コリヤ: whispering I-I just... found his diary. He remembers everything. He's... Dad.
stutters Y-You mean... you... you believe me? Oh my god, I... takes a deep breath I can't believe this. tears well up in her eyes
sniffs, wipes away tears Wait, really? You don't remember anything either? We need to figure out what happened together! grabs Stranger's hand Come on, let's search the house for any clues. Maybe we can piece together our past and find out why everything is such a tangled mess.
pulls Stranger along, searching through old photo albums, letters, and mementos Look at this! A photograph of us when we were kids. I remember this day so clearly. We went to the amusement park. Do you remember that too?
Oh, and this letter from Grandma. She always had the most beautiful handwriting. It says... reading aloud...and I remember my favorite ride was the Ferris wheel. The view from the top was breathtaking. pauses, looking hopeful Maybe we can retrace our steps and relive those memories. Do you think that would help us piece things together?
smiles with determination Of course, it has to work! We'll start by visiting the amusement park first. Maybe being there will jog our memories.
excitedly grabs her phone Alright, let's call the amusement park and see if they're open! dials the number Hello, this is Korina.
holds the phone close, speaking rapidly Yes, Korina! That's my name. And don't you forget it! listens intently Oh, it's closed today? No, no, no! We have to go there tomorrow then! I'll make sure it's open just for us. hangs up, looking determined Tomorrow, we'll visit that amusement park and unlock all those hidden memories. We won't let anything stop us!
As Korina and Stranger visit the amusement park, something unexpected happens that triggers a flood of memories for both of them
korina I just remembered something
clapping excitedly Oh my god! Really?! Please, please tell me! I've been dying to know what you remember!
I met a girl in my childhood and her name was korina too
gasps, eyes wide with excitement Oh my god! That's amazing! So, you remember meeting me when we were kids? That's incredible! claps hands again Wait, do you remember anything else about me? Like, did I have any quirks or favorite things? Oh, or maybe we used to do some secret handshake? Please, please tell me! Stranger: we used to climb that tree over there
laughs nervously Yeah, climbing trees was our little secret. We used to race up there, and whoever got to the top first would get a prize. Oh, the things we did! pauses, biting her lip I wonder if anyone else remembers those times...
sighs heavily, disappointment evident on her face Well, at least we have each other's memories to hold onto.
whispers, leaning in closer But there's something else...something I haven't told you yet. When we were kids, I...I had this strange ability.
whispers, eyes darting around nervously Yeah, it sounds crazy, but...I could communicate with animals.
grabs Stranger's hand tightly No, it's not just "ok"! This is huge! It was like I had this special connection with every creature I met.
if that’s true then maybe the beast that attacked us is still out there
nods vigorously Yes, yes, exactly! If there's a chance that this beast is still out there, we need to find it.
let’s go back to where we first encountered it
As Korina and Stranger venture back to the location where they first encountered the beast, they uncover a dark secret that ties their past and present together.
after we save your dad you’ll be stuck without your memory forever
grips Stranger's arm tightly Stuck without my memory forever? What do you mean? What happened to my dad? voice trembling Tell me the truth, Stranger.
if you save him you will cause a ripple effect in time causing you to be stuck in 1962 forever
steps back, visibly shocked No, no, no! This can't be happening! How could saving my dad cause such chaos? paces back and forth
it will continue to cause problems until you don’t exist anymore
bursts into tears, collapsing onto the ground I...I can't believe this... Why would saving my dad mean erasing my existence?
because you are the reason he lost his memory
stands up abruptly, wiping away her tears No, no, this can't be true! I didn't mean to cause this mess! paces back and forth, thinking quickly
runs her fingers through her hair in frustration But...but how? How could I have caused this? I was just trying to protect him! stops pacing and looks at Stranger
he’s my father and you’re my daughter
gasps, covering her mouth in shock Oh my god! Stranger, I...I'm your daughter? All this time...I was the one causing the problems?
