Chapter 20: From Exchange Diary to First Meeting

Good morning

Morning in the living room, Mami was there.

Mami was staring at the ceiling, but when I called out to her, she faced here.

I remembered last night, Ill caress her again, I thought of that and approached.

move

Mami passed through my side, and went out of the living room.

A-re?

I tilted my head.

It was 180 degrees different from last night, her attitude was like*TsunTsun*.

Did I do something that made her mad without knowing? But even if you say that, I just went to sleep after that

I didnt have a clue at all on what had happened.

When I was tilting my head like that, from far away,*Shapan*I heard a water sound like that.

It was the sound of large amount of water being thrown, I heard it from outside of the house.

I went outside. Coco was there.

A very lovely girl with dog ears that has a smaller body figure than Mami, Coco.

Coco was wet, but*BuruBuru*she shook her body, and flicked the water.

It was the same gesture like a dog.

What happened?

Im sorry, probably, I think it was Mami

Probably?

Yes

Coco said that and looked at her feet. There was an empty bucket there.

The water that was on her was probably the one inside the bucket.

Are you saying Mami dropped water on herself and changed to you?

Yesprobably, thats right

Probably? Mami has the same body but different personality than you right? Dont you know?

Mami and I cant talk directly to each other desu. If we really wanted to talk, like this

Coco squatted on her spot, reaches out her finger to the ground, and writes words by tracing on it.

Like this, after writing a letter, we drop water to ourselves desu

Exchange lettno, like an exchange diary, huh

I meanthats inconvenient, and has no ends.

I was thinking of it surely, that you can talk to each other inside your mind. Thats the cliche too on multiple personalities

Coco tilted her head, its a face that she had no clue about what I was talking about.

Then, you really had not talked to each other even once. Even hear each others voice?

Not at all desu

Fumu

I pinched my chin, and thought.

Within more than a thousand Grimoires that Ive read, I searched inside of my head a magic than can be used within that thousand.

There was only one, that seemed to be useful.

Can you not move for a while?

I told Coco, and reached out my palm, and chanted the magic.

Time Shift

Light envelopes Cocos body.

The next instance, Mami appeared on her side.

Eh?!

Eh?!

The two were surprised at the same time.

YouCoco?

Are you Mami desuka?

Facing each other itself, seems to be their first time. The two looked at each other and was surprised.

Coco looked at me.

W-What is happening desuka?

Its the magic called Time Shift. If I say it very simply, its the magic that borrows what originally in the future temporarily

Future?

Right, Mami who is there, I brought her from about 5 minutes later, the future Mami

I cant understand what youre talking about though

Mami made a frowning face, and looked at me.

Maybe I should explain it a little more simple huh.

I made it that you can meet each other for five minutes using magic

So that was the case!

Being able to do that, who the hell are you

Rather than that

I placed a hand on the twos shoulder, and made them look at each other.

Coco and Mami, a girl with dog ears and a girl with cat ears.

The two of them looked at each other.

I-Its nice to meet you Im Coco desu

I-I know it, something like that. That fur, I always look at them fallen you know

Im the same desu! Mamis smellI was always sniffing at the lingering scent desu

Is that so. Youyour voice sounded like that

Mamis face looks like that huh

The two of them looked at each other very intently.

*PetaPeta*they touched, and confirms how they feel, both of them.

Mami!!

Coco was seemed like she was moved, she jumps and hugs Mami.

W-What are you doing!

I wanted to meet you desu, I wanted to meet you ever since desu

At first, Mami seemed troubled, but to Cocos confession, she squints her eyes.

Coco who was hugging, she hugged her back softly.

Seeing the cat and dog that were touching each other was very pleasant.

Finally, the time has come.

Just like the time that she appeared, Mami disappeared in an instant.

Mami?

Its time limit

Is that sothank you very much. Thanks to you, I had met Mami

Thank goodness huh

Yes!

Well then, it should be recovered then

Recover?

Coco looks strangely, I took the bucket, and scooped water.

Just like that without saying anything, I splashed water to her.

Kya!

Coco changed to Mami.

The same when I woke up this morning, to Mami who was*TsunTsun*.

Wait, what are you doing

3, 2, 1here

Mami suddenly disappeared. It was the after payment of the Time Shift, and she jumped to five minutes before.

Right now, she should be meeting Coco.

no, she jumped back to the past so it isnt right now huh

*Khukhu*I laughed. It was somehow funny.

And there, I waited five minutes. Mami returned.

Welcome back. Did you meet her properly

I met her right

Well, thats good

I had used Time Shift itself, but I hadnt used it on living things, so I was a bit worried.

But it looks liked it succeeded, so its good.

Coco and Mami, I remembered the appearance of the two of them hugging each other.

Sometime soon, I should let them meet each other, I thought.

thanks

Mami mumbled something. I was thinking about things, so I couldnt hear it.

Did you say anything?

! Its nothing!!

Mami said that, and went away.

I saw that she was grinning while she went away, so I more and more thought, that it was good that I did that.
