❤️Updating Every Saturday Evening (Japan Time)
(Translated and Arranged by Saya)
I heard this story from a kΕhai at work, and it’s about her friend (I’ll call her F san).
When F san was in elementary school, one day she was playing dodgeball during a break, and when the bell rang, she ran back to her classroom.
Everyone in her class had been playing outside, so she was sure she was the first person to arrive, but when she opened the door, all the other classmates were already inside and seated at their desks (it looked as though the class had already started),
and her classroom teacher said, sounding worried:
“F san, where have you been? Everyone has been looking for you.”
F san was confused and replied , “Huh? But I heard the bell ring, so I came back to the classroom…”
But in reality, F san had been missing for a whole day, and her family was planning to report to the police if she wasn’t coming home that day.
In the end, F san never found out the reason why such a thing happened to her.
Many years went by and F san became a nurse.
After a night shift, she was driving home and went through a tunnel which she usually used, and which was almost deserted due to the late hour.
The moment she came out of the other end of the tunnel, a view of the sea spread before her eyes, and she found herself driving on a seaside road.
As F san lived in KΕbe and was driving towards the mountainous area, she was astonished to see the sea, and she stopped by the nearest convenience store to ask where she was, and found out that it was a town on the Sea of Japan coast.
She had no choice but get a map from the convenience store (Note: this was an age before smartphones π)and spent a whole night returning home, tearful and exhausted.
Incidentally, F san kept the receipt from the convenience store where she bought the map, and logically it would have been impossible for her to leave work and then reach the store by the time indicated by the time stamp on the receipt.
Some time after this, F san quit the job and went to study in Australia.
My kΕhai kept in touch with her through letters, but one day F san stopped replying, and the worried kΕhai contacted F san’s boyfriend, but the boyfriend hadn’t heard from her for a while too.
So they contacted F San’s family only to be informed that F san had gone missing in Australia.
The local police in Australia was unable to help much because of the lack of clues, and F san’s family even travelled there to directly investigate, but they found F san was well liked by the local community and it was unlikely that she got involved in any premeditated crimes.
The remaining possibility was that she became embroiled in unforeseen incidents, but the room where she lived in was undisturbed as if she had suddenly vanished, and there was no evidence to suggest she became a victim to any kinds of violence.
Since then, F san has never been head from again.
Her boyfriend and my kΕhai, as they know her past, feel like F san will one day come back to them unexpectedly, as if nothing has happened.
This story seems to be true so please don’t repost it too much…

Maybe F is somewhere on earth but was now in a part of the world without civilization or technology. Like the unexplored amazon forest. Omaigod.
Thank you for this story, Saya. And all your past translations. We love them very much. Please do so at your leisure. We may disappear from time to time but we have been with you for a long time and will be still.
Oh. What's wrong with the picture? I can't figure it out π
~ nunu ~
That’s scary! I hope F san didn’t end up being in such places π±
Thank you so much for your kind words! Sometimes when I don’t get any comments, I start feeling unsure if anyone is waiting for my translated stories at allπ± Every week, I worry and fret about what I should translate next, and wonder if all this stress is worth it π€£
But I believe some people are looking forward to reading a new story on here every weekend and it’s giving them some comfort when things are hard in their lives. So that’s the sole reason I continue updating this blog - to give joy to people. Even this blog is a horror blogπ€£
About the picture:
There is nothing wrong with it. It just looks like the man’s wig has come off when in fact the hair belongs to the womanπ just a fun little picture! It kinda looks like the man’s wig is teleporting to somewhere else, so the picture is relevant to the story in a way! π
Thank you so much for your heartwarming commentπ take care ~ ⭐️
hailed and perhaps hated as every (un)imaginable omnipotent entity like dr. Who.
or she's now a powerful hero or demon lord in another world just like many mangas and novels these days π
Or perhaps this time she actually weren't so lucky since it's Australia... π·️ π π¦
If the story were true, Hopefully she's alive , in no danger, happy and healthy π
Thanks for your story Saya π I hope you have recovered since last time and in good health too π I like your stories! Always cheers me upπ
It’s interesting that some people think she was spirited away! I have never thought of that but that’s a possibility π
Thank you so much for your comment!ππ»
I like the idea that she might have become a hero in other parallel universes! π€£
Oh no! I hope she wasn’t attacked by a kangaroo or something π€£✨
I have completely recovered! Thank you so much! Now my sense of smell is back to normal and I can taste food without problems again! Thank goodness!π
I’m so happy to hear you like the stories on my blog!
Thank you so much for caring π
That thing in the picture is actually not a hair piece but the head of the woman who is standing next to himπ€£ so that makes the picture even funnier!
Thank you so much for introducing us to interesting novels ~ you seem to read a lot!
I used to read a lot too but nowadays I don’t read much!
Recently , I have ordered a copy of a fantasy novel from Amazon, so hopefully it will get me back to reading again ~ π
Thank you so much for your comment!✨
That is a very interesting folklore! I wonder what the magical rice tastes like?π€£
Thank you so much for sharing the story~ πππ»
Don’t worry you are supposed to miss herπ
That’s why it’s funny!
2) transported to another dimension
3) or maybe "jouhatsu"
But my favorite
4) unexplained(there is something eerie about this ending)
Thank you for the stories Saya-san^^good job as always
Thank you for all your theories π
Yes, the ending is a bit eerie!
I’m so glad that you liked the story ~ thank you so much for comment πππ»
Whatever the cause, I fear F-san may have had another episode and ended up somewhere dangerous. Depending on the part of Australia she was at, she may have wandered into the outback or bush and had no idea how to get back after regaining awareness...
I think that makes this far scarier and more tragic than most stories on this site. This one seems like a scenario that can happen to plenty of people anywhere.
Oh, epilepsy! I didn’t know that people with that condition can suffer from memory loss like that !
That must be scaryπ±
That’s one plausible non-supernatural explanation for this story! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts ~ π
