3 Chapter Two - Beginning of her dream I Think I'sve Met You in One of My Dreams: Lunox

Inside the room, Lunox was testing and checking the quality of her magic. She summons a rain of starlight at the mannequin in front of her and see how it works. She often use this mannequin when she's trying out her magics.

She smiled after seeing the affected part of the mannequin inside her room. Lunox attempt another one of her magic, her favorite. She unleashed a chaos energy forward the mannequin and she smiled more after knocking down the mannequin with just a one shot.

"Lunox? What are you doing?"

She almost jumped because of nervousness when she saw Hanabi beside the door of the room.

"A-ah? N-nothing," she answered. "W-what did you saw? Did you saw something?"

"Nothing. I just saw that creepy smile of yours. Why are you smiling all alone? Scary." she said

"I'm just happy."

"Happy to be what?"

"To be with you?"

Hanabi rolled her eyes, "Whatever. Why is there a mannequin here?" she picked the mannequin up thas was knocked out by Lunox. "Aha! I knew it! I know why you're taking this mannequin out when I'm not here!"

Yes, they are roommates. They share one room so when Hanabi and another one of her roommates is not around, that was only the moment were Lunox can experiment her magic.

Lunox felt tense after hearing Hanabi said that. "W-Why?" she asked.

Is this the time that the secret— she, being a mage— will be unveil?

"Because you're talking to them when I'm not around! Hah! I knew it! You're confirmed crazy. Let me take you to the hospital." Hanabi laughed.

That... was close.

"Anyway, ever heard about the word 'shopping' and 'going out with a friend'?" Hanabi.

"No, I haven't heard any of that." Lunox teasingly said.

"Come on, it's been a million years since you last go out." Hanabi sat on the bed. "You'll be soon rot."

"I'm not a food or dead animal to be rot. I'm not into shopping Hanabi," she walk into the bookshelf and get some books to read. "If you wanna go out, then go out with the guy you're dying for. I prefer to be rotten instead of shopping with you." Lunox said and lie down on bed and start reading the book.

Hanabi laughed, "That was rude. Why are you being rude to your friend?" she stand up and kissed Lunox on her cheeks that makes her cringe. "Just wait for Karina, she'll be here in a minute." Hanabi waved her hands and bid a goodbye "Enjoy your boring life and don't talk to mannequins again, okay?" she mocked.

Lunox wiped her cheeks and shook his head.

She's planning to continue testing her magics the time Hanabi was gone but she remembered that Karina will soon be there.

Karina is one of their roommates but acting as not. She's grouchy and kind of snob because she shows no concern so Lunox can't see Karina as a friend because they don't talk to each other often. They talk sometimes, but Karina doesn't talk too much like she's reserving her voice.

Lunox keep the mannequin and continue reading a book. Later on, her eyes felt heavy so she set aside the book and decided to sleep.

"Hi Lunox "

"Oh. Hi."

A guy with a white hair and dark skin sat beside her, "How's life?" the guy asked.

"What kind of question is that?" Lunox laughed.

"Uhm..a question coming from a concerned friend." He said.

Lunox and the guy laughed like they're happy to be with each other until Lunox realized something.

"W-wait," she stand up. "Who are you? W-why am I laughing with you?"

The guy smiled at her "I am the guy you'll often meet in your dreams."

~~~

Lunox let out a deep breath the time she woke up. Her heart beats really fast and she's all sweaty.

"Are you okay?"

She turned and saw Karina. Karina were sitting on a chair beside her bed and starring at her with a poker face.

"Y-yes, I'm okay."

"Had a bad dream?" Karina questioned.

"Sort of."

"Okay." She left Lunox and go to the study table to continue what she was doing.

She let Karina do what she wants and lost in tought about that dream of her. What was that? Why does she know that it was just a dream? Why is it that she can control it? Why... is her personality is different? She looks so lively and living her life as an unbothered woman. She looks unproblematic and smiling a lot... it's radiant and that's very different Lunox. And the most important of all, she's close to one guy— that never happened in her real life. She looks comfortable with him like she's really happy to be with him. What... what was that?
