It was getting dark and Enaya and Maher spoke for too long, on her bike she starts seeing some weird things happening on the way home, like people talking to themselves, she passes the road to the upper part of town and now she is headed to the undercity when a car glitches and appears out of nowhere and crashes on the side of the road that catches on fire, Enaya quickly went to see if someone was inside of it and it was an empty car “What the fuck is going on ? How am I seeing those things, what is going on? “ Enaya tightens her helmet and continues her journey back home “ I just need to reach home” She says to herself. A figure appeared out of nowhere while she was speeding on the bike, it was like a shadow that passed her and said “ Not so fast” Enaya stopped the bike abruptly “What the hell was that ?” She tried to move forward but a guy was standing on the end of the road. It was dark and the street light was broken, “Okay, I'll just move past him “ Enaya said to herself. She starts peddling when he suddenly appears in front of her directly, she stops the bike abruptly and shouts “Watch it !” he says “ Oh dear you have been so naive, but now you know “ Enaya tried to move past him but as she moved her bike to the other lane he appeared in front of her “ Im hallucinating “ She shouted and suddenly the man was gone. She continued her trip to her house crying. She enters the house and her mother sees her “whats wrong?” she asks “A car appeared out of nowhere, and a guy stopped me and I don't know I don't know “ Her mother says “Calm down, calm down ill make you tea go change your clothes”
Enaya went to her room and started changing when the guy appeared in her room “ Dont shout “
Enaya almost peed her pants, and she was about to cry to her mother when the guy moved his hand and Enaya’s mouth was shut, Enaya struggled to say a word” He tells her “listen, In this world tea makes you forget, are you calm now, can we talk now like civilized human beings “ he lifted his hand and Enaya could talk again
“Civilized what! you are not a human being, you are the devil! “ And just as she was trying to call her mother again, he raised his hand to shut her up again.“You are a feisty one aren't you? Just remember in this particular world you are living in, momentarily tea makes you forget “ and the guy disappears. Her mother enters the room, “ why aren't you not dressed yet?” Enaya was baffled about what to say, “Im getting dressed now “ and she quickly puts on her shirt and went outside, the tea kettle was whistling, “tea is ready” her mother exclaimed. Enaya thinks to herself,” Tea doesn't make you forget… why would he appear out of nowhere and tell me that tea makes you forget, but tea doesn't make you forget. “ Her mother hands her the tea, Enaya takes a sip of it and forgets everything that has happened to her “ Enaya what was that about a man and the car?“ her mother asks. Enaya said “ Nothing I forgot, it was nothing”
The next day Enaya went to the university, she went to her classes but did not see Maher, she road her bike back home when a car glitches and crashes to the side, the man appears again in the same fashion but this time it was daylight. He tells her the exact same things and she goes home crying. Her mother sees her “Not again” her mother sighs “ What happened now?” Enaya crying rambled on about a car and a man just like last time “ What is this, you are not joking you are actually crying what is this man and what is this car that you keep seeing “ “I think I'm hallucinating mom “ Enaya exclaimed, her mother said “Go change your clothe ill make you some tea, calm down” Enaya goes to the bedroom and as she is changing the man appeared, she tried to scream the man silenced her, “ Look we dont have much time left you are going to drink the tea, write it down, I said write it down.” Enaya quickly got a pen and paper, “In this reality im living in Tea makes you forget “ her mother comes in. “Tea is ready” Enaya drinks the tea again and forgets.
The third time the same thing happens but instead of telling her “Not so fast” he tells her “de ja vu huh?“ When he stops her he says “ Trust me you do not want to tell your mom, I need to do this the exact same way so that you remember and you don't drink the tea” Enaya reaches home, this time she was just in shock and didn't cry, she enters the house, her mother checks up on her “ no man this time? “ Enaya has some memories back and understands that the best course of action is to lie “No,” she says. “Good im making tea go change your clothes” she goes to her room with everything feeling familiar and she could anticipate the man showing up in her room. She reads the paper she wrote. When she goes outside she says no to the tea. The moment she says no time stops, her mother frozen and the TV froze. The man says “ Now that i have your consent, time is going to move differently from now on, we dont have much time anyways Khaled is going to start with the machine and Adam is starting to remember” Enaya is actually scared, things are happening all of a sudden and she doesn't understand what is going on. Enaya says” who is khaled? Who is Adam? I dont know them i didnt sign up for the games and i swear i didnt tell anybody about them. Please just go away” the man said “ oh dear there is no turning back, you know now, plus your name is the DNA code” Enaya replied “ I dont know and I said no to the game and what do you mean my name is in the DNA code ? “ E glutamate N aspergine A Alanine Y tyrosine A alanine 26S PROTEASE
Responsible for degradation of toxic misfolded proteins and attenuation of protein aggregation
“The man said.
Enaya exclaimed “ what the hell does that even mean?”
The man was silent for a bit and then he said “ you have been chosen, you are the one responsible for getting Adam back his memories, he has been suffering from a form of Alzheimers where tau proteins where building up in his brain, and it is your job to degrade them”
“But how can you control time? How can you control me ? How can you do all of this ?” Enaya yelled
“ You think you are in the games now, but you're really not. This is real life baby, and what is about to happen is similar to the games but with stakes much higher, I can not emphasize this enough, the world hangs in the balance, and you need to literally save the world” the man said
“Who are you ? Are you the devil ? “ Enaya said
“ I was once a righteous man, but now my destiny is to help this world be born again, im like a glitch in a system thats trying to heal itself, im like polymerase fixing the DNA code”
“ what do i call you “ Enaya asked
“Metatron… wait are you seriously googling me” he says
“ thats an angels name you are not an angel”
“ call me max, or the devil if you want “ he said
“I'm going to call you the devil “ Enaya said
“ now we must get to work, you are going to live a series of lives, and time is not going to work like normal time works, you are going find the solution for each life, and you are going to keep living it until you find the problem and find the solution” metatron said
Enaya was checking on her frozen mother, and waving her hand in front of her eyes
“ you can literally control people and freeze time why cant you do it, and find the solutions yourself.” Enaya said
“ My dear quantum entanglement, i'm not of this world, I can control things but somethings just need to happen the old fashioned way, you know with crazy time traveling and stopping time, and living a life a thousand times until you get it right”
“ you really are the devil “ Enaya said
“ my dear im sorry, i'm actually condemning you to hell, but this is the only way it must be” Metatron says
After a pause Metatron exclaimed “Let’s start”
And he clapped his hands and Enaya wakes up in her bed.
