I’ve gone back in time. But only in my head? I’m strangely curious, and not panicked like a moment ago. Ok, this time I’m going to figure this out. My brain is trapped in some sort of loop. Maybe I was chosen. I need to think. Chosen for what? Something that has happened that I can’t remember? Or maybe some event that I am able to predict? That is what is unclear. Whether I’m remembering my past. Or seeing the future. Or just dreaming the whole time. Maybe right now… I am in a dream that I dreamt before and forgot about, but now I’m dreaming it again so that I have a second chance to save the world, then I can go back in time for real… Or maybe this moment right now is the beginning, and the past and future all begin from this point forward, and I have this chance to restart the universe from the beginning… Give me some paper! Someone, help! I’m not going to get another chance like this! Once I fall asleep, everything is going to restart, and I’m going to think this was all a dream, and I’m going to let everyone down… Maybe I’ve already let everyone down. So why was I chosen? Sigh. I’m just trying to be logical. But it’s making me dizzy. My parents are here. Now I’m emotional again. They say they love me. Whatever. I don’t have time to cry. Ok, where was I? I’ve gone back in time. But only in my head…
