Dami opened one of her eyes and looked around. She just had a scary dream of her body changing.
Chelsea, someone screamed loudly.
Chelsea again? Wasn’t it a dream??
She opened her other eye and sat up immediately.
She was still in the room she woke up in, the hospital VIP room.
Wait so that wasn’t a dream!!!
She looked around and saw the woman she saw earlier staring at her
No no no!
She immediately jumped up and rushed to the mirror in the room
It was the same image.
What’s going on? What happened to my body?, she yelled touching her face
What happened to your body, the woman asked
And why does this face looks familiar, she felt like she had seen it somewhere.
Wait!!!!!
Chelsea!!!!
She screamed loudly immediately
Ma’am Chelsea what’s wrong with you, the woman asked looking worried
What is she doing in Chelsea’s body!! Infact, what is even going on?
She has fallen from the rooftop and somehow she’s alive in Chelsea’s body? How is that even possible?
If she’s here then where is Chelsea? The whole thing was freaking her out. she just wanted to see her family.
Will they even believe her? Anyway she needs to meet them first.
She turned to the woman immediately.
Can I leave, I have a business to take care of, she said
No I can’t let you leave, you are definitely unwell, you have been acting weird since, The woman said.
Then you leave me with no choice, I will escape, Dami said
Miss Chelsea you are really acting different, the woman said.
Just help me, I promise It won’t take time, huh, she begged
The woman sighed
••
Miles please don’t leave me, a young girl cried.
Wait I need to….
Miles please, Miles!!!!!!!!
Jewel!!, Miles screamed and spranged up up. He held his head in pain and was sweating badly.
He grabbed the bottle of drugs that was beside his bed and flung it away
He just slept few minutes ago but the nightmare came back and that damned doctor claimed that it was the final cure
He has insomnia and can’t sleep. Whenever he struggles to, he will have a scary dream
Just then, the door opened and Kimberly came in.
What are you doing here, he asked surprised that she was still around.
Good morning, did you have your nightmare again?, Kimberly asked
Did you really sleep over, he asked in return
I guess you did, you know sometimes I feel like jumping into your dream to strangle that Bîtch, Kimberly spat. Miles stared at her coldly.
Just kidding okay, I ordered breakfast coke let’s eat, she said.
You can eat alone I am not hungry, he said
Don’t tell me you are mad because of what I said, Kimberly pouted
He stood up from the bed and started heading to the washroom
She blocked him immediately
Miles are you ignoring me now, I am sorry, I shouldn’t have said that, Kimberly said
I am not in the mood, please leave I have lots of appointments today, he said
Miles, she called and tried to hug him but he pushed her to the ground immediately
Without even sparing her a glance, he entered the bathroom and slammed the door
She clenched her fist angrily
Jewel, I may have to visit the underworld and kill you, she said bitterly

Chelsea stopped running and held her waist tiredly. She had been running for over thirty minutes without stopping and now she felt really thirsty
There you are, Ryan said panting
She stared at him in surprise
Wait did you follow me? She asked
What do you think, he snapped. She sighed and faced him
You don’t believe me, do you?, she asked
Believe what, that you are not Dami?, He scoffed
I am really not Dami, I think I am in her body, Chelsea said. Ryan chuckled and sat down on the bare floor
I am serious, I am not Dami, Chelsea snapped
If you are not Dami, then who are you, Ryan asked
I am Chelsea, you know Chelsea in Divas right? I am her, Chelsea said. Ryan burst into laughter immediately
I am serious, Chelsea said
Of course you are serious, I am sure of that, Ryan mocked
Please listen to me. I tried committing suicide by jumping from the rooftop, surprisingly I am alive in a different body, Chelsea said
He stood up and faced her
Do you really expect me to believe that, he chuckled
I have three moles on my feet, in my real body, you can check that, Chelsea said
You can know that if you are a true fan or obsessed fan, and how can I check that, Ryan snapped
Why can’t you believe me huh? I am really going crazy here, look I don’t know you at all, why would I try to push my grandma if I am really Dami, can’t you just try to listen to me, She said calmly
He moved closer and stared at her
Are you thirsty, he asked. She sighed and nodded
He bought two bottles of water and they went to sit on a bench in a park
So why did you try to commit suicide, He sked
You believe me? She asked
I want to believe you, so you have to answer all my questions, Ryan said
She nodded immediately
Why did you try to kill yourself, he asked
I had a lot of issues, I didn’t see any reason to live anymore, she replied
Is that why you should kill yourself, even if your life is sad, it gets better, he said
You have no idea what I’ve been through!, have your mum ever h@tëd you to the point that even your death won’t affect her?, Chelsea asked
I don’t have one so I don’t know, Ryan replied
Well it’s better not to have one than to have one like that. To everyone I have a perfect life, but you don’t know what goes on behind the scenes, she said
He sighed
So what are you going to do now, and I still don’t believe that you are my sister, Ryan said
We have to find your sister first, Chelsea said
If you are really in my sister’s body, that means my sister is probably in your body, Ryan said
That’s right, you just have to find me, Chelsea said and stood up
You can’t go to your house, no one will believe you anyway, Ryan said
That’s right, Chelsea mumbled and sat down
Don’t worry, she will come to us, I know my sister, he said. She stared at him.
That means we have to go home immediately, he told her.
••
They both made their way back home and soon they were at the front of the gate.
Chelsea stopped and faced him
Should we wait for her here, she asked
Do you really want to go back badly, he asked in return
Don’t you feel weird that I am in your sister’s body?, Chelsea asked
He was about to reply her when a car stopped in front of them
A girl wearing a mask came out of the car but then she stopped when she saw Chelsea
Dami?, Ryan called staring at her. She removed the mask and went close to Chelsea
What’s going on, why do you look like this, Dami asked still in shock
I am as speechless as you are, why do you also look like that, Chelsea asked in return
Are you really Dami, Ryan asked
Maybe I am dreaming, Yeah it’s a dream, Dami said hitting her head
But why can’t I wake up, I don’t want to dream again, Dami cried
I remembered jumping from a rooftop, I am supposed to be dead, but I am alive and in this body, Chelsea said
Dami gasped
I also fell from a rooftop, she said
Whatttt, Ryan yelled
What were you even doing there, how did you fall, he screamed
It was Monica, she hired some guys and while trying to escape them, an accident happened, I was surprised to still be alive, Dami said
Ryan started walking away angrily and she rushed to hold him back
Where do you think you are going, she snapped
I am going to teach that Bîtch a lesson, he yelled
Ryan, she snarled
You died Dami, you died!!. If you really fell from the rooftop then you died for real, He screamed
I am alive so calm down, don’t act rashly, she said
Rashly!, Are you even normal now, you are in another person’s body!!, you died and your ghost definitely entered another person’s body!, He screamed
She held him tightly and sighed
Fine, can you do that later?, Now I just want to look for a way to get back into my body, I can’t live like this, she said
He scoffed and looked away
Do you think we should trying falling off the rooftop again, Dami asked
Nooo, Ryan screamed
Are you trying to kill yourself for real, he snapped
But there is no other way, Dami said
I agree with him, we might die for real this time, Chelsea said
They all sighed
Maybe we were given second chance, she added
But does that makes sense, who will even believe that trash. Don’t you want to get back into your body?, Dami asked.
I do, I can’t live here too, I am not cut in for a life here, Chelsea replied.
But you can tell your family right?, They might help us faster, Dami said
I have none, Chelsea said. Dami and Ryan looked at her
My dad hasn’t called for years, my mum is the reason I tried to kill myself, she was the last blow, she said.
Whattt
My elder sister passed away years ago, or should I say she disappeared, she continued.
Dami sat down the bare floor and sighed.
Obviously your souls got switched and we have to look for a way to switch them back, Ryan said
Is there any way you know, Chelsea asked
Don’t you guys remember anything before you fell off the rooftop?, He asked
Nothing happened, everything was normal to me till Monica appeared, Dami replied
Me too, Chelsea replied
Then should we visit those diety worshippers, Ryan asked
Will they help?, Chelsea asked
Yeah they believe in spirits and deities, they might at least explain things to us, Ryan replied
Then should find them, we have to do anything to switch back, Dami said. Chelsea didn’t say a word
But still how do we go about it?, I mean I can’t stay here, can I?, Dami asked
We can’t, you just have to stay put for somedays, I will find someone, Ryan replied
Wait? Am I really going back?, I want to stay here, she pouted
I guess you want fans to take over this house, Chelsea said. Dami sighed sadly
I also have rehearsals and concerts, you have to help me out, Chelsea said
Whatttt, I can’t dance at all, Dami shrieked
Then I will teach you, I will call you, Chelsea said
If you cared so much about that, why did you try to kill yourself, Ryan asked
As long as I am alive that’s my priority, I can’t ignore it. If I am dead then I know I am free, Chelsea replied
Try to avoid it for at least a day, I will start looking for people, Ryan said
I am doomed, Dami cried
TBC
