I am so grateful that Nicky is okay. I was worried. While he was sick, I couldn't help but think what would happen if he died. What would I do with myself. But I can't think those thoughts. He's fine.
Once we get home, I put him in his bed to rest. I go for a walk and try to clear my mind. And that's when I bump into him. His face is so familiar, but I can't seem to think of where I know him from.
I spilt his coffee all over him and I continuously apologize. He just calms me down and says it's all okay. I then gaze into his eyes and it hits me. He's my sister ex boyfriend.
"Oh my goodness! Hi! How are you?"
"Oh you remember me?"
"Yes. How's everything going?"
"It's okay. I'm sorry about your sister! How's ou-I mean, her son?"
"He's okay. Just a little ill. And thank you for your condolences."
"Of course. I hope everything is okay. I have to go now. Have a splendid day."
He rushed off in quite a hurry. He seems like a strict rule follower. But whatever. I just keep walking and my feet had brought me to my sisters grave. The Contraility let's us visit past loved ones but only if we have followed the rules for the day. I miss my sister so much. But as much as I love visiting my sister, I know the set up is coming soon, I have to get home.
