Heaven's P.O.V.

"Harvey. My grandson!"the old lady said.

That's when I saw the boy in front of me in the ground.

I knelt my knees and shook the boy's shoulder.

"Hey!hey!" Trying my best to wake him up. But no to avail.

The old lady knelt the same position as mine.

"Vey! Vey!" She called to him. But still he didn't move an inch. The only thing that moved in his body was his chest.

He's still alive, that's a relief.



Harvey's P.O.V.

'Son...'

Someone called me.

'Son... .'

The voice was echoing around the place.

I don't know what place this is but all I could see was a bright white room.

"Who's there?"

'Son... .'

**

I opened my eyelids to see I'm not in the white room anymore.

I was laying in bed.

'What happened?'

The place looks familiar to me.

This is where we used to visit every summer of holidays..

The room that I always stay in.

I used my elbow to shift my position so that I could sit.

Everything was still organized. The shelves still has the books I used to read. The picture frames that hang on the wall are still there. My album that has my pictures from childhood until the last time that we've visited here.

'I miss this place.'

Carefully, I walked towards the door.

I passed some doors and finally descended downstairs.

There I heard some giggling sounds. Then a familiar voice said.

"Sure dear. You can stay in the room where my daughter used to stay when she was here."

I was nearing the living room by now.

"Thank you very much. I won't be a burden. I promise."

That's where I saw the girl in the hospital, and she's talking to my grandma.

When I was at the door frame, the girl was the one who turned to face me. We held eyes and I find her eyes aluring.

Her eyes seems observant. Looking at me intently.

*ahem*

A cough suddenly broke me out of my gaze.

At first I kept a cold face, but when I saw granny I put on a smiley face.

Grandma half-walk and ran towards me. Finally engulfing me to a tight hug. On which I returned.

"Finally your awake!"you can hear the happiness in grandma's voice.

"What happened ?"I asked. Not able to recall what happened after I was at the lobby.

"You fainted dear." I gave her a confused look. "The doctor said it might be because of your injuries that made you weak. I asked them what happened but they didn't know. "She stopped talking and looked at me questionaly. "What happened?"her voice was laced with concern.

'Should I tell her?'

She might get mad and confront them.

And I don't want to see them ever again.

"I just fell from the stairs." I lied.

"Are okay now dear?"she looked at my injuries. "Does it still hurt?"she asked then turned me side to side to check if I was okay.

"I'm fine granny." I said trying to convince her. Though I still feel kind of hurt. Physically and emotionally.

"Ok, good. Come with me in the kitchen. Lunch is ready."she said as she guided me to the dinning hall.

She stopped and turned her head at the back of us and said." Come with us dear."

I turned to find the girl in the hospital.

'She's still here?' I thought to myself.

The girl nodded and gave granny a warm smile.

Granny must have noticed the confuse look on my face.

"I'll tell you later, deary."

-

After lunch granny and I went to the living room. Granny told the girl to stay at the terrace for a while, while the both of us talk.

"Tell me granny."

"Well.... the poor girl doesn't know her identity. She doesn't even know what's her name. So I offered her a stay here as long as she wants."

"Granny, she could be a thief!"I exclaimed. She knows my reason.

My grandma has been letting people stay at her house. And her reason is because she pity them. And in the end, some things got stolen.

"Come on. Please deary. Granny just wants to let her stay. Look at her."she said pointing the girl's direction."she looks nice, kind and trustworthy. I'm sure she's a kind person."

I stared at the girl's back.

She then turned to our direction as if she could sense someone is watching her.

... ... .

"So agree or disagree?"granny said.

"But granny, what if she's like them?"

"If your so worried that she might do something bad. Then, watch her."she suggested. There was a hint of a color red in her eyes, but it lasted for a split second. There was a hint of ... . mishief? I couldn't tell if it was just my imagination or if it was true. I erased the thought and went back to my old self.

"Watch her?" I confirmed.

"Yes. So that you will feel contented."

"Agree... . But... ."

"But what?"

"But if i catch her do something, you better believe me and report her ."

"Sure deary."she said lovingly and patted my head. I love my grandma. But sometimes she got this thing that makes me agree to her even though my mind refuses.

"Good."she chirped."and Vey, show her around will you?"

With that. She left.





Heaven's P.O.V.

I was by the terrace when I felt someone's presence behind me.
