A high school girl finds a mysterious book and brings it home with her. When she brought it back home and opened the book to read, she was sucked into the book, but her original body was still lying in it. Then she herself found many stories inside that book.

EP.1 YumeNoOnna-

woman in dream

The bell for class ended sounded as if the students had gone home. Some people go to sleep at friends' houses, others go sing karaoke. There was only me sitting by the window thinking about studying. Until the evening there were fewer people and I started going to the library before going home. Usually I borrow books to read when I get home.

Thinking like that, I immediately got up from the table and went to the library. The library is on the 5th floor of the school building and there are fewer people here. The teacher told us to hurry and go home. When I walked up to the library and chose the book I wanted to read, my eyes saw a book and I was interested, so I realized that this book had something attractive to me.

Miyako: This book is...

YumeNoOnna (

The girl in the dream?) What is it?

(I said this with a suspicious expression.)

Miyako: I don't know what it is, but I'll try reading it at home.

After that, I took the book home and read it. While going home There was a group of classmates waiting in front of the school. They are the ones who bully me. They were waiting for me to walk over and then they blocked my legs causing me to fall to the ground.

roommate

A:

Ara Ara!! I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. Haha.

roommate

B:

That's so weak.

roommate

C:

That's it.

She said this with a laugh. The one that didn't say anything hurriedly got up and headed home. The sky started to darken and I hurriedly opened the door and came into the house.

Miyako: I'm back.

I opened the door into the house. Then I found that no one was home, so I walked into the kitchen and saw a note laying there. So I picked up a notepad and read it. Mom and Dad won't be home. Let's eat dinner first.

Miyako: Mom and Dad aren't here. Plus 2 people went out together. Let's go travel again.

So I hurriedly ate my meal and went up to my bedroom, then sat down on the bed. Read a book you borrowed from the library to see what the inside is like. As soon as I looked at that book first, there was a sound from this book.

(???) : Don't open it.

Miyako: Eh!? What sound came from this book just now? Why?

I, who wasn't interested, opened the book and looked at it. That book said: woman in dream

If you see her in your dreams, she will take care of you from a distance. But if we don't use that in the worst case

She will absorb life energy until the person sleeps and never wakes again.

Miyako: Something like this happened too.

Miyako: But why do you feel sleepy? I don't know how, even though......

After that, I fell on the bed. And then my eyes slowly opened Close your eyes slowly.

After that time, I was lying awake and woke up. I realized again that I was somewhere I don't know.

Miyako: Where exactly is this? Just like in the book Looking at it, it looks really beautiful, like a fantasy world in the game. And in conclusion, where is this?

I said, raising both hands to cover my face as if I couldn't believe my own eyes. While he was worrying, there was a loud noise from the grass.

Miyako: Who is that?

I said that and suddenly A strange animal jumped out. The animal had a strange shape, very similar to a rabbit. But the shape was distorted, giving the appearance of a strange shape. The rabbit looked at me for a while before jumping off to another place.

Miyako: Where are you going?

I said that and ran after the rabbit. I ran until I was very tired, so I stopped to catch my breath and looked around. This forest looks more beautiful than ever, with animals that have never been seen anywhere before. I ran until I was thirsty, so I searched for a drink of water until finally I found a stream of water, a very clear stream.

Along the water there are a few animals. Like a butterfly blurred in blue and yellow light. Live along this water Then I was happy and ran to drink that water. Then I drank it and I saw the fairy-tale me I was. A deer glowing blue all over came to drink water. I thought to myself, this is the first time I've seen an animal like this.

It's like coming out of a fairy in a fairy tale. When I thought of it like that We read this book and how to return. How can we go back? I thought of a way to wake myself up. Oh, try pinching your own arm to wake up. I tried pinching my arm and I said,

Miyako: It hurts!? It's not a dream here, right? But if it's a dream, it must not hurt.

I said, confused. For a moment, my eyes saw a woman stretching under a large tree. There are butterflies of various colors flying around. The woman's tree looks exactly like the picture of the book she is reading: long, straight, black hair. Red eyes look like gems. The look in his eyes was like a smile, like he wanted to say something.

Wear a shirt similar to a kimono. The top is white and the bottom is red. She seemed to start to feel uncomfortable and tried to avoid her eyes. I felt a little confused when I saw that. So I kept walking forward. I saw two people reaching out and walked towards it, seeming to realize that someone had slipped into this world.

Mysterious woman

A:

Ara!! It seems like someone has slipped in here.

Mysterious woman

B:

So, how do you get in?

Miyako: I don't know. How did you get in? Just turn the page and read for yourself.

Mysterious woman

A:

Ara Ara !! I consider her a bit unlucky. who came to meet us

Miyako: What are you going to do to me?

Mysterious Woman: Prepare yourself. You, it's over.

Miyako: Oh...don't.

Mysterious woman

A

That pushed me back to the ground and stomped my foot for fun. Until I was covered in the dirt of this forest floor. This woman couldn't stop stepping on me. The me that can't do anything

I could only think in my heart that someone could help me, but there probably wasn't any. Is there anyone who can help in this forest? After that, a voice came out saying:

(???) : Stop it now.

The woman's actions suddenly stopped. She looked a little startled and removed the leg that had stepped on me and backed away. In other words, the other woman didn't do anything to us at all. Is it an impossible feeling to just follow the other person's orders? I have this feeling of being bullied by others to the point where I can't resist. Unable to respond to anything until he was the only one being bullied.

(???) : Can you help me a little? Stop bullying people who can't fight, Yami.

(The sound came from far away. And that woman rushed in to stop this event. When that woman came running, she stopped and stood in front of me, and she said with a slightly dissatisfied expression.)

Yami: P..Yume.

(Yami was a little startled when she saw Yume, so she removed the leg that was stepping on me and walked backwards.)

Yume: Ah, you too. You can't just do what everyone else says.

What do I have to do by myself?

(After she finished speaking back, both of them turned to me and knelt in front of me who was lying on the ground. and tell me back)

Yume: Is something wrong with you? It doesn't hurt anywhere, right?

(She said that with a worried expression. My body tilted up and sat up.

To me, this girl is a gentle soul. Be a little concerned about other people. and gradually help others When she was having trouble, she had a bright, cheerful smile and gently reminded others. and always tell me where there is a mistake)

Miyako: Oh...um, it's nothing. That's all.

(I said this while forcing a slight smile. You, who saw that, told me)

Yume: No, don't force yourself to say it. Going out while you're still hurt isn't good, even if you don't say it directly. But the expressions and actions clearly don't say it.

(After that she came and hugged me Her body is very warm. It was a very heart-warming hug.

I was only slightly shocked. My both hands hugged you without my whole heart. My tears flowed for no apparent reason.)

Yume: You don't deserve to be here. There's no place for you here. I'll use it to take her back. Now her parents are worried.

Miyako: Eh...!? Can she do that too?

(I said that with a little doubt)

Yume: You can do it.

(She said that and returned the smile she gave me)

Yume: Alright, is that enough hugging yet?

(She said that while patting my back lightly. When I realized that and slowly loosened my hold on her from the hug, I looked at the two people who were standing there doing nothing but staring like that. She told me that)

Yume: Those two? Don't worry, those two are my sisters. Is it shocking? Even though my personality is like that, I'm quite lonely so I just do what I want. I apologize on behalf of my sister.

Miyako: It's nothing. I didn't think much of it myself, so don't worry about it.

Yume: But... um... something like that?

(She said this while sighing slightly)

Yume: Well, it's time to return to your old world. Close your eyes and listen to everyone's calls. Someone's calling for you.

Miyako: The voice calls.....

(I closed my eyes and listened with all my heart to that call. Then a voice called out in my head: Miyako, Miyako, wake up. Is it your father and mother who have returned? But who are these other 2-3 voices calling?

Yume: Okay, it's time to leave.

(After that, she raised her right hand Pretending to snap your fingers)

Miyako: Please don't rely on me.

(Soon enough, the sound of snapping fingers could be heard throughout the forest floor. My body suddenly disappeared from there. After my body disappeared, she let out a tear. It's as if I really want to be with that person for a while longer but I can't.)

Yami: P..Yume, are you going to keep doing that after this?

Yume: What next? I taught both of them a lesson.

Yami: Eh....!!!

Ana: Wow~that's bad.

Yami: I'm...sorry~

The scene cuts to Miyako. During the time when my body was sent back, I heard a voice calling me along the way, and my memories of the past were gone. I could only think in my heart. Something like this happened too? Cut to Miyako's bedroom. The voice called louder and clearer.

Mother: Miyako Miyako

Miyako: Oh...um~~~

(I slowly opened my eyes to the familiar ceiling of a house I looked around the house and saw a worried mother and father next to me, and three friends who were in the same class. One is named Nana, the second is Yumi, and the last one is Rina)

Rina: I'm so glad you're okay. I thought I'd never see her again haha~~~

(She said this with tears streaming down her face. Others seemed to shed tears as well.)

Miyako: Sorry for worrying you all.

(I said this while smiling and returning the tears that flowed)

Nana: How long has it been since I've seen you smile like this? She usually doesn't smile at anyone and is always serious, causing her to get teased all the time, right?

Miyako: Where did that book go?

Yumi: Which book? We didn't see that book when we came in. When we came to see her, she was already asleep. No matter how much I called, she wouldn't wake up.

Nana: So we took her to the hospital and the doctor told us that there was nothing wrong with her body. She had just been asleep for 7 days.

Miyako: Eh~~~ It's going to be 7 days. Have I been asleep for that long?

(I was so shocked that I accidentally spoke loudly. Everyone covered their ears because of me. accidentally spoke out loud)

Mother: Okay, everyone, come and eat together tonight, whatever. And this meal is beef stew.

Yumi: Beef stew? Wow~~~ It's my favorite.

Rina: Mine too.

Nana: Mine too.

Yumi: It's your favorite too, Miyako-chan.

Miyako: Eh! Oh...um.

Mother: If you want, then everyone come and eat together.

After everyone had walked out of the room I wondered for a moment and thought that the book I had brought with me was missing. I don't know how it disappeared. I didn't think much of it because I had gone through that incident so I didn't think much of it so I went down to eat with everyone. Without telling anyone about this matter at all.

The time of having fun talking has passed. The quiet night has come and everyone has said goodbye to each other and gone home. Each one has said that they will meet again. I finished saying goodbye to the three of them and walked up to my room and lay down on the soft bed. The light from the moon shone through the window in the dim room.

I just looked and thought and looked at the moon that was shining so beautifully. I've been thinking all kinds of things about what happened. And tomorrow I'm going to ask the teacher at that library about the book I borrowed. When the morning came, I went straight to that book when I went to school. and asked about that book

The teacher in that room gave the answer. That book doesn't deserve to be here. So I was quite shocked that the book wasn't. Ordinary book Books have stood the test of time. But the passage of time has not made that book look any less old. In the wide field in the garden behind the school.

I sat under the cherry blossom tree and thought about how many stories must have happened throughout that era.

To the extent that I was thinking

Yumi: This~~~ Miyako-chan

(Yumi and others who ran up to me and asked me if we wanted to eat together, how about we eat together and talk about fun things like last night?)

Miyako: Um, okay.

Yume: Hehe, you have such good friends.

(After Yumi pulled me away, I felt someone was watching me, so I looked at the cherry tree I was sitting on. and looked up into the trees and saw no one So I thought I'd think about it myself. Then a cool breeze blew past, causing the petals of the cherry blossoms to flutter in the air and float along with the wind)
