Epilogue:
When I told Madison about my theories- about there being other versions of us in each dimension,
There was anther theory I didn't discuss with her.
At least, I didn't tell her until after the boys left.
See, I think that when everything's balanced,
And everyone is where they're supposed to be,
I think that our 'twins' so to speak,
Meet the same people we do,
Just their dimension's version of that person.
I think sometimes maybe that person,
Has a different name,
But it's still the same person.
And if we date, or marry, a guy
In another dimension, my 'twin' dates, or marries,
That version of the same guy,
At the same moment that I do.
Alex:
I wasn't happy and I was still frowning even when I got to Japan. My parents had just called me to meet them in Japan. Apparently, they're staying there a bit longer than planned and they want me with them. I just left the guy that I am sure I kind of loved and what do they do? Ship me to Japan without a care in the world.
"Hey cheer up," Madison whispered. My scowl softened, at least they let me bring Madison along…scratch that- at least her parents let her come.
Madison was a bit happier than I was. But I knew that deep inside- she was just as sad as I was. She just didn't show it as clearly. She hid behind her laughter and jokes. I hid behind my cold exterior and emotionless mask.
"Alex! Check this out!"
She pointed to the cherry blossom trees. I smiled faintly. Then we saw the sign- written in English, Welcome, Madison and Alex!
"I take it that's the guy your parents sent," Madison chuckled. I shrugged and we headed over.
We stopped in front of a large building and got out of the limo/car. We both stared at it.
"You're parents…?"
"No," I explained, "this is where they're doing business at."
"A hospital?"
"Yes. A partnership between businesses."
Madison stuck out her tongue. I glared slightly and she stuck it back in.
"Can I go…explore then? Why you meet up with your parents?"
"Will you find your way back?"
"Eventually."
I sighed, good enough,
"Very well."
She smiled and happily left the hospital- I wish I could leave too. Mom and Dad greeted me with smiles,
"Alex! So good to see you!"
Dad gave me a brief hug,
"We have someone we want you to meet."
I looked at them confused.
"Our business partners have a son your age. And we agreed to let him show you around," Dad said. They stepped aside just a guy my age walked forward. He was a bit tall, had black hair, and dark eyes covered by glasses. He looked at me a bit coldly, but…no way.
"My name is Shadō Kingu Ootori," he said formally. I looked at him slightly amused. He sighed,
"Yes, I am well aware my name means Shadow King."
"Please to meet you," I greeted and I meant it.
Kyoya Ootori, you left me. But now I met this dimension's you and how ironic that his name is Shadow King. He led me out of the building and away from my parents just as my phone vibrated.
"Pardon me," I said politely as I looked at the message.
From Madison-
You'll never guess who I just met.
I looked to Shado/Kyoya amused and then back at my phone.
To Madison-
Takashi.
From Madison-
HOW DID YOU KNOW?
To Madison-
Lucky guess…and I just met my Kyoya.
I looked back to Shado/Kyoya,
"Where shall we?"
He looked at me a bit coldly, but then his expression softened as if he was thinking he just met the love of his life. Maybe he's not that far off.
"Perhaps…a horror movie?"
Oh boy.
