The year is 1969. Leonard Lowe, a catatonic patient at a local hospital in the Bronx borough of NYC, doesn't seem to have any prospects of a normal future. He's either laying in bed, or strapped to a wheelchair - additionally, he never leaves the confines of the bleak hospital in which he resides. 
One day, however, when a new doctor starts working at the institution, Leonard's life changes forever. But how long will it last? And when a new nurse starts working at the hospital a couple of months after the first one, will more drama start brewing?

Cover made by @denirosgirl. This story is dedicated to her.

For what reason does one wake up every day? People had always thought the life of ISAAC RUIZ couldn't be more perfect. Everything he wanted, he would get with his money and influence. What anyone didn't know was his real motivation to keep on living -- something that was silly for others, but a salvation for him. For office employee FLORENCE VILLENA, there was no longer any meaning to his existence. Nothing could fill the void he had been experiencing inside him anymore, and he was convinced the world was better off without him in it. At twenty-eight years old, LAURENCE VILLEGAS had a lot of reasons to wish to just sleep forever. Since losing his home and family, the universe had rarely been kind to him. And yet, he chose to survive, time and again, if only for the hope of seeing his life get a little better. On Friday the thirteenth of January 2023, fates began to entangle as Laurence died, Florence killed himself, and Isaac lost his reason to live. Nine months after the incidents, a new dawn fell upon those three lives when a dead man's soul reawakened in someone else's body. Set in a fictional Asian City called Perlientas. Mature topics: deaths, including self-killing (actual scene not depicted), mental health and other social issues, character thoughts that some may find disturbing or triggering. Despite those themes, the overall story's pretty tamed. Featured on: @Romance [Romantic Suspense] | September 2024 𝑷𝒂𝒅𝒂𝒖𝒌 𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒊 𝑨𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅𝒔 𝑭𝒊𝒓𝒔𝒕 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒆 - 𝑩𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝑷𝒐𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒂𝒍 𝑪𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒈𝒐𝒓𝒚
