I fear my eyes are playing tricks on me. How could this be? I have always thought of myself as reasonable. So how is it that I just seen what I just saw. Now not even my thought make sense. Maybe I just need to replay that day in my head. Let's see where might I begin?
I got up like any other day. I got ready for work, nothing new always the same. It was when I was on my way to work, that is when I say her. She was standing there at the edge of the bridge with a smile on her face. I'm not sure why I stopped but I thought someone needed to help her. So I tired, "Are you okay?" I yelled as I got out of my car. She looked back at me an laughed. "I assure you I am more than okay." She doesn't seem like she is going to take her whole life, But then why is she standing at the edge of a bridge over a 100 or more foot drop over waters dark and deep. "Okay, do you mind coming down from there and talking to me?" she continues to laugh. "Why are you afraid? I can hear the fear in your voice?" she is now turned around looking at me. I'm not sure what to tell her. "Well I'm afraid you're going to kill yourself. That you're going to jump off the bridge." she giggled and came down for the edge. "Why do you think jumping off leads to death? Did someone tell you that?" I think she might be crazy now. It's just fact not much to think about. "That's just what happens when you jump off a bridge this high." She look back at the edge and starts walking back to it.. Some how i lost her attention. "I use to think that once to. Are you sick of your life?" How could she be asking me that? I'm not the one standing at the edge of a bridge. "No I'm not i like my life just fine. Are you sick of your life?" She looks at me. "I didn't think i was. until one day I seen a girl standing at the edge of the bridge. I stopped to try and help her, i wasn't sure why but i did. When i told her life was worth live she laughed and said life on land is so ordinary. That she longed for the sea. A city down deep beneath where only the good can be. I didn't believe her and she said mother nature either embraces you or rejects you. All that passed away after jumping didn't pass the test. So there bodies showed up, unlike the rest. So she jumped and i was shocked. I looked down and there she was swimming she waved at me. Disappearing into the water. I couldn't shake that day, until yesterday when i got a letter with a seashell in the mail from the girl. Inviting me to try. There is a place of peace deep beneath. I never seen how unhappy i was until her. I wasn't really living just being a slave to money. but there is no money deep beneath. I just have to pass the test. Am i good or am i bad?" Now I know she is crazy. She runs up to me and hugs me. Maybe she is coming to her senses. She lets me go and run to the edge and jumps. I run after her and there she is in the water. She is swimming and yelling at me. "I passed!" She disappears into the water.
A year later and I had often thought of that crazy day and all the things she had said. Every day for me being exactly the same. Then today i got a letter in the mail with a sea shell. The letter is from the girl. She said to try my luck, to stand at the edge and look in to the dark sea. To have faith but do not jump. Not until a good soul shows up. Tell the good soul of this wonderland and the gates will open and I will have a better life. This is crazy. But here i am stand at the edge. Looking back at a very nice man. Time to jump wish me luck.
Leave your filter behind. Be as messy minded as you want here. Open your mind to new idea and thoughts or just escape in the fantasy of it all.

Series Wednesday: Timetopia page 6
We are
not far from the Questions hall, but before we can go in Rev prepares me with
the fake hair and nose. Looking at my drawing, I see the tracking room is the
third restricted room. The Questions hall is very different from the library
and the wellness centers. There are 30 wellness checkers, 20 mangers, 15-20 Questions
hall workers and that’s not even counting the visitors. I am afraid we might
not be able to even get in the room with that many people there. “We are going to
get your mom out don’t worry.” Rev says as she puts her hand on my shoulder.
“Thanks.” I tell her and we start to walk up to the Questions hall. “Hello,
welcome to the Questions hall. To your left is the room of answers and to our
right is the ideas room”, says one of the workers as we walk in. I take a deep
breath as I follow Rev. “So where is the tracking room at?” I grab my drawing
out of my bag. It seems to be down the left hallway, the forth room on the
right, next to the control room. I hand the drawing to Rev and point it out.
Rev smiles at me. “Let me do a pass by and see what we are working with.” Rev walks toward the room, I start to walk to
the answers room. That’s where I see a worker I know. She’s a few years older
than me, we all thought she would get erased because she was always so openly
defiant. I guess they just put her good Questioning skills to use. I see all
the kids writing their question on a piece of paper to take to the Question
master. “Do you have a question I can help you with?” I hear from behind me and
I take a deep breath, I wish Rev was next to me. I turn around and it’s Alexis,
the girl I knew from my school. “No thank you. I am just looking around.” She
looks me deep in the eyes. “Ava is that you?” How did she know? Oh no I’m in
trouble now. “How? Did?” I can’t even get the words out. She laughs. “Ava it’s okay, take a
deep breath. Whatever is going on I won’t say anything.” I take a breath of
relief. “Thank you” is all I can muster
up. “May I ask? Why do you look so different? What is going on?” says Alexis. What do I say?
Lying is never a good thing. “I have no idea. They took my mom and someone is
keeping her here. I’m not sure why or where. I need to use the tracking
system.” She looks at me for a second. That’s when out of the corner of my eye
I see Rev walking back up. “We need a key card to get into the room and that’s
if we can get past the guards.” Rev says before she notices Alexis in eye
range. “They have your mom in a Questioning room. That’s where they keep the
trouble makers. I have a key card to the tracking room. I’ll help you.” I’m not
sure why she is helping us. I want to ask but she motions for us to follow her.
Rev grabs me by the hand and we go.
We are
almost to the door making it through the crowd, when a wellness checker stops
us as we walk right up to the door. “What is going on here?” I hide behind Rev.
Alexis didn’t seem to hesitate. She says “I need to use the tracker.” to the
wellness checker, but he didn’t seem to like her answer. “Please sir, it’s my
little sister she hasn’t come home in a day. My mom is very worried.” Rev
sounds so sweet I just look at her. How is this the same girl I have been
traveling with? The wellness checker seems to like Rev because he smiles at her
and runs his hand down her cheek. “Well we wouldn’t want your mom to worry now
would we.” He moves out of the way. Alexis opens the door and we walk in. “EWWWW.
Good to see men are still pigs, at least that is still the same.” She is doing
a weird motion, she is wiping her arms off. Alexis walks up to the screens and
turns them on. The brightness from the screens light up the dark room with no
windows. “Okay I just need your mom’s bar-code.” I nod my head. “It’s 0456x3ub82.”
She pushes the buttons on the screen. “I hate how you say bar-code so casually.
Like oh no big deal that you’re all being tracked.” Rev says. Alexis looks at her confused. “It
says she is in room 18. That’s not too far from here, it’s just down the hall
way.” I look at the screen in disbelief that my mom is so close. “What are
these other lights?” I ask seeing a bunch of lights around the room. “They are
other people. It looks like two wellness checkers, a manager and a head
question master. What did your mom do? It’s a really big deal for a manager to
be there.” I take a deep breath. Rev pulls my hand for me to step behind her,
so I do. She steps in front of me, pulls out a knife, puts it to Alexis’
throat, and pushes her against the wall. “Why are you helping us? Why all the
questions? Did Richard tell you we were coming?” Alexis doesn’t seem afraid at all. She
motions for Rev to move the knife so she can talk. “You have no idea what I
have seen here. They don’t just erase people, they make them disappear where
you can still remember them. If someone asks the wrong questions about the Five
or how their technology works, we have to inform the head question master. It’s
not okay what they do. You have no idea. I beg you to kill me, please I can’t
keep doing this, it’s not the adults that kill my soul. It’s the kids. They do
not care what age you are. No one told me you were coming I swear. I don’t know
any Richard’s either.” Rev steps back as
Alexis falls to the floor. I had no idea anything like this happened in Timetopia.
She is crying on the floor she seems so broken. I can’t help but hug her. “How
do we get the guard to move so we can get your mom?” Rev is looking at the
screen. “A fire is the only thing they are told to leave their post for.” I
look at Rev and she nods. I guess we are starting a fire.

Series Wednesday: Timetopia Page 5
“SO…….
I’m not trying to be rude, but do you have a plan? Or are we just going to sit
here for a few more hours?” Rev is right, I need something. Some kind of plan. Then
it hits me. “We need to find out how the building looks on the inside to get my
mom out.” Rev throws her hands up. “Wow, it’s that easy? We can just walk into
city hall and get the blue prints. Right?” I sit there for a bit. “What is city
hall? Is that in the Bronx? And what is a blue print?” Rev sighs. “Great. You
don’t even have a city hall??? Where do you keep all you information at? The
great hall of knowledge or something ridiculous like that?” I think she is
mocking Timetopia. “Well we do have a library that normally where we keep
information at.” Rev just sits there looking at me. “You have a library? They
rename everything but they leave library. Okay.” Rename?? What?? There she goes
again making me question things. Whenever I try to bring it up she always blows
me off. I need to stay focused. “Yes the library holds all the records of Timetopia
from the beginning. So if we need the Questions hall layout then we need to go
to the library.” Seems simple enough to me.
Rev sits there, she is thinking it over. “We can go to any library there
isn’t a special one we need to go to?” I
don’t understand what she is asking, all the libraries hold the same information.
“We can go to any library. The one close to the Questions hall would probably
be the smartest.” There Rev goes again rolling her eyes at me. “Okay let’s do
it. I mean I can’t let you go on your own. Right?” I’m not sure why she is
asking me that. “Right.” I respond. She just looks at me and starts to head to
the library near the Question hall.
“Ava
wake up we are here. I swear you are always sleeping.” Rev is shaking me. We
are parked in front of the library. The large stone walls that hold all of our
history. We start to walk up to the library and Rev stops walking. “You have
got to be kidding me! No way.” she grabs a rock and throws it at the library. I
grab her arm and stop her from throwing another rock. “What is wrong with
you!?” I ask her. “Do you not see that the sign?” I look up at the words carved
into the library, the same words that are carved into all of them. “Yes I do. It says what they all say,
Knowledge is only what the higher power allows it to be.” She is now making
growling sounds. “I can read. But do you know what that means??? Do you know
what it really means?” I have never thought about what it meant, I just have
always seen it since I was born. “No I guess I don’t.” she starts to head
inside. “It means censorship.” Rev seems
to really dislike the sign. We walk into the library. “So where do we get the
blue prints?” I look back at Rev. “Blue prints?” she sighs at my question.
“Where is the buildings map?” I think I know what she is trying to say but with
Rev it’s always a guessing game. “I have to draw it.” I walk over to the how
our world began section. “What do you mean you have to draw it?” I can hear the
concern in Rev’s voice. “Trust me this is nothing I haven’t done a million
times. Me and my dad used to do this every weekend.” Rev shrugs, “I guess I
will just look around then.” I look back at her and a piece of her red hair is
sticking out of her fake hair. “Fix your hair. If they see it they will know
there is something different about you.” She fixes her hair and laughs as she
walks away. Now it time to get to work I watch the video and calculate how
their sizes would be scaled down into a drawing. I feel like only minutes have
gone by. “Dang, that is good..” I hear from behind me. I look to see my whole drawing
from different angles. “Yeah, like I said me and my dad did this all the time.
He taught me how to draw to exact scale measurements.” She is looking at my
drawing very closely. “This is good we can use this. Your dad was smart for
this one.” I look at her. “I’m sure all kids can do this.” she shakes her head.
“Most humans can’t do this. With that aside, this place is huge how are we
going to find which room she is in?” I
don’t know if huge is the word I would have picked. It has about 30 side
restricted rooms and 5 main rooms open to the public. I look at her for a bit.
“Well since we are going to be in the Questions hall we can just use the
tracking system.” I stand up and grab my stuff. “I’m sorry the what??? You
can’t say the tracking system and walk away.” I stood there looking at her.
“The tracking system implanted in us as children. It’s why we have the barcodes
on the back of our necks.” I stand there waiting for her to move. “You don’t
see anything wrong with that? They mark you like cattle.” I don’t understand why she is acting this
way. “You’re joking right, the Five did this so kids can’t be lost or taken.
There is no point of kidnapping children the wellness checkers will just find
you and erase you.” She tilts her head
at me. “Well you got me there. That is smart for kids. But what about when you
become an adult? They can track your every move.” I’m not sure why but I have
never looked at it that way. I have always felt safe knowing that I could
always be found if something bad was to ever happen. “It makes crime pointless,
they can find you no matter what. It helps people not to do things they would
have to run from because they can’t.”
Rev stands there looking at me. “Jaw dropped. That’s how I feel right
now with you. Jaw dropped. Let’s just go get your mom and get back on the road." We start to walk out of the library to
the Questions hall. Don’t worry mom I’m coming for you.
Happy hump day!

Random Short story: The man outside my window
Everyday around lunch time i see a man sitting outside my office window. I just assumed the man was homeless. i never once thought much of it. Until one day i saw him sitting there with tear in his eyes. i felt horribly bad for him. So i went to buy him a sandwich i thought it might brighten his day. As i tried to hand it to him he looked up at me. "I'm not homeless." he explains. Now i feel even worse. "oh i'm sorry sir. your just always sitting out here." the man laughs at me and that was the first time i really looked at his clothing. He had on a suit, not the makings of a homeless man. "Well sir might i ask why you are out here almost every day?" the man once again laughed at me. "You see the love of my life was kill here about 27 years ago." The man is visiting his wife's grave sight. "oh i see, do you mind if i asked what happen?" he motioned toward the floor next to him for me to sit. "No i don't mind at all. You see before there were these business buildings here, there was a beautiful park and every sunday me and my wife would come here for a picnic. It was something we had start back when we were high school sweet hearts. i asked her to marry me here. And here is where she told me we were going to be parents after many many years of trying. yes this park is where it all happened." Wow i now feel like i am sitting on a piece of some ones history. A whole love story happen here. "Sir that sound like a beautiful memory." the tear once again filled his eyes. "Yes it was. Until the day muggers decide to take her life. leaving me to be a single father. which why i never come here." i didn't understand the man. i had seen him every day for the past month. "but sir your always here." i explain. "Your right i am lately. it because i am trying to face my cowardliness." I am lost and way to deep in this mans story to turn back now. "How are you a coward sir?" his head sinks low. "well you see i could not be a father without her. so i gave up my daughter for adoption. and i never looked back." Now i understand a bit but not why he has come back. "Okay sir, but why now?" he looks at me. "i found a love letter from my wife in her old things. A letter i wish i would of found years ago. A letter talking about how if i was to be with out her she would hope our children would be my world. So i looked up my daughter and found she works in that building. Right next to where her mother was killed. She has no idea that her history started here." i felt bad for the man. i couldn't help but hug him. We both got up and he left. Weeks went by and the man never came back. The story some how stuck with me. So one day i told my parents the story of the man. Their reaction i didn't expect. My mother started to cry. That when my dad told me, I was adopted. That the man out side the window was my real dad.

Series Wednesday: Timetopia Page 4
Rev
hides her teeth. “I’m sorry, our mother is waiting for us at home.” She says it
so innocently, I was shocked by her tone. He smiled at us and I take a breath of relief.
“I don’t think so. Like I said you’re going to need to come with me.” Rev
smiles as he steps in front of us. “Tell Richard he can shove it.” I look over at her. Who is Richard? Then two wellness
checkers grabbed us from behind. I didn’t even see them come up. Rev still has
a huge smile on her face. She leans forward and throws her head into the
wellness checker’s face. He lets her go and she turns and laughs. “Come on boys
I haven’t had a good fight in a long time.”
Rev slides her leg back and squats just slightly as she reaches in her back
pack and pulls out two knives- one for each hand. The wellness checkers pull
out a long black stick with a metal tip. He laughs as he turns the tip on and
sparks start to come out of it. Rev laughs loudly. “Oh, look who has a taser.”
Everyone stops and looks at her, so lost by the word taser. She looks at me,
winks, and looks down. My dad used to do the same thing to signal me to duck,
when he would play around with my mom and throw veggies at her. So I ducked the
same way, and as I do Rev throws a knife right in the chest of the guy holding
me. He let me go and went down. I didn’t want to look back, but the other
wellness checkers grabbed Rev again. She is shifting her body back and forth,
struggling with one of them. He pulls her long black hair off and there it is,
her red hair. Bright red like a fire. I have never seen hair that bright before.
The two wellness checkers stop all of a sudden and I look down to see a red
puddle underneath me. Now I’m definitely not going to look back. Rev is
swinging her knife back and forth at the wellness checkers. They have their
sticks out, but I notice that no one is paying attention to me. That’s when I
remember the control room. If all three wellness checkers are out, the room is
empty. So I run to the back and the door is open. Okay I can do this, I tell
myself. If I set off the alarm, the metal mesh will drop in front of the doors
until the mangers come. I start to put in the codes to give me just enough time
to grab Rev. I try to enter the codes as fast as I can. I hear the first alarm
go off which means I have 2 mins to get to Rev and get out. I start running to
her when I see one of the wellness checker sticking her with the metal part of
the stick. She starts screaming and I see the wellness checker with the knife
sticking out of his head, his stick on the floor. So I run and grab it. I see
the knob to turn it on and I rush to the guy hitting Rev and I smack him in the
back of the head and shock him. As he goes down I grab Rev and we run. We
barely make it out before the metal hits the floor. We run straight to the van.
Rev is
speeding away and the wellness center fades into the distance. I can finally
catch my breath. I lay my head back on the seat and that’s when my mind starts
racing. “How did my dad know your name?? Do you know him??” I ask Rev as calmly
as I can. “Know him? How well does anyone really know somebody?” That’s her
response. I’m not sure why but it makes me so mad. I grab the wheel and swerve
the van. She brakes and we are now pulled over. I’m not sure why I did that.
Now we are just sitting here. “We are never going to make it to your
grandmothers this way.” Rev says as she starts to pull back onto the road. “I
just want to know something, anything.” I feel so frustrated but oddly not
alone. “Yes I know your dad, but not well. I have met him a few times here and
there.” I feel better that she has at least told me something. I think about all
the questions I have for her. Wait we are still on the way to my grandmother’s
house. I can’t go there knowing that my mom is at the Questions hall. “We need
to get my mom from the Questions hall.” Rev looks over at me just as confused
as I do whenever she talks about things I’ve never heard of. “The Questions hall??” I’m not sure what she is asking. “Yes the Questions
hall, where they are holding my mom.” Rev sighs. “I get that, what is the Questions
hall? Is it like jail?” How does she not know what the questions hall is? “You
said you’re from the Bronx. What part of Timetopia is that?” She laughs. “It’s not, so I have no idea what
the Questions hall is.” I sit there dumbfounded, Timetopia is all the land so
how is she not from it? “So are you going to tell me what the Questions hall
is? Or just sit there and look out the window?” Rev says. There are so many
things I want to ask, but first things first. “The Questions hall is where
people go to ask the hard questions. It holds all the answers and where the Question
masters do the interrogating, but they will do anything to get the answers they
seek.” Rev’s face goes blank. “So they’re going to torture your mom...” She
says in a low voice. “What is torture?” I need to know what this word means.
“It is where they hurt her until she tells them what they want to know.” I stop
breathing. I never really thought about how they got their answers before. “We
need to save her!” Rev pulls over. “We can’t.” She puts her head down as she
says this. “Fine. I’ll go alone.” I get out of the van. Rev gets out behind me.
“Stop walking. I’ll help you. But you better have one hell of a plan.” I turn
back at her and smile. I don’t have a plan, but she doesn’t need to know that.
Hump day got me
Sorry for the late post. This morning wasn't a good morning. How ever i got some really good news this afternoon. So my spirits are lifted just in time for series Wednesday at that. I'm not going to lie this is normally my favorite day of the week because i get to post for you. since i love writing my series Wednesday and all of you seem to love it to. i might be starting a new project for you. but ill keep that under hush tones for now. As always thanks for reading and i hope to see you tune in tonight for Timetopia.

Poem: See skin deep
Fooled by her outer skin.
one look and they determined she was pretty.
Nothing more then a face and body.
But she always knew,
The word pretty came with an ugly glum.
Her weight, height and even shape was doomed.
She unintentionally let them put her in a box.
One with very many locks.
just one look and people will listen to her speak.
how ever she knew they would never really hear her words.
This simple fact sadden her.
She knew she had to do something.
This just wasn't good enough for her.
She wanted substance not luck.
Not the fear that some day her looks would fade away.
So she wrote and hid her face
so no one would know
People from her home town loved her work,
And one day found out it came from her.
They all looked shocked and were a little rocked.
but the quickly learned.
Skin deep is nothing to judge by.

Series Wednesday: Timetopia Page 3
Days on
the road, just Rev and I. I’m not sure why she is so different, every day she
talks about things I have never heard of. I miss my mom. I wish there was some
way to talk to her or my dad. “I need to know if my parents are okay!” I demand.
“Well without cellphones I’m not sure how to do that.” I look at Rev, there she
goes again, what is a Cellphone and how can it help me and my parents? “Well
since I have no idea what a cell phone is. Take me to a well ness center! I can
check on them there.” Rev stops the van and looks at me. “You’re joking right?
We are being chased by wellness checkers and you want to walk into a wellness
center!?” I can understand what she is asking but don’t get why she is scared.
Wellness centers and checkers are for the people to ensure our happiness and so
we can see our families who are far away. “What you’re scared of a little wellness
center?” I say it in the same tones she has been using with me whenever we talk
about the Five. She rolls her eyes. “I’m from the Bronx sweet heart nothing
scares me.” I smile at her, I think I just got her to do what I want. This was
strange but it works.
After
two days of driving we reach a wellness center. She pulls into the lot. “So
girl genius what’s the plan?” the way she says it is like she doesn’t believe
in me. “You see the pool center? We go
in there and shower and clean up and then we go into the wellness center and
use the wellness watcher’s screens to check on my parents.” She looks over at
the pool centers. “Okay I’m in.” We head over to shower and change. Rev looks
at me and hands me hair. “What is this??” I am a bit grossed out. “It’s a wig,
put it on so the cameras won’t recognize you.” What is a wig?? How do I put
this thing on? I stand there holding this hair. Someone else’s hair at that.
Rev sighs and pushes me onto the sink. She puts this wig on me. I no longer
have thick curls I now have straight brown hair. It’s so strange to see, she’s
pulling a nose out of her bag. “Who did you steal that from?” I squeal I am so
terrified by her right now. “Calm down I made it. It’s just a fake nose. Feel
it… I didn’t hurt anyone I promise.” She has her hand out with the fake nose as
she calls it. I touch it and it feels
like rubber. How did she make a rubber nose? This is so strange to me. She
starts to put it on my face, I no longer look like me at all. “It’s now or
never.” Rev says. “What? Why now or never? Why can’t it be now or 5 minutes
from now?” she rolls her eyes again, she does this a lot and points to the
door. We walk right into the wellness
center and I go to the wellness screens “oh it’s a computer.” Rev says behind
me about the screen. I don’t have time to ask her what she means. I didn’t tell
Rev this but what I’m about to do can get us both erased if I’m not fast, but I
need to check on my parents. I start to type in the codes. The ones that allow
me to see what only wellness checkers can see. I start to bypass the locks they
have for us none checkers. Rev is watching me. “Holy shit! You’re a hacker!”
she whispers into my ear. “I’m not sure what that is but watch the building. If
anyone sees me we are done for.” Rev laughs. I get into my house’s camera and I
see my dad. I look at each room and my mom isn’t there. I turn on the speakers
in my house that the Five use to talk to us. I speak into the wellness screens
the way you would if you were talking to a family member on the other side of Timetopia.
“DAD!” he looks up at the camera. “Ava! Are you okay?” my dad’s eyes are
tearing up. “Yes I am fine. Dad where is mom?” my dad is looking around. “Ava
what have you done? They can listen this way.”
I don’t mean to laugh. “No they can’t I made sure of it. I blocked them
out but just for a few minutes. I don’t have long dad. Where is mom?” my dad
stands there, he takes a deep breath. “They took her to the center of Timetopia.
They took her to the questions hall.” I just sit there because even I know how
bad this is. “I’ll get her out dad, don’t worry I have a friend.” I am running
out of time fast. “Ava listen to me. I love you but you are not who you think
you are. Tell Rev to take care of you. There is a lot you are about to learn
and I’m sorry we had to lie to you for so long.” The feed cuts off. “NO.” I
start to cry. What was my dad talking about? Rev puts her hand on my shoulder.
“Come on.” I get up, my dad knows who Rev is. I’m so lost again. As we are walking
to the door a wellness checkers walks up to us. “Hello young ladies I am going
to need you to come with me on this beautiful day.”

Poem: wanting success
The struggle to succeed.
My life aspirations are high indeed.
Wanting nothing more the personal success
But for my dreams there is no class.
No one way to follow.
Just a long hard road.
A lot of disappointment and back yard deals.
I guess i'll learn as i go.
Never to sure if i am doing it right.
but i will not give up my dream with out one hell of a fight.
however i fear being in the public eye.
but sadly in this day and age its the only way for your career to take flight.
So you open the door for world wide scrutiny.
All in the name of your dream.
Is it winning or its is losing?
I guess like most things in life you will never really know.
