This choice: You Accidentally Change Reality When You're in the Bathroom • Go Back...
Chapter #3
Showering Yourself with Reality Changes?
by: Unknown
You forget about the bizarre “dream” -- for now -- when you realize that the bathroom you share with your sister is vacant. That brightens your day -- seems like Melissa has a habit of being in there right when you want to use it.
You grab your electric razor and give your face a decent shave. As you put it away, the thought crosses your mind that you kind of wish you didn’t have to do that every day. You put your hand to your chin and are a little surprised that it feels perfectly smooth, better than the razor usually manages, but you don’t think much of it.
Getting into the shower, you note your pasty white skin and feel a little bit annoyed. About halfway through the lathering-up process, you realize that your skin looks darker and more evenly toned, as if you suddenly have a tan, but you dismiss it as a trick of the bathroom lighting.
You finish the shower without further incident, getting out and toweling off, not really noticing that your skin still looks unusually tanned now that you’ve stepped into different lighting.
You wrap the towel around your waist temporarily and open the wall-mounted cabinet for your deodorant. Reaching for the stick, you knock a couple of lipsticks and bottles of nail polish onto the floor.
“Damn it,” you mutter, as you bend down to pick up Melissa’s cosmetics. “I wish she didn’t have to keep all this makeup crap in here.”
You reach for one of the bottles, and your hand grabs air.
You swivel your head around, but there’s suddenly nothing on the floor that vaguely resembles a makeup product.
You stand up to look in the cabinet, and it’s practically empty. You just saw it 30 seconds ago, and it seemed chock full of items labeled “M.A.C.,” “Cover Girl,” and so on.
You almost feel like you’re going insane. You open the cabinet under the sink, but it holds only its usual contents: cleaning products, Band-Aids, and a couple extra bottles of your el-cheapo shampoo.
Melissa, you decide, has to be the key to this sudden mystery. You open the bathroom door and exit, in only your towel.
