Chapter 2 GEMMA'S POV

"Go back, this place is not for you, you have your entire life ahead of you" Nana said to me.

"But Nana, I do not want to go back, it is too painful there, here seems peaceful" I replied

"I know my dear but you have to go back because your time has not yet come" Nana said to me smiling and pushing me towards the edge of the cliff.

"Jump down and meet the others" Nana said again

"But this is a cliff, if I jump down, I will die" I said to my Nana

"Just trust me". She said in reply. I nodded and turned back to look at her and she nodded telling me to jump still with that beautiful smile on her face so I decided to obey her and jumped down the cliff and when I opened my eyes to see the where the end of the cliff, I was at a strange place and something was beeping above my head, I then realized I was lying down. I looked at my hand and saw a drip rope inserted in my hand and a plaster placed on it to secure it in my vein, I looked around and noticed it was a hospital.

How did people see me quickly when I was down the cliff that I was immediately rushed to the hospital?

I then remembered my Nana's smiling face and realized it was a dream. Flashbacks of what happened on the road started coming to my memory, my heart was beating erratically and my head began to analyse and calculate how I got to the hospital, I could not remember anything about how I got here. I hope they have not found me or someone did not contact them while I was unconscious, I thought quickly as I started looking for the best place to get out of here before they find me. I removed the drip attached to my hand and immediately climbed down the bed ready to jump through the window. I stepped on the cold tiles and my head was spinning but with the determination coursing through my veins, I managed to get a hold of myself and moved as gently and noiselessly as I could towards the window, while looking back frequently to see if anyone was coming to the room. As I climbed the window sill to look down, it was a bit high but nothing I could not manage in my present situation. I turned around to put one of my legs on the pipe closest to me then I heard someone say angrily

"What are you doing?"

"You will fall down, are you planning to die?"
