A Path


Last Time

She stared at me for a second and then said "Yes, we did know each other in the past."

"When?"

"In different lives."

"What?" I almost yelled questioningly.


Present

"W-what do you mean by, 'Past Lives?'" I asked, partially eager to learn the answer, but also partially fearful of a horrible dream come true. When I say "Horrible Dream" I think of the time when I had a dream, about Himeko, and I, but we weren't in a place I recognized until I awoke. We were inside one of the rooms on the second floor, the one with the grand piano in it. The horrible thing about that dream was that I couldn't control myself, because in reality, the dream was real, and it was during one of our past lives, the last one, to be precise.

I did in fact rape Himeko Kurusugawa.

That dream frightens me deeply. No, it doesn't frighten me; fright is too small a description. That dream, utterly and completely, terrifies me.

"Chikane-Chan! Chi-Ka-Ne-Chan! Wake up from dream land!" Himeko tapped my head lightly and my eyes refocused on her.

"Huh?" I asked, stupidly.

Himeko looked a little frustrated that I was lost in my thoughts while she was talking.

"Never mind." She grabbed my hand, and fell backwards onto the bed, pulling me with her, which made me land above her.

"Now, about that reminding…" She giggled at my confused, flustered, and blushing face.

I pushed myself off of her, ignoring the strange feeling that made me want to tear off Himeko's clothes and take her right there. She propped herself up on her elbows, looking at me with a sad look, but I could feel she was thinking naughty thoughts behind it.

"What's wrong?" She asked, with the most innocent voice she could muster. Even though you could tell she really wanted this, very badly.
