Chapter 3

I feel something warm, someone touching me so gently – is this you, Mother? I gently opened my eyes and saw him, Zephyr. I gently got up and laid my head on wall with him caressing my hand "Red, are you back?" he asked with his voice a bit cracked, I kept him worried for too long – instead of replying, I just nodded and didn't look at him in the eye. "I'm glad you're back, you didn't remember anything from what happened a while ago right?" he asked again, but this time his tone was a bit embarrassed – I already knew he did something. "Thank you" I replied with a monotone voice and reached for both if his hands – gently holding them and stared into his eyes. 

His facing was burning – looked away embarrassed, "H-hey, don't look at me like that, w-we're p-partners right that's what we do best, we help each other" he replied with a flustered voice – he looked deeply into my eyes "Red, you have some explaining to do" he added but this time with a serious tone. He was serious this time, his eyes were telling me that I must have discovered something from the past, that I opted not to tell. 

"This may sound unreal, but, I successfully changed souls with my past self, yes, it is risky, and I know I may change the timeline" I explained with my voice cracking, "I-I" I added but I couldn't hold back my tears from everything that I saw. He pulled me into his arms and hugged me tightly "Its okay, go on, we need that information" he said with an assuring voice and pushed me gently staring into my hazelnut green eyes. I calmed down and breathed deeply "During my transfer, I saw my family again, I was back when I first knew Ms. Woods and found that book again, in my calculations I was back in the year 2021, it was just an ordinary day and everything went vague, I fell asleep and woke up here." I explained with a serious tone, "I don't know about you, but something feels off – its like you're missing some parts of your memories" he said in a very serious tone, "Its my memory, clearly everything's in place, but I don't seem to remember what exactly happened that day" I added glaring at him. 

"Precisely! I'm not in there" he replied laughing loudly, I smacked his head and grinned at him "You know, you're actually quite cool when you're quiet" I jokingly told him. "Well, would you be interested in dating me then, if I kept my mouth shut?" he smirked, looking at seriously – I couldn't tell if he was serious or not, but I immediately smacked his head "In your dreams, butt face" replying in a joking voice – I stood up and stretched. 

"But, thanks for taking good care of me, Zephyr, I really appreciate it" I said in a serious voice and patted his head. He just smiled and looked at me gently smiling back at me, I could feel my body tingling and my heart beating rapidly, what was this feeling? 

"Don't worry Reddy, I'm here for you no matter what" he let go of my hand, stood up and bowed at me. "Use me whatever you want, I'll always be here to support you" he added, reaching for my hand and gently kissed it. 

I can feel my body tingling again, my heart beating rapidly, I couldn't understand what I was feeling. It feels warm and gentle, a feeling that I've been yearning, but yet kept denying.

 "It seems Renia, is up to something again, find out what she's doing. Don't lose sight of her" said with a serious yet calm voice, the shadowed figure bowed and left the room. She walked towards the window and looked at the tall buildings in front of her, she was in her 30s, a sexy woman with wavy middle-length red hair, dark siren eyes, fair-skinned, and had a fox-like face beauty. She was beautiful, any man would easily fall for her charm – but despite her beautiful appearance on the outside, she was hideous on the inside. 

Suddenly, a man in his 30s entered the room, he was the exact equal of beauty with this beautiful siren. "Well, Tamaria Woods, something bothering you?" the man spoke with a cold tone, you could feel the coldness and tension between these two. "Seems like, the jack has finally came out of the box, it was nice meeting you again, Ur" she replied – turning back and glaring at the man, who was in front of her. "Seems like, you've grown yourself some muscles" she added, pointed her fingertips in his chest, and leaned on him. 

Ur gently pushed her back, "It seems we have a problem" he said with a monotone voice, he opened his watch with a hologram of screens, showing it to her "There seems to be a problem in the time loop, however, its only a minor problem but I think we should further investigate it before anythi—" he was cut off by Tamaria, who suddenly pushed him in the couch and whispered into his ear "We can chit chat later, for now focus on me, Ur" she sat on his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck and glared at him seductively, she slowly breathed into his neck and softly bit his ear. 

"Let's just enjoy this moment to ourselves shall we?..." she softly whispered into his ear, as he finally gave in and kissed her passionately, "As you wish, Tamaria" he softly said, gently touching her face.
