Farah's POV

The last thing I remember was the conversation between Hana and me. The next time I open my eyes, I appear in the black space again.

-I have tried many times last few days and I couldn't go into this space. (Farah)

I look around and find the three cocoons in the middle of the space.

-Why would I appear here again so suddenly? (Farah)

I place my hands on my chest and think about the current situation.

-What should I do? (Farah)

While I am standing in this place, a terrible black aura comes out of my body.

-Hot! (Farah)

I feel like my body is burning. Something from deep inside me is going to burst out.

-Everyone... (Farah)

I can't stand the terrible pain coming from the heat and falling to the ground.

-It's not good, White...Farah. (Hale)

There is a hand wrapping around my body and hugging me. The heat disperses just from a hug.

-Ahhh? (Farah)

I turn my attention to the one who hugs me and finds a familiar person.

-Even if this space is not the reality, I don't want you to be dirty, Farah. (Hale)

-Hale! (Farah)

-I'm back, Farah. (Hale)

She reaches to my head and pats my head. I don't know why, but I feel her presence is much bigger even when we have the same height.

-I'm sorry... Because of me... (Farah)

-Idiot! (Hale)

Hale suddenly flicks my forehead.

-Awuuuu! (Farah)

I instinctively hold my forehead because of her sudden attack.

-Why did you do that, Hale? (Hale)

She sighs and flicks my head again.

-Because I am witnessing the dumbest person in the world in front of me. (Hale)

I understood she referred to me.

-Right? (Farah)

Hale places her hands on my head and pat it.

-Farah! (Hale)

-Yes? (Farah)

-You shouldn't think about complicated things. (Hale)

-What do you mean by that? (Farah)

Hale looks at me with a bitter face.

-You should live positively and live for yourself only, Farah. (Hale)

-But you guys... (Farah)

They are stuck in this black space and can't communicate with anyone aside from me.

-I want to free you guys. (Farah)

-We don't want to, Farah! (Hale)

-Eh? (Farah)

-Do you think we find happiness in the outside world, Farah? (Hale)

-There are many people good out there, Hale. I think they can... (Farah)

Hale pushes me out and stares at my face. She shouts at me.

-No, Farah. (Hale)

She places both of her hands on my cheeks and forces me to stare at her.

-You are just getting lucky this time, Farah. The world outside is not dreamy like you thought. (Hale)

-Yeah... (Farah)

-Four of us don't really like the outside world at all, Farah. (Hale)

-Eh? Why? (Farah)

I can't understand her thought since you could meet many good people out there.

-You don't seem to believe me, Farah.

-I... (Farah)

-Since we could keep our memory, we knew about the darkest face of the others, Farah. (Hale)

I...I know nothing since most of my memory was sealed by Hale.

-We are happy just by living here and staying by your side, Farah. (Hale)

Hale approaches me and kisses me on the lip.

-Uhmmm! (Farah)

Before I could react, Hale's lips had already left mine.

-Fuwaaaa! (Farah)

I felt I was always in a passive situation.

-I like the usual you better, Farah. (Hale)

I try to push her out, so I can hide my embarrassed face. Was Hale this impressive in the past?

-Hale... (Farah)

-Fufufu, you are cute as always. (Hale)

Hale pulls me in and hugs me again.

-My happiness is just like that, Farah. I feel so happy just by playing with you. (Hale)

I don't understand why people find happiness in teasing me, though.

-The outside is full of cruelty and unfairness. We don't really want to let you go outside. (Hale)

Hale looks away and talks with an annoyed voice.

-If only the other three agree with my idea to imprison you here forever with us. (Hale)

-Ehh? (Farah)

Hale pats my head and appeases me.

-I'm just kidding, Farah. (Hale)

I pout at Hale.

-Moh! (Farah)

Though from the tone of her voice, I never thought she made a joke like that.

-It was a joke, Farah. (Hale)

I nod and answer her.

-Well. I believe... Wait? (Farah)

-You only realized just now, Farah. I have read your thought from the start until now. (Hale)

That's understandable since she resolved my worries right away.

-So, you don't have to worry about that problem anymore, Farah. (Hale)

But still, I want to play with them in reality. It's just a selfish wish of mine.

-Well, there is one solution for that, Farah. (Hale)

-Eh? (Farah)

-We could go into reality with a skill of yours. (Hale)

-What do you mean? Could you explain it to me? (Farah)

-I have checked through the skills of yours, Farah. The Doppelganger skill of yours can make it possible. (Hale)

-Ah, I almost forget about that skill. (Farah)

-If you improve that skill, you could make that dream turn into reality one day. (Hale)

I hold my palm and make a goal.

-I will try! (Farah)

-That's the spirit, Farah. (Hale)

-But Hale? (Farah)

-Yes? (Hale)

-What's wrong with the other three? (Farah)

I point at those cocoons and ask Hale.

-Ah, those three need to take a rest. Those trees will wake up soon, so you don't need to worry about them. (Hale)

I feel so relieved just by hearing that.

-Hah! (Farah)

I relax my body and lean against Hale.

-Take a break, Farah. I will reseal memory while you are in here. (Hale)

-I... (Farah)

My consciousness is gradually fading.

-Please be happy forever, Farah. I don't want to see you be the one suffering most in the five of us again. (Hale)
