Kresha opened her eyes slowly. The first thing she see is the white and familiar ceiling. The whole whole place is so quite. Kresha wake up and sat on the bed. She look around and a sense the familiar ambiance of the place. She look at the lampshade on the right side of her. And then her gaze fell into the bedside table, the paintings on the wall and..... wait! This place look so familiar to me! It's my room at the Tang old redsidence! She look around again but can't find no one.
She thought that she is alone inside the room. But someone suddenly speak beside her!
"Hey my little princess! You're finally awake!"
Kresha almost jump out when she heared that familiar voice. She tilted her head to her left side and was even frightened of what she saw! "Aaahhh!!!" She screamed and quickly jumped out of the bed with her eyes wide open.
"Gra....grandfather ... why are you here?!" Oh god! Am i already dead? Kresha is so scared her face turned pale.
Her grandfather was annoyed by her reaction. He knocked her head and speak, " You kid! Do I look scary?! Why do you have to scream like you have seen a ghost?!"
"Ouch! It hurts!" She complained as she massage the spot of her head that his grandpa knocked. After a while she realise something wasn't right! She grasped and covered her mouth! "You... you can touch me grandpa? It's weird, I thought ghost can't touch the living ones." She mumbled while stroking her pained head.
"You kid! Who is the ghost?!" Her grandpa was mad now. He hardly pinched her ear to the point that it turns red!"You want me to die??!!"
"Awh! Awh! Awh! Grandpa it hurts!" Kresha complained. No! Why does she can feel the pain?
And this scene? It's quite familiar!
"You bastard! How could you want your grandpa be dead I am only sixty nine and you already wanted me to die!?" Her grandpa added.
Kresha was stunned! Sixty nine? Didn't her grand father die at the age of eighty three? Last year? Kresha take a closer look at his grandpa with her knitted brows.
"You mean, you are still sixty nine?!" Kresha asked.
Her grandpa pinched her right ear again. "Ouch!" She cried.
"Of course!" His grandpa answered.
Kresha thought for a moment. She really don't understand what's going on.
"Grandpa how can you be still sixty nine? It's already year 2018!" And you already died last year. Kresha secretly added.
"Hey! Are you still sleeping? It's year 2003 and today is your first day at work! So you better hurry up before you get late and get fired on your first day!" Her grandpa said and then left her room.
Kresha stood rooted on the ground .
"What? Year 2003?" She mumbled wih a puzzled look.
She looked around before she slowly sat down on her bed.
Year 2003? Am I dreaming? She ask her self. She looked at her little hands. She has a fair and delicate skin. She then quickly stand up and walk towards the mirror. She was stunned!
Kresha can't help but grasped! She look at her own reflection. Oh god! I look younger now! Looks like I'm back in my twenties! She slowly lifted her hand and touch her own face, she pinch her little face and feel the pain."Ouch!" Oh god! I wasn't dreaming! Could it be that....she froze . Gosh! Am I being reborn? I thought that being reborn only exist on the novels. It never occured to her mind that she will experience it and travel back to her younger years.
The last thing she remember was. They are fighting inside the car while Lindon is driving! And then they have encountered a car crash! Oh god! Lindon! Where could he be right now?

"Sir?" Assistant Chen shook Lindons' shoulder.
Lindon just moaned but didn't wake up. He is sitting on his chair with his arms on the desk. He rested his head on his arms and his eyes are tightly closed.
"Oh! Did he over work again last night ?" Assistant Chen chuckled.
"Mr. Mo? You have to wake up. It's already eight in the morning."
Lindon slowly opened his eyes. He frowned as he look at his assistant.
"What?!" He was annoyed not because Assistant Chen awakened him, but because of his dreams. He did'nt know if it was just a dream or real. In his dreams he was forced to marry a woman he never love. What made him even more confused was. His dreams seem so real! Lindon shook his head, i will never do that biggest mistake in my life.
Assistant Chen saw Lindon shaking his head. He frowned and asked him.
"Are you not feeling well Mr. Mo? Should I cancel your meeting with the newly hired employees?"
Lindon shook his head again and rejected his idea.
"No, no need to cancel it. I was just a bit dizzy." He stand up from his seat and headed to room on the left side of his office.
"Let me take a shower first. Assemble them in the conference room." He ordered Assistant Chen.
Lindon entered the bathroom. He is still thinkingl about his dream last night. He can remember his dream from the beginning to end, and it made him feel weired. Because usually, everytime he had a dream at night. He can barely recall it the next morning.
What's even more weired is that, he can clearly remember the womans' face. Lindon turned the tap on and wash his face. He then looked at the mirror in front of him.
"Maybe I have just over worked last night." He said as if he is talking to someone in the mirror. He then walked towards the shower and take a bath.
