"Sarah, can't be dead. Mom, tell me this isn't true." Jordan broke down in tears, but there was nothing any of them could do to bring back the girl. Their happiness was that he had survived the accident even after being declared brain dead by the doctor. His survival was a huge miracle.
Soon, Jordan made peace with the fact that Sarah was gone. Months went by, and he finally began to move on with his life. He got into college, and made some new friends. They were so good to him, and in no time, he hit things off with his closest female friend.
"I heard you lost your last girlfriend in an accident." Amy said to Jordan, during one of their many conversations.
"Yes. Sarah; she shouldn't have died. I wanted to protect her, but I failed." Jordan replied. The conversation made him feel sour. He hated to be reminded of Sarah, and his inability to save her from the car accident.
"I'm sorry about that. And you have to stop blaming yourself; it wasn't your fault that she couldn't make it."
"You have no idea how it feels to lose someone you swore to protect. I couldn't even attend her funeral because I was in a coma." Jordan started to break down.
Suddenly, a waitress approached them, and handed a white handkerchief to him. He accepted it, and wiped his face. Something about the waitress seemed familiar to him. He looked up to see her face, but she had already turned away from him. Amy noticed, and asked if he knew the waitress, but he wasn't sure of the response to give. After their lunch, they stood to leave the restaurant, when Jordan saw the waitress again. But this time, he recognized her, and his eyes bulged from shock.
"Sarah!" He screamed the lady's name. The waitress turned to face him, and he ran towards her. She flashed him a sad smile.
"What are you doing here? How are you here?" Jordan asked her, grabbing her arms to be sure that she was real.
Before she could respond, Jordan heard voices of people calling his name. The face of Sarah suddenly turned blurry, and the voices became clearer like the people calling his name were with him. His eyes fluttered open, and he immediately looked around his environment, only to see his parents red-eyed from a lot of crying.
"What's going on? Why am I at the hospital?" He asked, confused.
Someone shouted for the doctor to come, and Jordan looked up to see who it was. It felt like he had seen a ghost, because he immediately jumped from the bed.
"Sarah, what are you doing here?" He asked her.
"How do you mean? I've been with you since the accident."
"But you died. How's this possible?" Jordan was confused. He couldn't believe his eyes.
"Honey, you've been in coma for two days, and Sarah has been here with you. She survived the accident." His mother explained to him.

Though Jordan was happy that Sarah was alive, he was still concerned about his visions, and he wondered if there was another world where Sarah had died from the accident. He was certain that he must've traveled to another dimension, but he kept his thoughts to himself, and happily spent time with Sarah.
