Commonality

Austin's POV I am standing here in front of the Imperial Hospital, Quianna should insured her life as she's always entering hospital since the day we've met. I directly headed towards the information desk and asked the room of Quianna. When the lady gave me the room number, I immediately walked towards the elevator and calmly pressed the floor button where the room is located. This time, I think we should stop thinking that everything is happening unusual, for it was really unusual. We should start asking how it happened and who's behind it, that's my agenda with Quianna today. "Come in." she said upon knocking once. "You knew that I'm on my way here?" I asked her immediately and put a basket of fruits on the table beside her. "Yeah, Dylan told me." she answered and scanned the basket. "You don't have to bring something like this." She said and started picking the grapes. "This will be the last, can you stop going to hospital?" I sarcastically said to her. "You think I love these things happening around me? I experienced some supernatural events again." She complaints while munching. "What happened with you?" I asked then sat on the chair beside her. "I should be the witnessed of the car accident and later I saw myself bleeding all around, can you imagine that?" she said to me and I just chuckles. "Why are you laughing? Dylan put my employment on hold because of these events!" she exclaimed. "I think you should resign, permanently." I suggested and I saw her confused. "Stop saying that, I feel like Dylan wanted me to resign also." She answered while pouting her lips. "We have to focus to our own investigation." I said to her seriously. "What do you mean? Did you learn anything?" "I had our very first evidence or just hint where to start." I said then showed her my phone. "Who's this?" she asked after scanning the photo coming from the CCTV recording. "I also don't know." I plainly answer. "Then, how did this become the first hint?" she said, and I scrolled it down, showing the picture of file given by Drew. "He's dead but how could he be at the terror attack? Being alive and in flesh?" I explained to her. "So, are we dealing with ghosts?" she asked innocently. "Realistically, no. but supernaturally, yes." I answered and looked at me again confused. "We should start knowing who this person is, why did he die and his outside connections." "So, to sum it up, it's all your job." She said nonchalantly and just grabbing the whole bunch of grapes. "So, do I have to resign also?" I jokingly said to her. "Well, if it's necessary." She just looked at me emotionless. "Shut up, just help me. it's your father's case, remember?" I said to her, and she just released a deep sigh. "Actually, I have no idea what's my father's job, why is all the things he does is always a secret, where is he going, who are his colleagues and even which company is he." She explained. "But your father own's this hospital, right?" I asked. "No, this hospital is my grandfather's, father of my mom. Mom inherited it and dad is just a medical practitioner here." "Then, why are you working at a food company?" "I have no interests in medical. I can't have the burden to save every patient I may have." She explained sadly. "Is that so? But I really think you should stop working at that company. This hospital much needs you." I said to her. "How can you say that?" "I believe board members are being unstable right now. Knowing that your father died, you don't have any support coming from the doctors itself." I explained then gave her some water. "So, should I talk to doctors?" she asked. "Yes, and solve your father's case. After all, I am very much interested of who's behind those unusual messages." I said to her and she just smiled. "Yeah, me too. I think you should go for now." She said. I looked at the wall clock and it's almost time for visitors to leave the hospital. "Alright, then I'll be waiting for your recovery." I said then said her goodbyes. Yana's POV (The other Quianna) I can see that she decided to team up with Austin, this is the best choice she has and the choice I should've done in the first place. I really should help them to get through this case and I should warn her about the evilness of that guy. I can't believe it even if we are living in different world, I should've seen all the meanings behind his words to me, I am such an idiot. I followed Austin after he talked to Quianna at the hospital. I should also protect him, even if I'll be leaving this world soon. Both of them may be wondering how and why I am sending them both messages that states the future happenings. I came from the future as anyone would guess, and I failed with this mission because of one choice I made at the beginning. I continue discovering things of why and how deaths happened unexpectedly, but I cannot catch them by myself. I see myself standing in front of the police station, maybe Austin came back from his first investigation. I am relieved that he saw that man in the CCTV recording, the thing I ignored when it happened to me. I just waited for the police to find the killer until he's been discovered cold and lifeless, my first regret after that incident happened. I stare at the signage of police station 'Police of the people, protectors of nation', they should be embarrassed of how they made my life miserable, how I wanted to end my life. But I found hope, I found Aina who's been living between two worlds. I know it sounds ridiculous, but it happened. She approached me mistaking that I am the Quianna living with her, when she knew about my situation, having no one to rely on, she offered me to spend my days living with her. In my world, Aina is dead and it's my fault of why it happened. When I saw her again, I cried all night while staring at her place, then a glitch happened. I never knew, my other self, living in this world would spend her night with Aina. If I did not saw Dylan coming in at the apartment, I would've made myself died before I finished my revenge. In these parallel worlds, Aina is our commonality, the person who will always accept me even if I have different versions of me. I went back here at Aina's apartment, I know shouldn't be staying here knowing that this world's Quianna might come back again. But I have no choice, I cannot let myself seen by other people who came from other worlds. The man Austin saw came from this world but I don't know why he's dead by the records, looks like the fusion is near. "Quianna!" Aina yelled at me and she's about to enter her apartment. "Hi Aina." I just greeted back. "Let's go in and have dinner." She offered me, but not this time. She's not meant to stay in her apartment. *Phone rings* "Hello Dylan?" she said upon answering the phone. When she answered that, I vanished from her sight erasing the memories she has. I can erase memories, if I hold the hand of a person from different world as mine, I can alter their thoughts and erase their memories, by this way, time paradox would not happen. "What happened to Quianna?" I heard she exclaimed. Yeah, she should be staying at this world's Quianna and not by mine. "Alright, I'll be right there immediately." She said then ended the call. I saw her fetching some taxi on her way to the hospital. I continue wandering on places that this world has to offer. This is really the same as mine, the difference is that I am not alone here. I have my friends, my partner, and my mother. I also fetch some taxi and told the driver to go to the Imperial Estate, place where our house is located. I missed mom and I missed the place where I lived. Upon arriving I secretly peek through the glass windows of the house, checking if mom is home. Oh right, she also visited me that day, so I guess she's still at the hospital right now. To avoid any confusion of why I am hospitalized today, I got into an accident at the playground, this is the day I knew that mom died, got shocked and crashed at the place. But today is different, someone drove the car, but I still have no idea why I am still hospitalized, and that woman vanished. Did she come from my world? If yes, then I really should help them. If by any chance, I should find way on who to closely interact with them and tell everything before it's too late. ---
