Rae’s POV Waking to the morning light filling the room all I could feel was content. Not only do I feel well rested, but I got to see Mary in my dreams. I may not have wanted it to end, but regardless I was happy. Sitting up I wonder how I moved to this side of the bed under the covers. I remember falling asleep sideways on the bed above the covers on the opposite side. I decided to shrug it off and headed into the bathroom. I felt a morning shower was a good idea. Before taking a shower I started smelling the soaps out of habit. Every one of them had a strong sent which made me cringe. Now it seems all soaps from this world makes me worry. Even though the shower was calling my name I decided against it because the soap options just didn’t sit well with me. Walking into the closet I decided to choose a dress that reminded me of peasant wear that I’ve seen in movies. If worn with a few different accessor

Rae’s POV   I was terrified of Nathan’s sudden outburst even though I know it was totally my fault. But, after everyone’s reassuring along with his constant apology that knew no end I eventually gave in and started trying to get to know him.   Breakfast was different then what I was use to. After I was able to finally use chopsticks, somewhat, I was able to eat my fill. Again the food tasted as if it lacked something but it was far better then what Jeong’s father had served.   After breakfast Jean and Gerald began clearing the table. I wanted to help but Jeong tugged the sleeve of my dress and motioned me to sit.   Jeong leans towards me and whispers “Let them do their job.” as he smiled.   I let out a sigh as I nod to him and watch them clear the table.   Jeong states “I’m glad you’re starting to get the hang of using chopsticks.”   “Yea

Rae’s POV   I’ve been so wrapped up with researching possible things to use in soap that I completely disregarded the close proximity of everyone around me. Now when leaving the house to visit this so called natural healer I’m completely aware of how close Jeong is to me. This is the first time he sat next to me in the carriage. Granted this is only the third time being in one with him, but still he’s so close. What do I say to him? Should I say anything?   The trip to town was silent and awkward. Luckily the town wasn’t that far from the house. We could have actually walked just fine, was there really a need to use the carriage? Maybe that’s just something rich people are use to.   The carriage stopped in front of a small court yard as Nathan jumped down and opened the door. Jeong got down first and Nathan reached his hand towards me helping me down. I jump down with a thud and almost lost my balance but Nathan was quic

Jeong’s POV   Dr Willard’s now serious look plastered across his face “And, I would do anything if it meant stopping The Project and reclaiming our world from corruption.”   This man seems to be telling the truth, but is he truly against The Project? He hasn’t shown anything to lead me in disbelief. His knowledge would prove quite valuable if we are to move forward with our plan. Having more information against the elite will undoubtedly be in our favor in the future.   When pondering the man before me Rae and Nathan walk back into the room. I notice a small bandage peaking out from beneath her sleeve. “Rae, are you ok?” while quickly getting up reaching for her hand.   “I’m o k...” she stops and watches me lift her sleeve looking at the bandage around her arm.   “What happened?” trying to calm myself while anger wells up inside of me.   Rae covers her mouth

Rae’s POV   Waking up sore all over. “Ugh” what is wrong with me? Pushing myself up from the bed I notice I am under the covers. Did I do that or did Jeong? Shaking my head I look towards the window and see the night sky. “I wonder what time it is.” Pushing the covers off of myself and flinging my legs over the side of the bed I wince at the soreness of my body. Why am I so sore? It feels like my body got to much rest, but at the same time doesn’t feel like I got any rest.   Glancing at the night stand I see what looks to be a sandwich and a glass of water. Not really feeling like eating right at this moment I force myself up and head to the bathroom. After doing my business, taking a quick shower then getting dressed I’m back in my room. Without thinking I grab the plate of food and drink and head out of the room.   I mindlessly find myself walking down the stairs until a light caught my eye from the side of the house I
