Italic = dream
'….' = thoughts
It was dark. But I could manage to hear some loud noise. Maybe it was more like yelling and shouting voices. They were all girl's voices, a high pitched one that could broke the glass. I could only hear bits and pieces of it. Slowly, images started to appear. It showed two girls ordering around with an angry tone to a beautiful maiden –covered in ashes and stain- who were sitting on the floor. Strangely they all wear a fluffy gown like in the medieval era movies, though the maiden only used a ragged and tattered cloth. It was obviously clear that those two girls were bullying the other one. 'Hmph! How meanie! Anyway, what kind of dream is this one? Haven't had these kind of dreams since that day…'. But everything went black again after that single thought.
Flashback
A year ago.
My name is Mai Taniyama. I'm an orphan and a cheerful student in blooming age. Anyway, I'm 18 years old now, and still single. Though I wouldn't had the time to think about it anyway. These days I work part time everyday till late at night to get by each day, and also to pay the school fees. It's been a long time since I last saw my friends from SPR since we were disbanded a year ago. I've kept their addresses, but I haven't had the guts to call them. And also, I'm busy with job. These job doesn't pay me as much as when I work at SPR, but it's enough for my living expenses. That's why, I can't even think about other things beside earning money right now. My eyes would turned green after all this perhaps. Even if there are some boys who have been staring at me and confessing to me since I grew my hair out. But no matter what, there is always one person who keep appearing in my head. It was Naru.
Last time, after the lake incident, knowing his secret, confessing to him, and all of that embarrassing stuff, I kept thinking who I actually like. Naru harshly told me who do I actually like. Him or Gene? That question really pierced my heart. I only thought that Naru was a kind person because the dream Naru would always smile and help me. That's what I thought. But it was silly of me to think that smile meant kindness. But actually it's not. I should've realize that deep in my heart I've always know that the real Naru's kindness. He was always protecting me in an unnoticeable way. Or maybe I was just too dense after all. At the Ryokuryou high school case, he used his power, knowing that he would collapse after that to save us from the rubbles. He especially come looking for me when I was gone. Not only that, when I was scared at that time in the tunnel, he showed me a magic trick –which is so not like him- just to make me forget my scared feeling. There are so many times he had dove right in just to save me. And it was that side of him that I actually fell in love with. Also, I should've realized that Naru isn't the type to show such an angelic smile (lol). Though now he was in England to bury and mourn his brother, calming his foster parents and take care of stuff. Eugene Davis, the dream Naru who always smile at me, Naru's twin brother, the one he thought I fell in love with, is dead. I don't know how long Naru would be at England, though he promised to come back. Maybe many years after.
Or so I thought. He is now standing right in front of me, leaning on the brick wall his arm crossed in front of his chest with his usual black suit that complement his white skin and beautiful face. He attracted all the attention around me, especially girls who pass by him giggling with their hand covering their mouth trying to be cute. I ran to him in a hurry and tripped almost crashed onto him. "Naru! You're back!"
Naru's POV
I saw Mai running towards me quickly, not noticing a stone in front of her. As usual, she tripped again. 'She's still so funny as ever' I shook my head in response. I didn't realize the danger I was in. She came flying at me and landed on me. "Are you okay Mai? Be careful". She just went grinning and smiling so widely at me. "Naru! You're back!" She said. "Yes I'm back Mai. And so are the SPR office. Will you join us again? We've got another case right now"
"Yes! I would love too!".
"Come tomorrow at 9 then"
"... Mai. You have grown a bit" I gave her a smirk. She blushed at the compliment. Indeed she had change a bit. Now that I see it, she was more... Beautiful. And I came to notice that some male students were glancing at her. "Let's go Mai. I'll take you home" I just grabbed her hands and pull her away to the car parked outside.
Writer's POV
At nine exactly Mai had stand in front of the old SPR building. She stands nervously, reaching the door knob and turn it slowly. "MAI!" All the SPR team inside were scrambling in a hurry to grab Mai and hugged her in turn. Even Masako. Naru and Lin were just looking as usual. "Okay, let's continue the reunion later. We've got a case" Naru closed his book with a light 'tap' sound. Everyone else immediately went quiet and sat down on the sofa.
"The client name is Katsuragi Eijirou. A politician. His wife called me in England. They said that at night there are weird sounds all over the house, the stove would suddenly turned on, there are always a puddle of water at the entrance way. And so on. We'll be going at 7 tomorrow. And you all agree to join the SPR, right? That's all" and then Naru just walked away to his office leaving everyone else in the room speechless.
There! Finished my first chapter. Was that too short? Wait for the next chapter. I'll tell you the other characters. And maybe Naru will get himself a new rival?
