“ What?? He killed the previous director?”
“Yea..”
“But even he was killed in the accident right?”
“Well kid.. I shouldn’tbe sayin this so forget about it. I can’t just assume things based on my theories.”
“It’s a theory?”
“Yes. It’s based on all the information I gathered.”
“even if it’s a theory. Can you tell me more about it?”
“sorry kid. I can’t. It’s all speculation..”
“Okay.. if you say so..”
Haruto went back home.. He was all ready yo convince the director one last time. ‘tomorrow is the third day.. 31 March. I don’t know what happens after 31 ..cus I have time leaped all the time before 31.’
Haruto saw the diary.. it had a small drawing of a ghost …he prayed to the diary and slept.
He saw a dream that night…
*Flashback*
Haruto and aoi were in a small old broken walled room.
“Woaahh , I didn’t know this existed.. how did you find this room aoi?”
“hehe.. I was looking for taking pictures..and then I found this..”
“Its broken. This hasn’t been used for a long time..”
“yeaa..”
“Hey..what’s this?”
He saw a huge drawing on the wall. In the corner of the room there were some flowers growing up.
“Don’t touch that Haruto ..”
“Why?”
“It looks like it’s something important..”
“This too..”
“Yea.. “
“Alright.. you were taking pictures right. Make sure you take a good one. We’ll show it to others.”
“don’t pressurise me..”
“Its your job to take pics..”
“Then whats your?”
“pray?”
“Then please pray..”
They both laughed.
*End of flashback*

The next day.. 31 March, Wednesday…

Haruto woke up and headed to the hospital. He first went near the old well. And prayed there.
'hmm.. I wonder if there were any seeds left. .. seeds..’
He thought for a while..
‘seeeds! Yes.. the day when aoi and me received the invitation, what we saw that day were not coffee beans. They were the seeds of Akitsu carnation. Maybe the hospital were trying to stockpile them.. '
Just then Riku arrived..
“Haruto!”
“yo riku! What are you doing here?”
“nothing . Honaka saw you coming here…saki is on the way too”
“Oh yea yea..”
“the dream is still bothering you?”
“Hmm maybe.. what if I tell that it’s not a dream?”
“yesterday you were telling me about time leaping. And now you tell me that this isn’t a dream?”
“Haha.. maybe..”
“either ways.. trying to convince him might be hard. He might hurt the doctor..”
“Ichiri?”
“Yea.. like he knows about time leaping. So he can take drastic steps. Like attack or something”
“yea might be..”
“But the director hasn’t done that yet. It simple means that he doesn’t want to.. like he knows all about time leaping but just that he is missing one last piece..”
“Yes I was wondering that too..”
“But what if it’s the opposite?”
“what do you mean?”
“He may not know anything at all?.. it’s quite possible..”
“Now that you say it…

Yea it is possible!..”
