I retrieved everything from the car and brought it inside. When Suzy saw the rest of the children she rubbed her eyes and nodded. I opened the sliding doors and let the children roam the outdoors as they ate ice cream and ice lollies, while Kevin was a sleep in his make shift cot. They looked to be having fun and no first aid was needed. I pulled Aletta to the side but where we could see them still.

"I was speaking to Suzy in her natural state, she told me everything I need to know… You believe me, right?" I spluttered everything I had just experienced to my girlfriend.

"Yeah, I believe you, but she didn't tell you what to do to get out of this mess, did she?" Aletta looked flustered. The redness on her nose and under her eyes made it seem like she was drunk, but I knew she hadn't.

"That's something we'll figure out, right now, let's try and enjoy ourselves, we don't want to emotionally scar the poor souls!" I said being happy and good hearted by force.

"Mark, you said that, Suzy said that they're still within contact with their older selves. Don't play the bullshiting game. This is real, this is our life. I need to know how!" Aletta was in no mood to completely come to terms with what we knew and what we didn't.

I sighed and spoke. "Let's just try, for them, for their poor souls and, most of all, do it for me. Please."

She nodded put a brave face on and walked outside to interact with the kids. I decide to stay in the building for some cool down time. Then I remembered the reason she is so angry about this is because it's 6 years for me and Aletta… tomorrow! What do I do? What can I do?

I tried to look oblivious and happy when I went outside. Suzy and Arin were making dirt castles, Dan, Barry and Ross were being aeroplanes and wait… Ross? Aletta was sitting with Kevin in the shade. When it was about 5 in the evening I called them all in and got Arin and Suzy cleaned up.

"Guys, I wanna remember today! Can I take a picture?" After I asked they all came running in towards me. Aletta and I found there older selves' camera, set the capture time for five minutes so that I could get everyone sorted. 5 minutes later the picture was taken and it was cute! I put it on to the laptop that they never lock or turn off and set the picture to the desktop background. I also bluetoothed the picture to both mine and Aletta's phone a day to remember.

That night Aletta instructed them to all be good with no noise. I didn't know why, she just did it, I guess. Everyone's sleeping arrangement was the same aside from mine, Aletta and Kevin's as we were all in the master bedroom. Before we slept, I whispered, "I'm sorry, I understand your anger." In to hear ear and then closed my eyes ready to sleep.
