See you in the afterlife {A He Xinlong ff} ON HIATUS

Chapter 3

{A/N Hi sorry I kind of died for like a week but I was so tired from my holiday that I took a little break but I'm back now. Also, from now on, I'm gonna try and upload a new chapter every Monday and I apologise if this chapter is a bit shorter than the others, but yeah, enjoy :)}

So here I am, sitting in a silent room, full of strangers, with a mind full of unanswered thoughts. No one in the room wished to speak as we all didn't know what to talk about. Also, despite the lack of speech, everyone could understand the atmosphere easily and knew no one was really in the talking mood. 

I glanced around the room out of curiosity. However, I was just met with confused looks plastered onto the faces of about 7 other men and women. 'So I'm going to have to live with these people in till my memories come back to me?' I thought to myself. As I was talking to myself in my head, the large metal door connecting our room to the hallway swung open, revealing the woman from earlier, this time accompanied with two guards. "Hello everyone. I understand that I probably didn't answer that many of your questions when we were in the arena, so I'm just popping round to each dorm to talk to you all in smaller groups and help you adapt to your new life as smoothly and quickly as possible." She stated with a warm, welcoming smile.  "So, any questions?" she asked the group. Silence filled the room once more, before a woman opposite from me raised her hand. The woman who worked at this place, whose name was Amelia if I remember correctly,  gestured for the woman to speak. "So what happened to earth and where exactly are we?" the woman with an American accent questioned. "To answer your first question, due to global warming, planet earth quickly became inhabitable for us to live on, so we had to rapidly evacuate else where. However, we legally cannot tell you where exactly we are, so all I can tell you is that we are in a safer place." That just made my brain hurt even more. Earth becoming inhabitable is understandable and makes sense, sort of, but if we weren't there, then where were we? Suddenly, I remembered about him, so I slowly raised my own hand. Amelia noticed me and turned her attention to me, followed by the rest of the group. "Are the people we met in the simulation real and if so, are they here?" I asked, hoping the answer was what I wished it was. Another smile appeared on her face as I hadn't asked a question she couldn't answer. "Every single person you met during the simulation is a real person who is also here with you. In fact, we've had many people come out of the simulation who have afterwards found the people they met there and carried on with their relationships." she answered, which made me internally smile with joy and hopefulness. So that means that he is here in this building somewhere, and we could theoretically carry on with our relationship once we get out of here. The thing is I don't know whether or not he remembers me, let alone whether he wishes to carry on with what we had. I also had to figure out how I could find him. Xinlong.
