Chapter-3 [Dream Or Reality]

“You have to protect them…”

This voice roused her from her sleep, and she stirred in her bed. The sky outside her window was a dark, dismal black, and yet the thin gusts of wind were still finding their way through the window which she had neglected to close before falling asleep. It was late in the night, far past the hour when her mother usually called her down for dinner - but where was her mother now? Confused, she rose from her bed and wrapped herself up in her thick blanket for warmth. As she made her way to the window, the sweet scent returned, as if to signal something special or peculiar about this night. After closing it tightly, she descended the stairs and found her mother, watching TV on the sofa.

: She went and sat with her mother, asking: “What happened to Mrs. Lu? You didn't nag me to eat my dinner today.” Her mother replied, “What are you talking about? You already ate your dinner today. Didn't you say you had an important project yesterday and that you wanted to sleep early? Why are you pulling pranks in the middle of the night? Go to bed.”

Lusi was terrified not because she had heard something unusual, but because she had forgotten to complete her project and had slept for too long. She said nothing to her mother and quickly rushed back to her room, taking out her laptop and beginning her work. Hours later, when the sun was just beginning to rise, she was almost finished--but when she went to save her project, a notification popped up on the screen that chilled her to the bone: "This file already exists on this device. Do you want to replace this file?"

Lusi was stunned when she saw that everything on her computer matched her project unconsciously. The content and slides had been crafted with her own words, almost like she had written them and then forgotten about it. She asked herself if she could have amnesia, as it seemed impossible that she could forget about such an important task. Nevertheless, the evidence was clear before her - even if it was too big of a coincidence to believe. She was fearful, yet baffled, as she realized that this mysterious occurrence could not be easily explained.

After ruminating on the strange occurrence for a while, Lusi rose from her bed and went to take a shower. As the water ran over her body, she noticed the mole on her left side. Suddenly, she was reminded of the girl from her dream - the girl who had a mole in the same place. While her mole was ordinary looking, the other girl's mole had been so beautiful, it made her heart ache. She couldn't explain why she felt so anxious; she just knew that something was deeply unsettling her.

After pondering upon this perplexing situation for some time, Lusi got up from her bed and went to take a shower. As she was getting ready, she noticed the mole on her left side and found herself reminded of the girl from her dream - the one who had a similar mole in the same spot. Her own mole may have been far more ordinary looking than the other's, yet the sight of it filled her with an inexplicable sense of melancholy. She wondered if perhaps the only difference between them was the appearance of their mole, and that realization further deepened her confusion.

A few moment later...

She found herself in an unfamiliar place, but that pain remained, she was on her knee and she was crying, a man's sword was on the left side of her chest… blood was dripping from her chest… That wasn't the worst feeling, it was something else that hurt her… She couldn't see that man's face because of her blur vision from crying… but she could feel that man's coldness…

She was feeling disappointed… but it wasn't her feeling!!
