Week 7: How to Create the Description? / Afterlife

Gregory is a successful engineer; a brilliant inventor, and a technician capable of charming any piece of hardware. He is appraised by his superiors and respected by colleagues... however, there's a little problem: Gregory hates or despises most people. And barely cares to hide that.

When Helen enters his life, Gregory changes for better. Well, at least for Helen, who loves him sincerely, regardless of anything. While they are on vacation, celebrating their marriage, Gregory barely survives an accident at a water attraction - he nearly drowns. No one notices that, Helen included. Gregory manages to forget the accident, yet he becomes even more bitter towards all the people.

After they return home, Gregory all of a sudden starts to experience that terrible accident again and again; sometimes he understands no one sees him - and considers him dead; sometimes he manages to ward off the dreadful visions.

As time goes by, the déjà vu moments become fiercer, and the periods of Gregory becoming dead to every living soul become more frequent. And Gregory understands he must solve this mystery quickly, before he becomes dead permanently - to everyone but himself. And the only person who can help him is the one he treats harshly - out of fear and despair.
