I slam my hand down on my alarm clock. 7:32.82Please respect copyright.PENANASPj8bjNU7X
Ugh, I have a test today.82Please respect copyright.PENANAhoZcQW7hiR
I throw my legs over the edge of my bed and quickly get ready for school.82Please respect copyright.PENANAHJbZcThMMQ
Mom's shoes are still by the door. She should've left by now. Maybe she isn't feeling well.82Please respect copyright.PENANAlUb1Hj2cPQ
The walk to school is weirdly similar to yesterday's.82Please respect copyright.PENANAbJL9ADFx85
Mr. J is watering his garden and glares at me again as I pass by.82Please respect copyright.PENANAScT1UOsNjC
Auntie Kate's dog, Chewbacca is running loose again while she stumbles after him.82Please respect copyright.PENANASfhKcl2V8y
A bird flies overhead and poops right in front of me.82Please respect copyright.PENANAsJrHeiRQL9
Such specific things happening again ... it has to be a coincidence. Right?82Please respect copyright.PENANAgDeEKik4yi
When I get to school, I head to my first hour B day class. I notice kids from the A day class filing in which confuses me.82Please respect copyright.PENANACilNUMuMtJ
When the bell rings, Mrs. Sandler tells me I'm in the wrong class.82Please respect copyright.PENANAiUvbe31u9Z
What? But that doesn't make sense. Yesterday was an A day. I rush to my A day class, still trying to figure out what happened. Maybe what I thought was yesterday was just a dream.82Please respect copyright.PENANAWZMIEhFPqL
I sit down in my seat after being marked absence and notice that the date on the board is the same as yesterday.82Please respect copyright.PENANAowljK5dqn2
5/11/24.82Please respect copyright.PENANA8R4pX2DpjX
I raise my hand to correct it, but the teacher says that it's the right date. I try to shake it off but as the day progresses, I notice that everything else is the same as 'yesterday'. People have the same conversations with me, do the same actions, and the test that I was supposed to take doesn't happen.82Please respect copyright.PENANAcozihstgvL
It's okay. It's all just one big prank because maybe I forgot someone's name. Once I go to sleep, I'll wake up and everything will be back to normal.82Please respect copyright.PENANAQPyqjQ94dC
The minutes tick by agonizingly slow. I look at the clock. 11:48---82Please respect copyright.PENANAFHTKLMd3jB
Suddenly it's 7:32 and my alarm is beeping again. Did I fall asleep that quickly?82Please respect copyright.PENANA0OIF8ZGNDH
A few more todays pass until I realize that the day is repeating. Over and over and over. A time loop.82Please respect copyright.PENANAqEVigzlKCZ
At one point I even try to research ways to stop it, but no matter what, nothing works. I give up after a few months of that.82Please respect copyright.PENANADD5tVU87tl
Seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months pass. I try to vary them the best I can with my own actions, but at some point, everything starts blurring into one big mess.82Please respect copyright.PENANAgs5KXdSjjk
On the 365th day I decide to go somewhere I've been too scared to go.82Please respect copyright.PENANA1oSqlun7ii
The night before the time loop started I went to an event with my friends. Afterwards they requested that I come with them to a park to hang out and meet up with a different group. I refused. Said I was too scared that I'd get in trouble and that the other people would cause trouble.82Please respect copyright.PENANAhQWk2mDchp
I should've ended up at that park at around the same time I transfer to the next today. 11:48 PM. Well that surely can't be a coincidence.82Please respect copyright.PENANA1epHwKxRuv
Up until today I've been to every part of the city. I'm not going trying to get my hopes up, but something about this place ...82Please respect copyright.PENANAuHijJ5EyyR
I walk over to a sculpture that's lit by a dim warm light. I slide down to the concrete and check the time on my phone. 11:46.82Please respect copyright.PENANAcH6hlEqYLa
I rest my head back and look up at the light post where moths and flies buzz energetically around the bulb. Crickets chirp softly in the near distance and there's a soft pair of footsteps. I'm surprised anyone is out this late.82Please respect copyright.PENANAGN5AzhCsP7
I look down at my phone again. 11:47.82Please respect copyright.PENANAjPbl9P4rGt
I look back up as the footsteps grow louder. A boy around my age approaches before sitting down across from me, smirking in a silly manner.82Please respect copyright.PENANAiSHTPiHowj
"Hey," he says.82Please respect copyright.PENANArtnEGRTB8A
I wave softly. In a minute he'll be gone. This is the furthest I'll ever get to talk to him.82Please respect copyright.PENANAXsEKsrVtnD
"I haven't seen you here before." He stuffs his hands in his pockets, his eyes fixed on me.82Please respect copyright.PENANA6bOHzKYka5
"Uh, yeah, it's my first time coming here," I say, scratching the back of my neck. This minute is going by agonizingly slow, but when I wake up it'll feel like it went by in a flash.82Please respect copyright.PENANA9JNYulBqbr
"I know. I've been watching you every today when I realized you were stuck in the time loop but with your own will. I followed you here."82Please respect copyright.PENANA8EuSul9j1P
My heart speeds up. What? He's stuck too? Could this be the way out? Us meeting? Will we finally be free of this misery?82Please respect copyright.PENANACbueamjHOW
"Do ... do you think this is how we get out of it? Why didn't you approach me sooner?" I ask, scooching closer. This is what feels like the first real conversation I've had in forever. My heart is beating as fast as the speed of light.82Please respect copyright.PENANANTEREqA0Lx
"That's what I assumed since you're the only other concious person I've met." He smiles as I sit next to him.82Please respect copyright.PENANAalZePPanFK
"I can't believe we're going to get out of he---"82Please respect copyright.PENANAqJgnNQaaP5
