Deja vu Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: Rewind

"Kiro...."

I am dreaming, I dreamed of meeting a fairy in the brink of Death and now I heard that someone is calling my name.

"Mr. Kiro Yougaza"

It continues to call my name but I do not have an idea who is it yet his voice sounds familiar.

'Did I arrive in heaven?'

I slowly open my eyes and I saw a figure of an old man holding a pamphlet in his hand and staring at me.

"Kiro..."

The voice whispers and I open my eyes and clearly see the person in my front. He resembles my teacher in literature II. His figure, his aspects even his beard. Everything is the same.

'Is this really heaven?'

"Kiroooo!!!!!!"

The voice continues to whispers, I look beside me and saw a girl with short grey hair wearing a white blouse with blue pattern on the side and has the symbol of hourglass on its sleeve whispering my name, I realized it seems like the uniform of the girl in my school.

Also her characteristic looks like Hirai. Yes, Hirai Kazumi, my best friend and classmate this year. I looked around and see my classmates' faces they are the same as if they are the originals.

"Ehem... Mr. Yougaza"

My teacher called me and I put my attention to him. I am still bewildered but I can discover that later, in the meantime I must answer his question or else I am doomed.

'Crap, I forgot my notes in Literature II. What should I do?'

I shouted in my mind and panic, sweat pours from my head towards to chin.

'Kiro, turn it into page 63 and read the third line'

Hirai whispers and give me hints.

'Thank you Hirai…you are my savior!'

I began to read the contents of the page Hirai said and that gives my teacher a satisfying answer and remark.

I sigh, after escaping an unexpected peril given by my teacher.

'But wait just what has happened here. Is this heaven or not. Arghhhh... I died right, so what am I doing here. I look at the clock to see the time and I am shocked to what I see'

I yelled at myself, I am confused as well as amazed. It looks like the heaven that I arrived at is my daily life. They say that heaven is a place for happiness only.

'So this is my heaven'

I asked again, everything I see is the exact replica of my classroom. The door, the blackboard as well as the teachers.

'Is heaven a manifestation of my memories but—?'

I inquired and tried to analyse what happened to me. If this a manifestation of my memories then—

'Why does it feel so exactly familiar and… odd?'

I doubted and look at the clock hanging above the green blackboard

[Time check—11:30, Friday]

'11:30?!'

"Whaaaaaaaa"

I suddenly shrieked out and my classmates including Hirai look at me. They are stunned and dumb founded because of that. But it passes by and I become a laughing stock in my classroom.

'What happened? It is not heaven nor hell, or the afterlife. Just what is this?

It feels like I come back to the time before I die.

Impossible such things can't exist. Or maybe that I die is just a dream yes…

it is a dream.

Hahahah...'

[Time check—almost 12:30, Friday]

I am very bewildered to what happened it feels like everything is similar or familiar, but I convince myself that is a dream.

'Yes all of it is a dream. How can that be, me comeback to life. Impossible…'

As I walk towards the gate of the school. I saw something, a small girl clad in white cloak with diamond-like eyes looking at me. I felt chills all over my body and she seems familiar.

'Yes…very familiar.'

I decided to ignore her and continue walking but I am stunned when I hear her words before I part ways with her.

"IF YOU CONTINUE WALKING THAT PATH YOU WILL DIE"

She said and I hear it very clear

'Is that a warning or just lame joke.

Really, I can't understand children these days.

Saying creepy stuffs in the public'

I sigh it off and ignore her words

'What would like to happen if I cross this gate'

But at the same time I felt tremor riding my veins. It feels like I will lose everything if I continue walking this path and it gives me goose bumps.

'How nostalgic, what can happen in a very pleasant day like this. Hahah…'

I convince myself and erase my worries. I tried to become positive and not to be creep out by the words of a small girl. I slowly walk exiting the gate. I felt coldness and doubt as I stepped my feet on the streets and when I am finally away from the school. I've felt that it is very far from me. Even though it is just one step away from me, it feels very long that I need to run in order to went inside and when I face the streets ready to go home.

…It happened very fast without giving a warning or such. I felt my body hit by something hard and thrown me a few meters away from the school making me lay on the ground. I saw my blood quickly flows from my body to the ground at the same time my head became painful and my body became numb.

'Just what happened? I die. ... then.. that girl is saying the truth and everything is not a dream. I have died once and come back to life and now I died again'

[Time check—12:30, Friday]

'I remember, yes this is the same to my dream. I lay on the ground while my classmates are calling to me. Then an ambulance will take me and—'

"What did I tell you?"

The small girl wrapped in white cloak with emerald hair appeared as I expected, pouting and irritated to me it seems, inside the ambulance where no one is there. She appeared and giving me lectures.

"You are really stubborn aren't you?"

She pouted and looks at me with worried and teary eyes. Then she sighed and shake her head

"It cannot be helped but let me give you one more chance"

She shouted and the golden light envelop me once again

'Why does this girl helps me and how did she do that?'

I asked in myself and observe her, her golden wings is much more beautiful than ever

"I know you have many questions to ask, and it can wait. ..but before that I must –"

As if answering my question in my head she stated then her golden wings blink and gives a flash of bright light. Light surrounds this place.

'So I will be come back from the dead. Then that means I am a zombie now. No, no, that cannot be happened but it is not impossible. As I have witness this child powers makes me believe that everything is possible and in order to know what happened to me. I must meet her at all cost. In order to continue living and have an explanation to all of this. I must meet her'

I decided as the light embrace me and bring me back to life

[Time check—7:00, Friday]

I open my eyes and I returned to my classroom.

'So everything is real, even the fact that I died is true but it looks like no one knows that. It seems like "she" has the ability to return the time a few hours before I die. Just who is that girl, is she a grim reaper or goddess but no matter who she is, I am thankful to her. That's because I am given the chance to live again…Not just once but twice.'

I whisper a thanks to that small girl who gives me a very great opportunity which is to live on.

'I began to become pretty observant to my surroundings and I realized that everything they have done is similar to what they have done in my dream.

It feels like I travelled time and that's how I answered my teachers correctly and perfectly but that's not the point. If it still going on to one path then it will only end to my death.

If I follow it until 12:30, then I will die again. I do not know how many times that girl will save me but I must prevent my death. That's right...

But how?

There are no instructions or any charm that can prevent my death.'

I analyse my situation and thought for a solution of the bizarre phenomenon I am stuck at.

'Tsk, tsk...

Only few minutes before 12:30. What should I do?'

I am chilled and confused.

'How can I avoid dying? ... whahhh....'

I am lost at thoughts and ideas. I bite my thumb and began to panic when someone tap me. It came from a grey haired girl with headband same age as me wearing a big round glasses and has blue eyes under the name of Hirai kazumi

"Kiro, are you ok?"

Hirai ask and her voice wake me up to reality then I grabbed her hand and smile afterwards

"Ki…ro..."

She blushed and hid her face with a notebook because of embarrassment

"Can—"

I said and kneel in her front and it makes our remaining classmates to be shocked and they began to yell

"Kiro!!!!"

She yelled as she call my name

"Can...we go h...o...me toget...her?"

I begged and it looks like I proposed or something.

'But I don't care what they think I want to live and I will do whatever it takes to live. So please Hirai. I know this is the first time I asked Hirai a favour like this and I know it is too embarrassing.

But it cannot be helped I am desperate to live. I begged you Hirai break this cycle and save me from death.'

But Hirai did not answer nor do anything, she just took her hand away from my hand and slowly walk backwards away from me then bow her head and said

"S...S.. Sorry! But I still have practice today"

She shouted and reject my offer. I am left alone dumb founded and hopeless.

'My only hope, it is gone! What should I do?'

I repeatedly said in my thoughts.

'What if I die again, will that girl save me again? Ahhh… How unlucky am I'

As I began to leave my classroom I cannot stop shaking and trembling while walking.

' I will die, I will die'

I kept on saying as if I am saying a chant or something.

'But something is wrong. I have not seen that girl in this way, in those times before I die she will appeared and give me warning or anything such. But she is not here. Did she give up on saving again?'

Whaaaaaaa what should I do, If I leave that gate, a car will hit me and will lead me to death—'

I am stunned for a second and began to shake as I thinking that I will die.

'What if I will not go home? That is right! That is the solution!'

I praised myself and b relieved out of my worries and began to walk from school and when I suddenly remember I did not bring my lunch box or have money in me.

'What should I eat today... well, I can at least last one day without eating and it looks like we do not have any exam today so I can relax my mind'

"Hey, Kiro..don't forget to review your lesson. Today we will have a long exam, and if you failed that, you will take remedial"

My teacher in Political Science said to me breaking my plans.

'So I need to go home, I need to pass that gate and eat then... whaaaaaaaaaaa...'

I began to tremble again. It looks like I don't have any choice.

'I just need to pray to the car that hit me will not be able to drive for today or another fairy will help me again'

I slowly walk towards the gate and my doubt is getting bigger and bigger. I close my eyes as I leave the gate and prepared for what will happen.

....

'Hmmm...nothing is happening.... no cars...no accidents ... nothing here'

"I AM ALIVE"

I shouted with all my might while raising my two hands like a jackpot winner in some lottery when all of a sudden someone shrieked beside me. She wears white blouse with blue pattern on the side and has the symbol of hourglass on its sleeve, has big round glasses and inside of it is seen her sky-like eyes in shocked. After few seconds, I realized I am familiar with her.

'Yes...very familiar that girl is unmistakably Hirai'
