Ren here.
Sometimes it sucks enough when you're forced to remember something that's really been forgotten. Not that I really want to forget it! It's just .. they just disappeared and I can't find them back.
My memories and my past are like dust blown by the wind.
That is, there is no.
— Ren Gill's.

Back to the present.
Here I am, sitting tied up in a very sturdy wooden chair and unable to move in the least. Right in front of me, there was a girl I knew very well and recently we talked to each other a lot at school. He is the "Diva of the school" as well as the Chairman of OSIS, Wulan.
"What are you doing here?" I looked down to hide the expression on my face that was being mixed.
Despite being asked, Wulan remained silent and stood in front of me.
Is it a world silent day? Seriously, all of a sudden everyone became mute like this made me confused myself.
Before long, Wulan moved my head to her face. He wanted me to see his face. That flat face, it looked very serious and from his eyes, he looked deep into the abyss through my eyes.
With her serious face, Wulan said, "Did Ren remember me?"
"You're Wulan, right?" I immediately answered him with a question to ascertain the identity of the other person.
He— Wulan— shook his head several times with a quite disappointed expression. Even so, he still braced himself to look back at my eyes and ascertain the truth of every word I said to him. And lastly, the thing I most strongly did not want to see from the Wulan that I knew, tears flowed slowly from both eyes of Wulan.
Although I don't know why, according to my intuition this is all the fault of someone who is in front of him i.e., I.
Not wanting to waste any time, I decided to speak even though life was at stake.
"Why—!!!"
Plaque!!!
He slapped my face very hard.
After which, Wulan caught my collar very tightly and said, "Give him back."
"Him? Who do you mean?—!!!"
Once again he slapped me in the face, this time harder than before.
You know, I'm not a boxing bag! Seriously, stop hitting my face! I want to shout at him, but the current conditions are still not right to do that.
Now I have to focus on every word or action he does. Wrong for a bit, my life would be at stake. Moreover, this is a reality not a visual novel game or anything like that.
I'm not a protagonist in the whole novel, where he will talk and his opponent will listen to "preaching no jutsu" until he repents himself. Dia— Wulan who is currently in front of me— is not a person who will want to listen to every speech from me now. You see, I don't know if we ever met somewhere.
Wulan spoke again, but in a way that was not like her.
"Return in .. a .... "
Free, he continued like this until I really couldn't bear to say rude anymore. If you want something from me, try to make me understand first! In fact, I wouldn't even understand even if he explained everything because of that matter.
There have been some feelings I felt from Wulan since she turned into now.
Anger, confusion, regret and also.
Sounds weird and pretty pretentious, but to be honest that's how I feel about him. You may call me a self-styled ESPER, I will accept that title without burden and regret. I try to understand, not remember the past as he wants.
"He's gone, the man you're looking for .. nothing to me." My voice was weak enough to tell the bitter truth.
Hearing him, Wulan could only remain silent. Despite not seeing her face directly, I think she had swallowed a very bitter pill from me. Wulan was silent and did not move a single bit from her position.
"Why can .. so this .... " Bluff, Wulan's consciousness seems pretty bad.
"Stop repeating the same words, you have to accept reality and now, I am the one in front of you .. not the one you've been looking for all this time." Without reducing the pressure from the bitter words coming out of my mouth, I continued to mentally attack Wulan.
"But ... he is very ra—!!!"
"Righten yourself, damn it!" I screamed as I smashed my head into Wulan's head.
He was immediately knocked down and unconscious.
"Ugh, am I outrageous enough?" While complaining, I let go of the bond that had been holding me back.
Finally, I was able to break free from Wulan's wishes which was quite annoying.
It's not that I hate him, it's just that I don't like the way he does.
Could it be that he was just the wrong person? I don't know ....
