Chapter 341 - Chauncey and Yang Part 6 (1/2)
*UNEDITED*
Chauncey quickly learned not to mention it in front of him. It can't be a coincidence can it? He sighs deeply, that's the fifth night in a row he could not sleep properly. Although Junie only appeared in his dream this morning. It felt like the dreams prior was getting him ready for today.
Feeling a sudden warmth on his forehead his eyes went wide and found the hand belonged to Ran.
”You have a mild fever. I knew I should have taken over your job the other day,” she sighed.
”I'm feverish?” Chauncey repeated. He hadn't noticed it at all but since she is saying so, it's most likely to be true. He doesn't remember when the last time he got sick was.
Chauncey nodded as a response.
”It'll probably get worst if you don't rest. Akito, where is my bag?”
He weakly turned his head, and saw Akito there. His friend looked at him with a concerned look on his face, and yet Chauncey felt a ominous air surrounding him.
”It's over here,” Akito passed her the bag.
n begins to rummage through his bag. After a few minutes he pulled out a bottle of pills and a packet of cooling pads. He glanced around and spotted a bench.
Jun didn't get a chance to say anything since they carried him away already. After he laid down, she placed the cooling pad on his forehead.
Chauncey half expected her to start lecturing him but instead feels his hand touch his cheeks. ”As I thought you've been looking of for a few days. The light on your room has been on quite a bit these past few nights.”
”You noticed that?”
There rooms are no where near each other. So unless she walked by that area she should not have noticed it. Chauncey found that odd though. Akito strictly forbade her from walking in this area. Forbade huh? Chauncey still doesn't understand why he has to do something like that.
It's not like he will do anything to her. While he played around with many girls, it was because of his condition.
”I did,” she nodded.
Odd.
Usually she would deny it. After all it would mean admitting he was paying extra special attention to him. How strange.
”Now that questions are over get some rest. We still have a hour left before we have to go back on.”
Chauncey managed to nod and closed his eyes. Vividly her image slowly faded and yet at the same time it seemed to overlap with a small girl. But just as he tried to get the details it began to blur. Ah, there is something missing after all.
Her hand and this behaviour just now is familiar. When Akito introduced to each other he already had a feeling then, that this isn't the first time they met. He wonders if there's such a connection.

Present Year 2019- Tokyo
Even back then Chauncey found her familiar.
Chauncey always thought that his observations are spot on. Once he collected enough data about a person after observing them, then there is no longer any need to do so. He was always under the impression that as long as he did that, then he would understand there is about every individual he comes in contact with. But he made a error in his calculations. Despite observing several different girls and boys, something changed.
