There's nothing else but that 1999 in the book cover. Tsk. I continued my search-
"Aaaah!" I'm startled when I felt a hand holds my wrist! I turned around and almost fell on my knee at what I saw! That woman! In violet shawl covering her hair and half of her face looking straight into my eyes.
I tried to shout for help but it seems that my voice runs out and abandoned me!
I took steps back without breaking eye contact with her afraid she might do something. I step back until I feel the shelf in my back. I'm cornered! Oh my God! She's coming too close so I step back even though I know that the shelf blocked me. But-
"Ouch!" I fall on my knees and hopefully I can talk already. I stand up from the sand and-w-wait...
Sand?! I roamed my eyes around and got my eyeballs almost fell when I realized I'm in a beach!
"What the hell?" No! I must be dreaming! This can't be true! Right?
"This is true." I turned around hearing that voice. That woman! In my dream! In the library! Oh my god, if this is a nightmare wake me up please!
"You're not dreaming. Welcome to year 1999, Mielle."
For a minutes, I become speechless.
