Rebirth Into My Second Chance

"Ouch..."

It felt like drowning, that kind of torment, gasping for air as if my lungs were on fire.

Then, suddenly, I snapped back to reality with a deep, desperate breath, as if waking from a dream.

Where am I?

My body ached all over, as if I had been torn apart. Instinctively, I looked around, but it was pitch dark, not a thing in sight. I pinched my arm, feeling the flesh, then slapped my thigh, hearing a sharp sound. Wasn't I dead? Why could I still feel pain?

Groping around, I felt the softness of a bed and pillows...

But, the bed in my room is cotton, not this silky texture?

I tried to turn on the bedside lamp, and with a click, the room was illuminated, revealing a hotel room, empty and silent.

But the scattered clothes and tissues around told the tale of a fiery encounter.

This is the hotel Claude's friend recommended, room 6088!

I immediately jumped out of bed to check the room number, and yes, it was 6088.

But how did I end up here?

I was sure I had died, and I saw Richard being murdered because of me.
