- Sorry, you seem a little lost there... Well, how about you following me, I'll explain how you got here.

I stay still. He may seem nice but a part of me doesn't want to listen. His smile darkens.

- You might not want to, but you do not really have any choice...

-...That's not wrong...

He laughs gently, switchs the light off and leaves the room. I follow him in a narrow corridor which leads to another room. It seems to be used as both a kitchen and a dining room. It has in its middle a table, on my left there is a cooker between worktops, there are cupboards, and at last, there is a frige between the worktop and the wall. Now that I am focusing on it, it is not a wall but rather an open partition, dividing the room in two : there is behind the 'diner-kitchen' a smaller and emptier room which seems to lead to the exit of the dwelling. The wall on my right only shows a shut door.

- Are you done ?

The young man looks at me, a smirk on his face.

- Huh ? But I was just-

He sits down and waits for me to sit in front of him before speaking again.

- Do you remember what happened yesterday ?

Yesterday ?

I blink, not knowing what to say. No matter how much I search my mind for memories of yesterday, I cannot remember anything. Anything at all, I cannot find any memory of my life... I grasp my head once again, the pain being more intense than ever. But still nothing.

- Hm ? You really don't remember ? It isn't something easily forgettable though...

I open my eyes and look at him.  He is a little bowed, resting his head on his hand. His smile has dissapeared

- ...Sorry...

He raises an eyebrow.

- Since when have you ever apologized for anything ?

Huh ?

- And if you want to apologize to anyone, it should be to Gin, not me...

- Gin ? Who is that ?

He straigtens and his eyes widen.

- Are you serious ?

- About what ?

He calms a little and stares at me.

- Don't tell me you don't remember anything...

I look at him in the eyes, not very sure of what to say.

- Well...
