a_time_slip"Janie Louise!" called Sara, early one afternoon. She was still stuck on Ome Aztlan, away from her boyfriend and her life in a far away land. Her rescuer wasn't back on duty yet, which meant that she had to stay in a safe house until he was able to get her home.
The safe house was nice, and even had a large yard, but it also had Janie.
"Janie Louise!" she repeated "Did you switch my sugar with salt?"
"Who would DO such a thing?" Janie asked, laughing "Was your tea ~sal~ Tea?"
"...That's not funny."
"Oops? Do you want more tea-tea?"
Sara gave Janie a stern look, then searched the cabinet for the sugar. "Did you switch bodies with Lynn?"
"Did I what?"
"You're acting like a child."
"No! That wasn't an easy prank. You've caught it every other time."
"I've ignored it."
"Ohh." Janie had another grin on her face "Sugar is in the freezer." The grin fell when Sara removed the cup of water that would have fallen over when she opened the freezer.
"You need to go home."
"They're pranks! I don't mean no harm."
"I'm going to be leaving soon, and you need to do something other than hide away and play pranks."
"Can I paint my boat purple?"
"Purple... It's your own damn boat, do what you want."
"It was a joke Ma."
"You're not the only one that can joke"
"What's that mean?" she asked, taking a seat since she was done with the pranks for now.
"You'll see. Go home Janie, and I'll come visit you before I go back to my home."
"To see your Prince? Is he handsome? Are you two going to get married?"
"No. I'm only dating him. He'll find someone more suitable."
"Will you elope?"
"No." Sara turned to leave the room, and Janie tried to get up to follow. She was stuck fast to the seat
"Sara!"
The other woman softly laughed to herself, then watched as Janie began to laugh, one she realized she'd been pranked.
