"So, are you feeling okay now?" Elijah broke the awkwardness and silence between us.All that was heard was Yanna's ipad playing.

"Yeah I feel good." I smiled.

Who really are these people infront of me? Why do they keep appearing in my sleep?

"Oh okay great! Then I'm going to grab you a sna-"

I cut him off. "Who really are you?" I can't take it anymore. I'm too curious my mind is a mess!

He was caught off guard. His eyes were turning wet and che carefully stood up. "What do you mean?" Hé furrowed his eyebrows.

"Mr. Quinn who are you?" I paused and looked straightly to his eyes.

He gulped.

"You keep on appearing in my dreams. It's like I've known you years ago but I don't remember a thing!" I started tearing up.

"Val? Are you okay? I think you're having illusions" he asked.

Illusions? These are not illusions. They felt so real that also emotions were real. My heart aches thinking that they can be lying and my dreams were real.

"Well, I am in no position to answer your question" Elijah cleared his throat.

"B-But you and yanna...." I pointed out a giggling yanna. " your daughter, keep appearing in my freaking dreams and that make me crazy because I kind if feel connection" i started tearing up.

"V-Valerie please I don't want to inter-"

"Valerie sweetie I brought you snacks!" My mom cut off Elijah and barged in.

"Oh I'm sorry did I disturb you guys?" Mommy looked shocked.

"Ah hindi po tita, uh we just had a talk" Elijah looked at me and gave mommy a meaningful look.

"Ah is that so?" Does my mom know something? I doubt.

"Uh yanna, come here honey" Elijah smiled.

"Why daddy?" She looked at his dad who was now on her level.

"Baby we have to go okay?"

"Already?! But daddy I want to stay longer and look you mad my mommy cry!" She pointed at me and pouted.

I smiled.

"Yanna, no sweetie. Uhm your dad didn't make me cry, I just got something on my eye" I wiped my eyes.

"Why don't we have dinner? An early dinner perhaps" mom again talked.

"Mom?" I looked into her happy yet painful stare.

"Well anak, your dad just texted me and he said na pauwi na sya so why don't we just go grab dinner?"

"Sure po." Elijah agreed.

Hmm this guy's so quiet huh.

"Ok, yeah sure I guess"

"Now get up Valerie. You look so stressed out what happened to you?"

"Nothing mommy, just the dreams again"

"Hmm, okay mag ayos ka na dun and we're heading out. I'm going to tell the others they can have an early out for today" she smiled and got out the room.

"Sige Val, we're gonna step out for a moment so you can get fixed up" I nodded.

I looked myself at the mirror. "Is this really my life? Am I related to these people? UGHH!" I'm tired with all these dreams, this dream is so real I cantttt!
