Mei: Rai...have you just woken up...?...or did you get lost again?

I could see he twitched a little as I said the last part.

Rai: ...I just woke up.

Rai took a seat in the nearby couch and I sat down next to him.

Rai: How long was I in the sleeping coffin?
Frankenstein: we don't know when you went to sleep but we last saw you 820 years ago.
Rai: 820 years...
Frankenstein: we searched everywhere after you two disappeared but we were incompetent to find you, sir. I'm so sorry.
Rai: we've been asleep for so long...
Mei: yes. I only woke up before you about a week ago.

Rai looked at me for a second.

Rai: are you feeling okay?
Mei: ...yes. I'm stable anyway. With all the life energy around here I'm gaining, I feel fine.....

It fell silent in the room.

Mei: ....u-um....Frankenstein. Can you fix Rai some tea?
Frankenstein: yes, mistress.

I looked up at Rai.
He reached down and moved the hairs from the left side of my face, revealing my green eye.

Raizel: ...Mei.
Mei: ....

Frankenstein came back in and placed the cup of tea down on the coffee table.

Frankenstein: How are you coping with language? Since you were asleep for so long, I'll get used to it, like I always do.
Frankenstein: good to hear that.

I could still feel Rai's eyes on me. I know he's concerned about my condition, but mine can't be any worse than his.

Rai: Are you leading a specific family while I was asleep, Frankenstein?

We could tell he was referring to the many people here wearing uniforms.

Frankenstein: No, sir. This place is called a "school," where we teach students and lead their way.
Rai: a school...

Rai thought for a second.

Rai:...I would have to get to know the present world.

I smiled at him.

Mei: Its very significant, I assure you.
