Mayim
It was the morning after Jenna and her sleepover. They slept pretty late because of catching up more, watching movies, and eating junk food while drinking cheap wine they bought from a convenience store across the street from Mayim's apartment complex. She was still drooling when Jenna went inside the room and slapped her ass waking her up. She opened her eyes annoyingly and sighs as she sat on her bed. Jenna chuckled and opened the curtain on her windows to allow the natural light inside her room.
"Do you need to do that Jenna Michelle?" she said with exasperation as she squints her eyes because of the bright sunlight from the windows.
"Well you are welcome. How can you even get your work done if you keep slacking like this Mayim Abigail? Stand up and eat your breakfast. You should have some work done before we'll meet Chad later. Hippity-hop quick like a bunny!"
Sighing she stood up and followed her command. As small as she is, she can be quite bossy. And she is scary. If she was a dog, she'd be a chihuahua. Small but terrible, as they say. That she is.
"Okay mooom. Thank you for breakfast Jen. Love you," she said as she left the room making Jenna smile at her.
After breakfast she had a little bit of work done while Jenna was on her couch checking her social media.
"Hey, I just saw a Facebook post about the museum that we will about to go to," Jenna said breaking the silence in her apartment.
"And what does the post says?" she asks as she stood up and went to get a glass of water.
"Today they will be putting up art pieces that are dated back from the 1800s. To be honest, I haven't even seen anything from that time. Except for those movies that depict this time of life. Isn't this exciting? You use really like this May." Jenna says as her voice was filled with nostalgia.
"I did. I don't know what happened." she says as she sat down next to her.
"Well if your wonderful boyfriend has brought you to dates in places that you like to visit, you'll never miss these wouldn't you?" Jenna says with a hint of bitterness.
Mayim just rolled her eyes at her. "Can we stop talking about him just for now? Also, we should get ready by now. I know that you are slower than a turtle to move so off you go!"
"Alright moooom. I am just kidding. Love you," she says mockingly earning an eye roll from Mayim.
Now alone in her living room again, she began to compose the words in her head of the things she would say once she confront Ryan. It would be different once she could not call anybody hers but she never actually felt that he was hers it was kind of the opposite. The more she thought about it the more she realize that everything has not been healthy. But what was her basis, Ryan was her first. She doesn't know what she could get in a relationship. She did what she could even if she wasn't experiencing it. But now, she is certain that she doesn't want or need any of this.
She is better off without him. Period.
Jim
Jim came to his workstation early to finish a commission before so he can have plenty of time from the rest of the day. He usually arrives at work around 9 am and would be done before in the afternoon or depending on what he is working at. As he placed his bag, he went inside the clothing room to put his coat on. He went to grab a chair and sat in front of the canvass as he started to work on another piece of art that needs restoration from discoloration and a few wears. He was well saturated at work that it was already hours of him doing his job. He didn't even notice Kaley coming in.
"Hey, you're here early." she says as she dumps her things on the couch on their workstation.
"Hey." Jim replied while not taking his eyes off the canvass. She walked up behind him and handed him his coffee.
"Thank you, I needed this. And to answer your question, I came here early to free up my time in the afternoon. I will go to the museum today." He simply replied after taking a sip from the coffee and went back at working again.
"Oh right, they will be putting up the art pieces we worked with this week." she said as she went inside the clothing room to grab her coat and put it on herself. After dressing up her eyes widened at something she almost forgot. The medium! Quickly she went up next to Jim and asked him.
"Hey, did you go to the psychic medium I told you about?" Kaley asked. Jim just hummed in response. "Well, how was it? I can't believe you went there and didn't even tell me after you did. I thought that we were best friends?!" she said sulking.
"Best friends?! After you abandoned me for your boyfriend, you expect me to update you about this?" he said dramatically.
"Well..."Kaley started and Jim just glared at her. "Well, you got me," she said in surrender. They just both laughed and Kaley slapped him on his shoulder earning another glare from Jim.
"Come on Jim...You tell me everything. Even the amount of people you've dated and had sex with before. We don't keep secrets from each other," Kaley says as she sighs.
"What do you mean dated and had sex with. I have never told you anything of the sort." he said raising his voice a little.
"Well exactly because you didn't have any," she said earning another glare from Jim. "The point is, we don't hide anything from each other. So tell me what happened." she reasoned.
That is true. Even if Jim would deny it, Kaley has been there for him when he was pondering what was wrong with him for not wanting anything that was wanted by everybody around him. When he was having an identity crisis, Kaley was there with him to ease some of his worries. And he was exactly like that to Kaley as well. When he realized that he was ace, Kaley didn't feel weird about him and had to treat him as how she would before.
They were there for each other through ups and downs. They manage to laugh around the bad and only count the good ones. Anything small or big in their life is known by each other. They are each other's person. He was just giving her a hard time stretching the element of suspense. Looking at her puppy eyes that is rather making him pissed off, he had put an end to Kaley's misery.
Putting his hands up in surrender, "Okay, okay. But I will only tell you later."
"Why not now?" she says pouting while lightly stomping her feet on the floor.
"Well it will take some time. So... treat me to coffee later and accompany me to the museum after then I will tell you everything you want to know."
"Okay..." she sighs. "But tell me everything you saw in great detail or I will poison you in your coffee," she says as she went swiftly back to her station.
"Not if I switch our cups..."
Mayim
After taking a much-needed shower, Mayim dressed and made herself after Jenna. As she was packing her bag for her things, Jenna stopped her from her actions and turned her in front of her.
"You will not go out looking like that right?" Jenna said while eyeing her up and down. "I am down for the choice of clothing but without makeup on? You look like you're barely breathing Mayim. Sit down I will glam you up." Mayim just rolled her eyes at her friend and complied as she was asked to.
Jenna took out the makeup bag that she had in her car earlier and opened it beside Mayim. Grabbing her tube of primer from her makeup bag, she started to put a thin amount of it on her face. She then started to put on a very little amount of foundation on her face and spread it out even on her skin before putting on concealer under her eyes, in between her brows, on the side of his nose, and dotting those very few blemishes she has then blended it out using a blending brush.
"Seriously Mayim, what are you even gonna do without me?" Jenna murmured.
"I would work or mind my own business actually." she responded condescendingly making Jenna shake her head in disbelief.
Continuing her work, she contoured her face using a contour stick and blended it out to her cheekbone, her forehead, and her jawline. She then added her eye shadow color of bronze and copper complimenting her eye color. Jenna then put mascara on her long eyelashes, blush, highlighter, translucent powder, and coral-colored lipstick. After finishing her work, Jenna gave her a hand mirror to look at herself. She was amazed to see herself all dolled up. Appreciating her friend's gesture, she look at her apologetically and thanked her kissing her cheek. After finishing their shenanigans, they both got out of Mayim's apartment and went to a nearby café
Jim
As he called out her name, she replied in kind," I will be there shortly!" Few moments after that she immersed into the living room from a door that seems to be leading to the kitchen.
"Sheldon, I was not informed of your visitation this fine morning," she says in kind as she stood in front of the man who looks exactly like him.
"I just came here and give these to you," he said handing the flowers he bought earlier.
She smiled as she took the flowers from his hands and gazed fondly at her lover. "I love it. Thank you."
"You are certainly welcome, my love." he said as his hands cupped her jaws and bought his face closer to her sealing her lips in a kiss. It was brisk yet indulgent. Breaking from the kiss, they just stared at each other lovingly.
Everything was shown to him in a form of a dream. Everything was shown to him at a kind of brisk pace as if it is a movie at a faster play speed.
Sheldon Cooper and his lover Amelia Farrah Fowler met in the town of San Gabriel Mission (Now popularly known as Pasadena) on the 24th of May in the year 1845. Sheldon was doing the normal thing he does every week, to purchase the materials for his hobby as a painter. Besides these, his family owns a liquor company named 'Blitzed' which was widely popular at that time. Sheldon does not share an interest in consuming their product although he knows all the things one should know in running in maintaining the business.
He was aloof and has always preferred to be alone, being the youngest heir of their kin, he was just left to do what he wants, and what he had always wanted was to just paint. From the scenery of the daily, down to family portraits, those have been the contents of his pieces that he keeps in a room inside their house. When his help was not needed he would stay at home and be there all the live long day painting whatever comes to his mind or expressing what he feels that day.
But it changed as the date came where he spotted a brunette with wavy soft curls, a sweet smile, and a skin like alabaster. Not to mention her green expressive eyes that express what she speaks. It was safe to say that it was love at first sight. He had been the talk of the town for being over 20 and was still not even married or even interested in any sort of kinship. Yet here he is bewitched by a lady he just saw. Sure his family has tried to arrange a marriage for him for the better future of the company but he has a strong opposition to the idea of forcing a lady to be his betrothed just to save a business. It was ridiculous.
He kept his eye on the lady as she continued to do her actions. Being the shy that he is, he was hesitant to even say hello. But it was his one chance. But what if she was already engaged, or perhaps married? There were a lot of thoughts in his head while keeping his stare at this fine lady. Then all of a sudden, all of the things she was carrying suddenly fell from her arms and to the floor. Without hesitation, Sheldon came to her rescue to pick up her things noticing that some of them were pigments that were rare and could only be purchased in small amounts.
"Do you paint?" he blurted out as he hand them back to her.
"I don't" she replied in kind as she received the fallen objects from him. "Why do you ask kind sir, are you a painter?"
"Yes I am. I-it's just because these pigments are rare and hard to find. I have been looking for these forever." he stuttered in his amusement.
"I was told. We use these pigments to dye fabrics. I am a seamstress and well, I dye and make my own fabric." she replied. This amused him. Looking at the dress she wore, he could also tell that she is one fine seamstress.
"That is wondrous. You seem to be keen on it too. I could tell by the way your dress is made" he slipped making himself red as he cannot contain himself earning a blush from the woman herself.
She chuckled and introduced herself," Thank you for helping me pick up my items. My name is Amelia. But people have been calling me by my cognomen, Amy".
Amy. It sounded good in his head. "It has been a pleasure to meet you, Miss Amy, I am Sheldon." they both shook hands.
And since that day, they have been seeing each other each week. Amy has confirmed that she was unwed. Then they know and hang out with each other more frequently. The more that they spend the time of day together the more that they became drawn to each other. Sheldon then professed his feelings to Amy and courted her for a few months until they became an official couple. They made each other happy and those who are around them.
Being inseparable as they do the things they like to do. On a normal day, Sheldon would just be in front of his canvass and think about his beloved and suddenly his hands would be moving, forming a masterpiece. Amy would be the same by making designs that she thinks Sheldon would appreciate. They have grown fond of each other. They talked about everything and had plans for building a future together. Sheldon became more serious in his contribution to his family's company. And Amy has been the talk of the town for her creations of top-quality clothing. Their relationship was not perfect but Sheldon asked for her hand in marriage as he can't see any other woman to spend the rest of his life with. A month in affiance when a plague hit the globe affecting their small town.
Amy had caught the virus but because of the scarcity of health care at the time, she was left to treat herself at home. Jim saw Amy during the crossover and the face that was once lively has now become pale and feeble. It was such a pitiful sight yet it was something that had already happened so he can't do anything about it.
Grasping his chest, it becoming hard to breathe, Nana had told him yet again that if he needed to stop they could. But he needed to hear what Amy has got to say to Sheldon before her demise.
"Sheldon...my dearest," she smiled weakly as she used all of her strength to cup Sheldon's cheeks wiping the tears that are streaming from his eyes. He can't even bring himself to look at her. "I am sorry that I need to leave so soon," she added making Sheldon whimper.
Putting his hands close to her face he replied, "Honey, I love you. So so much. I cannot imagine loving anybody else the way I feel about you. It will not be the same without you. I will not burden you by asking you to stay here with me, you will just suffer more. I thank the day I met you up until this time that God had allowed us to be together. Please...if you must go, give me enough strength to move on and continue life even if it is not is." he struggled to say as he cannot control his tears from flowing.
Amy smiled weakly and spoke, "I will wait for you, my love. I don't care when and how many years I will wait for you to be back in my arms again. I would want to believe that reincarnation exists so in our next life, we can continue our life together without ending so soon." she said as her voice can be barely heard and her breaths were getting more shallow.
Brushing his hands through her hair lovingly, he smiled through tears. It hurts to smile but he needs to send her lover in this way to not be burdened by his emotions. He nodded weakly and closed his eyes and placed a kiss on her cold hands. His kiss lingered thinking that this will be the last time he can do it. He closed the distance between them savoring the last warmth he could share with his lover and kissed her lips for one last time as tears stained their faces. "I will find you in our next life and I promise you that once I found you, I will never let you go. This I promise you. I love you so much." he struggled to say.
As he pull himself back he noticed that Amy's eyes are closed, and her lips are shaped in a content smile. He couldn't hear her breath. He tried to check her pulse but there was none. He was livid, his brain is trying to process everything.
She's gone. Those words stung in his head as his gaze at the corpse of his lover went immobile.
"Jim! Jim! Can you hear me?!" Nana raised her voice as Jim grasped his chest in pain at what he was seeing. "I will bring you back now!"
Nana then placed her hand on top of Jim's head and whispered a spell. She hurriedly removes the blindfold over his head and gave him a glass of water.
Jim was catching his breath and trying to steady his heartbeat as he was adjusted coming from the crossover to the real world. Nana asked him to inhale and exhale while gently rubbing his back to help him steady his breath.
"That was intense," he uttered as he just recovered from panting. "But Nana, I am still not clear as to why I feel connected to the portrait. And to the woman in my dream. Amy... what is Amy's significance to me?"
"It is intense. All of these hitting you at once," she says as she gently tapped his back as he recovered from all the shock. "Sweety, you are the reincarnation of Sheldon Cooper. The crossover that we just did is not only a brief illustration of the life you used to have. So in the future, you may come to, be conscious of the dreams you will have because they are snippets of the life you used to have and to understand more of the life you have had. From what I understand, he has promised to look for his ladylove." her gaze softens at Jim as she looks up at her. "And to the painting, I am not the one who will answer your question but your past will."
Closing her eyes once again, seeming to be in touch with her spirit guides, she spoke, "I could sense that at some point you have seen each other. Amy she is. And it will happen again or even multiple times that you won't even know about it. Follow your heart and mind with all the decisions and steps you will take in fulfilling the promise you gave to her as Sheldon. It won't be easy because she may be clueless about everything that you know. But once you feel connected to her in this lifetime, everything will come back to her, memory-wise and naturally." he nodded in response to her.
"Thank you, Nana," Jim says genuinely as he held Nana's gaze. "All my life, I have always thought that there was a hole in my life but I don't know what it was since I seem to have everything that I want to be. I just thought that I may be broken for not having a desire that most of my peers have. This might be the answer to that void I am feeling all this time," he confessed while shaking his head in disbelief.
"To be honest I was kind of hesitant to come here. Part of it is because I am hesitant to believe this realm but seeing all of those has my mind blown. I-i..." he added as he opened his arms wide to embrace Nana in a hug.
"You are a good man Jim. I can see that. I know that your heart didn't desire any of these romantic shenanigans but because your heart has been reserved only for her. It is confusing. But once you will get to meet her and burn the fire you once shared everything will feel natural," she added letting Jim go of her embrace.
"Thank you so much. I will keep all of these in mind." He thanked her once again.
After they talked for a bit, Nana explained that his life will not be the same. He will dream often of Amy now that she opened the portal to the time when he was still living as Sheldon. He should keep a journal of his dreams to keep the progress of what memories of his past will be revealed to him. After thanking her once again, Nana gave Jim a cleanse to wish him luck and fortune in his future endeavors. Then as Jim exited the premises, he released a big sigh and looked up to the sky. There were still a lot of questions in his head as he is now alone with his thoughts. Like because now that he knows he is the reincarnation of somebody, should he live according to a life that was once his? Like he is Jim now, is he still Sheldon? Or Sheldon is just a part of him now? What happens if he will not find Amy? Will the past haunt him? What if he will find Amy again but doesn't want to do anything about him?
"So, what am I gonna do now?" he asked himself out loud as he sighs in frustration.
Mayim
"Way to go!" Chad exclaimed and clapped his hands.
"Chad! Will you keep it down?! We are not the only ones who are here" Mayim whisper-yelled at Chad. Chad, Mayim, and Jenna are in a coffee shop waiting for Chad's girlfriend, Chanel.
They met up in this coffee shop since it was near the museum that they are visiting soon. Chad has not seen Jenna for a very long time so they were thrilled to see each other in the flesh again. They were the Powerpuff girls of their batch. Mayim being Blossom, (Author's note: Uhm, duh. Mayim IS Blossom.) Jenna is Buttercup and Chad is Bubbles. The three of them were inseparable even if they took different paths during their academic years. But they have conquered things together as a team. But because of adult life, they do live at a distance. Chad and Mayim live 30 minutes away from each other while Jenna was an hour away. Distance may have kept them physically apart but because of technology, they still communicate frequently. But it is still different to hang out with them physically. To see them face-to-face and to smack them right away when they say something stupid.
Since Mayim and 2 of the people she holds dear were together, she decided to tell them her plans with breaking up with Ryan. She was a bit hesitant at first because she knows all too well that both of them have not approved of her relationship with Ryan and she doesn't know what revelations she will hear. At first, they were fine with them being together as a couple but the more time grows old being in a relationship the more their emotions drifted apart. They were just using each other for pleasure which is not healthy anymore since their original state of affair was as boyfriend and girlfriend, not a fuck buddy or a sex doll. If it doesn't end now, then when? When they will have an unplanned pregnancy that would make them be forced into a marriage that both of them don't seem to want?
"You sure about this Mayim?" Jenna asked her with worry apparent on her face.
"Why wouldn't she be sure Jenna? I mean, it's time for her to finally see her worth. That prick doesn't deserve you at all. Like does she even respect you as his girlfriend? You gave him your heart and all he has is his dick," he said in one breath.
"Oh my God, Chad please calm down. Gosh, I didn't know you hate him that much. And I don't appreciate this vulgarity, we are in public! Why didn't you say anything like this before?" Mayim asked confused at this sudden outburst.
"Well because I could see how happy you were with him even though you are being stupid. I didn't say anything because you were alone all your life and were not dating anybody until he came into your life. And then, he wreaked havoc. What was I supposed to feel? I should not be the one who will break it to you and I am glad you figure this out on your own." he says as he looks down feeling shy from this confession.
"Hey, I played a part in her realization!" Jenna breaks Chad's shyness.
"Okay, shorty! The credit is yours. Thank you," Mayim says comically as her friends were being emotional at the moment.
"I know that this is not something that you ask of me. I know that you want me to be honest with you all the time. But sometimes the truth will break you and I will not bear to see that. I can't. You are like a sister to me Mayim. And I hope you realize that you are not worthy of any of these and that motherfucker. I could speak for both Jenna and me that we don't like to see you like this. I know that part of the reason that you started to lose motivation in life, in general, is because of him. Am I right? Don't I?" Chad asks him. Tears started to sting Mayim's eyes as a memory of somewhere in the past that had intruded on her head.
Mayim and Ryan were at her apartment hanging out over the weekend. Right after her book was published and had caused a stir in the world of novels, she is being pressured to write another one by people who are a fan of her works. She was just in front of her computer trying to start working again as Ryan stood up from laying down on the couch watching tv to take another beer from her fridge.
"Hey babe, can you help me think of a novel to write? I could use your head on this one since you and I share the same taste in books. So I was thin-" Mayim asked but was cut off by Ryan.
"Why don't you get a real job for once?" he asked while opening the can of beer as he sits on the couch.
"What do you mean real job?" she asks confusingly.
"You know, the job that makes you earn money every 15th or 30th day of the month. Where you really work hard to earn money to cover your expenses," he says casually as he drank the beer.
"I work hard in these novels. You can see me here all the time having bad posture while burning my retinas while trying to write and make an honest living."
"Yeah but that honest living is not enough, Mayim. Grow up. You should get a job just as I do. Make use of the educational attainment that you earned. As if you studied for nothing. Like this... is a hobby, not a real job. Go get one," he scoffs at her. "Honest living? You are just tapping nonsense on your computer there," he added with a note of sarcasm while shaking his head in disappointment.
Mayim felt offended by everything he just said. How could he insult her right in front of her face? How can he not hear himself? One moment, he would all he loving and caring but once he is under the influence of alcohol, he can really be hurtful and condescending. This was not like him before when she started dating him. She was about to say her rebut but she was not able to utter a word because her tears were choking her. She was deeply hurt by what Ryan said. He would always say something like this to her without even realizing that it hurts her. Trying hard not to bawl, she had tried to cover her mouth to reduce the sound she could make. Ryan may have heard her so he came close to her and placed his beer on her desk as his hands cupped her cheeks.
"I am sorry honey but the truth hurts. Why will I sugar-coat you with a lie if I can be real for you? Right? Dry your tears. Nobody wants a pretty face that makes stupid decisions," he said nonchalantly as Mayim continued to sob. Then he placed a kiss on her cheeks, got his beer back into his hand, and sat back down on the couch.
Nobody wants a pretty face that makes stupid decisions, this echoed in her head as it hit her again like a bat being swung at her.
Wiping the tears that were forming on her lids as she sobs lightly, "You are right. And yes, I don't deserve this. I deserve more and this is not what I am worthy of."
"Come here," Jenna says as she pulled her into a hug. Jenna nudged Chad to join them.
"Alright, what the hell," he dramatically says as he joins the two of them in a friendly hug.
"I am here for you Mayim. And so is Chad. I don't know when and how you'll break it to him but you should know that we are here for you. It is hard, yes, but you don't need to just deal with this alone, we're here. And oh my God, do I sound like a broken record," she says as they all chuckled. After breaking from the hug they were all wiping their eyes that they didn't notice Chanel coming.
"What's with all the tears?" she asked as she stood near them.
"Nothing! Our menses just synced up. Yes, including Chad," Mayim said earning another laugh from them.
She feels 10 pounds lighter now that she has told them this and hearing them tell her all of this just made her more certain of what she needs to do. Love is blind they say but that's why we wear glasses. Period. It is love anymore when only one person is giving in the relationship. It is more of like, I don't want to waste all these years to start over again with a different person. Even a sentence even needs a period to stop, why not this toxic relationship she has?
Jim
"HOLD ON!" Kaley replied in shock in between Jim's story bringing both her hands to cover her gapped mouth.
"So I am right?! You are related to the painting. You are Sheldon fucking Cooper!" she exclaimed.
He nodded in silence as he took a sip at his cup of coffee. Kaley and Jim are now situated in a coffee shop near the museum which they are also headed to. They left early for work to talk about what happened to him yesterday. Kaley was all ears as Jim started his narrative, He also kindly explained what were the procedures when he went to crossover and what it felt like for him.
"I know, it is quite a shocker to me too. Who would've thought? I have been walking on this planet for as long as 37 years and yet I only knew this. That there is a lady out there that belongs to me," shaking his head in disbelief.
"Unbelievable," she sighed as they went quiet trying to process what she just heard from him. "So what is your next step?"
"I honestly don't know where to go from here. The world is small people say, but is it? If it's small, why the bloody hell do I need to board a plane to go to Paris if it is indeed small?" he says with a hint of frustration.
"I don't know what happened to that noggin' of yours but you know that that's figurative language right?" Kaley scoffs at him.
"I know..." he released a sigh. "But I also asked that question to myself. Where will I go from here? Do I look for her? If yes, how? I've only seen her once. In that café. I don't know where to look for her. I don't even know her name," he expressed with exasperation.
"Well, her name is Amy," Kaley said while grinning earning an eye roll from Jim.
"Very helpful Kaley, thanks a lot," he scoffs putting both his thumbs up.
"Come on, relax. The medium said that your paths will cross at some point, that's kind of assuring right?" she said in hopes of lifting Jim's mood. Ever since this morning, he seems to be bothered and deep in thought.
"Yes, you're right."
"We should get going now to the museum, don't you think?" Kaley asked as she stood up from her seat grabbing his things as Jim also stood up after finishing his coffee.
As they were exiting the premises they saw a group of people, 3 ladies and a man walking in front of them heading to the exit of the café. His eyes locked their gaze on one of the women who was there opening the glass door of the café. It is her. Amy. It is only her side view that he could see but based on what he saw from the crossover, he is not mistaken. It is her. It's got to be her.
"Jim!" Kaley called knocking him again to his senses.
He shook his head as he met Kaley's stare. "W-what?"
"Come on, why did you suddenly stop walking? Did you see a ghost? Your third eye is open from the crossover right? Please don't tell me what the fuck you just saw," she says in one breath while walking slowly behind him squinting one of her eyes.
"I saw her. She's here."
"Who?!"
"Amy. Amy is here," Jim said smiling.
"Where?" Kaley then excitedly steps in front of his back while looking around trying to look for her. "You're bluffing!" she said as he slaps his back.
"She was just right there!" Jim points at the door.
"We should hurry and look for her. Quick!" Kaley excitedly says as they both went out of the café at a brisk pace.
Mayim
They were all laughing and giggling as they went together inside the museum. Just like the old times but just the addition of Chanel. They took their time to savor each piece of art that was displayed in each gallery. There were paintings, sculptures, drawings, photographs, clothes, and even love letters that date back to the 1800s. Most of the art pieces here were made by anonymous people because of the lack of backup copies of the history of some of the object entails.
As they were very much engrossed by what they are seeing, Chad and Chanel had separated from the group so it was then Jenna and Mayim who were left to discuss the things they were seeing. They took some photos, and read the background of some of them. Some were banal but most are extremely fascinating. They were walking through the galleries when all of a sudden Chad called their attention.
"Oh my God! Mayim you need to come over here right now!" Chad exclaims drawing people's attention.
She mouthed him 'What now?!' getting pissed by Chad's need to draw other people's attention with his overreaction. Chad just continues to gesture his hand for Mayim to come near to the part of the museum he was at. Jenna and Mayim just stared at each other and Jenna shrugged her shoulder. Mayim shook her head as she went closer to where Chad and Chanel were standing.
"Why do you-"
"Shhh," he says as he placed a finger in front of her face. Then he pointed to the portrait that was in front of them. "She looks exactly like you!" he claimed excitingly. Mayim looked up and saw the portrait. It is indeed her. It looks exactly like her.
"What in the fresh hell is this?" Jenna spoke in awe.
Jim
They went inside the museum together looking around while looking for his Amy. Looking around, they could see most art pieces were restored by them through the course of the past weeks. There was this sense of pride in them that people are actually coming in and out of the art exhibits and were being awed by what they see. Of course, they were not the artist but they were part of the reason why the art pieces are worthy of a social media post right?
Kaley was pointing to the pieces she have worked on and the ones Jim has. His focus was not on Kaley but to look for her. Amy.
While passing through the exhibit, they heard someone call out a name out loud which made Kaley's eyebrow frown. The museum was usually quiet and the only noise you'd hear will be toned-down conversations and the sound of heels on the cement floor. It was bizarre for someone to yell in this exhibit but people react differently so this was maybe thrilling for that person. Still, his mind was occupied, Kaley was slightly tugging him to where the voice was.
"Where are you pulling me to?"
"I want to see what the fuss is all about, "Kaley says while not looking at him but continuing to tug him toward the direction of the noise.
"You should copy that pose too! Like this! I think you'd become viral!" they heard the same man exclaim in a distance earning soft giggles and chuckles in that area.
"Sounds like they are just taking photos, Kaley. We don't need to go near them, you are just so nosy," he says in exasperation. Kaley just rolled her eyes at him they continued to go near them. He can now see the art piece where the people are situated. A group of people was standing in front of "The Epitome of Heaven".
"Ooh, it's Amy's portrait!" Kaley loudly whispered. Then the next thing he saw shocked him. His eyes were just glued to the face in front of him.
Staring back at him was his Amy.
