I open my eyes. I'm lying on my own bed, with the Yuki dakimakura अगला to me. I realize my computer is on and is playing "Tomhet", द्वारा Burzum, which sums up my feelings right now - emptiness. I look up to the ceiling in despair. Damn it, was that all a dream? I mean, a part of me knew it was all along. But it felt so real... Wish it wasn't.

I stand up and pull away my window curtains. Outside, it's snowing and not a soul can be seen.
I put my hands against the window and whisper:
"Yuki..."
A tear starts rolling down my eye. The dark ambient संगीत is still playing as I slam my head to the window and start sobbing. I get back to my बिस्तर and start hugging my तकिया again.

A few hours later, I take a शावर, शॉवर and eat breakfast. My family keeps asking me why I look so depressed. I don't even want to talk to them. I go back to my room and pull out my laptop. I decide to share my story with my फ्रेंड्स to try to feel better.
I login on Skype and start talking to my फ्रेंड्स Alex, Emil, Adnan and Ink. After telling them all what happened it went like this:

Me: So what do आप guys think?
Alex: Gotta say that I'm impressed that आप remember all of it in such detail. Know what? आप should write a fanfic about it.
Ink: That sounds soooo gay.
Alex: No it doesn't.
Emil: Sounds like a bad idea, but meh, it could work if done right I suppose
Adnan: I'm so jelly. I wish आप could प्यार me instead of Yuki.
Me: Eh... some other time, okay?
Alex: Now's not the time, Adnan.
Adnan: Sure, sure.
Ink: I still think it sounds gay.
Alex: Well, आप yourself have कहा "you gotta start somewhere".
Ink: Yeah.
Alex: So Kevin.
Me: Yeah?
Alex: Do आप want me to be your editor?
Me: Sure, I don't mind.
Adnan: What about me?
Me: आप can go back and play Diablo III.
Adnan: Sounds good to me.
Ink: Chewable vitamin tablets are so yummy.
Adnan: I know right?
Emil: Okay, that was random.
Me: We're always random, man.
Ink: Not as बिना सोचे समझे as your fanfic.
Alex: I agree.
Me: Tsundere.
Emil: Ugh...Can आप be any और annoying?
Me: THIS DRILL IS THE DRILL THAT WILL PIERCE THE HEAVENS.
Everyone: ...
Me: Sorry, I just प्यार Gurren Lagann.
Emil: And what is that?
Me: Amazing ऐनीमे series.
Ink: Sounds gay.
Alex: Is everything gay to आप या what?
Ink: Not everything - just what's gay is gay.
Alex: Anyway, we're getting off-topic here. What about the fanfic?
Adnan: I won't read it.
Me: Good, आप don't need to.
Emil: Well, guys, I have to take out the dog.
Alex: Alright, see आप later.
Emil has logged out.
Ink: I guess I'll go play Resident Evil 6 then.
Me: I don't really like that game...
Alex: आप haven't even played it.
Me: Well, I played the demo.
Alex: Doesn't count.
Ink: Dude, it's awesome.
Me: Alright, go ahead and play it.
Ink has logged out.
Alex: आप sound a little pissed off, unlike usual. Everything alright, man?
Me: I guess.
Alex: Hey, Kevin, I've been thinking...
Me: Yeah?
Alex: After आप finish it, maybe I should make it into a movie? Just for the hell of it.
Me: Seriously? Can आप do that?
Alex: Well, I am currently studying in the cinematography department. Assuming I live long enough to become a film director to make it, we can make it happen, या at least give it a try.
Adnan: Can I act in it?
Alex: Can आप do voice acting, Adnan?
Adnan: Uhm...yes?
Alex: Well, this is going to be an ऐनीमे film.
Adnan: That's awesome! But I probably won't be part of it.
Alex: …Then in that case… आप asked us if आप could be a part of it because…?
Me: Sucks for you. This will be a huge success!
Adnan: Nevermind. I'll just go and play Diablo III.
Alex: Have fun.
Adnan logged out.
Me: So how are आप going to make that movie?
Alex: I did say it's going to be an ऐनीमे movie. I'll just write the final draft screenplay like I'm doing now with the movie I'm working on with Emil, and then we can have the studio that made the original series and movie produce the actual film. Assuming, of course, that they'll like the idea of a perky Swedish Haruhi प्रशंसक getting zapped into their Disappearance movie. And we'll need a good voice actor for the Japanese dub of your character, unless आप can learn to speak Japanese द्वारा that time.
Me: Sounds good. I can't wait till it's done.
Alex: Make the fic first, smartass, so I can know what to base the script off.
Me: Oh, right. I'll work on that later.
Alex: द्वारा the way, that dream of your's...
Me: Yeah?
Alex: It still really mysteries me, though, that आप could remember it so well in such fine detail.
Me: You're right. I never remember my dreams this clearly.
Alex: That's not the point.
Kevin: Then what is?
Alex: I mean, sure, usually we remember our dreams really well... when we actually see them. When we wake up everything gets all fuzzy, and we can't exactly recall where we started, what we went through and where we left off at. But in your case, it almost feels almost as if आप actually went through all of that and returned to tell the tale.
Me: That's crazy. There's no way that can be true...right?
Alex: It's all a matter of perspective, really, mate. There's a quote द्वारा the character Dominic Cobb from Christopher Nolan's movie Inception that I really like: "Dreams feel real while we're in them. It's only when we wake up that we realize that something was actually strange." To this दिन it's debatable on whether या not dreams and reality have a connection to them, as it's unconfirmed if the brain has any outside impacts या influence besides the cells connected to the body. आप know, like psychic people – no one knows if they're fake या not. Some people believe that dreams could be signs of premonition, and some think that when we dream, we go and explore entirely different worlds. Others believe that there are no such things as dreams, just endless realities just pilled up all on चोटी, शीर्ष of each other.
Me: That's deep, man. Makes आप really think...
Alex: I'm sure आप would like that to have happened, wouldn't you, eh?
Me: आप bet your नितंब, गधा I would.
Alex: Who knows, Kevin? Maybe one day. Maybe one day. Oh crap, look at the clock, it's getting late. I'll catch आप tomorrow after school then, as always, right?
Me: Of course. Good night. I'll be here as always...I think.
Alex: Ha ha! Where could आप possibly go? See आप tomorrow, man! Good night.
Alex logged out.
Me: I don't know...maybe I wake up from my current dream.

Afterwards, I open up iTunes and start listening to some depressive black metal. I lay my head down on the बिस्तर and close my eyes. But suddenly, the संगीत stops and the screen turns black. My room is completely dark and I'm getting creeped out. Just then, text starts appearing on the screen.

YUKI. N> _

I rub my eyes in disbelief. This can't be real. Is Yuki really communicating with me? No way. This must be some sort of prank.

Ready?_

I stare at the screen intensely. I bite my lip and clean my glasses. This could be some sort of prank, या maybe even virus. If I press enter, who knows what could happen? Then again, what if this works? This is my only chance. Screw it, I don't care if something bad happens, I just want to get back to Yuki. I look around my room one last time and finally I press Enter.
