"In addition, I can't remember anything about what happened to me in the past. This left me even more confused and wondering where all my powers came from." Rei lowered his head.
Elvina was speechless looking at Rei, her hands slowly stretched out towards him. He rubbed his cousin's shoulder gently and said, "You don't have to worry. I'll definitely help you remember everything slowly."

Nightfall. After meeting with Elvina at his house, Rei returns home along with Elvina and William who are also asked to come. Tonight, Isyana plans to make a meeting of their extended family and everyone present to meet with Rei.
Rei met a lot of people who made him confused, too many people. He never thought that his family turned out to be a big enough family, everyone was present that night. Including Indri and his family who are none other than the parents of Elvina and William.
After the dinner was over, everyone gathered and chatted together.
The living room of their home was instantly filled with the voices of people chatting, talking about random things and discussing everything they could discuss.
While others chatted, it was different with Rei who was now sitting between Elvina, William, Marcell, and Miranda. Initially they also chatted a few things, but after the topic ended, they just kept quiet and focused on their respective phones.
After gathering with his extended family, Rei finds out more about himself than William and Elvina, and is close to Marcell and Miranda.
Marcell and Rei were close enough, they even attended the same school for ten years. Yes, at least before Rei disappeared a year ago and ended up staying in class.
Since they sat on the bench of Junior High, according to Elvina's story. Rei and Marcell are not as close as they used to be, they have a pretty tenuous relationship. It is because of the busyness of each that makes them rarely spend time together like children used to.
Then, Miranda. Neighboring children who used to be close to him, even though their homes were far from each other, but they used to have closeness with each other until their relationship was strained after entering school. The Rei family had already considered the Miranda family as part of their family as well.
Rei looked around. Although so many people knew him in there, Rei felt foreign to the situation. He felt alien to everyone in there. Maybe because of his lost memory or something, I don't know if Rei's sure.
Somehow I feel uncomfortable being here, Rei thought. He got up from his seat and walked away from them all.
Elvina and William turned their heads in unison towards Rei who suddenly left the middle room.
"Where are you going?" William whispered to his brother.
"I don't know. But let's follow and make sure where he's going." Elvina and William wake up.
