'You look beautiful in that white dress. Too bad your boyfriend is not here to feast his eyes!' The message on my phone read.
My head whipped up, and I looked around frantically. Sweat dripped my face even in the cold weather. He was here?
'Na ah! D...

Catherine's POV:
"This isn't right", I muttered.
I crushed the paper and threw it into the dustbin. A pile of paper was scattered across the kitchen counter. I sighed and took a fresh one to work on my assignment.
A tear drop fell on it. The tears increased and I couldn't stop it. I pushed away all the things from the counter and covered my face with my hands. I never wanted to go through this again.
"Baby, look at me." A once familiar voice called me.
The voice that I wanted to wake up to everyday. I took my hands away from my face. My eyes widened at the sight. The man I loved was standing right in front of me.
James Matthew.
He was just the way he always was, with his black hair combed neatly; brown eyes that gleamed whenever he was happy and the smile that made me forget about everything else. I found myself smiling involuntarily.
"James." My voice broke a little as I tried to control the sob.
"I love you baby, but-" he looked down at the ground and I knew he was going to say it again to my face.
"James." I called again but he didn't lift his head.
"He can't be with you." Another familiar voice drew my attention.
He stood right next to him, smirking. My muscles tensed up at the sight of him.
Brian, my brother.
"I told you he would leave you. But you didn't listen. Look where it has got you!", he said.
"Shut up!" I said. I didn't want to hear this again.
"I always care about you Catherine. It was fo-" he continued.
"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!" I screamed, hoping my voice was loud enough to overlap his words.
"Catherine! Catherine!" Daniel yelled. He was now standing in the place where they were. But now they were gone.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"Brian. James." I muttered, trying to analyse what had just happened.
"What happened? Who are they?" he asked.
Just then I realized I was getting those visions again. All because of Michael! I remembered that I forgot to take my medicines. I picked up my bag and went through my belongings. The tablets were inside a brown cover. I took out the ones I needed for the morning.
"Can I have some water?" I asked Daniel.
He nodded and walked to the fridge. He came back with a bottle of water and placed it on the counter. I swallowed the tablets and drank the water. My breathing was shallow and I gasped for air. Why did this have to happen all over again?
