Autumn's Wish (2016)
“I open my eyes in a super-clean, white-and-stainless-steel modern-looking kitchen, and right in front of me are two flat computer screens, built into the wall. The one on top shows a calendar. It’s early December, same as when I left, but it’s fifteen years in the future.
“No wonder the kitchen looks modern,” I say. “Or since I’m in the future, is it actually retro?” I lift both cupped hands to the sides of my head and make an explosion noise while I stretch my fingers out and move them in eith...er direction: Mind. Blown.
The panel below the calendar is a photo album, I guess. Or a screen saver that shows pictures. I watch the slideshow for a bit. It’s mainly pictures of me and Erick as kids, some of us in my now. There’s others of us older, like me graduating college in my cap and gown—it has to be college because the cap and gown are blue, not black like the ones we wear at Aventura. Plus I look older. Then there’s one of me, Reenzie, Amalita, and Taylor. How old are we there, twenty-six?MoreLess
