Beatrice's PoV That's why I don't see him wearing a wristwatch because he has a pocket watch. I was surprised when he gave me the pocket watch. "What am I supposed to do with this?" I inquired George. "You can borrow my pocket watch first. Maybe you remember something," George said to me, and I smiled and stood up. "I'll appreciate it," I said, and George smiled back. "I'll be at the library first; if you need to talk, come to the library," George said, and I nodded. George stood up and quickly went to the top, leaving me alone in the living room. I looked at the pocket watch after I looked at it and thought it was beautiful. I'll look at it first and tell George right away when I remember something. But then I don't remember anything. I'm sad, and why am I feeling this way now? Why am I in pain? Don't you think Caroline is in pain right now because I can't remember anything? I went to my room and placed the pocket watch in the drawer, but why am I so worried? I retook the pocket watch and lay down on the bed, not wanting to let it go because I felt like it would vanish if I let it go. I felt sleepy and closed my eyes, still clutching the pocket watch. I was taken aback because I was in a place with waterfalls, and a woman was standing near the falls. My eyes widened when she looked at me; it was Caroline, and she smiled. She approached me, took my hand in her, and examined the pocket watch I was holding. Dreaming "I can't believe he still has it," Caroline exclaimed, and it was only then that I realized I was dreaming. "How is he doing?" Caroline inquired, and I couldn't believe she was speaking to me. "George is fine, but is it true that you and I are the same people?" I asked Caroline, and she didn't say anything. "Tell me! Because George is already in pain because I have no recollection of memories!" I told Caroline, and I saw her cry. "I don't know..." Caroline said softly, her voice trembling with fear. What was she afraid of? "If I'm not the one that George is looking for and you're not in my body, I have to leave his mansion, and he'll forget about me," I surprised Caroline. "Don't leave my husband," Caroline said, and I was taken aback when she knelt. "I'm telling you the truth, I don't know if I'm in your body, but I know that I beg the god of heaven to let me live again," Caroline explained. "I believe what you said, but I don't remember much," I told Caroline as she stood up and the pocket watch moved work. "What did that the pocket watch work again?" I asked myself, looking at the working pocket watch, and when I looked at Caroline, she smiled at me. "I just want to re-run it because George is still hiding it even though it's broken," Caroline said as she backed away. "I need to leave; I know one day you'll realize you and I are one," Caroline said, and then she was gone, and I awoke. End of Dreaming When I looked around, I was in my room and touched my cheek; I cried, it meant Caroline's soul was in my body, but I wasn't sure. I can't tell George that Caroline's soul resides within me. George believes that there are two souls in my body now. Still, George would think that Caroline is attempting to control my body. I closed the drawer and exited the room, leaving the pocket watch behind. I went downstairs and noticed it was late at night; perhaps I'll cook for my food. When I opened the fridge and saw the meat and started to crush it, I grabbed it. I took a bowl and divided the carrots, onion, and garlic. George hasn't left the library yet; perhaps he read a book that piqued his interest. But would I tell him what Caroline told me? Maybe he thought I saw Caroline and talked to her when I said that. I'm hoping George can't read what I'm thinking right now because I'm afraid he finds out my dream earlier was about Caroline. He'll have many questions for me. I put the pan in and turned on the stove after making the meatballs I would cook. "It looks like the food is delicious," George said, which surprised me; I looked at him, hoping he didn't read what I was thinking. "What are you going to make?" George inquired. "I'll cook meatballs. It's delicious because my mom used to cook it for us," I said, and George looked at me as I tossed the meatballs in a pan with oil. George didn't ask me anything while cooking, so I lost my nerves because he couldn't read what I was thinking. Still, it was also impossible for him not to read what I was thinking. "Can you read what I'm thinking right now?" I inquired to George. "I've read everything, but I don't want you to be nervous, and I told you I can wait," George said, still staring at what I was preparing. "Caroline told me not to leave you maybe because she's in my body," I explained, and George remained silent. When I finished cooking the meatballs, I placed them on a plate, went to the table, and George quickly sat in the chair. He still doesn't say anything and stares at me as I eat. "Would you like meatballs?" I asked George as I shifted my plate. "I'm good you can eat that by yourself. I was thinking here," George said to me, staring at me. What on earth was he thinking? I'd finished my meal, and George was still thinking, so I stood up and picked up the plate and glass I'd used. I washed it, but when I was done, I looked at George, who had suddenly become sad. If Caroline's soul was in my body and I didn't remember anything, I would do everything in my best not to make George sad. I approached him and hugged him from behind; I'm sure he was taken aback by what I did. "I read your mind. You didn't want me to be sad, so what do you mean?" I hugged him tightly after he asked. "If Caroline's soul is in my body, it means she and I are one; I just don't remember anything," I told him, and he took my hand and let go of my hug. "I'm not sad; I'm just curious as to why Caroline is in your dream rather than me. Maybe you don't remember because you're dreaming about all the things you've forgotten," George told me, and I was surprised because I had no idea that it could happen that. "How do you know that your memories of the past are made up when you have reincarnation?" I inquired of George. "I've been reading about what it means to be a human being. Reincarnation is possible even if you are a vampire." I sat down next to him after George told me. "When you have reincarnation and memories, your dreams are purely about your past life," George explained, so when I dreamed of the man, I told George that he was the man wearing the old-fashioned clothes. "I hope I remember something because my dream about you is still hazy," I told George. "It may be a long time before you remember me, but don't worry, I'm not in a hurry," George said, resting his head on my shoulder. My heart was racing so fast that I knew he could hear it. But George didn't mention my heartbeat. We remained in this position, he holding my hand when someone flashed in front of my eyes in the same situation but a different location and our clothes were different. "Something flashed in my vision, the place was different, and we were dressed differently," I explained to George. "That was your previous life, I'm with you, and we love each other," George said as he lifted his head from my shoulder. "Are you ready to sleep now?" George inquired, and it was too early for me to sleep. "It's too early to sleep, and I just woke up before I ate," I explained, and he laughed. "Would you like to roam?" I was surprised when George asked. "It's already night. Where are you going to take me?" I inquired of George. "Come on," George stood up, and I followed him out of his mansion. I laughed as George picked me up and ran fast; I could now feel the wind hitting our bodies. I had no idea where we were going, but I knew it was beautiful because I knew he just wanted us to leave and go there. When we arrived, I was surprised to find ourselves in the middle of a sea, and I looked at the moon; the view here is breathtaking, and I'm glad I brought my phone. I took out my phone and took a picture of this view; George was sitting on the sand, so I joined him. "Are you and Caroline are coming here sometimes?" I inquired of George. "Yeah, sometimes when we don't know what to do in our house," George said, and I couldn't recall anything else as I looked around. I felt George hold my hand as I looked at the moon; I stopped looking at him, and my heart began to beat quickly again. Don't tell me I'll fall in love with him. My cheeks are becoming warm. "I read your mind it's okay to fall in love because when I fall in love with you, it means you're Caroline," George said to me, and I looked at him, and he smiled. "Is that how I'm supposed to remember everything?" When I asked George, he touched my cheek. When George kissed me and put his hand on my waist, I was surprised, and when he finished kissing me, I was on top of him, and he was surprised. "Why do you appear to be plotting something against me? Did you know that Caroline does the same thing to me every time I kiss her? "My cheeks became hotter as George spoke to me. I stepped out of him, stepped back a little, and hugged my leg; I couldn't believe it. I was Caroline in a previous life; I was so wild before that I didn't think I'd be able to do that again. "Don't worry, no one has stood up yet," George said. I was surprised, and when I looked at him, he laughed. "You are impolite!" I told George, then stood up and walked away. "Wait! Let's go back together at my house!" I heard George say it, but I ignored him. **
