* * Part 3: The One Who Walks Out of the Narrative * *

I spent longer picking shirts than usual.

Not because I want to be beautiful

But because I don't know who I should be.

Should be the younger brother of Fah

Or should be this person's stranger?

The woman standing waiting for me in front of the mall.

-

Chiang Mai was hot that day.

The wind blows together the smell of dust and the smell of coffee.

I saw her first.

She's tall.

Skinny

Long hair

Wear a plain white shirt.

Not a Gown shirt.

Not the picture in the picture.

But I remember her.

"Mirin?"

She turned

Smile

Is a polite smile

Same as in chat

"Yes."

Her real voice.

Lighter than I thought.

-

We sat down in the cafe.

She caught a glass of water.

Two hands.

Like someone who doesn't know where to put his hand

My part.

Don't know what to start with

We sat silent for a while.

Before she speaks,

"Brother Fah... are you okay?"

I'm disrupted.

"I don't know."

I answered the truth.

"The sky is gone."

Mirining.

She looked down at the table.

Like thinking something

"Brother Fah... likes to disappear like this."

She spoke softly.

Like talking to yourself

-

"How long have you known Fah?"

She asked.

"Many years."

I answered.

"Very close."

Mirin nodded.

Like she already knows.

-

"Brother..."

She called me that.

Even though we just met for the first time,

"Have you ever met another friend of Fah?"

That question.

Make my heart twitch

I shook my face.

"Never."

Mirin smiled.

But not a glad smile.

It's a smile.

Of people who have already heard the expected answer.

-

She picked up the phone.

Open something.

And then show it to me.

It's Chat.

People name

That I've seen.

Through elder Fah

Rabbit ears doctor

Lawyer

The others.

"These..."

I can't finish talking.

Mirin nodded.

"Brother Fah introduced me too."

I frown.

"Then..."

Mirin looked up to me.

Her eyes.

Didn't shake.

But it's not stable.

"I've never met anyone."

-

The whole world.

Quiet down.

Coffee Shop Sound

Voice of people

Everything sounds.

Like being pulled away

-

"But..."

I'm trying to talk.

"Here I am."

Mirin smiled again.

This time

Sad than ever.

"Yes."

she said.

"Here I am."

She stopped.

Like choosing a word

"But are you sure?"

She looked me in the eye.

"That I am the same person in the story of elder Fah"

-

I don't understand.

Or maybe

I don't want to understand.

-

"Did Fah ever send you a picture of me?"

I nodded.

"Gown shirt picture."

I nodded again.

Mirin chuckled.

Not because of laughing

But like

Exhausted.

"I'm not a doctor."

she said.

"And then that picture..."

I asked.

Mirin replied.

"I don't know where Fah took it from."

-

My heart

Dropped down somewhere.

That's deep.

And dark.

-

"Then..."

I whispered.

"Who are you?"

Mirin, look at me.

Long time

Before answering

"I'm the only one."

She stopped.

"That exists."

-

The wind outside.

Still blowing as before

But my world

Not the same again.

-

Before we split up,

Mirin said a sentence.

That I remember for the rest of my life.

"Brother Fah didn't just lie to you."

she said.

"Brother Fah lied to everyone."

She stopped.

And keep talking.

Very light.

"Including mice."

-

And for the first time,

That I'm starting to wonder.

That maybe

Brother Fah

Probably never really anyone.

In addition to

The victim

That still believes she exists.
