To Molly, no time and passed while she was inspecting Greg’s room. She felt like she had simply walked in and had done a quick glance. That was pretty far from the truth as from Greg’s perspective he watched as Molly entered and suddenly began to stare at his pile of clothes for nearly a full minute. This was confusing for Greg who simply believed that Molly was a bit taken back by the mess he had made.
“I’m sorry, I have to clean that,” Greg said to Molly who was immediately snapped out of her focus. Hearing what sounded like an Asian accent exiting Greg’s lips, Molly’s attention was directly on Greg who was confusing her greatly.
“What did you just say?” Molly asked, wanting to hear Greg speak again. As he spoke, she paid close attention to his words.
“I haven’t had time to clean that mess because of exams this week. I’m sorry Molly,” Greg said as the Asian accent failed to disappear. This was freaking Molly out at this point as she didn’t know what was going on. Looking around a bit more, she began to notice that more things were different about Greg’s room compared to before. To start, the room seemed less decorated as it felt like someone had just moved into it not too long ago. Instead of posters on the wall and items everywhere, the room was a bit more bare bones with only a few items scattered throughout.
“Greg… what’s going on?” Molly asked as Greg looked at her confused.
“Greg? Who’s Greg?” Greg replied as Molly felt her heart beginning to race. She wanted to prank Greg but now things were getting weird quickly.
“You’re Greg!” Molly replied as Greg laughed.
“Greg is a man’s name. I am Aiko.” Greg continued to have a confused look on his face as he showed no signs that he was joking. When this started, Molly began to simply believe that perhaps Greg was pranking her but now things were going on too long to be a joke. Molly began to panic as Greg continued to stare at her. “Was there a Greg who lived here before? I apologize if this is an American joke I don’t get.”
