"Ah.." I opened my eyes and sighed. "Mabel?" I see Carissa passed out next to me. "Who?" A lady walks in, "Oh!" We both scream at the same time, we also faint at the same time. I wake up ,  I noticed that the lady was still out cold. Carissa hadn't fainted instead she looked intrigued. "Remember those stories your aunt told us? When we we're little?" She asks. I shake my head. Carissa sighs. "Long ago there was man, he had a wife. Now the wife sold tea ingredients, one day she came across an ingredient she'd never seen before. She decided she wanted to test it on someone, the best option to her, was her husband. So she prepared a tea, and when her husband came home she sat him down and gave him the tea. He drank heartily, since he'd worked hard that day.  But after his last sip... " She paused. "Poof! He was gone. The women was shocked! She spent year studying, she found, that if one person with the same name as the other person was drinking tea with gold coin weed in it, they'd switch spaces. Her husband never came, but she found a cure while she was studying. If the people at the same time drank copper coin tea they'd come back to their own worlds." Carissa started crying, "it's nearly impossible!" I wrapped my arm around her. "He was alone, right?" I ask. "Yes.." She responds. "While at least we have each other!" That doesn't comfort Carissa much. "But-" before she could finish the sentence the women had woken up. "Who are you! I need the cops, me oh my!" The lady screeched. "Ma'am, please, we need your help." I said grabbing for her sleeve. "No!" She jerked away. "Creeps in my house! Where's my Petra? and, and, Carissa!" She was having a total meltdown. "Ma'am! I can help you find them!" The lady rushed the room screaming; "Petra! Carissa!" Carissa ran after her. I stood shocked, what was I to do? Carissa came back a few minutes later with the lady. "This is Mabel, she wants us to call her Mrs. Mabel though."  I stood hesitantly not wanting to scare her. "I want, you, to, tell, me, the, story." She said slowly. Carissa told the story, the lady nodding every now and then. "How'll I get my baby back now?" Mrs. Mabel whined. "Your her aunt right?" I roll my eyes. "No, actually i'm not." She snapped. "Your her mom?" I ask questioningly. "No, i'm Carissa's aunt. But I love them both very much! And how'll I break it to their parents?" Mrs. Mabel sat down. "Look, i'll need your help, to find the copper weed, for the tea." Carissa said. "Why, should I help you! Your the reason i'm stuck in this mess." I took a deep breath, "us?! Why'd you give them that tea?!" I burst out. Carissa shoots me a warning glance. Mrs. Mabel stands up, "out, now!"
