TO BEGIN AGAIN — INGRID MICHAELSON & ZAYN But then the sun came right back And the birds sang as if nothing had happened
2020 TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AFTER
IT WAS A warm Sunday afternoon. Olivia stood in the middle of the cemetery with her hands in her pockets, nestled between Mikey and Emily. She watched as the older woman handed her niece a bundle of dahlias with a small smile.
The ten year old girl took the bundle and split it with each of her two older brothers. Together, the three Montez children carefully placed them on the headstone before them.
In Loving Memory of OLIVIA JULIETTE MONTEZ The Sun Shined Brighter Because She Was Here
To say Olivia was confused would be an understatement. One second she was in a dark room mourning her own death, and the next, she was back in Sylvia's Sweets. Except it wasn't called Sylvia's Sweets anymore, it was now called Sunset Sweets. And no one could see her, no one could hear her, and her mom looked like she was in her sixties.
She was staring at her faded signature on the wall when two boys entered the shop.
The first boy looked to be around her age while the second looked a few years younger. She thought the older one was Mikey for a split second—he looked exactly like her brother—until her mom greeted them and called him Alex. The second boy's name was Oliver. They were brothers and they called her mom 'grandma'.
Olivia knew she was dead. She spent all of her time in the dark room coming to terms with it, but nothing prepared her for finding out just how long she had been dead for.
Twenty-five years had passed.
She thought it had only been an hour since the paramedics pronounced her dead at the scene of her fatal car crash, not two and a half decades.
Olivia was shocked, and confused, and honestly on the brink of a panic attack when she found out.
When she finally calmed down, she followed her mom and the two boys home from the shop, only to find Mikey waiting for them in a house that wasn't her childhood home.
She cried when her eyes landed on Mikey for the first time. The last time she saw him, he was thirteen years old with a baby face. Now, he was in his late thirties with a wife and three kids. Not only that, but his wife was none other than Katherine Mercer.
In her disbelief, her mind went to the boys of Sunset Curve. If she was a ghost, there was a strong possibility that they were too. She spent the next few days searching Los Angeles for them.
She went to her childhood home, only to find it empty and that it now belonged to Rose and her family.
She went to their studio, also empty, but now redecorated with plants and chairs that hung from the ceiling.
