Trapped [Complete]

Chapter 17

I'M SO SO SO SORRY ABOUT THIS WAIT SO SORRY HOPEFULLY THIS ENDING WILL BE ACCEPTABLE OKAY SORRY.

Sienna gaped at Alice in shock. After looking through the book, even though they still hadn’t found the name of it, Alice discovered a way for them to merge the two worlds.

At least, she hoped she found a way.

It was simple, she wasn’t sure if Sienna could go back through, but Alice knew that she probably could. From there, she would have Sienna write a story about the real world, just her day-to-day life, and bring it with her to Bianna.

David, obviously, would recognise her and so she could explain why she was in Bianna and what Sienna was doing. After counting it all out, fifteen minutes in real time was one day in Bianna time. She figured she could leave at midnight, real time, probably waking up in Bianna a few hours later, so only a few minutes for Sienna.

Then at 12:15 real time and midnight the next day for Alice they would both read the names, (Bianna and Real life), at the same time and say “I wish I was there” and hopefully that would merge the two worlds together.

That was if it worked.

If not, then Alice was probably stuck in Bianna the same as everyone else because she still wouldn’t be sure how to get home. That’s why Sienna was skeptical of the whole plan.

“Are you sure you’re okay with being stuck in Bianna forever?”

Sienna had asked multiple times and it was starting to get on Alice’s nerves, she replied with the same thing each time.

Alice shrugged, “if it doesn’t work, I don’t know what we’ll do, but I know that I’ll be okay. Don’t worry about me.”

They planned to do this in a couple of days, that way they had time to explain what was going on to Colin and her parents and also had time to explain to Sienna’s parents where she had been. She just hoped everyone would understand.

When her mother caught glimpse of  her, she yanked Sienna into an incredibly tight hug that knocked the wind out of her and kissed the top of her head. “Oh, pumpkin, I’m so glad you’re okay! I was so worried. Alex would call me every couple of days to let me know how the search was going but he hadn’t called in a couple of days so I figured it wasn’t.”

Sienna let out a soft laugh, “aww mama, I’m okay, don’t worry. I’ve always been okay. That’s why I’m here, actually. I wanna tell you what happened.”

“Is it horrifying?”

Sienna laughed again, “no, mama! It’s wonderful. It was some of the best months, erm, days of my life. In fact, I’m married now, but that comes later on in the story.”

Sienna was like a giddy child at the thought of seeing Archer again. Her husband. The thought made her so excited. It had only been a day, but she knew that for him it had been a month, and that felt way too long. I mean, you shouldn’t lose time with your spouse the day after you get married.

“Oh?” Her mom replied, “C’mon in here, hon, I’ll make some coffee for us, grab some coloring books and we can talk about it.” Sienna smiled at the thought of coloring with her mom. It was something they had always done when they had serious things to talk about, just to keep the situation not too heavy.

Not always sad things, of course. In Sienna’s mind, the tale of Bianna was not a sad thing, in fact in her mind it was a marvelous thing, something that improved her whole life. Something that made her realised you can’t take each day with your family and those you love for granted.
