In a time far in the future, time travel has become widely available to all civilians from the comfort of their own homes. The ability to visit future events in history, or past memories from your life is possible, however you are prohibited from interacting with those from the past. A bubble of time exists around the viewer, allowing them only to observe, without being seen or heard by those around them.
Evelyn, 17 years old and enthralled with the stories of the past, is a frequent flyer through time, experiencing and learning about the world through the centuries she visits.
She finds herself in New York, circa 2019, watching the crowds bustling by trying to hurry to their job interviews or business meetings, completely mindless of the world around them. Amongst the sea of black suits and brown trench coats, a pair of sun kissed hazel eyes meet her gaze. He's looking right at her, but how is that possible?

Instead - she's still working at the small town coffee shop where she got her first job.

Because the dreams or nightmares that Evie had started having a little over a year ago now are anything but normal. Dreams of an endless void of fog. They've persisted and refused to leave her alone now for months. And Evie is haunted by the chilling feeling that she is not alone in the fog.

That something has changed and she's been suddenly put at the epicenter. At the precipice of something life altering. Or world ending.Complete
Lost in Answer
She didn't believe in fate. But somehow, her words reached the wrong person-or maybe, the right one. Evelyn never thought an AI-generated reply could make her feel seen. Never realized that her late-night oversharing wasn't disappearing into the void like she thought. Someone was reading. Noah wasn't supposed to notice her. Yet, he did. More than she realized. More than he was willing to admit. It started with words. Thoughts she typed without thinking. Pain she believed was hers alone. But on the other side of the screen, someone understood. And somehow, that changed everything. And then, as if the universe wasn't done playing with them... She kept running into the same stranger. But maybe... just maybe... Noah was never a coincidence.
