She had been in her room all day. Something she was used to, but people kept checking on her. Ema, her mom, even her dad gave her a call.. which was weird.
Shouldn’t they have moved on by now? Why weren’t they surprised that she was here? Shouldn’t there be so many more.. questions?
Then her phone rang- a tune she wasn’t familiar with, but it felt comforting. It wasn’t her ringtone, but it was the pastel yellow phone that had been by her bed when she woke up. She somehow had the same password as this person, and.. everything felt like it was hers, even if it wasn’t.
She picks up. It was nozomi.
“Hey! I’m done with after school classes. Do you wanna meet at mine, or in SEKAI?”
The girl freezes. Her voice- it’s like nothing ever happened. But it did, it had to have happened- she knows what she did-
“Ah- yeah! Sorry, spaced for a bit. I’ll meet you at yours, nozo! Are we gonna walk Moss, too?”
“Yknow what? Yeah. It’s nice out today. Meet me at the front, and we can go to the woods. Sound okay..?”
Nozomi’s voice was hesitant- as if she had a question on her mind. The girl tried to brush it off, and keep her cheer in her voice as she replied.
“Yeah! Sounds great. I’ll bring some snacks and see you there~!”
She hangs up before nozomi can reply, sighing. This all makes her uneasy, and yet.. so comforting, so familiar, it feels wrong to take it.
Everything feels wrong, today.
