The Rain is Pouring

The alarm made a loud buzzing sound.

Aliana woke up from her sleep expecting that everything was just a dream, but instead, she found herself in a hospital bed. Her room was luxurious. She wondered if this was her Uncle's doing, but it wasn't.

A middle-aged woman entered the room with a few well-dressed men behind her.

'She looks wealthy,' Alia thought to herself.

The moment the woman saw the girl inside, awake already, she hurriedly went to hug her.

"Sweetie... Are you alright?" the woman asked.

Alia was dumbfounded. She just stared at the woman for quite some time.

"Why? I know mom is pretty, but don't give me that look..." she laughed softly.

Alia finally had the energy to utter something, "Excuse me, but who are you?" she asked, still unable to grasp what was happening.

She must be upset with her mother, but Alia won't forget her mom's face.

The woman confusedly asked one of the men to alert the doctors.

"Are you really okay, sweetie? Does it hurt somewhere?" the woman asked, then sighed.

"I told you not to drive when the weather is bad..." the woman added as she caressed Alia's hair.

'Huh? I don't drive...' Ashy thought to herself. What is going on?

Alia's PoV;

A few moments later;

The doctors came to check on me while the woman watched with a worried look.

After they took some tests, they came to the woman and said, "We looked into her MRI and think that she might have temporary amnesia caused by the accident. Since it is just temporary, she can regain her memories within a period." the woman looked at me, worriedly and turned gaze back to the doctors.

"Let her take plenty of rest and sleep and within a few days, she may go home. I will prescribe medicines to help with the pain," they added.

"Thank you, Doc." the woman said softly. Then walked slowly up to me.

She then caressed my hair and said softly, "Don't worry, sweetie. I will take care of you."

"But for now, I need to take care of something. I love you," she added before she left along with the 2 men she came with. The other 2 remained in their position by the door to guard me, outside.

I suddenly had the urge to reach for the mirror then I saw a face I never imagined having.

'Scarlett Lee?' I thought to myself.

Hindi ako pwedeng magkamali. This is the face of the most popular girl in school with the most perfect life.

"Pero, paano ko siya naging kamukha?" I asked softly.

I suddenly remembered the accident. I saw her in the driver's seat! Siya yung nakabangga sakin!

Does that mean we switched bodies? I need to find her if ever.
