I dropped my phone as it was loosened from my grip when the half naked girl turned to look at me.

S-She looks exactly like her and she is wearing my pilot's jacket.

"Mia?...." I really can believe my eyes as she was standing right in front of me.

She can't be her, right? I know that because I was there at her last moment.

She seemed scared and confused, and I have no idea how she got into my house.

I saw her took a step back when I went down to pick up my phone, "Hey, don't be afraid...I won’t hurt you, okay. "I'm trying to make a call....see...*shows her my phone*...." then called for Laura so that she could come here to help me to handle her.

Laura didn't believe everything I said to her through the phone and I asked her to come over to my house as fast as she could so she could take a look at the mysterious girl herself.

I tried to make her leave my walking-closet but it was hopeless. She just stayed there, looking so scared and confused with all of this. She didn't say anything...I mean, I didn't hear any voice coming from her mouth. She just remained silent in my closet with my pilot jacket covered her naked body.

I just stood at the doorstep, waiting for my friends to come over while observing the mysterious girl.

"Who are you, really?" I murmured to myself. "You look so much like her...."

Laura and Shawn were finally here, even they were in shocked when met that girl who has the same face of my late girlfriend, Mia.

"Maybe Mia has....." Shawn spoke out as both of us were observing Laura was handling that girl.

But I cut him in, "No...she doesn't have a twin..."

"Maybe she's her doppelganger....you know, I once heard there were 7 people who have the same face like us in this world." Shawn continued.

"I don't know, dude," I replied him. "She may has her face...but she will never be her."

Laura took her for shower, meanwhile Shawn and I, both of us were cleaning all the messes she made around my house. Surprisingly, most of my food I just bought were all completely gone, except for the raw food such as eggs, vegetables and meats.

I wonder how she could eat all of that by herself.

What a very weird girl.

I just can't believe my eyes when saw her coming out from my room, fully clothes with her hair was styling in ponytail. She looked so much like her...about 100% look alike and even made my heart skipped its beat for once.

Laura was standing right beside of her, guiding her to walk away from the room towards both of us.

"She's all clean up...and sorry about your uniform, Aiden. I think you should take it for the dry cleaning" Laura patted my shoulder a little as she gave me my dirty pilot jacket which that mysterious girl wore earlier.

"Aiden??" The mysterious girl finally spoke out, staring at me in confused with her beautiful chestnut eyes.

All three of us turned to look at her in instant, "Do you know him??" Shawn and Laura asked her simultaneously.

She shook her head, "No...." then curved a beautiful smile on her lips as our eyes met. "Your eyes....they're beautiful..."her words totally made me blushing and I quickly hid my face by turning away before my friends noticed it.

"So...u-mmm what should we call her for a temporary?" Laura suddenly gave me a weird look.

"Don't look at me like that," I quickly moved my eyes from her, but accidentally made an eye contact with the mysterious girl.

"I-uhh....whatever...."then walked away from them to the fridge to grab some drink. But unfortunately, I forgot that the newly bought juices and milk were already gone, which only left with the mineral waters. "I need to go for grocery shopping again..." I murmured to myself.

"So..."Laura started the conversation. "What is your name?"

The chestnut eyes girl turned to look at Laura, "I-I don't know."

"Ookayyy..."I saw Laura took a glance at me, maybe signalled me to ask that girl for the next question. But I just ignored her by pretending to stretch my back. "What about your home? Do you remember anything?"

The girl just looked at my friend in blank, seemed like she didn't know anything about herself either.

"Hmmm....this is hard," Laura murmured while half crossing her arms with her right hand touched her chin, as in thinking position. "We need to talk...come here," Laura grabbed my hand then brought me into my bedroom. "Are you going to call the police?"

I took a peek of that girl outside, "I don't know. She doesn't steal anything anyway."

"Seems like she's having amnesia." She explained.

"Hmmm...should we send her to the social service?" I asked for my best friend's opinion.

"It's weekend, Aiden," Laura quickly answered. "The offices are closed till Monday."

"...*sighs*....you're right. Looks like we have to wait till Monday, huh,"

Laura crossed her arms along with a smirk as she looked at me, "What do you mean 'We'??"

Uh-oh....I know that look. "Oh come on, Laura."

"I'm have to work this weekend, besides Shawn is on duty too, replacing your place remember?" She tried to get away from me even though I already blocked the door.

"Noo....you can't do that!!!" I complained, chasing her around the house. But I stopped later on when she cheated, using Shawn as her barrier. "What am I supposed to do with her???"

Laura grabbed Shawn's hand then walked along with him towards the front door. "Have fun...Aiden with your new friend....just call me whenever you need me, okay. I'll try to come if I wasn't busy...."

They already closed the door before I could stop them. The mysterious girl was completely confused with all of happens and we both just stared at each other for a few seconds.

*clears throat*

"Well...u-umm...are you hungry?" Stupid, Aiden. Didn't you remember she already ate most of the food in your fridge?

But, surprisingly, she nodded as for answering my question.
