Between 2 Worlds

Fate

L O G - 143
The first thing I finally get to do about owning my own home is going crazy on decoration. I know it's usually a woman that does all the creativity but I'm a creative guy too. I got an update on Mom and Dad on their retirement trip to the seven wonders of the world. I still can't believe Alan overdosed the farewell party at the company with so many people haha. One of these days he's gonna get an earful from Emma and the kids. Who am I kidding he's always getting an earful from his beloved. As for me I'm curious as always. Instead of running from my fears I'm learning how to control and embrace them. Starting with the most confusing one... the time I went missing for a month.
It's happened twice in my life in which people claim this crazy theory. Instead of as a kid just ignoring it I told myself I'll get to the bottom of it once I settle down. So here I am, in a naked house ready to be Denshified in any way I want. I'm thinking of going antique instead of Invisional like other people. The only downfall of being a solo wolf is that you're prone to visitors critiquing your taste harder. I'm not expecting visitors anytime soon so I'll go with my dream set up for now.

One of the cool things about the world changing slowly into modified cities is that you get to almost literally walk into the past. As in one moment you're in this cool modern Invisional city, then the next you're shopping in an antique style mall. I try my best looking for stuff that seems official but attractive to the eye. Back then I used to dread using my own money but now that I see where I am, I'm happy with life. Working as a cultural innovator in the Grand Invision Organization brings many benefits. Not only for the money but the experience it gives you. The chance to speak to different people around the globe about our organization. Basically what I do is to introduce our products and modifications to their needs. Let's say you're in Europe, it's cold and gloomy, so we offer stock that brings joy to them. Or a third world country that needs food, I introduce them an economic and environmentally safe farmhouse. It constantly sucks the natural dirt and modifies it into rich soil for the plants in the glass house. Anyways, before I get all geeky with tech, I do have to appreciate my Dad and Mom a lot. I was the first person to test the virtual sync with a human, and it came out successful. Basically if you recall, it turns any thought into an action. Say you want a burger, it suggests locations without even saying it to. A screen that's only visible to your eyes and no one else.

"It kind of sucks that I have to go like this"

... I stop in the middle of my tracks and look around to see if anyone would say that. Everyone is just minding their own business as usual.
Ok so I got a desk, a bed, a sofa, tv, plants, fridge, stove, and food for now. They're being delivered tonight so I have plenty of time to look into this kit I found in my boxes.

As usual it displays my health facts just like a medical hologram would. Yet somehow this one seems very unique from the others

"You did good in the game though"

I think my visual sync might be on the fritz, maybe it's the AI programming.
So the first time I saw this contraption was on a bus on the way to Grand Junction from cliff climbing. I think it was just there, I don't really know, but I do know it had my information on it.

"I wish I could've beaten it in the proper way"

Yep, definitely need to re-calibrate them soon... continuing. I found a way to open it a while back and close it too, all it does is show how I am. At times where I felt sick it alerted me of what to do. To tell you the truth it's scary how fast I get over a sickness because of this.

"Denshi... can you keep a promise?"

Umm... before I start panicking lemme check this thing.
It says I'm normal but seem to be having a high brain activity in one of its regions.
It says "To help prevent headaches or migraines please touch the shock lever."
First off: I'm not trying to ge- OW!!!

I start letting tears fall down my face as if I'm in pain... but why? It was just a shock, unless it has emotional side effects.

"I can keep a promise yes"

No way... is this why... did I really let it happen again?

"You swear on your life you can keep a promise?"

Now I know why I'm crying... I can't believe that I forgot about her again.

"I might be dying at the moment but I swear on my grave haha"

I get up and put on my shoes and coat as if I know where I'm going. In reality I have no clue as to where I'm wanting to go anymore. The world? The sights? The scenery? I run as fast as I can past the entrance to the apartments with tears falling down my face.
People look at me in worry or concern but I ignore them. My heart hurts so much it confuses me, if it hurts because of sprinting past downtown or the emotions coursing through my blood. I promised Mayura I would remind her everyday of who she is and who I am. Reminding her what world we're in, where she came from. Even the pain she's told me and the happiness she shared with me. Everything... I want to tell her everything about her. I can't believe I also forgot my one true promise...

"Promise me..."

Denshi
(crying and running) ...that after I go...

"back where you came from..."

Denshi
that I'll remember you...

"no matter how long it takes..."

Denshi
(stops running) I promised you...

"no matter what it takes..."

Denshi
(falls on knees) we'll see each other again

"and remember each other..."

(unanimously)

"between our two worlds"
