1 TIME REMNANT

"You shouldn't have! I warned you!"

°

"Now who will be in charge?"

°

"You're killer!"

°

"This will be a high risk, Ra. I don't want you to fail. So do I,"

°

"Now it's irreversible!"

°

"You're the cause of all this!"

°

"What have you done to them?!"

°

"I will help you, regardless of the consequences."

°

"YOU'RE KILLER!!"

°

"Congratulations, you have now come to the situation you have to accept."

Rara sobbed in the corner of her room wrapped in wet clothes, which were now soaking the carpet beneath her. She deliberately bit her hand so that the screams produced were muffled, but she didn't feel any pain even though her hand was already bleeding from the bite.

"Rara, open the door," said Mika from outside the room while continuously knocking on the door. "Listen to my explanation."

Rara's cry has become more and more.

"Rara, please, don't cry. Don't hurt yourself. I'll break down the door if you don't come out!"

"La, I just bought your favorite food. It's on the dining table, if you want," Rara closed the door when Lala just entered.

With lazy movements, Lala took off her shoes and walked back without replying to Rara.

"La, eat first, okay. You just got home from work, you must be tired. It'll be cold later," said Rara, following Lala's steps to her room.

Lala turned her position to Rara. "I think I'll move out of this house."

Like a thunderbolt slapping her, surprised, Rara's face turned sad. Like asking the question "why?" to Lala, she couldn't hold back the tears that suddenly fell.

"I don't want to be with you and Dad. Just take care of your own life. Let me follow Mom and accompany her," Lala replied curtly without feeling. He turned back and went into her room, closing the door with a bang.

Rara held back her laughter when Rio had just explained his-style presentation to Rara, about the time machine he had created - although it wasn't one hundred percent made yet.

"Is something funny? Is something wrong?" Rio asked in a barely audible voice.

"Seriously? You're going to create a time machine?" asked Rara again, she laughs. However, because Rio is now wearing an offended face, then Rara immediately stopped him. "Okay, okay. Sorry for laughing at your idea.

Rio, listen to me. I know you are the most prestigious laboratory physicist in this city, in this country. I also know your achievements at university, I appreciate it, I don't doubt it either. I believe you are great. You have brains that most people don't have. But, Rio. Humans walk in a line of time from the present to the future. It will continue like that, forever."

This time it was Rio who held back his laughter because of Rara's opinion. And that managed to make Rara quiet again and put on a questioning face.

"I know. But not many people think what it would be like to create a new line."

Rara prefers not to argue with him.

"What did you create a time machine for?"

Rio looked a little thoughtful. "My experiment."
