Michelle opened her eyes slowly. Bright sunlight blocked her field of vision but it cleared after a moment. I'm still alive, but how? She saw bars on her right side and a mobile with cartoon animals on it spinning above her. Oh no I'm a baby!
Her mom walked over to her. "How is my sweet little girl?"
Maybe I can explain what is going on. "Ah ba bab." Baby talk?! Just great!
"Hey there." Her dad said. "Would you like to go for a walk?"
That doesn't sound like a bad idea. Michelle smiled.
"A little window shopping?"
Almost there.
"Go to the antique store?" He nudged his wife playfully with his elbow. "What do you think?"
She sat up waving her arms. Ding ding ding! Give the man a prize!
"Let's not go to Abigail's." she replied
"What's wrong with Abigail's?"
Yeah, what's wrong with Abigail's? Michelle frowned.
"Everything there costs a pretty penny."
Then give her the penny!
"She's getting fussy, maybe we shouldn't go anywhere." her mom said.
Oh yeah? Michelle laughed loudly.
"She's fine, we'll just browse. Come on." he said.
"Ok."
Jumping up and down she laughed again. Lets go people times a wasting and I'm not getting any older.
Her dad pushed her in a stroller down the street and turned into a shop. The shop was filled with a lot of old dusty collectables.
"Hey Abigail." her mom said calling over the the shopkeeper. A nice lady with graying hair.
Clock clock where is the clock? Michelle looked around and spotted it in the corner that read 11:59. There's only a minute left.
Her parents went off with Abigail and she climbed out of the stroller. Walked over to the clock. She climbed the stairs and onto a dresser in front of the clock, knocking off a glass vase.
Oops.
Michelle continued up and waited for the clock to strike 12. What she didn't notice was the she sent another object tumbling to the ground, breaking off one of the numbers on the clock. The hand slipped into the next spot and she reached out for the bird. That is when the adults on the other side of the store took notice of the toddler.
"Grab that baby!" Abigail yelled.
"Michelle get down from there!" her dad yelled running over with her mom and the shopkeeper close behind.
She wrapped her fingers around the head turning it back around. In a flash Michelle was back in her family's living room.
Her dad ran into the room. "Michelle, I've told you once, I've told you a hundred times. Stay away from this clock." He then looked over the clock. "Your 15 so act like it."
"Wait, I'm 15?" She looked at her arms and smiled widely. "I am! I'm back! Dad I love you so much!" she stated hugging him.
"I love you too sweetheart but stay away from this clock." he replied.
Her mom walked into the room, smiling. "Alright you two lunch is going to get cold if you don't hurry."
"Mom!" Michelle ran over hugging her. "I love you. Where's Tommy, he can't miss lunch."
"Who's Tommy?" her mom asked.
Michelle looked at the family portrait hanging on the wall, it only showed three faces. Confused she ran upstairs to her brothers room but he wasn't there, it was her mom's study.
"hey Michelle come here for a sec." her dad called.
She shook her head and closed the door behind her. "What's up dad?"
"I found the flaw Abigail was talking about. See right there, the year 2005 is missing." he pointed out the spot and sure enough the number was gone.
"That's the year Tommy would have been born." she said.
"Who's Tommy?"
"Oh, it's no one." she replied. "No one at all."
"You goof." he stated. "Your mom's waiting for us come on." Walking out of the room
"Yeah, I'll been there in a minute." she yelled after him. It looks like Tommy was never born. She smirked. I should probably go back in time and get him but I'm kinda hungry. Maybe some other day, maybe.
A/N: This is the last chapter I hope you enjoy. I am not continuing this.
