She Had Seven Days with Him, and I Had Seven Days Left Chapter 10

When I opened my eyes again, I was back in my college dorm room in my home world.

What was going on?

Hadn’t I been hit by a car?

As I looked around at the familiar room, I felt a rush of excitement I hadn’t felt in years

“Evan, class is about to start. Hurry up and wash up.”

“That car grazed you yesterday, and you were so shaken you passed out as soon as you got back.”

“You okay?”

I checked myself over. There wasn’t a scratch on me, and my heart was pounding hard and steady.

Looking back on those ten years with Vivian, it all felt like a dream.

And now I’d woken up.

I swung out of bed and pulled my roommate into a tight hug.

He looked completely bewildered. Just then, the system spoke.

“Congratulations on returning to your home world, host. Would you like to erase your memories of your home world?”

I didn’t hesitate. “Erase them.”

I was done letting the past weigh me down. From now on, I just wanted to make the most of every

day I had ahead of me.

With a ding, I snapped back to the present. I suddenly remembered I was about to be late and ran straight to class.

Ten years later.

My wife, my child, and I were on our way home from the movies when a woman I didn’t recognize

stepped right into my path,

Her eyes filled with tears as she looked at me with a deep, tender longing.

“Daniel, I finally found you. Daniel…”

Confused, I gently pushed her aside.

“Sorry, I don’t know you.”

I turned, took my wife and child by the hand, and walked past her.
