Chapter 37: Milestone

I absently entered my hotel room and went straight to bed, though I had a bit of trouble falling asleep.

What I hoped was that this really was just a coincidence and not some crazy twist of fate caused by my travel back in time.

The idea that maybe somehow the world was trying to lead me to the same place I came back from was unsettling.

In the morning, I packed my stuff with my family, and we decided to go to the beach one last time before driving off in the late afternoon.

As we headed down the stairs and into the lobby, I ran into the one person I didn't really want to see.

There she was, sitting in the same green dress I first saw her in.

I guessed she was waiting in the lobby especially for me, because when she saw me, she immediately stood up from the couch and walked up to us. 

I noticed her hair was in a ponytail, and she looked very innocent. Again, like a completely different person compared to yesterday.
