He could barely believe what he was seeing. “This is a paradise on earth,” he let out slowly. The man beside him now had disappeared. The phantom kept driving until it drove itself into a garage. A young man walked out with a smile plastered on his face. He bowed his head immediately. “It's good to have you here, Mr. Richard. We have been expecting you for a while now. Let me fix your car. Can I have the keys?” Richard was fazed for a couple of minutes. He held onto the key and was not sure he heard what the young man said. “Are you AI?” Richard asked immediately, walking closer to him. “AI?” The young man asked, squeezing his eyebrows. “Of course not. I will be your mechanic as I have been to your father.” Richard smiled. “And how many years have you worked for him?” he asked, folding his arms. The man was about to talk when he heard footsteps

She is getting married to Brian and that is my final decision.” Gerald got to his feet aft

It suddenly felt like the whole place was watching them even though no one was.“Richard… what do you mean?” she finally whispered.Richard rested his back on the chair and exhaled deeply. His eyes shifted away, like he was looking at a memory far behind him.“Everything I know about myself… everything I believed… it’s all a lie,” he said quietly.Dianne blinked fast. “You’re scaring me. What do you mean?”Richard rubbed his temples slowly. His head felt heavy. He didn’t even know where to start.“I don’t remember my parents. I don’t remember my childhood.
