He's right here right in front of my face. Should I just go up to him? Of course not he wouldn't just be a doctor for no reason there something bigger something I'm missing. I will not let this opportunity go to waste. I follow them to 1242 and took a seat right out of the room and Little Me sat right beside me. It's too risky to just walk in and too suspicious to look through the window for no reason. Luckily I could hear everything that happened in there Adam always was a loud mouth.

"First check their heartbeat it's is always the most important part in a patient's health." These creatures have hearts and by the sound of things it's just like a human heart . I think I figured out why Adam became a doctor if I'm correct he's trying to figure out the anatomy of these creatures . Perfect I already learned a decent amount of this world around and with Adam new learning about there anatomy fixing time should be doable.

I just have to make contact with him but how do I do that? Should I just wait a bit longer if I wait too long people might start to catch on. I have to do something and get as much info as possible. I checked the room next to me. It's 1243. The door closed and doesn't appear to be staff only perfect now I can set the plan in motion. I get up and walk into the room and ask "Excuse me is this room 1243?" Perfect now I have to analyze everything in the few moments I have. I look at Adam he definitely shocked to see me and if all goes well he might just come to me, then I look at the man Adam is with he has a long beard very pale and wears glasses I look for anything that could help me then I see a window right behind them it looks to be at ground level if push comes to shove I can always just look in again. Before I can check out anything else in the room he corrects me and I take my leave.

I walk past room 1243 and Little Me follows. Now I know without a doubt that was Adam. Problem is that I don't know how to reach him? My best bet is getting the man Adam was with out of the room but I don't know how I'm supposed to do that either. An emergency maybe? Not a chance there to many people here it can backfire greatly. Maybe I'll use Little Me for something. I know that I said I'd trust her with anything but Adam is just way too important to leave in her hands. I can just say I need Adam for something. Never mind that has too many plot holes. What am I going to say "Hey I need your assistant just cause." I don't think there's a way to contact him right this second but there's no need to rush things I could just wait for him to get off of work all I need is his scheduled find out what time he leaves and come back to the hospital.

I looked for a clock all around the hospital and I couldn't find a single one. Figures were in a place where time doesn't even exist anymore why would there be clocks. Now I need to figure out when Adams gets off and how I should measure it. Should I ask Little Me about it? I can't exactly trust her but what else am I going to do just wait outside till I see Adam leave? I guess I just have to ask her then "Hey Racheal how does time work here exactly I don't really see any clocks around here?" She look puzzled from a second and her face lit up and just said " Oh yeah that we have a thing called internal clocks we could just tell the time whenever." You can't be serious now I need Little Me for the time too this choke grip just keeps getting tighter and tighter. It's fine, I just need to wait a little longer. I ask "So what time is it?" She pulls her ear and says "6:47." Good enough now all I need to do is find the schedule and will be on our way.

Hold on if they have internal clocks there might not even be a schedule I might be walking straight into a dead end. Now what do I just come back at 7? That has a decent chance of working but it's very risky if I lose Adam I might be stuck in this choke grip forever. I don't want to be walking around the hospital for who knows how long looking for something that doesn't exist.

I'm getting desperate, there is only one option I could think of. I go outside and find a bench outside in front of it is a bus sign. I sit down and Little Me sits right next to me now all I do is wait for Adam to come out of the hospital. As much as I would prefer anything else like finding info on this world there is no info I can think of that would be more important then Adam so for now we will wait.

After waiting for like 2 hours Adam finally walks out of the hospital and sits right next to us at the bus stop. "Hey Adam, it's been so long." Adam then pulls out a knife and points it straight at my throat. I saw Little Me in the corner of my eye. She was panicking right now but to be honest I thought something like this would happen. He had no reason to think I would even exist, since he didn't have a Little Me to tell him anything I just told him to "Ask away."

"Where were you all this time?"

"I was stuck in a white void until a smaller version of myself helped me out."

"smaller version?" I pointed at Little Me who sat beside me still panicking.

"Alright then how do I know you're the real Racheal?" I knew this was a trick question where in a different dimension there no *something about me only the real Racheal would know* He knew as well as I did we had to have blind faith in each other. I told him "There is no way for me to confirm I'm the real Racheal, you just have to trust me."

He lowered the knife. I could tell he still distrust me but I know all we need is time to come to complete trust. I still need to be careful around him but he was well worth the effort I put in. He grabs his head in disbelief not knowing how to process the whole thing. I don't blame him. I would be shocked but then I saw something I never seen him do before. He tried holding it back, he even tried covering it with his hand but he started crying. I don't really know what to do in this situation. I just ask "Hey are you ok."

He put his head down and the tears stop flowing even though I could tell he still holding back he just said "I'm fine." and gets up and start walking I start following I'm just going to assume where going to his place and leave him alone with his thoughts. Now for the big question, what am I going to do with Little Me? I don't really want to get rid of her just yet if me and Adam both attack her we can probably capture her or something.

Unfortunately to do that I have to get Adam on my side. I don't really know how to speed up the process. Anything that might usually comes off as friendly might look like an act. We stop at an alley and he puts the knife back at my neck and he yells at me "Now you're going to tell me where you actually have been the past 2 years."
