Illiana's POV

I was already in Switzerland when I woke up from my sleep and the last thing that I remember is I was talking to Reina. I don't know how she managed to get me out of Los Angeles without the police noticing, but I'm no longer surprised about it.

She immediately checked me into a Trauma and PTSD Treatment Center and I stayed there for five months. She visits me once a month but I always refuse to see her. The reason for that is I want to avoid asking her about Sky. I decided to let go of all the people and memories that I have in Los Angeles the moment I agreed to be admitted to the center.

During the first two months of my treatment, I was forced to reminisce about the tragic moments that happened to me in the past months. It is a struggle for me because I still have to lie about it. I have to make sure that I am not giving them even a bit of an idea of what I used to be before coming to Switzerland.

When I got out of the facility, I traveled around Switzerland to learn their culture and language. I have decided that I will retire here because I love the peacefulness that it gives me.

I thought I could never live in peace but I'm wrong. No one knows about my past here and I still get to work as a Police Officer. The crime rate in Bern is very low so I'm pretty chill. I usually just sit in the station or roam around the city when I'm feeling bored.

Reina stopped coming to visit me when I got out of the center. She doesn't have my phone number and she doesn't know where I live now. Although I know that anything is possible for her, I'm glad that she finally decided to not bother me.

Although I don't want to see her, I am still very grateful that she helped me get through my PTSD. I want to completely heal and move on. There are still times that I feel sad whenever I think about the past, but I already learned to come to terms with it.

My new team is great and my sexuality didn't bother them when I outed myself. They are fun to work with and most of them are married. I always get an invite from their wives during our off and I always come because it's free food.

I am living simply in a bungalow house near the police station. I chose to live there so I can just walk to work. I also decided to adopt a male German shepherd dog so I have a cuddle buddy when I sleep at night. I named him Germs.

I was distracted and in traffic

I didn't feel it when the earthquake happened

But it really got me thinkin', were you out drinkin'?

I'm on my way to my favorite restaurant to eat lunch when I heard our rookie over the radio. He was at the Whitepod hotel right now. He responded to the report of an assault on one of the hotel's guests.

The complainant is American, as well as the assailant. The rookie is not well versed in English so he asked me to come to help him. I'm not the only one that can speak English in our department but I am the nearest one right now so I don't have a choice but to help.

Were you in the living room, chillin' watchin' television

It's been a year now, think I've figured out how

How to let you go and let communication die out~

"These Americans are always trouble" I muttered before making a U-turn. Then I turned the volume up because I'm enjoying the song.

I arrived at the hotel the exact moment the song finished because I drove fast. The manager welcomed me politely and then she led me to one of the Pods where the crime happened.
