“She was having a seizure; call the ambulance, Jack!” Angela turned Nicole on her side,
Angela had tried to keep her calm, and Ambulance arrived after her seizure, which lasted for fifteen seconds.
"The paramedic insisted on taking her to the hospital for a checkup. Angela agreed. Nicole looked around; the room was white, and the light was bright.
The doctor came out with a file, lowering his glasses. He is in his sixties, well-built for his age, tanned, and has short hair. He looked up at Angela, "I am doctor Marvins." He reached out his hand and shook Angela’s and Jack’s hands. “It's Good that you have brought her in for a checkup. She has absence seizures, sudden stopping movements, and the appearance of daydreaming. Have you noticed any of these symptoms?"
“Yeah, we have, but we never realized it's this serious.”
“Can you tell me any occurrence in her life that might have caused this?”
“Yes, doctor,” Angela explained what happened

She ran up to Jack, "what has happened to him?""We don't have much clarity on the situation, but we do know it was a hit and run.""Please tell me he will be fine?"

"Jack? Is there something you haven't told me?" "What do you mean, Claire?" "Jack, those guys are afraid of you and greeted you with honor and respect?" "Yes, if I knew who they were, I would have greeted them as well." Claire looked Jack in the eyes, "You really don't know who they are you?" "No, now are you going to tell me who they are?" "They are friends of Marcus and myself. We asked for their help tracking the people who did this to Marcus." Claire stretched out her arm and took Jack's hand, "let's take a walk, Jack." Jack followed her to the balcony of the hospital; stars filled the sky like pale corn into freshly turned ground. It was the promise of life in the darkness, a sense of warmth springing from the cold. It was a vastness to bring humbleness and an unlimited space to bring gratitude for the coziness of two people under the night sky. No matter how many years passed, Jack and Claire knew eachother for as long as

"I want you to find out everything about him. I know he is hiding something.""Yes, Sir.""The call records I asked you to retrieve. Do you have it?""No, Sir, they could not extract that recording. It was erased from the service provider's server, and they said something like this has never happened before."Agent Ross stood by his desk, sipping his coffee with the cup his mother had given him when she was alive; it was one of the few things he had from her after the house had burned down. Losing his family and his mother made him fall into a dark place. He had a ten-year-old son who he had lost in that fire. The fire was too hot for him to enter the house, and those screams were unforgettable. As he tries to break through the hot blazing fire, the fireman pulls him out. By the time they got to his family, they were all dead. He had started drinking alot and became homeless for a year. Agent Ross had a strange appearance, almost as if it was contrived. H

"This has been quite a morning. I had a struggle getting out of bed." Agent Ross sat at his desk drinking his coffee."Have you found anything, Sir?""This kid is like a ghost. There is no record of him except for him being raised by his dad, who was a politician, and a mother who was a stay-at-home mom?""You said was Sir?""Yes, she sadly passed away. His dad was recently killed. All files of the dad's killing are gone.""Agent Ross, I want to see you in my office."Josh's eyes grew wide, "the chief looks pretty pissed. Is there something you did?""No, not that I know of.

That's not good. I will catch up with you later.""Yes, Sir, I am on my way.""Chief?

"Is he okay, doctor?""Yes, he woke up. He seems fine, we ran a few tests, and everything looks okay. He has, however, asked for Claire.""Claire never came with us, Dr.""I suggest you get her here while his memory is fresh.""Did he mention anything besides Claire?""No, nothing that I can think of. Sorry."Claire walked up the staircase to Jack's room; he was still asleep when she pushed open the door and peeked in; he was lying half-naked on his bed.He was lying with his stomach far on the bed. She walked into the room and noticed something she had seen before. It was the same tattoo as she had. She looked closer as she leaned over; he somehow appeared different, with finer detail, strips on the crown indicating your ranking and killings. She had nothing; he had stripes. Those eight stripes could mean ranking or family; she was a soldier and sat with no stripes. Down on his leg on his inner thigh, he had a date. In the center of

"Finally, some peace and quiet." Angela sits on the sofa, stretching out and facing the cabinet. The house is somewhat too quiet; she is used to a house full of people. Her parents always had people over, and on the corner of the window stood a flower pot. The white leather sofa with its backside facing the window is where her dad always sat reading the newspaper on Sunday. He had switched off his phone on a Sunday and sat all day on that couch. Her mother would only go out when he was not home; when he was there, she was there. Angela stared at the plant; it had grown quite abit for a seven-month-old plant, but her mom told everyone never to water that specific plant. It's one of those plants that never need watering. It was a snake plant also known as Sansevieria. The yellow edges blended with the green. Her mother was alot around that specific plant; she had not known why her mom was so attached. There came days when their dad argued she cared more for her plant than anyone else

Claire had pulled up by the house, "what is she doing here?" Nicole said. "I will be staying by her for a while." "But here is a place for you. I mean, there is plenty of room, right Angela." "Yes, there will always be room for you." Claire walked in carrying an expensive handbag and shoes, "I see you spoiled yourself?" "Yes, Angela, if the men won't, we will do it ourselves." "Well, I love the color. Why don't you and Marcus stay here?" Claire looked over at Marcus. While Jack was not taking notes, he made notes in a diary. "Jack, what could be so important?" Jack looked up at Claire and smiled, “I am just abit busy with some of Angela's work.” "You doing the graphics for her website?" "Yes, I am. You should come to take a look at this."
