2024-12-30 “That Was That” by Emma (born 1861)

Well, I figured I ought to make a post, since so much has happened since my last one. I was on the airplane then.

It was really nice meeting Merritt’s parents again. I was so scared and confused the first time. I remember I was just amazed by air conditioning.

Well, this time, it was better. We all talked a lot, and got to know each other. 

Merritt said it was a lot better for him since the memories from Merritt born in 2000 were in his head. After we was on the plan for Memphis, Merritt said his mom tol’ him she wudn’t surprised he was thinking about a future with me. She said she could see how he was about me that day back in July.

I half think she just said that, though. But like I said, that time before, I was so mixed up about everything!

We decided at the last minute not to tell them about Time-Traveling. It just seemed like it would muddle things up.

Now my daddy was just about crazy over the idea of me being with Merritt. He couldn’t hardly believe a fine man, an engineer with a promising future had taken a liking to me. He told me I oughta make sure to keep a man like that. I tol’ him I was planning on it.

Well, we come back to NY on a plane that leaves at night. We got back to the apartment just in time to find out we was supposed to be in a meeting with Will Robertson. Will wanted to let the rest of the big wigs at NYC SysCo know about Time-Traveling so they’d understand when Merritt and Hannah as well as Devon and Jacob got all distracted by the missions.

Now, turns out Emma from 1965 had witnessed an accident with one of the other partners that happened in1985. I got her on FaceTime and after that, everybody accepted that it was real. Plus Shay’s daddy was there and he had a lot to say what that helped them believe.

So, I’m about to go to bed, and I’m real happy how everything turned out. We got New Year’s coming up, so we’ll be able to rest up. We don’t know when we’re gonna have a mission, though.
