7:00 p.m.
Betty's POV
Robert came over to me and told me, "She's okay, Betty. Although, she acted a lot like Calvin did when dad hit him with the car."
I perked up as Annie asked Robert, "Who is she, daddy?"
Robert bent down to Annie's eye level and answered, "She's Sarah Klein. She's Calvin Klein's daughter."
I couldn't believe it. The way she acted, I could've sworn….. At that moment, Sarah came in. I smiled at her as I walked over to her.
I told her, "Thank you again for saving my life, Ms. Klein."
She smiled and responded, "Uh, it was no trouble at all, Mrs. Baines."
I hugged her and at that moment, I sensed something in her. Something strangely familiar…. I let go of her and saw her golden medallion. It looked identical to mine. In fact, I could've sworn….
Annie brought me out of my thoughts and asked, "Mommy, are you okay?"
I knelt down to my six year old daughter and responded, "I'm okay, sweetheart."
I turned to Sarah and added in my mind, 'At least...I think so.' That evening was interesting to say the least. All Robert did was talked about was Sarah's father. Sarah was laughing up a storm as she told us about her brother who sounded like a lot Calvin.
Annie yawned as I told my little one, "I think it's time for you to go to bed."
Annie whined, "Ah, mom."
Sarah intervened and told her, "You better listen to your mom, Annie. After all, she won't be around forever to help you."
As I took Annie off for bed, I couldn't help but wonder what Sarah had meant by that meant. The next morning, Annie was getting ready for school and there was a knock at the door.
Sarah said, "I'll get it for you guys." Sarah opened the door and there was Marty. Sarah gushed, "Oh, Marty. Good to see you!"
Marty asked me, "Uh, Aunt Betty. Who is this?"
I answered, "Oh, its okay Marty. This is Sarah Klein. She's Calvin Klein and Amie Kuhn's daughter."
Marty perked up and responded, "Oh."
I asked Sarah, "Sarah, would you mind if you walk the kids to the corner?"
Sarah nodded and answered, "Sure thing, Mrs. Baines." She turned to Marty and Annie and added, "Come on you two."
Annie took Sarah's right hand as Marty took Sarah's left hand. The three of them headed off. It was time for me to find out just exactly who this Sarah Klein was.
Just then, a voice asked, "Annie, come in. Annie, are you there?"
I perked up and followed the voice. It sounded like…. I got into the guest room and saw a walkie-talkie.
The voice asked, "Annie, please answer me."
'Annie? She had just left with Sarah. What in the world is going on here,' I thought.
The voice asked, "Annie, God damn it answer me! This is Doc!"
'Doc...as in...' As the realization suck in that the voice was Doctor Brown, Sarah came back in. I thought, 'Wait. I didn't leave the door unlocked. Then, that must mean... I'm alone...with my daughter...from the future!' It was the only logical explanation. Somehow, my daughter became…..a time traveler!
