Ara woke up with a thud. Apparently, she fell down the bed but it didn't bother her. Something else is bothering her so she dressed up, ate breakfast and ran out of her house to school as quickly as possible. She has to tell someone before she goes crazy.

"Nayin. Nayin!" She called from afar as she runs up the stairs. Nayin immediately looked at her, worried.

"Woah! Slow down, relax, then talk. Jeez, is it that important?" Ara nodded as if she was going crazy.

She is crazy.

"I... Okay, you know this book that we bought from the store yesterday and I have to study it even if I only got 3 hours of sleep because of this?" Nayin nodded because she was awake with her at that time.

"Yeah, I know all of that. So... Why are you repeating it again?"

"It's because I found something else."

"What?"

"This necklace." Ara lifted up a necklace from her neck, earning an awestruck face from Nayin.

"Wow... That's really pretty. Keep it." Nayin suggested but Ara was way ahead of that.

"Keep it... I can't remove it actually." Nayin suddenly had a confused face. They tried removing it by its clasp but to no luck.

"How is that even possible? Is your head that big?" She says as she looks at Ara one more time, realizing she had a smaller face than her own.

"Nevermind, scratch that."

"But... That's not my point right now Nayin."

"Then what is?"

"I dreamt of something. To be specific someone." She confessed to her best friend, leaving her in shock.

"You? Dreaming? You must be high or something." She says as she sips a drink.

"I'm telling you. And it felt... so real. A bit too real." Ara said.

"Ara, you? A girl who always lack sleep and rest, dreamt of something."

"Someone."

"Maybe that someone is here in school. You must have seen that person before." Ara shook her head.

"No, not from here. He had a different outfit. Not a school uniform. He was wearing training clothes."

"Wait... He?"

"Yes."

"You dreamt of a guy?"

"Yes."

"Is that Alex but you just didn't realize?" Ara almost laughed but that would have been bad.

"No. He was different. He had dyed blonde hair. And his voice was much deeper. Too deep. And he's not as tall as Alex but still taller than me." She described the guy in her dream.

"What happened in the dream?"

"From the start?"

"From the very start."
