Chapter 7 – Eh, Not So Much

Let's try some other way of bringing her memory back.

The title is sorta an answer to this chapter's brother chapter in AYA, which is called "Any Bells Going Off, Izzy?" I say brother because they're related to each other, sorta how brothers and sisters are related. So this is the sister story of And You Are?.

ranting never seems to get old with me


Phineas sat down next to me in the grass and opened up a photo album. The first picture was of a little girl, apparently on her birthday. I figured this girl must be me. I was bouncing on a trampoline with Phineas and his brother Ferb.

Phineas pointed to the picture. "This is back on your 5th birthday."

He handed the album to me. "Wow, we look so little!" I said, turning the page.

This picture was the three of us again, this time on what looked like a beach, though I have no clue where.

"Where was this?" I asked.

"Over at Danville Lake," he replied. "Anything familiar?"

I looked closely over the picture, and realized Perry was there, too. "Hmm…not really…I think Perry in the background is the only thing familiar."

We turned another page, and a picture of us riding bikes down the street greeted me. And another showed us in front of what looked like a dentist's office.

I could only remember bits and pieces from each picture, but not the complete memory. Some of what I remembered didn't seem very significant at all, like the design on Phineas' bike, ice cream flavors, and something about a yellow frog in a swamp. I couldn't recognize anyone, either, except for Phineas, Ferb, Perry, Baljeet, and Buford.

"Alright, how about this one?" Phineas asked me, turning the page again. I honestly don't think this is a good approach, because I'm not remembering anything important, and we've been at it for what seems like hours. I don't think it's good for Phineas, either, because he keeps shaking for no reason. I glanced over at him then, and sure enough, he was shaking violently.

"Umm, are you okay? You don't look too good," I said. His shaking scared me almost as much as the dog that looked like it had rabies.

"Wha-oh, I'm alright," he muttered. "Really, I'm fine."

Ferb was staring down at Phineas, clearly as scared for him as I was. He looked like he wanted to talk to him alone, so I decided to go inside for a bit. "Uh, I'll be right back. I gotta use the bathroom," I said. It was the best excuse I had. I got up and walked towards the door on the house, then realized I had no clue where the bathroom was. I didn't want them to get suspicious, so I ran back and asked, "…Where's the bathroom?"

Phineas smiled up at me. I never noticed, he has a really nice smile. Maybe I didn't notice because he never smiles that much. "Third door on your left," he said.

"Thanks!" I said, then ran back to the house.

I figured I'd give Ferb five minutes, then I'd go back outside.
