hour four

jirae opened her eyes, staring at the ceiling. she was tired and confused. she had been repeating the same hour for a while and she didn't know how and why.

sitting up, she lazily grabbed her phone and checked the date. but of course, nothing changed. it was still 10:27 am on the 22nd of march.

lying back down on the bed, she frowned. why is this happening to me? how is this even happening? where did the smoke even come from?!

realisation hit her as she immediately sat up on her bed. "i need to figure out how the fire started. and where the boys are." she said to herself, walking out of her room.

the blue-haired male glanced at her, opening his mouth to say something.

"yes, i know. you thought i'd sleep in today but nope. i'm alive and awake. for now." she mumbled last bit.

"wha-"

"three, two, one." she suddenly said making jaemin confused.

"what ar-" jaemin was cut off by the door opening revealing haechan with the same drinks in his hands.

"yo jaem i got your coffee." haechan said, passing him the cup of coffee.

jirae stood there smiling at haechan.

"sorry rae. didn't know you'd be home today," they said at the same time. haechan eyed her weirdly, jirae just smiling at him.

jaemin paused his game, staring at her. "what the-"

jirae lifted her hand up, making jaemin stop. "just play boys, i'll be chilling here just watching. don't mind me."

jaemin furrowed his eyebrows at her but continued anyway. haechan cautiously sat next to jaemin, eyeing the weird girl as she walked to the kitchen and back.

taking a seat on the floor next to the sofa, jirae watched as the two boys play their video game. looking around every now and then to see where the smoke possibly came from.

jaemin glanced at her, curious and confused of her weird behaviour. she would never watch them play games. she thought it was boring.

"hey are you okay?" he asked her. jirae looked at him nodding. "yeah. just... yeah." she mumbled, not really knowing what to say.

jirae looked at the clock on the wall. 11:22 AM. five minutes. she thought.

the two boys suddenly turned the television off, standing up. jirae furrowed her eyebrows looking at them, standing up as well. "where are you two going?" she asked.
