The world apart
Summer Raye Levigne, a 26-year-old unemployed individual, is left homeless and struggling to pay her bills. She pleads with her landlady for an extra month to pay off her debts but is denied. She struggles to find a job and finds herself in a car, driven through the dark and slippery road to the city. As she drives, she witnesses a human-like object moving in the middle of the road. Her car tripped and rolled, causing her to fall to the ground. A woman offers to stay with her, but she panics and calls 911. She wakes up in an unfamiliar room with a tube pinned to her wrist and feels pain. The woman tells her that Summer is at the hospital and that she found her in the woods with her car. She explains that there is no one there, but Summer is confused by the situation. She asks why there is no snow anymore, as it is Christmas. The woman reveals that she and Summer had decided to buy a house and live together three years ago in the Philippines, and the Philippines is a tropical country and it doesn't snow.
Gabrielle is a 25-year-old woman who migrated with her younger Spanish stepsister to the small city of Tacloban in the Philippines with their grandparents.
After her mother and her stepfather were killed at their home in Spain when she was still in high school, she and her stepsister were the only survivors.
She came home from school as a graduating high school student. She often got home late, never thinking she'd come home to such a devastating tragedy. The loss of her parents left Gabrielle and her stepsister feeling lost and alone, prompting their grandparents to make the difficult decision to move to Tacloban for a fresh start. Despite the challenges they faced, Gabrielle remained determined to pursue her dreams and create a better future for herself and her stepsister.
But a few years later, she and her stepsister had to live again on their own when their grandparents passed. But at the time, she already had a stable job and was able to provide for her little sister, who is now in high school. Gabrielle's resilience and determination continued to shine as she took on the responsibility of being the sole provider for her stepsister. With her stable job, she ensured that her stepsister had access to quality education and a nurturing environment, allowing her to thrive academically and personally. Despite the hardships they faced, Gabrielle's unwavering love and dedication towards her stepsister became the foundation for their new chapter in life.
But one extra ordinary night while driving home, Gabrielle experienced an extra ordinary phenomenon as the road suddenly became covered in snow and a fast-moving car suddenly appeared out of nowhere. The car was heading straight towards Gabrielle's, causing her heart to race with fear. She was immobilized and just accepted her fate of being hit by the car, but the car's escape caused it to stumble and fly over her head. She saw how the driver got thrown out of the car as it kept rolling on the road. Gabrielle's heart pounded in her chest as she watched the car crash unfold before her eyes. With adrenaline coursing through her veins, she quickly dialed emergency services and rushed to check on the driver, hoping they were okay.
But suddenly a force pulled the driver onto the void and disappeared, leaving Gabrielle shocked and dumbfounded on the middle of the road.
