After taking blood, urine, and fecal samples, and having scans done, the doctor finally started testing my reflexes. I followed his instructions as best as I could, trying to keep my body still and respond correctly. He tapped my knees, checked my eyes, and even tested my balance. When he was satisfied, he nodded to himself and left the room.

Leaving me alone in the ward. I exhaled heavily, collapsing back against the bed. My body felt like lead, every limb heavy with exhaustion. I really needed more rest, but more than that, I needed food. My stomach growled quietly, reminding me I hadn’t eaten in hours. At least when more information came in about my condition, I would be able to absorb it without feeling lightheaded or dizzy. I sighed again and leaned back, trying to settle my back against the stiff hospital bed.

The quiet of the room felt almost too heavy. I closed my eyes for a moment, letting the silence wrap around me, but just as I was about to drift into a brief rest, the doo

    I felt a sharp cut run through my heart as I gasped in shock. Couple? The word echoed in my skull, loud and painful. The woman stared at me for a moment, then turned back to Caleb. “Are you sure you don’t know this kid?” she asked him. He shook his head. My chest tightened, and for a moment I couldn’t breathe. She stepped toward me gently, like I was some lost puppy. She took my hand and guided me to sit on the couch. “What’s your name?” she asked softly. “Eli,” I said. And the moment that name left my lips, Caleb’s eyes widened. “Can I ask you questions?” I said quietly. “In private? Then I’ll leave.” Caleb looked between me and the woman. His jaw tightened. He nodded. “Alright,” the woman said, standing up. “I’ll give you two privacy.” She walked toward the mansion entrance, and the guard followed her out. The moment the door closed, Caleb stepped closer and sat across from me. “You said your name is Eli?” he asked with a strange tone in his voice. I nodded

    We finally got to the address on the paper and the old man stopped the car. As I was about to get down, I turned to him. “Thank you for helping me. You don’t have to bother anymore. Thank you,” I said, trying my best to smile innocently. The old man nodded and smiled back. “Be careful, child.” I closed the door gently and watched as he drove off. When the car disappeared, I sighed and finally turned my attention to the house. The gate was tall. So tall that I couldn’t see anything inside. It completely blocked the view. I took a step forward and stood in front of it. I wanted to press the doorbell, but the button was too high. I tried jumping but, I failed. I tried again and I failed again. “So much for being reborn,” I mumbled in frustration and jumped a third time. My finger finally brushed the bell and pressed it. A loud click sounded from the gate as it unlocked. It opened slowly and a man in a suit stood there. He looked down at me. His expression wasn’t friendly at all.

    After some hours of driving, I started to see familiar places that I knew before I died, and soon enough, we got to Lious Street. I looked around as a small smile tugged at my lips. The street was still the same as before. Nothing changed—the same cracked pavements, the same old shops, the same people sitting outside like they had nothing else to do. It felt strange. It felt like stepping into the past and watching myself from somewhere above. “Where would you be dropping off, kid?” the old man asked me. I turned to him and smiled innocently. I pointed forward. “There. That building right there.” He looked ahead, nodded, and slowly drove the car until he stopped exactly where I pointed. I opened the door, but before I stepped down, I looked back at him. “Thank you,” I said softly. He only nodded. But even after I closed the door and started walking into the building, I noticed he didn’t drive off immediately. He stayed there, watching me, as if he wanted to make sure I didn’t en

    I hit the table angrily, unable to hold it in any longer. The loud smack startled Tutor Dew, who had been focused on the textbook in front of him. “Eli, what’s wrong?” he asked sincerely. “Is the math too hard? Do you want to stop?” His voice carried concern, and for a moment, I just stared at him. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm the storm inside me. When I opened them again, I swallowed my anger and spoke, my voice tight. “Did my dad tell you my situation?” I asked cautiously, not letting my frustration fully show. He blinked, then nodded slowly. “Yes, Eli, he explained a little.” I let the silence stretch for a few moments before I finally exploded. “I am 19 years old, Tutor Dew, not 6!” I yelled, slamming my hands on the table again. Tutor Dew blinked rapidly, clearly surprised by my outburst. Then he smiled—a soft, understanding smile. “I know, Eli. But you’ve missed out on a lot of things,” he said carefully. “Plus, I was told your IQ is behi

    “Good morning!” I said with a smile as I stepped into the dining room. The smell of freshly cooked food hit me immediately, warm and inviting. Everyone was already seated, the plates neatly arranged in front of them. Kyle’s eyes met mine, and he scowled instantly. I frowned slightly but decided to ignore him. His attitude wasn’t new. “What took you so long? We’ve been waiting for you?” Amber said, her tone sharp and frowning. I blinked at her, confused. Wait, who was she talking to? My eyes darted around the table, and then it hit me—she was staring directly at me. Slowly, I pointed to myself. Amber’s frown deepened. I swallowed hard, forcing a polite smile. My dad cleared his throat, his voice calm but commanding. “Let’s begin to eat now.” Plates scraped against the table as everyone started serving themselves. I paused for a second, glancing at my plate. Wait… were they really waiting for me before starting? I blinked rapidly, trying to process the situation. “Take, dear. Eat a

    I woke up as I opened my eyes slowly, adjusting to the light of the room. My head felt heavy, like someone had placed a stone inside it. I slowly placed my hand on my head and massaged the side, trying to reduce the sharp pain moving around my skull. When I turned, I saw my dad’s wife staring directly at me with that same fake smile. I almost jumped because I wasn’t expecting her here. “You… you are awake,” she said as she smiled at me again, that same wide smile that never reached her eyes. I stared at her for a moment before I nodded. Something about her just didn’t feel right, but I couldn’t place my finger on exactly what it was. It was like she was pretending to be gentle, but something darker was hiding underneath. Before I could think too much, the door opened. Dad came in quickly like someone had pushed him. He rushed to my side immediately. When I looked behind him, I saw that same girl who had almost crushed me with her hug. She also wore the exact same fake smile. “Fi
