Abbey's POV
June of 2013
I woke up at 7:30 AM
It was raining outside. I went to the kitchen to make some coffee, stepmom was also there,
"It's kinda weird, it's raining yet it's summer." I said, to start a conversation with the witch,
she then replied, "You are weird! Summer's over, hurry up or you'll miss your first day of school."
I flinched, haaaah? "What do you mean? Like I slept a year? Again?! Oh no! something's really wrong. This ain't right!" she rolled her eyes and continued making breakfast, I rushed back to my room, Dawn was already preparing her "school stuffs", not again! Am I crazy? No, maybe I'm magical.
Dawn gave me the "not-again-look"
"Don't tell me you have those weird dreams again? No more zombies or aliens, okay? Don't kill my vibe I'm excited for school." - she said.
"No, I am magical! I'm just here on earth for a month or two, then I sleep and then I wake up and it's another year." - I proudly replied.
"You high or something? Aren't you going to school? You're freakin' late!"
"Nope! I'm going to sleep and wake up on my wedding day. Maybe I'm a time traveler, I'm not here permanently, you can hear me now but it won't be long till I travel to the future,"
"Crazy!!"
----
Actually, I was just messing with Dawn, to be honest, this thing creeps me, I cannot imagine how the heck can I do that.
----
So I'm already 3rd year in college and 17 years old? I didn't even celebrated my birthday, I'm too young for my age, I already forgot the lessons, I didn't even know my subjects, I went to the Engineering Department and looked for my name, I'm sure I took up Industrial Engineering, there's no way I can be wronged.
But I cannot find my name on the list of student's who are enrolled in the program, I went to the Student's Affair Office, they thought I was playing tricks, they don't understand my condition, and I'm sure it'll just freak them out,
"We found your name Miss, you are currently enrolled at the Arts and Sciences Department, taking up Psychology." - the front desk lady told me,
"Did I shift?" - I asked.
"No, Are you sure you're Name is Abbigail Kant? coz we cannot find a name Abbigail Kant enrolled in this school." - she asked me suspiciously,
"Ofcourse I am. My last name is Kant!"
"So you're Dawn Kant?"
I rolled my eyes and left the office.
My life is getting worst, I cannot remember anything from the past years, what's happening to me?
I just sleep and then wake up a year ahead, maybe Dawn is also experiencing this, maybe she forgot what happened to her last 2010.
----
Then I'm here. 4th floor, I scanned my name on the bulletin, "Psychology Society" , and I found my name, with my subjects. I only took up 6 subjects? wow that's cool.
I went straight to the first period room, Cognitive Psychology. Gaaaad, this subject, it's very foreign for me. tssssk
----
After class I went to the library to chill, as I opened the library door I bumped on a guy.
Hey, this guy looks familiar, his things were scattered on the floor I didn't mind helpin him pick it up since it was not my fault.
"Hey, watch your step!" - he warned.
"Lewis?" - I remember this guy, he was the clumsy faggot at the bar, the guy who told me it was Summer when I had my first time travel or what you call that weird shit, the guy who went inside my room to take a nap and the guy whom Dawn was talking to last week.
"Oh hey. zup? Hmmm let me guess, you're not Dawn right? So who are you now?" - he said teasingly.
"What? I'm Abbey. You always mistaken me by my sister." - I replied.
"AHh right. So you are Dawn's sister this time?" - Lewis
"What do you mean this time? are you okay?" -Me
"Yes I am. Are you?" - Lewis
"Crazy." - Me.
I left him and went inside the library.
"Hahaha wait up, I'm coming with you, we have the same sched." - he was trying to catch up with me.
This guy is so annoying, he keeps on talking, maybe he forgot we are in the library, his voice is not that loud though, but still, I cannot concentrate on the book I'm reading. He told me half about his life, urghhh.
----
Lewis is 1 year ahead of me, he was studying at the other school but he transfered here when he discovered that Dawn was studying here. He shifted Psychology, because for him he wants to help those who do not understand themselves. I was amazed by his purpose, very innocent.
The bell rang for the next period, we really have the same subjects. He also has 6 subjects only.
----
This is very unusual, I feel comfortable and uncomfortable at the same with him. He talks too much, I just listened.
He said he knew Dawn since she was in high school, howcome I didn't know him? or maybe Dawn just didn't introduce any friends because of our uncle. tsssk
---
After class he drove me home. But we stopped a distance from our house because the wicked witch might scold me if she sees me coming out from a guy's car.
I didn't wave goodbye just got out of the car immediately, and rang the doorbell. Dawn opened the door and peeked outside, I blocked her view and went straight upstairs.
Dawn followed.
"He's cute!" she teased.
I blushed.
I suddenly felt weird.
