Time Capsule

Yes, I had to put the PRNDL in here again. It was the joke of my childhood, Mr. Moseby is timeless :)

"Come on Riley, we gotta go! I'll grab the twins." I shout down the hall, quickly rounding up our kids, Rowan and Sabrina. They may be twins, but each of them resembles one of us more than they resemble the other. Rowan was the carbon copy of Riley while Sabrina was identical to me. Their personalities, on the other hand, are completely different. Sabrina was the klutzy goofball while Rowan was the rebel, meaning that each of them had a resemblance to Riley and I, whether it be physical appearance or personality.

"Mom!" Rowan complains. "I don't understand why I have to go. Just take Sabrina, she actually wants to go!"

"La la la." Sabrina skips down the hall, grabbing a shovel. I shake my head, finding it weird to see someone that looks just like me skip, something that I would never do.

"Rowan, we don't have time for this!" I say, dragging her down the hall where Riley and Sabrina were waiting for us.

"Don't worry Mom, I got her!" Sabrina chirps, taking my place. I flash her a grateful glance. "It's so weird to see the copy of you be the helpful one." Riley teases me, making me roll my eyes.

"Yeah yeah, come on, let's go." I say, the four of us heading to the car. Riley pulls out of the driveway and onto the road. I smile when looking at the 'PRNDL', the name that Riley still calls the shift lever to this day.

"What are you grinning at?" Riley asks, keeping her eyes on the road.

"The PRNDL." I answer, chuckling a bit.

"Would you like AM or FM?" Riley says again, an earsplitting smile breaking on her face once again. I snort, remembering her 16 year-old self, saying those exact words. The rest of the car ride was in a comfortable silence with a couple more complains coming from Rowan.

We arrive at the house just in time. The four of us get out of the car and run to the backyard, where Lucas and Farkle (along with children of their own) were waiting for us.

"It's about time!" Lucas exclaims. "Peyton here was threatening to throw a tantrum if we waited any longer." Lucas gestures to his seven year-old kid.

"You got threatened by your kid, Huckleberry?" I raise an eyebrow. Lucas rubs his neck sheepishly. "Yeah..." He admits.

"Where's Mrs. Huckleberry?" I ask.

"She couldn't make it." Lucas shrugs.

"Hey Farkle." Riley says.

"Hey Riley, Maya." Farkle greets back. We haven't seen him in a couple years, he's always been too busy traveling the world with his wife (Smackle) and his son. "I don't believe I've introduced you guys to Corey yet. He just turned eleven a couple days ago." He gestures to his son, who was grinning sheepishly at Rowan.

Do I see young love beginning to blossom or what? I glance at Rowan, who was smiling back at Corey. Riley, Sabrina, and I all share a knowing look.

"Hi." Corey waves shyly.

"Alright, let's get to digging." Lucas says, grabbing his shovel and proceeding to dig.

After about half an hour of digging, we still haven't found it. "Where on Earth did we put this da-" I quickly stop myself from cursing after I see Lucas, Farkle, and Riley all shoot me dirty looks. "Dang, I was gonna say dang. Where did we put the dang time capsule!?"

I glance around to see everyone still digging except for Sabrina. "Sabrina, aren't you going to help?" Riley asks.

"I did for about ten minutes, but all I found was this old wooden box." Sabrina answers, pulling the box out.
