Ghost Girl

I'm sure she will wake...up...

Nightmare 07 – I'm sure she will wake...up...

I left the station and walked the rest of the distance.

The location where I was headed was the place where the incident happened. A trailer truck hit us both while we were crossing. The news article stated that the ones at fault were me and Yume since we crossed the road while the light was still red.

What was important right now was heading to my destination. I was hoping that something might trigger my memories to resurface when I head there.

"......." I stood silently at the sidewalk as I stared at the crossing where the accident had happened. I could see various people walking, some were standing at some spots. The cars, trucks and other kinds of vehicles were moving at the road like normal.

I could not remember anything. I had already thought hard and tried to analyze and focus on many objects and spots on this place but I still couldn't remember anything.

Even crossing the pedestrian lane proved to be in vain.

"Damn...it was no use." I slammed my hand on the wall.

In the end, I still couldn't remember anything.

———————————————————————————————————

Memories of my past shall return soon. That's what I am hoping.

Even though the plan of regaining my memories on the scene of incident didn't work, it was not as if I had no other hints. There were other places I could visit. Namely, the park and the cinema. Those two were the setting in my dreams. I could not ascertain the last one but it was probably her room, which still need consideration on whether I would really try to go there.

There was also the option of finding people who could help me. If I could find someone who might know me and Yume, then I might be able to get some clue or other hints as well. It was not an option to give up now.

I went back to the general hospital since I wanted so see her face again before I go home.

I walked normally this time. I didn't rush into her room. Although she said in the dream that we were once a lover, I could not act like one so suddenly. Still, even if that's the case, there was a similarity between the present me and the past me. We were both in love with her.

I smiled at the thought as it seemed like it was destiny while I opened the door.

"...Who might you be?" A man in his early forties, sitting on the chair beside Yume's bed asked, looking at me bewilderedly.

"......" I could not response immediately as I was a bit shocked to meet other people here. Aside the man, there was also a woman who had just stopped combing Yume's hair.

"...Uh, hello?" The man asked again to grab my attention.

"My name is Kako Reiji."

"What is your relationship with our daughter?" It was the woman who asked this time.

Relationship... Should I tell her that we were once lovers? No, will they even believe that—

"Is she you former—"

"Yes! Akasaki Yume is my former girlfriend!"

"Classmate...?"

...Crap, now I've done it.
