DAWN ZULUETA.

"I'll be there tomorrow night," said a familiar voice in my head. I opened my eyes and realized it was Richard who said that. Trying to get my consiousness back, I blinked hard a couple of times. Then finally, I was really awake. Still, it was that same voice I was hearing.

"Singular, Dawn and that lady is you," that same voice kept echoing in my head... Even in my heart.

Just Richard's.
