"I was attacked countless times. I didn't even know why I was being attacked, and because of that I developed this paranoia. Whenever I went out, I always used to avoid people's gaze. I have lived my entire life being scared, because I had power. What about you? Do you feel scared of power?" he asked, gazing at the moon.
Even though he was looking at the moon, his gaze somehow felt lonely.
"It's not like I don't feel scared, but I can do far greater sins than you to protect them"
He moved his gaze from the moon to me and said, "Beware of the world, it's a nasty place"
"What sins have you done, grandpa?"
"There are things that are better left untold"
After that, we talked for a while.
He told me many things about mom and Daulla.
It was getting late, so he told me to go to sleep.
After taking him to his bed, I went back to my room.
I feel so sleepy hearing all that talk.
[Go sleep then, no touching phone and laptop]
"What if Elena had messaged me?"
[She hasn't, nor Lier and Serah]
"No one misses me"
[They all miss you]
I lay down on the bed and closed my eyes.
Before I realized, I was asleep.
'Aaaaa!'
I heard a loud scream. But I know it was in my mind.
[Are you okay, Das?]
"I am not...okay"
I can't help but tremble.
"What time is it?"
[It's 2:22 AM]
I glanced around the room.
"Daulla is not here?"
[She is patrolling around the palace]
"What was that scream?"
[I don't know. There was a sudden disturbance in your system]
"It was one of those screams and whispers"
[I don't know about that]
"But it stopped when...when...huh? When did it stop?"
[Das?]
"It was when...the...we were coming out of that hole...why don't I remember it?"
[I wasn't around, so I don't know what you are talking about]
"Check my memories"
[Are you sure?]
"Yes"
[Das, The thing is...]
"What?"
[When you fist bumped with that little boy, you received many memory fragments]
"Memory fragments? Part of the memories?"
[Yes]
"And you are telling me that now?"
[I was going to tell you at that time, but you started yelling]
"Sorry"
[It's okay. I realize your feelings]
"So what are those memory fragments?"
[I can't access them]
"Use master protocol"
[That's not it. They are encrypted]
"Memories are encrypted? How?"
[I don't know]
"Have you tried decrypting them?"
[I did. I can't decrypt them]
"And the reason behind that is?"
[They have zero value]
"They are empty?"
[Not exactly, but their value is Zero]
"Does that mean those memories are not mine?"
[It is a possibility. The other possibility is that these memories are some kind of dreams]
"You mean the memories of dreams?"
[Yes]
"But...oh! Now that I remember, I have had these strange visions too"
[Like?]
"I once saw...Once...I saw...dead bodies everywhere. It was some kind of hall room. Blood was flowing everywhere, and Elena was...she was standing in front of me, holding her sword with pure hatred in her eyes"
[Das!]
"I know. I know. It was just some thought of mine, but I don't want her to look at me like that"
[Remember, your thoughts can turn into visions, and then later stored as memories. So don't worry about this kind of thing. Elena will never hate you]
"I won't let her hate me"
[Should I disable some of your body functions so you can sleep quietly?]
"No, it's fine"
I closed my eyes.
"Hey Lily"
[Hm?]
"Can you talk with me until I fall asleep?"
[With p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e]
"Let's talk about happy things"
[Okay. You start first]
"You know, the first time we met. I found you very annoying, and I wanted to smack you very badly"
[Is that so? Well, for me. The first time we met, I couldn't think of anything. I didn't have my own thinking or consciousness back then. But when you touched me for the first time, I was reborn. You gave me life. I am really thankful for that]
"That's my line. Thanks for being with me. Thanks for loving me"
[I should thank you. You love a program like me, even though I don't deserve to be loved]
"If Elena heard that, she would be angry at you, you know?"
[She already got angry]
"Is that so?"
[Remember When Elena and I met for the first time?]
"You mean when you both shooed me?"
[Yes! At that time we talked about many things]
"I see"
[The first thing Elena asked was, 'What do you love about Das' and I replied with "The thing you love about him' and she smiled and said, 'You pass'. After that she told me some things about herself]
"She is great, isn't she?"
[She is awesome]
I want to go to the beach.
Elena said she wants to go to the real beach.
I will buy the biggest beach in the country.
Talking about beach...
"Hey Lily, my dreams are becoming memories too. So is it possible that my system alters what happened in real to something else?"
If yes, then I can't trust my memories.
[It is possible, but I don't think your system will do that]
"I see"
[Why did you ask it?]
"Well I, I had this strange dream once, which I forgot when I woke up, but remembered again after some time"
[What kind of dream?]
"In that dream, I was at the beach of LWO, and Elena was sitting there. We talked about many things, and when she said 'It's a dream', the dream cut off"
[Were you worried about something that day?]
"Well yes"
[So, your system showed you the possibility of what might happen according to your past memories]
"That's kind of scary"
[It is]
"What if this is a dream too?"
[It is not! Don't ever say that again!]
"Okay"
[And don't worry about your memory stuff. Leave them to me. I will try to check them]
"Thanks. Good night"
[Good night]
"I love you"
[I-I love you too]
I couldn't help but imagine Lily's embarrassed face.
[Don't laugh! That wasn't fair. You said it out of the blue]
"But I do love you"
[I know. Now sleep, or I will force you to sleep]
"Good night"
