Part 31 - Next to it

Rebecca

I woke up from the noise outside the room. I scanned the whole surroundings, the room to be exact and I noticed that this is not the place I usually rest. This room is not mine.

The last time I remembered was when I was in the street, curling up under the rain and her, I saw her.

I tried to stand up once again, I know I'm not in the other world because it's only 1 o'clock in the afternoon based on the clock inside the room. We won't have a switch until it's the other day around.

"Bec, thank God you're okay" Freen went rushed inside the room, looking worried than she'll ever be. I haven't seen her this worried before, maybe my presence looks too pitiful that she can't even control her reaction.

"Thank you" I exclaimed as I leaned in the headboard. "Sorry, I brought you in my house, I also told the house helper to change your clothes carefully so you can rest. What on earth happened? Do you have any thoughts or can you explain what - - -

"Calm down Freen, I'm alright. I just need to talk to you about something. Have you heard my voicemail? "

She nodded and went to sit in the chair beside the bed where I'm sitting at.

"I don't know if you're gonna believe me but the alternative universe I mentioned to you back then is real. I once woke up in the place where you exist, the same features as you, the same voice only with a different character in front of me. We were close in there like we're living in the same roof or what. Then when I saw my face in the mirror, I have a shorter hair with an eyebrow piercing like a bolder look of me - - - but her name's Patricia"

She looks like she's listening and analyzing the things intently enough for me to know that she's with me.

"After a day interval, I  woke up with this body and I'm clueless about everything. Did you remember the time I grabbed you when you while you were talking with Mr. Heng? That wasn't me. I only found out about it when Non told me more - - -

"Oh, Non" I can't clearly tell if she rolled her eyes when I mentioned his name or what and speaking of Non, I have a lot of explaining to do in here.

"That wasn't me too Freen, believe me. This bruises in here was caused by her, I don't have any clue on what she did but to think that she picked a fight with students the last time you told me, maybe she did the same thing now. She's a literal badass and she's getting out of control. I'm not even doing something when I'm in her body - - - -

"Wait, so you're telling me you were inside her body when she's at yours?" she interrupted.

"Yes, more like it. I remembered the time when I was there and I met a few people named Nam and Noey and they said I was their some sort of a group leader or what - - -

"They are a group of bada-sses? and with Nam and Noey?" her brows furrowed as if she's trying to clarify something.

"Yes, why?"

"N-nothing, please continue"
she threw in a side glance at the other direction and I think the names I mentioned rang a bell on her.

"Then everything seemed so advance there, a whole different era and I'm convinced this is all because of quantum mechanics. I mean I had a proof about that, when the time I got drunk and you, uhh you drove me h-home...

I hesitated telling that part because that's when we had an argument.

"I woke up with a heavy headache and the Freen there said I went out with Nam and Noey for a drink and I had too much but in reality - - - -

"but in reality you were also drunk the night before it" she continued, nodding her head like she's had some sort of a point.

"Yeah that's for the theory I mentioned. We can both do things at once. I was actually dumbfounded about everything in there because you acted different the same way I and Patricia differs - - -

"How do I behave in there?" she asked curiously with her gaze focused in me. I can't concentrate because she's like she's reading my whole being.

"Weird. I mean it was weird for me because you gave me morning kisses, cooked my breakfast and even painted a portrait of me" I can't look her in the eyes after I said those details. It's making me awkward because she might think I'm kind of delusional for her to be serving me.

"Wow, that was actually cute. I wonder if I could meet that one. So that was why you asked me if I was the Freen you were seeing on that other side the last time?"

"Y-yeah. I'm sorry about that I shouldn't have force things with you - - -

"No Bec it's okay. Have you noticed anything strange there?" she questioned again. I bet she's starting to believe me and this whole thing I'm currently in.

I almost forgot what I am in a rushed for earlier. I was about to ask her the locket that I've found.

"Uhm, there was this time when we were talking and I saw the Freen there went into the drawer inside of my room and took something from it. I saw it and it was a locket - - -

" A locket??! What about it??" she looks bewildered to the point she even cut me off from my own words.

"It was the same thing as the one I found in the side of the street when I walked home from work. It has a moon carved outside of it with an inner message the universe - - - -

"the universe is within me" she continued then again. I was astonished with the fact that she knew what was written inside of it. The locket was in the pocket of the shirt I was wearing and I don't know where exactly is it.

"How did you know?" I asked her but she looked surprised and confused at the same time.

She took her phone and scrolled through it. "D- does that look like this?" her face looked in horror as she showed  me a picture from her phone.

It was the same as the one Freen was holding back then and the same as the one I found but it shocked me more when I saw what lies beside it - - - -

A lifeless body.
