Cuteness Overload

(Translated and Arranged by Saya)

This happened to me about two months ago.

It could have been just a dream, but I really want someone to hear my story.

That morning, I woke up at 10.

“10 already…?”

The university lecture started at 9.30, but I wasn’t bothered because I was always late anyway.

By the way, I live about three minutes walk from the university campus.

I then had a leisurely breakfast (some leftovers from the previous night), so in the end I arrived at the campus at 10.24 (checked it on my phone). 

There was no one on the campus. 

Like literally zero people. 

I was thinking like,

“Everyone’s in the lectures? Amazing.” 

And then, I went to a lecture room myself.

But when I arrived there, it was all empty.

“What? Have I come to a wrong room?”

I checked the schedule but it was the right room.

Weird, I thought. 

But something even weirder happened right after this.

As I was leaving the room, my phone rang. 

I looked at the screen and it said:

“NOBODY”

in English. 

Nothing like this ever gets displayed on a phone screen, right? (Note: this story took place before the age of smartphones.)

I don’t know what got into me then, but I answered the phone.

“Hello? Moshi mo…” 

As soon as I said that:

“You! Why are you here!?” 

I heard a voice. 

It was a voice of a middle-aged man. 

“Who is this?” 

“That doesn’t matter!! How did you get in here!!?”

“Excuse me, what are you talking about?”

“Just look outside!”

“Stop playing a joke on me!”

I hang up on him.

But I was still curious and went out on the balcony of the lecture room (I was on the second floor). 

From there, I could see the sports ground, and there was a middle-aged man standing right in the middle of it.

He was holding something to his ear. It appeared to be a mobile phone.

As I continued to stare at the man, he slowly started turning his head towards me.

“Shit!” 

I sensed danger.

A moment later, the man reached into his pocket.

I don’t know why but I felt I should make a run for it, and I left the balcony and darted out of the lecture room.

But just as I crossed the threshold, I felt a weird sensation as if my body was being elongated. I had never felt anything like it before.

“Wha…what’s going on?”

That was when I woke up.

I was lying down in my own room.

It was 8 o’clock in the morning.

Such a weird dream! 

I thought, while getting ready for the university, but then soon I found something wrong in my room.

When I opened the fridge, I found no leftovers from the previous night.

Instead, the plates where I had put the leftovers on were in the sink.

I still look back on this experience and now I have my own theory about it.

Wasn’t that man I saw a kind of a keeper of time and space? 

Although I don’t remember his voice or how he looked like, I do remember the strange  feeling that he was a middle-aged man. 

I don’t know why….
