Ask if that is what was happening at the party

    by: Immaturity Author IconMail Icon
"Wait..." you say, finally understanding. "So at your birthday party, when you were acting weird, that was actually you now?"

"A few seconds from now." she says. "I'm just about to do it."

She presses a few keys on the computer's keyboard and a picture appears on screen. It's the photo of you and her at her birthday party last week.

"You need a photo." she explains. "It works like a bookmark in your life."

"Um." you say, barely keeping up. "Okay."

"You also need an Anchor." she explains. "Something to bring you back to the present."

"What's that?" you ask.

"It can be any object." she says. "You have to be touching it when you make the jump. Then, when you touch it again in the past you jump back to the moment you left."

"The earrings?" you say, noticing that she's wearing them right now. "Yes." she says. "Good idea, they would have been at the party."

You consider trying to explain that it wasn't your idea and that you already saw her do it but it's all too complicated.

"Okay." she says, sitting in the chair. "Here I go."

She hits the "enter" key and nothing happens.

"Wow." she says. "It really worked."

"What worked?" you ask. "You didn't go anywhere."

"Yes I did." she says. "I went back to the party. Remember?"

You have the following choices:

1. Ask if this was all a joke

2. Ask to try it yourself
