My connection with Her

On the way home, while there was heavy rain and thunderstorm, Tristan was walking toward his house and he noticed something glowing, so he hurried back home because he thought it was a burglar. But when he opened the door, his book was glowing, he reached out and it turned out it was the sketchbook he used to draw in his childhood. Upon opening the sketch at the same time, the glow was gone, then he saw the sketch of a woman with black eyes and short black hair, and he remembered his childhood memories when he drew anything that came up in his mind. While reminiscing about the past, Tristan lays down on his bed while looking at the sketchbook, then later, he sleeps. Upon waking up in the morning, he notices the ceiling is different from his room, so he got up and saw some weird-looking old man holding a hoe and an old woman looking at him with caution while the other girl was hiding behind outside of the room, “who are you and what are you doing here?” says the old man, “I’m sorry, I even don’t know myself how did I end up here I was just sleeping in my room then!” “don’t take me for fool will ya!! I bet you are just some burglar that wants to take the chastity of my granddaughter! I won’t let you, as long I’m alive” the old man raise his hoe ready to hit Tristan with it suddenly the old woman hit him with a wok “why won’t you give him a time to explain you old fool” “B-but dear this guy suddenly appears in our granddaughter’s room and you still want him to explain he is definitely a burglar” “do you have a prof that he is? Just give him time to explain” then the old woman looked at Tristan “okay child tell me who are you and why are you sleeping in our granddaughter’s room?” “My name is Tristan lux and I'm working as a call center agent, yesterday I was just sleeping in my room and then suddenly woke up here I don’t really know how did this happen and why I ended up here but I’m really not a burglar” while kneeling and explain to them what happen, “Ryana dear come here, is this man saying is true?” Ryana was approaching slowly at her grandmother’s side “Yes grandma I was just waking up and then suddenly notice something was glowing and then before I know it this man was sleeping beside me” “I see so this man didn’t force to break in here, hmmm” while the old lady is thinking the old man interrupts “meh! This man is spouting nonsense dear I think we really should kill this man before he bares his fang on our only granddaughter” “don’t act hastily and don’t interrupt me while I’m thinking” then the old woman looked at Tristan “so where are you from?” “I’m from Japan though I’m half Japanese” “hmm Japan huh? What continent is that? I’ve been traveling in my youth but never heard of Japan, is that a new kingdom or something?” while looking at me with doubting eyes “huh? Kingdom? um, can I ask a question where am I?” “Huh were in the small village of Kluto in the continent of Klucester” “W-Whaaat!! “Then Tristan hurriedly ran outside and saw a few small houses and farmers who were planting wheat. Then Tristan who was dumbfounded and shouted “why in the world am I here!!! last night I was in Japan and now I am in some kind of province of who knows where”. Then the old woman walked to his side and told him “what do you mean who knows where I already told you that this is kluto” while the old woman looking at Tristan who looks sad and miserable, asked him “do you have a place to go? If you want you can stay here for a few days and then later look for that Japan or something”, then Tristan who is kneeling because of shock, is dumbfounded by the sudden offer from the old woman “thank you I will take your offer" the old woman reaches her hand to help Tristan to stand “come if you haven’t had breakfast yet right? eat with us”. Later after breakfast, the small family told me their names the old woman is Josephine Ran the old man is Layke Ran and the granddaughter is Ryana Ran. Then Layke Ran got up to his seat and said “I’m going I still have a job to do let us continue this discussion later on” while looking at Tristan with dissatisfaction “be careful dear, right Ryana could you show Tristan around? “Y-yes grandma” Ryana who is still nervous and shy toward Tristan invited him to show him around “T-Tristan let go” then Tristan replied to her with a shy tone too “Y-yeah lets go” while Josephine is looking at them can’t help but chuckle “forgive her she’s not really comfortable with the opposite gender you see, but you two looked like a couple who’s going puberty hahaha” Ryana shouted with embarrassed voice “Grandma!!” “hahaha forgive me you two just looked amusing” then Ryana embarrassingly and blushing to invite Tristan again “let’s go Tristan” “ Y-yeah” After breakfast, Ryana is showing me around the neighborhood and also introduced me to them. There were a few people that accepted me and some were not, and some of them thought I was a criminal because I’m an outsider. Looking around, I notice that this place is so oddly familiar that it feels like I was here before. “where have I seen it before?” while thinking this, Ryana asked me a question “Tristan? Are you okay? You seem to be spacing out is there something on your mind?” Ryana asked me a question because she noticed that some people from her village were not accepting me and thought that I do not belong here. “ahh I’m okay it’s just, there is something on my mind but it’s not something to worry about” “really? Then come with me I want to show you somewhere place that I always go when I’m thinking of something or I’m feeling down”. Upon arriving at that place I was dumbfounded by the sight. We were on the high ground and you could see the horizon, then the small village and the farmer who was working “amazing isn’t it? I stumbled upon this place when I was a kid. Thinking back, I was so adventurous that my grandmother always worried about me because I came back home with bruises” “hahaha I can only imagine their faces that time” “please don’t laugh too much. I know I may have been too bratty at that time but I’m not too proud to expose my dark history” “hahaha forgive me I’m not making fun of you, it’s just too similar because I was like that when I was a kid”, then both of them laugh. In the distant place where his grandmother is hiding behind the tree and watching them was relieved. “ It seems we don’t have to worry about them and I think Tristan doesn’t have an ulterior motive, we don’t have to worry about them, right dear?”, behind Josephine is Layk who is also watching them “Y-yeah lets go home and prepare the lunch for them” then Layk turn around and walk away, and Josephine notice him and can’t help but chuckle and ask “did they remind you when we were in that age? Haha don’t worry, I also remember it, that time you were so cute and innocent” and Lyak who is walking, shouted with embarrassment “don’t spout nonsense and let’s get going” “muuu you don’t have to be embarrassed about it, you know, but well that side yours I liked about you hehe” Layk who is walking started to walk fast just to hide his blushed and embarrassing face to Josephine “haha even if grow old you are still the same Layk I know that time” then Josephine walked at the same direction as Layk
