Chapter three: I remember
Three days after the concert, Anna found herself back in their college dormitory, which, in actuality, was a newly-built ten-roomed mansion owned by her family. Anna and Pilica were the only ones residing there aside from the maid, drivers, guards, and other household help; since Pilica's parents were associates of hers, they were given the house as a dormitory, located only three kilometers from the University they were both in. She gazed at the note-shaped pendant hanging from a silver neck lace on her dresser. She couldn't get it. Why did that Yoh guy feel so familiar? And the flash of the heart-shaped locket came from her memory, like a slide on a projector.
That incident between them was kept a secret, not even her best friend Pilica knew. She let out a sigh, as she looked out the window, thinking of what that encounter meant at all.
From a red speeding convertible, Yoh stared outward, as did his twin. That…girl. That blonde girl…she seemed so familiar yet she was a stranger. But—back at the concert, he felt himself perform better when he saw her at the front-row seats. Was it really love at first sight? He absentmindedly twirled the chain that held his precious locket, wondering if he'll ever see the girl again. Is she really who he's been looking for all these years?
Her train of thought was interrupted as Pilica burst into her room. "ANNA!!!"
Anna's left eye twitched. "Keep it down. I'm not deaf, you know."
Pilica smiled and grabbed Anna's wrist. "I've got something to show you…come on!"
She pulled her forcefully, jerking her out of her seat and dragged her as she ran downstairs.
"Ta-da!!" she said as Anna finally regained her composure, showing her….
"…a car?" she asked coldly.
Plica pouted. "No! I mean, yes, it is, but can you not see who's in it?"
"Four guys..." she said in a low tone. She recognized them immediately. Oversoul.
In front of her was a roomy red convertible with Ren behind the wheel, her best friend Pilica's brother, Horo on the seat beside Ren, and the twins at the back.
"…So?" she casually raised a brow at her friend, obviously confused. "You showed me four guys in a car. Can I go back now?"
Yoh's face lit as he heard the cold voice on his side. That girl. Pilica called her Anna.
Anna.
Her.
"Brother…", he whispered to his twin sitting quietly beside him, "..I've found her. It's really her."
His doubts have been erased. She really was the girl she was looking for. Hao smirked at him.
"Good for you, then.", he said as Pilica's whines sounded in the background.
