"We'd better get back," Poppy said. She then looked at Lily for a moment. "Do you still want to come with me?"
Lily nodded. She then pulled Nakamori's hand and grasped it tightly. "Come on. We have to go home soon."
***
Nakamori opened his eyes slowly. Blinking his eyes repeatedly and trying to recover his consciousness. For a moment he tried to remember everything that happened and once, his memory had recovered he realized something that everything had returned to the way it was, before he was thrown into that strange dimension.
As he raised his hand, he found a message clutched in there. A small piece of paper was tucked into his hand. He unfolded the wad of paper and found an inscription that read like this.
After you find this message, please rest in peace. Lily and I will see you again, at a different time until then, please take good care of yourself. I promise I will take care of you. And I also apologize for causing you trouble. I'm really sincerely sorry about this.
After reading the message, Nakamori just sighed. He had too many strange things happen to him. Right now he was too dizzy to think about something so heavy. For some reason it felt like he wanted to go to bed now.
Sleep... of course. Too many strange things had happened to him and now he really needed to rest.

"Why do you keep pacing back and forth?" scolded Graiss when she saw Regen looking panicked. It was obvious that the young man seemed to be agitated.
Regen smiled wryly. He wanted to conceal his anxiety from Graiss, but it seemed like Graiss could pick up on it.
"Did something happen?" the little girl asked curiously. "You look very uneasy."
"I don't know why I feel so uneasy." Regen had to admit that her heart was not quite at ease.
Graiss looked at Regen attentively, recognizing that something was making the young man uncomfortable. "Tell me about it," Graiss pleaded gently, trying to encourage the young man.
Regen pondered for a moment before finally sighing. "Actually, I don't really understand my own feelings either," he said honestly. "It all started with a strange dream I had a few nights ago. They felt so real that I felt like I was living in two different worlds."
"What dream about?" asked Graiss, trying to understand Regen's situation.
Regen shook his head slowly. "I couldn't remember the details clearly after waking up, but something was stuck in my mind. It was as if there was a sign or a message that wanted to be conveyed to me, but I didn't know what it meant."
Graiss grasped Regen's hand tightly. "Maybe it was just a dream, or maybe there's a meaning behind it. We'll never know for sure. But clearly, I'm here for you, and we can find out more if we need to."
Regen smiled gently, feeling grateful to have a friend like her. "Thank you, Graiss. I feel relieved to be able to talk to you about this."
"Whatever happens, we face it together," Graiss said firmly.
While taking a walk by the lake, Regen felt his heart become lighter. Having someone who listened and understood him made him feel stronger in the face of such uneasy feelings. There may indeed be many mysteries in life, including the meaning of the dreams that came to haunt him. But with a friend like Graiss, Regen believes she can face everything better.
"Why don't we go for a walk later this afternoon?" Graiss offered to Regen. She hoped that by going for a walk, Regen's mood would be a little better.
Regen smiled and accepted Graiss' offer. "Of course I will," she said excitedly as she ruffled the girl's hair.
***
They walked side by side by the lake, the calm water reflecting the light of the afternoon sun. Regen felt that this natural atmosphere calmed his chaotic mind. He felt lucky to have Graiss as a friend who was always there in difficult times like this.
"But, this morning I felt something strange, Graiss," Regen continued, trying to tell more. "When I woke up, I felt as if someone was watching my steps. It was so foreign that it gave me goosebumps."
Graiss listened attentively. "Maybe that feeling was just you, Regen. We all have moments when we feel cared for for no apparent reason. Don't burden yourself with such thoughts."
Regen nodded, appreciating Graiss' attempt to calm him down. However, deep down, there was something different about this feeling. It was unlike anything he had ever experienced before. "Maybe you're right," Regen agreed, "but still, I feel like there's something to do with my strange dreams. Like there's a hidden message I need to find."
Graiss gave an understanding smile. "If you feel that way, we can figure out a way to find out more."
Regen nodded in agreement, relieved that Graiss supported him.
As the sun began to set, they decided to return home. Regen felt that his heart was lighter after talking with Graiss. Although he was not completely relieved yet, he knew that having Graiss by his side made him feel more grateful as well as calmer.
In his mind, Regen hoped that all this anxiety would slowly come to an end.
The night was getting late when Regen and Graiss arrived at their home. They sat on the terrace, enjoying the fresh evening breeze. Regen pondered, wondering what steps he should take to find answers to his dreams.
"Did you find anything?" asked Graiss attentively as she saw Regen busy daydreaming.
Regen shook his head. "Not yet. But it seems like this strange feeling is getting stronger, Graiss. I feel like something is trying to tell me, but I don't know what it is."
Graiss patted Regen's shoulder gently. "Don't worry too much. All this is mysterious, but remember that life is full of mysteries. Don't be too burdened by these thoughts."
Regen smiled. "You always know what to say, Graiss. I'm grateful to have you."
Graiss nodded. "We complement each other, Regen. As you do for me in many ways as well."
Regen felt lucky he had such a good friend, Graiss.
The night passed with warm conversations between the two of them. Regen felt happy to have Graiss who always listened and provided support. No matter how complicated the problem was, Graiss was always there beside him.
As the days passed, Regen still didn't feel at ease. Even so he tried to keep a clear mind. He tried to distract himself by trying to find some activities so that he, not only thought badly about the discomfort in his heart.
Even so he had to admit that some horrible images still appeared in his mind.
