SWEET DREAMS
Ending: Waking Up to Today
"Are you sure that she's okay?"
"I'm positive. She must have fallen and hit her head hard enough to pass out. The poor dear."
Suddenly, Karen moved her body. She could feel that there were people around her, so she decided not to open her eyes until some of them left the scene.
"Karen? Are you awake?"
Those words echoed in Karen's mind. It was her mother... daughter... someone. She opened her eyes and looked up at Sasha. Unless she had travelled back to the present, this was not her mother.
"Jeff, Jeff! She's awake!"
Lifting herself up, Karen gave Sasha a hug, and Jeff too, when he came running over.
"This is so unreal. I felt like I had a strange dream last night. You see, I fell asleep and woke up in the past. Mum and I switched places and I became married to daddy" -Jeff giggled- "Grandma became my mother. So our entire family switched places basically. But it wasn't just us, though. Everyone else was effected, too. God, I'm just happy that dream is over. It was so... I'll have to find new words to describe that dream!"
Her parents had some news for her. They just didn't know how to deliver it.
"Karen... Rick is gone. He cheated on you with Elli. They've left for the city. I hope you're okay with it."
Nodding, Karen replied, "I don't want that asshole for a husband anyways. I can make it on my own, and besides, I was pregnant last night! I sure hope I still am, or I'll be the most frightened person of all time."
Her parents laughed and hugged her. It was good to have Karen.
