Chapter 49: Why Is It Different

“Do you realize how nuts this sounds?”

Grace’s eyes widened. She pulled her hair away from her face. “Zach, I thought you believed me.”

Zach looked at the table his hands raking through his hair. “I want to, Grace, but I can’t.”

She reached out to him, but stopped before she actually made contact. “What can I do to prove to you?”

“I’m not sure you can.”

Her arms crossed. “So you’ve been humoring me all along?”

He frowned at the floor, but didn’t speak. Her heart pumped, but was heavier in her chest.

“Anyway, I don’t know who else can rewind. Whoever it is must be screwing things up. I need to rewind. I need to see Dolores.”

“You can walk out of here.”

“Yes, but I cannot see Dolores. aShe’s part of a murder investigation. They won’t let just anyone view the body.”

“You work at the hospital, can’t you get in?”

“I can get to the morgue, but not to Dolores.”

His gaze met hers. “I can’t help you.”
