GENRE: Sci-fi Time Travel Romance
(clean)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What if time travel
proved you were meant to be together? Sometimes the very things that bond two
people can drive a wedge between them. Tabitha and Milt have been through a lot
together, but they find themselves pulled in very different ways.
Tabitha longs for a
getaway, while Milt is busy with his responsibilities. She embarks on an
unplanned journey. With this attempt to pull herself out of the rut, how will
she handle the unknown dangers she faces and return her life to normal?

EXCERPTS:
“Wait, they gave you a memory download? How?”
“With electrodes hooked up to my head, and they had a screen
where they saw images that I was describing, or maybe they saw what I was
seeing in my mind. They only saw an
outline of Mahoney and--would you believe this: the Steinblaster! But they didn’t find out where I’m from. It’s all okay; I blocked that. You’d be proud of me.”
“Okay.” Milt was used
to her mysterious, almost prophetic dreams, but the thought of someone giving
his wife a memory download was just disturbing.
“So, how can you be sure you blocked out everything you needed to? Could there be any side effects to this
memory download? Wait, you’re related to
the girl with the elfin ears?” He held
up a hand to his head. It was too much
information coming to him at once.
Tabitha chuckled through her words. “Her ears were a body modification. Same as her skin, but she did that with
pills. It’s some anarchistic or artistic
fad. But, yes. She let me sit by her at the coffee shop,
which, by the way, is much the same as it was when you and I went to 2047. Anyway, we talked like old friends. She lives with her grandmother, who is from
New Orleans. Whose name is Louise. Her grandfather’s name is Jared. I’m telling you, it’s them! I saw a picture on their wall!” Her voice raised in excitement.
“Well, you could be right.
Really, though, about this memory download. Did they warn you of side effects? Did you consent to this?”
“Yes, Milt. I
consented so they would believe what I was saying about Mahoney. Then, my blood pressure went all haywire and
they had to stop.”
“You shouldn’t have done that. We need to take you to the doctor.”
“My appointment is next week. I’m fine.
All I had to do was think about seeing George Mahoney and, well,
childbirth. The memory’s not so old
yet.”
“Okay.” Milt
nodded. “So, what will you tell the
counselor about your little journey? You
know, I’m not telling you what to do, I just have a little concern. And you really shouldn’t go into people’s
homes in a strange time and place. By
the way, why were you in Salamanca’s home?”
She narrowed her eyes at him, then touched her hand to her
forehead. “I’ll explain that later. Hey,
I know I shouldn’t have gone, because look, I can’t even talk about it, and
it’s scratching to come out! I don’t
know though. I’m afraid I’ll say the
wrong thing, and they will think I’m stark raving mad.”
