CHAPTER 8:

As the school trip ends, everything went back to normal. Yuffie came back, while Zack and Aerith suddenly disappeared. But what is not normal is that Cloud is frequently absent.

"What a day" Tifa yawned.

Suddenly, their class representative approaches Tifa. "Tifa, can you do me a favor?"

"what is it class rep?"

"can you give this papers to Cloud personally? He said he needed it today but then he's absent so…"

"its okay… I'll do it"

Tifa then went to Cloud's house but Cloud is not at home. The maid give her the address of their company so that Tifa can personally give the papers to Cloud.

As Tifa arrive at the place, she saw a large building in front. She kept on staring at it when image flashes in her mind…it is a building which is the same as the one in front of her. She shakes her head and decided to ignore it. "right! Have to give this to Cloud!"

"w-what's t-this?" Tifa's heart beats faster as she went inside the building. Its as if the building is too familiar with her that she ride the elevator without asking in information desk and push the 20, indicating the 20th floor of the building.

'what am I doing… why is my body move on its own?' Tifa thought asshe alight the elevator and went straight to the door in her right side indicating the president's office. She stares at it and was shock when the door opens and seeing Cloud.

"Tifa?" Cloud asked but Tifa remains silent "Tifa?"

"C-Cloud?" Tifa says as she recovers herself.

"What are you doing here?"

"Class rep asked me to give this to you personally." Tifa handed the papers to Cloud.

Cloud stares at Tifa for a moment then sigh. "Thank you… You may leave now Tifa…"

'Cloud?' Tifa thought to asked him what was wrong but decided to go as she herself feels uncomfortable that time. She nodded and walked away silently.

At Tifa's house, she decided to take a bath after arriving from Cloud's office. She then started thinking about the things that had happened. 'my body moves on its own… its like I know that place… but it's the first time I had gone to Cloud's company…'

Suddenly, her conversation with Zack popped in her mind.

'what if the one that you believe the most is the one that hide everything about the real you? Will you keep trusting him?'

"Is he pertaining to Cloud?... the real me?" she shake her head in frustration. "no! don't think about it Tifa! Cloud is…. Cloud is… my everything… and I trust him… more than anyone else… in this world…"

'thank you… you may leave now'

"but Cloud's weird… he can't look at me properly this days…" Tifa then smiles "I should just personally asked him what's bothering him.."

Tifa then dressed quickly with the idea of going back to Cloud's house. She the run outside but because of hurry, her foot slides in a block and then there is a loud thump. It was then that Tifa loses her consciousness...
