Renjun

I felt a tap on my shoulder. I opened my eyes and saw a girl staring at me. I looked around and it was already dark and chilly.

Did I fall asleep outside their house?

"Excuse me, who are you?" The girl asked. I looked at her face, It's Mina.

Wait, she doesn't recognize me?

I stood up and bowed. "I'm Huang Renjun, a friend of your sister, Momo. Haven't we met bef—"

"Shut up." She said cutting me off. She scanned my face and raised her eyebrows before grabbing her phone to text someone.

"I see, follow me." Mina said.

I followed her inside the house. This feels like a déjà vu, wasn't I with Nako earlier? Where is she? Why was I sleeping outside of their house at this time?

My train of thoughts were cut off when Mina spoke.

"Have a seat."

She sat across me and took a sip of her tea.

"This is awkward." I thought.

"Do you want a drink?" She asked, her eyes still not leaving her phone.

"No, I'm good. Thank you." I said.

Mina turned her phone off and looked at me. "What brings you to Japan?" She asked.

What? Is she interviewing me? Yabuki Nako, what the hell are you up to right now?

"I wanted to see Nako." I answered which carved a smirk on her face.

"I'll bring you to her tomorrow morning." Mina said which left me confused.

"Wait what? Is this a prank?" I asked.

"Prank? Do I look like I'm kidding?" Mina said.

"I was with her earlier, and why are you acting like we haven't met already?" I said.

"Impossible," Mina scoffed. "Are you out of your mind? You just got here yesterday. Were you dreaming?" She added.

What? Dreaming?

I took my phone out from my pocket and checked the time and date.

8:55PM
Tuesday, January 11

My flight to Japan was January 10, That was last night.

Does that mean everything that happened with Nako..

It was all a dream..
