Back to December

001: I'm much too Young to fall
I slowly open my eyes to see I’m in somewhere I didn’t know. Here is just a blank white space, never ending area. I look around, still wonder where am I?

“Finally you awake”

A voice of man said, I look around again but I can’t see anyone. Suddenly I feel I lose my gravity and something attract me. I scream, close my eyes tightly until I feel my back hit against something like a sofa. Oh, yeah, this is sofa.
I open my eyes to see a man in front of me. The table separate us. He looking so good, blond hair, blue eyes and he wearing white suit. He has a paper in his hand, read it before looks up at me.

“Veronica Dian Baker?”
“Y… yes”

He scared me a little bit. I smile weakly, not want to show him my panic.

“Don’t worried, it just an interview”
“Interview?”
“You are… well, human say V.I.P, right?”
“W… What does that mean?”
“First question, remember anything?”

I look at him with confuse. What does he want me to answer? What does that mean?

“Okay, can’t remember anything”

He checked on a paper.

“Second, do you want to change your life?”

I’m in a quiet for a while. Confusing in what he say and what happen to me.

“Now you are in ‘Afterlife Company’”
“W… what?”
“Afterlife Company”
“Am I dead?!”

I shout, fear fill my heart and my tear is about to fall down.

“Calm down, it’s not your time yet. Your body need to get some rest”
“So what?! I’m here that’s mean I’m dead!!”

I shout at him but I can’t move my body. He sigh, say to me calmly.

“Yes. But you have a chance to back and relief again. Why you don’t understand that means you’re have to wait until your body is ready”
“And when?”
“I don’t know”
“Good… I’m stuck in here and don’t know when I will back”

I hiss, he smirk and walk toward me.

“You miss your dad, aren’t you”

I blush, feeling sad, happy and angry.

“You come here because you and your dad brawled again, you ran out of the house and then…”

The memories flood my head, he is right. I feel I’m about to cry again.

“Oh, I forget to ask you something”
“…What was that?”
“Do you want to change something?”

I look up at him, wait for him to say something.

“You pray to god you want to change your life, every night. Now is your chance”
“I…”
“Do you wanna change your dad?”
“You, I do”
“Then I will grant you a chance”

He smile, then the wooden door appear in front of me. He open it for me, say.

“You will back in the past, 1 year and 3 mounts before you born”
“September, 1998?”
“Yes, sweetheart”

I come closer to the door, still in the position.

“The way to back, do the same thing when you get here”

I nodded. My heart racing and it just like it will explore my chest.

“Oh, plus…”
“What?!”
“You has to learn one lesson. The best revenge is bettering yourself”

That is my dad’s quotes. What does he means? But when I notice, it’s too late to ask him.
