CHAPTER THIRTY

Retep jumped up, in surprise. "Already? We are already in the backwards world?"

His voice cracked at the end of his question. "It's magic, dear. It'll be okay. This is new for most of us, too," Grandma Aras said, trying to calm him.

Retep was breathing very quickly. He'd never felt this way before. He suddenly missed his mother and her calming effect very much. "So what do we do now?" he managed to ask between deep breaths.

"You don't do anything. I am going to see where that door opens in the house and find Adam and Myra and explain what happened. I also need to see how much time has passed here. We might need to come up with a convincing story if Anna and I have been gone awhile."

"I'm coming with you," Anna told him.

Tim nodded. He and Anna crossed the room to the door and opened it. They stared out into a dark upstairs hallway. "We're on the second floor!" Anna exclaimed in surprise.

Tim stepped into the hallway and held out his hand. Anna took it and together they left and went in search of Adam. The first door they came to was to Tim's bedroom. He glanced inside the room. "I think we may have gotten lucky. My bed looks exactly like it did when we left. Unless no one came in the room, I don't think much time passed at all while we were gone."

He entered his room and looked at the clock on his bedside table. It said it was just after midnight. Now he knew where they'd find Adam. He just didn't know what day it was. "Come on. We're going to have to wake them up."

As they stepped back into the hallway, Anna held up her hand to stop Tim from going any farther. “Someone is in the bathroom,” she said, pointing at the door that now had light peeking around the edges.

Tim nodded, as they heard the toilet flush and the sink turn on. They stood in the dark hallway, waiting for the door to open. When it did, and a figured shuffled into the hallway, Tim was relieved that it was Adam and not Myra. Adam continued to walk back towards his bedroom, not even noticing them at the other end of the hallway. “Adam,” Tim called, quietly, to get his attention.

Adam turned and barely looked surprised to see the two of them standing in the hallway in the middle of the night. “Why are you guys awake? You have school in the morning.”

Anna and Tim looked at each other, in surprise. “We need to talk to you. Something’s happened,” Anna said.

Adam seemed to suddenly be more alert. He came towards them and only when he was closer, did he realize there was an extra door in the hallway behind them. “What’s going on? I thought you two had gone to bed early.”

“Adam, are you saying you saw us a few hours ago?”

Adam nodded. “I saw you both at dinner. Then, Tim, you went to write your paper.
