Even though I have no memory But I like this place even though I don't know exactly what it is.

P.S. This story has some minor character corrections. If somewhere I forget to fix it and something seems strange, I can warn you.

"Oh..." I moaned softly, opening my eyes. The first thing I saw was a black-haired man with silver eyes. He smiled and greeted me. “Are you awake? Suddenly, someone passed out in front of the house. I was shocked." He acted relieved. I look around This room is made from light-colored wood. It gives a simple feel and is decorated and looks comfortable to the eye like a dream room.

Bookshelves packed to the brim make you wonder what's out there. The man in front of him's clothing was a short-sleeved, hip-length tunic worn over a shirt. On the shoulder length robe, there is a shoulder-length embroidered linen cloth decorated with lace along the edges. There is a ribbon tied at the front. The pants are a loose fit, full length and worn with high boots.

Why does it feel strange to me that it's a uniform I don't normally wear? Even though I was actually wearing the same clothes as him. It made me feel like I was in a legend or fairy tale.

“My name is Retas,” he smiled friendly at me and held out his hand. “Niatis,” I greeted him by shaking hands. “Where did it come from?” he asked. As I tried to think, my head ached with pain that made me cry out. “If you can't figure it out, you don't have to force it,” he said worriedly. When I was better, he brought me breakfast in bed.

It was a simple meal of soup, bread, and sausage. “If that's not enough, you can add more.” He smiled at me again. I nodded and started eating. “You made delicious soup,” I complimented him. “Thank you for the compliment.” After letting me eat a few more minutes, he began to tell me that he had found me passed out in front of his house the previous evening. So he carried him to his room. His demeanor is a kind-hearted person.

After finishing eating, he took the plate I ate out of the room. After a while, he returned. “Do you still have a headache?” I shook my head when he asked. So he took me to look around the house so I knew where to go when I needed something. His house wasn't very big, it was average in size. It is a two-story wooden house. The ground floor has a living room, bathroom, kitchen and dining room.

The upper floor is an office room. Bedroom and balcony Outside the house, there was a small flower garden around and a tea table set.

He took me to the market in the city. Almost every type of shop, from flower shops, sword shops, to exotic items. They are everywhere on the side of the road. “Do you want something?” “No.” He probably saw me staring at the feather pendant and asked me. I refused even though I wanted to own it. But I don't have any money.

Plus, I'm a stranger and I shouldn't let him buy things as I please. But suddenly he went and bought it for me. “You want it, don't you?” He handed it to me. His smile reminded me of an older brother smiling affectionately at his younger sibling. He put it on me and chuckled at my shy expression.

The two of us returned to his house after finishing the market. He started cooking dinner in the kitchen. A sweet scent reached my nose as he brought the food into the dining room. When we finished eating, I asked to be the dishwasher to help him. He seems like a very nice person to me. Because even though I was just a stranger, he treated me like an important person.

The next day he took me out to get to know other people. The people here are very friendly. It makes you feel good and safe here. At this point, my memories still haven't returned even though it's already the seventh day.

“Mr. Retas, your alarm clock is dead.” I glanced at his floor clock, which had stopped at exactly noon. By now it should be evening because the sun was setting low. “Oh, I'll fix it myself. Please help me go buy this.” Retas walked up to me. In one hand, he crumpled some paper.

He handed me a note on which he wrote down the things he wanted to buy and gave me the money. I nodded in acknowledgment and left the house.

Today, shops are mostly closed. Normally it would be really jolly. The surrounding atmosphere is quite dark. There is light from roadside lamps instead of the usual lights from shops. The soft white light made me notice that all the watches I found were The hand stops at precise time. I tried not to pay attention and hurriedly found the store to buy things as Retas ordered.

When he returned to his home I'm not asking anything about all watches stopping at the same time. And he didn't mention it. He may not know. Even though I had doubts, I kept my doubts there and closed my eyes to sleep while lying on the bed. It was actually Retas' bed. I myself told him that he could let me sleep in the living room instead, but he refused. So I just let it go.

The next day I went to the market with him as usual. “Who are you with, Retas?” a middle-aged woman selling fruit greeted us. "I'm Nietis." I smiled wryly and pointed at myself. But she didn't seem to recognize me. Because she told me 'Nice to meet you' The others did the same. No one recognized me except Retas. He doesn't talk to me about this matter no matter how much I ask him.

Seventh day of this week or on the fourteenth day Retis's clock stopped at noon as usual.

Knock knock

I went to open the door of the house because Retas wasn't home. A soldier from the palace stood at the door. He handed me an invitation card and spoke. “I invite you to attend the royal wedding banquet,” the soldier said to me. I decided to ask about this last week. “Was there a royal wedding last week?

I see that most of the shops that are open at night are closed.” The soldier answered me politely. “There's no way that's possible. Because our king has only one son.” “Thank you for telling me.” I smiled politely at him. “It's your duty,” he smiled at me. Then I went into the house to help Retas with a little housework.

When Retas returned, I hurriedly showed him the invitation card. But he didn't care one bit. “Just throw it away,” he said, as if bored. I acted sorry but had to do as he said because I had no right to force him.

Time passed quickly and the next week everyone forgot me. All the clocks in the city stopped on the same day and time. I had been wondering since the second week why the next day all the clocks, including the clock tower, had stopped working. quick repair It's like it never stops walking.

I received an invitation card as usual. I think all the events are repeating themselves over and over. But Retas didn't seem to be affected at all. Because he hasn't forgotten me. It was as if there was only time for him to move forward without repeating itself.

“Where exactly is this? Why does it feel like everything is repeating itself?!” I demanded an answer from Retas one day. Retas turned to look at me with bright eyes and a neutral expression before hugging me. "I don't want to lose you, Nietis," he said to me. Immediately, a feeling of pain spread from the lower part of my stomach, causing me to collapse immediately. “Retas...why...?” I looked at him, who was just standing there staring with blurry eyes before I lost consciousness.

I opened my eyes and found myself in Retas' room. There was a tray of food on the table, but I ignored it and immediately went to the door. I tried twisting the latch but the door wouldn't open. “Open the door! Why are you locking me up?!” I yelled, pounding on the door, but no one opened the door for me. Clear water flows from my amber eyes.

When you feel pain and search for reasons why this is the case. I quickly wiped away my tears and looked around the room for a tool that I could use to pry open the door. Because if I get down from the window, I probably won't survive. I remember that there were stones in the garden below the Retas room. The average height is about one meter. Suddenly I noticed a book on the table next to the bookshelf.

I remember never having seen it there before. Or maybe I've never seen it in this house at all. I picked it up and looked at it and realized it was a diary. It looks like it belongs to Retus. I immediately opened it and read it. Because if he didn't want it to be known, he wouldn't have put it here.

There was a young man who came here every day. He is a very cute young boy. Light brown hair looks gentle and glowing. Amber eyes as bright as precious gold. White skin looks smooth and smooth like a girl's. He is quite small which makes him look very cute. If he could see me, that would be good.

Well, I'm lonely.

That child comes here regularly. Looks like he's seen me. But old things like mine, they probably don't care...

I can't remember the last time someone picked me up to read. But now that child picked me up and read it. I'm so glad He finally paid attention to me.

I'm really very happy.

x/x/xxx

He reads me every day. He seemed to like me a lot because even after reading it, he kept rereading it. I'm very happy.

I hope days like this stay with me for a long time. I hope he will be with me for a long time.

If I continue to let go, he will probably abandon me again like the people who have passed me by. I must be alone again. I don't want to be alone anymore. Therefore...therefore I will bring him inside me. I will take good care of him. I will make him smile will make him laugh

because I like him

When I finished reading, I understood everything. This is the world inside a book.

Add

The sound of the door opening rang out. Retas stared at me, who was holding the diary. “You know everything, right?” His voice sounded sad. He didn't even meet my eyes. “You probably want to go back to your old world, right? If that's the case...I probably won't be able to stop you. Because even if I force you to stay, you won't be happy.

You won't smile or laugh again because you're afraid of me.” I saw tears streaming down his cheeks. He tried to speak in a trembling voice. “The mind of an old book of legends like mine. In the end it was abandoned anyway. In the end, I'm alone...are you going to pick me up and read again?” He forced a smile at me. His tears still didn't stop flowing.

He tried to hold back his sobs but I still heard them. I decided to embrace him, much to Retas' surprise. “You locked me up like this because you didn't want to see me while reading your diary. And you didn't answer me because you wanted me to be with you for as long as possible, right? I like it here. It's very beautiful.

I can stay with you here.” When he finished speaking, he hugged me very tightly in happiness. I can remember enough about the world over there. It wasn't like it was worth returning to. “Thank you, Nietis. Thank you.” His voice was still shaking from sobs. “But you have to promise me one thing,” I said as I pulled away from him.

Retas nodded immediately so I whispered softly to him. He smiled knowing what I wanted. “I promise.” He hugged me again as we both promised.

There is a story in a library far away. There was a strange book that could increase the number of pages on each page without anyone knowing why. The added story is not a princess, prince or fairy tale as usual. Instead, it is the story of two men who live happily until this book wears out and disappears...

“To repeat the same story over and over would be boring. Do you think so?”
