PART 5: LAURENT'S DREAM
Arth
You look disappointed.
Raven
Why can't she recall me?
Arth
Does it make you glad that there was someone who remembers you after what you did?
Arth
And now that she tells you that she doesn't recognize you...
Arth
...you're disappointed.
Arth
What would you do if she still knows you?
Raven
She doesn't remember me now.
And if she does, I would keep her by my side.
It's really hard to lose someone who knows who you are.
Raven
That's what she said to me.
Arth
If I tell you that you're slowly losing your power...
Arth
... you will believe me?
Raven
Am I losing my Cupid's power?
Raven
What did I do wrong?
Raven
All this time, I thought I was doing a great job.
Raven
Are you going to replace me now?
Raven
What would happen to me then?
Arth
You're too easy to fool.
Raven
Sigh. He left already.
I open my eyes. My room is already dim.
I walk towards the door to switch on the lights.
The only way I can talk to him is by closing my eyes and calling him with my heart.
That's the only way in and out. Just like how we dream while we are sleeping.
Raven
The sun was already set.
Raven
Yet, I still can't find the answers I need.
Raven
Should I go in her dream and ask her?
I go back to where I was sitting and then close my eyes once again.
This time, I didn't call for Arth.
I navigate through different people's dreams until I saw her.
Laurent
There are so many animals here.
Laurent
No people. Much better.
Raven
Why can't you recognize me back then?
Raven
Do you remember me now?
Laurent
But why don't you have a black around your eyes?
Laurent
The panda can bark!
Laurent
Perhaps it's a dog.
Raven
Laurent, look at me.
Raven
Can't you recall who I am?
Laurent
Oh cute puppy, don't bark at me.
Laurent
Achuchu. Come here baby.
I step back when she starts talking to me as if I'm a puppy.
She even tries to pinch my cheeks that's why I distance myself away from her.
Laurent
Don't run from me, puppy!
She clicks her fingers then a real puppy pops out from nowhere.
That distracts Laurent from going near me.
Rechelle
Why did you come to her dream if you're going to ask her that?
Rechelle
Why can't you ask it personally?
Raven
If I can then why not.
Rechelle
You're so stupid.
Rechelle
You are in her dream, of course, she cannot recognize you here.
Rechelle
Also, she can't answer you naturally.
Raven
What does she see me as?
Rechelle
Isn't it obvious?
Rechelle
A puppy she wants to pet.
She points to Laurent who is now petting the puppy earlier.
Rechelle
Probably it's my purpose to be here.
Raven
Are you the one who is gonna replace me?
Rechelle
I don't want to be a replacement for someone.
Rechelle
Perhaps better than you.
Rechelle
Are you interested in her?
Rechelle
She isn't hard to love.
Rechelle
It's just that, it's hard for her to love someone.
Raven
What do you know about Laurent and me.
Rechelle
I just saw your blurry character in her dreams some months ago.
Rechelle
And now you're here doing that stupid stunts.
Rechelle
Whatever you did here, she won't recall it.
Rechelle
Maybe a glimpse but not all.
Rechelle
You will just confuse her.
Rechelle
Gotta go. I'm dreaming too.
Rechelle
Just remember, I'm just no one.
Rechelle
Whatever your intention is, don't forget that I'm watching.
Rechelle
Hmm. You're not sure.
Rechelle
Make your intention clear before making your step.
That's what the last words she said before she disappears.
