Quianna"s POV I am still lying here inside the room of hospital ward, Austin and I were both alone in the room as Aina told me that she has important to do with her work. This is very awkward even though Austin"s curtains were shut, and I am the only one who can see the whole room. I get up and sit properly, I find lying down is a very tiring position especially if you cannot move that much, you must lie down straightly as possible. So, to avoid any uncomfortable positions, I just forced myself to get up and sit on my own. My bed is located beside the window, so if I sat back, I could see the outside, especially the sky and tall buildings, I just stare for a while and let out a deep sigh- I don"t have time lying around like this, I just thought. But I cannot do anything as I can still weak due to the huge explosion. "Are you really alright?" I heard Austin"s voice while his curtains are still close. "Yeah, I could be discharge tomorrow." I confidently answered him. "Really?---" "SIR!!!" I heard someone yelled upon opening the door and some are crying. They firstly looked at me and when they saw my face, they quickly walked towards the bed in front of me. I forcedly opened the curtains, and I can see Austin sitting comfortably and our eyes locked while he"s being hugged by some men who entered the room. "Sir! Are you okay? Did you know how worried I am?" one of the guys said and I think he"s still crying because of him. "Jason! I"m alright just don"t hug me that tight." Austin said while removing the guy"s arms around him. Austin is still looking at me and I just scoff in disbelief, he looks disgusted by it. "What happened? Why did you not ask for back up?" another guy asked him, but his personality seems serious and uptight. "It happened very fast, I did not think of doing it." Austin just answered. "Here, we got you some fruits." Another guy said and put the basket of fruits on his side table. After their tear-jerking reunion, that"s the only time they looked at me and looked at Austin like there are exchanging looks, asking why we are together in one room. I just gave them a smile and lie down comfortably, I grabbed the remote control beside me, and the curtains began to close slowly, I also put out the lamp beside me- saying that I need to rest. After I did that, I realized that the room began silent of all a sudden, looks like they don"t want to disturb me or something. "Why are you with Ms. Ross?" I heard one of them asked. That"s right, this is the perfect time to ask everything to him, when they thought I was already sleeping. "She"s just coincidentally at the scene." I heard Austin answered. "Then why are you sharing a room with her?" another one asked. I can distinguish the difference through their voices. "The wards are full when I got in." he plainly answers. "But why are looking at her like that?" everyone became silent when he was asked with that. "Jason, what nonsense are you saying?" Austin asked in his authoritative voice. "Sorry sir, but you looked at her differently." I think his name is Jason. "How different is it the way I"m looking at you compared to her?" Austin asked. "You"re looking at me like you"re going to punch me." Jason answered innocently. I just scoff about it but quickly covered my mouth in case they would notice that I"m still awake. "Well, you"re seeing it right. So shut up before you lie here instead of me." Austin coldly said to him. "Right, sorry sir." Jason just said and silence filled the room again. "But what really happened? Upon we arrived at the scene the bomber disappeared." I heard someone said. The bomber disappeared? Why? He can"t escape in his state like that. Did his body got pulverized? Well, I don"t think so, if we"re both alive right now, then the explosion is not huge as we expected. What really happened? "Don"t just whispered alone there, just open your curtains." I heard Austin said, but is he referring to me? Am I whispering that loud? I just got up and stood up, I tried to walk on my own, but my legs are still weak. So, I just opened the curtains and let them see me. "Did you hear it?" I awkwardly asked them, and he just nods at me. "Just for the sake of formality, I would like introduce my team to you. This is Aaron." Austin said and pointed to the serious looking type of guy, and he just gave me a light nod. "This is Jason, the crazy one." He continued and the Jason guy just smiled and waved his hand to me. "And this is James." The one who put the fruits on the table. "Hi, I"m Quianna, you can just call me with my name." I said to them. "Then Ms. Quianna—" "Just Quianna, it"s alright." I said to Jason. "Alright, then Quianna, are you also at the scene? Why are you there?" he asked, and I just looked at Austin. "Uhh, I just know someone working there." I plainly answered. "And you?" Jason asked and looked at Austin. "You?" he answered. "You sir? Hehe." Jason said and gave him a peace sign. "The unidentified corpse, remember?" Austin said and Jason nods. "Right, whoa! What a coincidence, is all because of your fate?" Jason exclaimed. Fate, my foot. We were just played by some people who are professional in using technology and future. Everything that are happening today is not just a mere incidence wherein we don"t have any knowledge or idea about it, we knew everything, someone kept on sending us warnings and scenarios that will happen in just a snap of fingers. "Shut up, aren"t you going home?" Austin asked, but it"s a wrong move as they looked at us. "You want us to leave?" Aaron said. "Just the two of you alone?" James asked. "You"re so fast, sir." Jason finally said. This is bad, Austin just let out a deep sigh. I expect him to beat them up or yell them out but instead, Austin just smiled at him, and he patted Jason"s shoulder. "Should I put down my badge and kill all of you right away?" Austin calmly asked and Jason stood up immediately. "You"re right, we should leave." Aaron said and began dragging the two. "But sir remember to use enough protection!" Jason yelled and Austin threw his pillow, but Jason avoided it and began laughing even outside the room. Austin stood up and picked up his pillow, he"s like avoiding himself to look at me. He"s embarrassed, I can"t believe it. Should I tease him more? Will he kill me too? I can"t stop laughing, it"s so funny. "Stop snorting there, just laugh if you want." Austin said and I just can"t control it anymore, I burst out laughing loud enough for my eyes to start releasing it"s tears, just tears of joy, literally. "Are you now, okay?" he asked as I began wiping my tears out. "Whoa, that was a good laugh. Your friends are very funny." I said to him, and I can still remember how they teased him up. "They"re all crackheads, you can forget them anyway." he said and sat on his bed. "I won"t forget them, they"re good people." I answered. "Of course, they should be, they"re polices after all." He said and grab some apples from the basket, he just wipe it with his own clothes and started eating. "You want some?" he asked, and I just shook my head, and he continued eating right away. "What"s your next plan?" he asked, and I looked at him. "Actually, I"ve been into this secret organization, someone showed me the experiments going on in that exact building and how they started studying parallel worlds." I said to him, and he put down the apple. "Parallel worlds? Why did you not tell me about this immediately?" he asked and moved towards me. "I got no time, mom"s corpse was seen and now we got into an accident." I explained and he just nods. "Right, so what happened in that place?" he asked. "It"s like a torturing den to me, people were experimented in that place and their body were all subjected to tests that even the scientists don"t know the effect or result." I answered. "Then we should check them out." He aggressively said. "No, we cannot." I said to him and started fidgeting my fingers. "What are you talking about?" he asked cluelessly. "It"s Aina"s dad we"re talking here." I confessed and he did not say anything. "That"s insane. Does Aina know about this?" he asked. "I don"t think so. If she does, then there"s no reason for her not to say it to me. His dad claimed that he does those experiments with my dad. It"s an old project but dad died, and he wanted me to inherit the hospital for the organization to continue its life." I explained further. "But isn"t that illegal? They"re playing with people"s rights, you said they are experimenting people there." He insists. "I know and I also feel uncomfortable with it, but what can I do? It"s my father"s legacy." I answered and let out a deep sigh. "Then is there a chance we"ll see the person who kept on messaging us?" he asked. "No, if we all meet, one of us would die. Whether our copies or us, who actually lives in this world." I answered. "But what if the people you"re also seeing are not actually living the same world as ours?" he asked in a rhetorical way, no one could ever answer it. ---
