AELIA PRYSE'S POV

Where am i? Everything looks different... People are exposing their body parts and i was wearing the exact same attire as they are...

"Excuse me sir, would you kindly explain to me what is that you're holding?", i tried to touch the object but he backed away from me.

"Are you for real?", he left me at this horrible place. I saw a sign that says 'Orchard Park'.

"What is a park...?", i thought to myself and i didn't know what else to know besides sit down on a chair and stare at the surrounding.

"Maya you need to breath in and out and hopefully some kind soul would explain what happened to me."

I saw children of other religion and race playing with one another and parents were pushing a cart that has a baby inside of it...

I just didn't know what to do so i closed my eyes and tried to ignore everything around me.

"Hello, i was observing from afar and i thought you could use a drink...", a lady with blond hair passed me a plastic object that contained water.

"Pardon me, use a drink? How do i use a drink?", i asked and the lady giggled.

"I'm sorry, i meant you look thirsty and you should hydrate yourself.", she sat beside me and started to introduce herself to me.

"Hello, i'm Armaita and yourself?", she held out a hand and i have no idea what to do with it so i replied, "I am Maya Pryse."

"Maya Pryse, what a lovely name. I'm sure your parents love you.", she smiled at me.

"Pardon me madam Armaita but do you mind explaining to me what happened to this world?", i asked curiously.

She smiled at me and patiently explained what happened and apparently i was not in the 16th century anymore... I don't know what was happening then a guy was shouting from afar, "Aelia!! AELIA! Excuse me, have you seen her?"

"He seemed to have lost someone named Aelia.", i say to Armaita and she nodded. I stared at the boy from afar and he strangely looked familiar.

"Strange...My doll's name is Aelia."

Then, he saw me and started running towards me. "There you are Aelia... I've been trying to find you all day...", he was out of breath but i didn't know him at all.

"I'm sorry, her name is Maya. You must be mistaken her for someone else.", Armaita told him.

"So, that's your real name huh... I'm sorry but who are you?", he asked Armaita and i answered instead.

"She is Armaita and bless her soul for telling me everything that had happened... I'm sorry but you have the wrong person.", i said but he insisted that he was right.

"No, your last name is Pryse right? It's definitely you... When i woke up, you were gone.", he told me and then he grabbed my hand.

Armaita shoved his hand away and gave him a furious look, "Look kid, she either know you or not and by judging her facial expression, you're definitely a stranger."
