I don’t know if e’erbody remembers, but back in Miami last summer, I met Ailana Geven. She’s real sweet, an’ I been followin’ her posts ever since.
So, later t’day, Sasha an’ Clay, and Geoni an’ Josh, are gettin’ married. It’s a double weddin’ in Savannah.
Now, I met Sasha and Geoni, too, an’ thought I’d like to say congratulations, but I figured they’d be busy, so I called Ailana.
She answered on the second ring. “Hello?”
“Hey, Ailana! I don’t know if you ‘member me from back in Miami, but I been followin’ your IG posts ever since.”
She laughed a little. “Of course, I remember you, Emma! And I read all the Time Travelers stories. How are you?”
“I’m doing good! An’ I saw all ‘bout the double weddin’! Ain’t that somethin’?”
She said, “It really is. Sasha an’ Clay, Geoni an’ Josh—they’re all perfect together.”
I said, “Well, Merritt an’ me both wanna send ‘em congratulations.”
“Aww, that’s really sweet. We’re having a little girls’ brunch soon. I’ll tell them!”
I said thanks, then she said, “So, how’s everybody on your end?”
“Well,” I said, “honestly, we all ain’t sure what’s happenin’. Nothin’s come up for weeks, an’ we’re all wonderin’ what’s goin’ on.”
There was a pause. “Huh. That’s strange.”
“Tell me about it. We’re just sittin’ ‘round waitin’ for somethin’ to happen, but so far… nothin’.”
“That’s gotta be frustrating.”
“Yeah, after months of preparation and everything… Now, nothing for ages…”
There was a little pause, then she said, “Well, I’ll keep watching.”
“Thanks. Have a great day!”
“Will do… Bye, Emma. Thanks for calling.
I hung up an’ stared at my phone for a second. I don’t know why, but this whole thing’s got me feelin’ a little uneasy. Like somethin’ ought to be happenin’—but it ain’t.
Maybe I’m just overthinkin’ it.
Or maybe we’re all just waitin’ for somethin’ bigger than we know.
