What if we lived in a universe where you could see the day that our friends and family where going to pass, except for yourself.
The concept of the whole timeline thing is dumb, like who came up with it? The way our society works is when everyone becomes so civilized and nice to you, the end is near. There was apparently a time where you never knew when someone was about to pass, so you had to be nice all the time. I think that's the way it should be, everyone being nice to each other.
There is one rule that apply to the timeline though:
1. You are forbidden to tell someone when they are about to die, this is punishable by an error on your timeline to where no one knows when you are going to pass.
The timeline is part of a supernatural being that no one exactly knows what it is, but it always comes through on it's promise to our society, to give people numbered days to live life to the fullest.
I am going to let you know a little bit about me, my name is Andreana Faith and I am 18 years old, but here are more interesting parts of my life.
My family consists of my parents Lara & Ryan, my older brother Theo and my younger brother Alex. Naturally brothers can be a royal pain in the butt and they live up to that claim. I hope Theo leaves the household soon because maybe then Alex won't be such a hooligan.
Something interesting about the timeline is that it's an unspoken agreement among everyone to not discuss it, carry out business as normal and live life to the fullest regardless of the number of the days left.
A rumor I have heard is that there are people out there that don't display a timeline, and they go into isolation and undergo mass testing. It is also said that these people are very dangerous and must be regarded as such. These people are the cause of the dangers that occur in the world, whether it's flooding, or mass destruction, fires, etc. The people without a timeline are called 'Swiths' and must be avoided at all costs.
But enough about the society let me tell you more about me:
1. Buy me food and I am yours, but you can't make fun of how much I eat because then I will pummel you to the ground.
2. I love swimming, and by swimming I don't mean chilling by the pool in a slightly skimpy bikini, I like swimming in my practice suits, having weird tan lines and being with my crazy friends (I do the other definition quite a bit too).
3. I routinely watch Netflix, so if I say "It's a maybe, I will ask my mom" and you get a "No", it's because I am watching NCIS, so get off my case.
4. Sleeping & reading are also go-to's when I am bored, so you could always get me a Half-Priced Books Gift Card.
My name is Andreana Faith, I am 18 years old, and this is my story about how my year got turned upside down, possibly for the better..
