My life was the same old thing, wake up, go to work, ride the bus back to school and sit in class all day. Until this one day, my teacher was talking and then it looked like he was changing forms, I thought I was nuts, but I'm getting ahead of myself..

For years people have came up to me and said "you're her", at first it was kinda creepy and weird, but after 5 years, you kinda get used to it.
Other than that my life was pretty normal, I went to the university of massachusetts, worked at the local library, and spent most of my day reading.
My room was a wreck, thanks to V, my roommate. Today was Saturday, so I knew I would have to clean the room up, because she wouldn't be home until the morning. She stays out partying every weekend. I liked the dorm when she wasn't there, it was relaxing. It was just me and the white walls, the beds, the window that blinded me during the day, and the giant bookcase that held my favorite books. As I started cleaning, I noticed something, one of my books was laying on the floor, I haven't read it in forever. It's called "the curb", it's a book about someone getting kicked out of a house and their life after it. A page was bookmarked, page 112. I don't remember bookmarking it. I continued cleaning. When I finally got done, I decided to go to the bookstore. As I stepped on the bus, I noticed this guy. He was in a tan trench coat. He was sitting on the bench. Looking nervous. I sat next to him, to try to comfort him. He didn't even look at me. Like I wasn't there. But I just brushed it off. When we got to my stop I stood up, to get off. He also stood up. I gave him a weird look, seeing as I'm just about the only business the bookstore has. I sat on the steps, waiting for him to go by so I could see why he was here and where he was going. As he walked by he looked at me. And I looked at him. He gasped. I said, "Let me guess, you were going to say 'you're her', right?". He slowly shook his head yes. I rolled my eyes. "Well buddy I don't know who you're looking for but it's not me, I guess I have a doppelgänger or something because I sure do get that a lot." He said, "No, You're her. You're the one that sees all." I just gave him a weird look and went into the bookstore. I've only ever heard 'you're her' I've never gotten the 'you're the one who sees all'. That was pretty weird. I check to see if my book is there. I've been waiting a month for it because some dickface doesn't know how to read correctly. On the book it says, 'can be checked out for 2weeks MAX'. It's been four. And it's still not there. I decided to leave the bookstore. When I got back to the dorm, Vinny was there. She looked upset. I said,"Hey are you okay? You usually don't come home this early.". She told me she just felt kinda sick. I got her some soup from the cafeteria. Even though we don't really talk a lot, Vinny and I still take care of each other.
