Frank wakes up everyday at 4:30. At 5:00 he turns on the morning news. "A plane has went down in the Alaskan triangle, there were 12 onboard including the pilot, all are dead". Frank sighs then gets dressed to head to the gas station he goes every morning for an egg and cheese biscuit. After finishing his breakfast, Frank heads outside to head back home. While walking to his truck he sees a woman crossing the road, she wasn't paying attention and was looking at her phone when a car hits her throwing her through the air and she lands on the sidewalk. Frank runs over to her and checks for a pulse, he cannot find one. He calls 911 and reports the accident. The paramedics pronounce her dead at the scene. Frank heads home with his mind in pieces. He has quite a bit of whiskey to drink then passes out on the couch. Frank awakens at 4:30 just like every other day. At 5:00 he turns on the morning news expecting to hear about yesterday's accident. "A plane has went down in the Alaskan triangle, there were 12 onboard including the pilot, all are dead". Frank turns the TV off, his head is spinning. "How can this be?". Thinking it's just a rerun of yesterday's news he sighs then gets dressed and heads to the gas station for his morning biscuit. Frank thinks he is starting to loose his mind. Everyone in the store was here yesterday and are wearing the same clothes. Frank finishes his biscuit then heads outside to leave. He looks and sees the same woman he saw die yesterday start to walk across the street staring down at her phone. Frank's heart starts racing as his adrenaline peaks, he runs towards the street and starts screaming at the woman "stop, there's a car coming!!". The woman stops in her tracks, looks up and sees the car, she quickly steps back on the sidewalk as the car barely misses her. Frank runs over to her, she is crying and trying to say thank you but she is so rattled she can't get the words out. Frank, now feeling confused looks up at the sky and sees an angel smiling back at him.
