Backwards Part 3
It was a very boring day at work. Inputing numbers that had no meaning. He didn't really have to, but he knew that if he didn't he would go crazy from boredom.
He stayed in his office during lunch, eating something Monica made him out of a brown paper bag. Chandler didn't have anywhere to go, so he just stayed there. He couldn't wait to get home.
Chandler sighed. 'Well, I got half the day left before I can see Monica. I better find something else to think of.'
That was a ritual. He would always try to concentrate hard on something other than Monica. It worked, for about thirty seconds. But of course, his mind would always wonder back to her. He sighed again. 'It's going to be yet another very long day.
When he got home, he was surprised to see Monica not there. She was always there when he got home. And expecially today . . . . Chandler looked all over the house, and soon knew for sure that she was not there. He checked the answering machine, and Monica's voice filled the air.
"Hi, hon. I'm so sorry I'm not there right now. There was a big problem and I have to work late. Don't worry, I'll make it up to you later. . . . Love you! Bye." Then there was the familiar beep of the answering machine signaling that the message was finished.
"Perfect," was all Chandler could say. He slumped down on the couch and flipped on the TV so his mind could melt, at least for a short time. That way he wouldn't have to think about how this day was turning out.
Monica wasn't actually working late at the restaurant. Granted, she was at the restaurant, but she wasn't working for that. "Chandler is going to love this!" she said to herself.
What she was actually doing was cooking Chandler his favorite meal. So, she was kinda working, but she would refur to it as fun. Monica was going to bring it all over to Ross' and have him call and invite Chandler over. Ross would then go, leaving Monica to surprise Chandler with a beautiful dinner together. It was all perfectly planned.
Monica would have cooked at Ross', but he didn't have all the necessary supplies she would need to make it perfect.
Everything was almost finished. She smiled to herself, thinking of the look on Chandler's face when he saw all this.
When everything was done, she brought it into her car and started driving home. Monica knew that she had time to spare, so she decided to stop at the store and pick up a bottle of wine.
She walked inside Quick Stop, and was about to head over to where the wine was, when she heard the door burst open behind her. Somehow she knew that when she turned around, a terror worse than her most dreadful fear would be standing there, waiting for her.
"Everyone lie down on the floor and no one will get hurt!"
Monica slowly turned around. It was as if everything was in slow motion. There were two guys with black masks and guns. One of them was shouting orders and the other was starting to walk up to the counter with a box.
"I said lie down on the floor! NOW!"
Monica quickly got down on her stomach. She was surprised that she could even move. She had been rooted to the spot ever since the door opened.
"That is a bomb!" The guy shouting things said, motioning to the other man holding the box. "At any time I can just press this button and this place will be blown sky-high! I am hoping that that will not have to happen!" Monica established that he was the leader, ordering everyone around while the other guy just stood there.
The other guy set the box on the counter. Everyone in the store looked at it with fear in their eyes. Monica looked around. There were about twenty people in there. She glanced to her rightand saw a man and a woman lying very close to each other crying. They kissed and held hands. Monica immediately thought of Chandler. She was crying now. 'Chandler I am so sorry. I just want to be home with you right now. I'm so sorry this had to happen today, on our second anniversary.'
THE END
Okay, sorry it was so short. Umm, I hope you all got that. If you don't, look at the title, or one reviewer had the idea. I did actually get it from that movie (Momento), even though I never actually saw it. This was harder to write than you may think, which explains the short chapters. Oh, and the emergency in the kitchen in the first chapter, just use your imaginations. If you cannot possibly think of any way that there could be an emergency in the kitchen, then it was: they forgot to make food for a huge wedding that they thought was next week, but it was actually tomorrow. There. (sounds dumb, but it probably happened somewhere) Oh, and if you still have no idea what I'm talking about with the title and the movie, e-mail me @ SparkleJewel7887@aol.com Please review!
