled.
"Haha, good girl."
Mm.
Her laughter felt so warm.
"I'm relieved to hear that, you know?
It worries me sometimes..."
Mm.
I know.
"Do you think it's too late
to say I'm sorry?"Her question puzzled me.
Why?
Why would you be sorry?
"Because I left you all alone."
This talk again?
You couldn't help it.
It had to be done.
I can't remember how many times I have repeated this phrase.
"Haha,
you're so forgiving."She giggled once again.
"You've always been like that.
You haven't changed one bit."
I sighed.
Look who's talking...
"Haha.
That's true."...
"Well,
despite everything,
I'm glad I got to talk to you."Mm.
Me too....
"Ah!
It's about time for you to wake up now!
Off you go,
Megumi."
Mm.
See you again,
.
.
.
Mother.
My eyes snapped open."A dream, huh..."
