Lauren couldn't believe her luck. She was spending yet another afternoon at the ice cream shop she discovered on her first day in this Lima when a familiar face came through the door. Lauren wasn't positive, but the girl looked exactly like her friend Mercedes from home. Her real home, from 2011. Not sure if it was really her or some weird Twilight zone inspired clone, Lauren tentatively approached the girl, tapping her on the shoulder.
Mercedes hadn't really paid much attention to the people within the ice cream shop, she was slowly growing accustomed to the fact that she didn't really know anyone in this town. So when someone tapped her on the shoulder and spoke to her, it took her by surprise.
She looked up at the girl who had tapped her on the shoulder, and a look of recognition crossed her face. "Lauren?" She truly hoped that this was the Lauren she knew, the Lauren from 2011.
The relief Lauren felt when the girl before her said her name could not be explained. Thank the heavens! She was no longer alone in this freaky twist of fate, or whatever this was.
Lauren nodded, "Yours truly." She took the empty stool next to Mercedes. "If I said 2011, would that mean anything to you?" She raised an eyebrow,
Mercedes absolutely beamed when she realized it was actually Lauren Zizes. The Lauren Zizes from 2011 for that matter! She nodded at Lauren's question, "Yes. It means that either I'm dreaming a very elaborate dream that you're in, or we've both somehow managed to land ourselves more than fifties years in the past. ....how did we do that, Lauren?"
