"This is your last day in the hospital, so I decided to visit you," she said then smiled at me.
"Last day? It means I am going home?" My body became alive.
"Yes, don't change the topic, Aliyah! Your parents said, even your grandmother, that Dr. Dizon is so fond of you. Tell me, what's with you?" Her eyes narrowed.
I shook my head. "Nothing, we are just sharing common interests and then we became friends. What's so wrong about that?"
She pouted to prevent herself from smiling widely. "Nothing, I just thought you are already getting yourself a boyfriend. I was about to congratulate you."
I rolled my eyes. "Why you are all pushing me to have a boyfriend?"
"You are getting older, Aliyah! Wake up! You are not forever young, you can't be single forever," she exclaimed.
Does Henry count? I had a relationship with him although it didn't last.

I am a professional doctor; I won't do anything that ruins my reputation. Now, look at me," he said.I slowly lifted my head to meet his eyes. He smiled then kissed my forehead. He always does that; I am used to it."Do you trust me like the first time you willingly gave your life into my hands?" he asked seriously.I bit my lower lip then nodded. "I trust you; I can still feel a little pain, but it is bearable now. Thank you for your continuous care."He made me lay down on my bed. I don't

It freaked me out so much. I never wanted to go out again. What is that old lady talking about?! I nearly thought she was crazy but when my mother said they are close friends for a very long time, I lost it."Why don't you accompany your Papa on the farm? He will take your grandpa too," my mom said while cooking our breakfast."I don't want to go out. It is not safe yet," I answered, making excuses again.My mom made a face then looked at me with suspicion. I sighed and directed my eyes onto something else."What is it that's bothering you?

I quickly run to my room. For the second time, I am so embarrassed about myself!My mother entered my room with that angry face. "What are you doing? Aren't you supposed to greet your guest?""Mama, I don't want to greet my guest with a face like this!" I pointed to my oily face and my tangled hair. "I smelled like poop and why didn't you tell me it's Doctor Dizon who am I going to meet? I thought it's Gail."I get some decent clothes then cleaned myself. Thank goodness, this room has a built-in bathroom. I didn't know how I managed to get dressed and put some make-up on in just 20 minutes.

This family is probably gone crazy. Why are they blaming me for their family problem? How can I suppose to talk to a dead person and fix their problem that I was not involved from the start?"You are crazy. You are all crazy! I can't believe that I came here and just listened to your delusional story. Hah! I need to get out of here before I, too, go crazy."

"Wait!" I shouted but the two men completely disappeared into the crowd.Where am I? This place is completely different from the street where I was hit by a car. And, where the hell is that car? How come I was safe and unharmed after that intense hit?I quickly checked myself. I was so shocked when I saw what I am wearing.

I closed my eyes and continue slapping myself.I opened my eyes and I'm still stuck in this place. The people were now looking at me with confusion. They are now probably thinking that I am crazy. Yes, my right state of mind will be gone if no one can explain to me what the heck is going on?!Am I really in 1950? The place looks old, and the people look so old too. What am I going to do?I walked around, there are so many people
