I logged onto my email account. In front of me was the keyboard, and the slip with Terry's email on it. It took me two days, but I managed to find a homeless shelter. The guy there wasn't freaked out by my white skin, which was a surprise, considering what life was like back at my home universe.
I clicked on the 'write' section, then entered the word hello in the subject line. Then I typed in Terry's email and began writing.
I checked my email account four times a day now, even though it was two days since Persephone left. I was kind of worried about her, and I wanted to make sure she was okay. Shockingly enough, there was an email from her.
And it came a lot quicker than I had expected.
We were in the middle of math class, and we had to learn about the radius circle theorem. We were supposed to be typing up a problem involving it and how it can be solved. I kind of didn't know because I was always sleeping in class, so I really didn't care. What I did care about was whether or not the teacher caught me (I can't even remember his name).
Making sure no one was watching me, I clicked on Persephone's email and read it.
I knocked on the old man's door and waited. I could hear footsteps coming up. And barking.
Slowly, the door opened as it creaked. The old man was there, and boy he did not look happy.
"Terry," he said sternly. That's when it became clear to me.
He knew about Persephone.
"We need to talk."
