As she saw her friends, Jennifer decided to get their attention by clearing her throat. "Hello?" She hesitantly called out. To both her relief and surprise, all of the girls' attention snapped to her.
"Wh-" Lucy was the first to speak up, looking among her friends. "Uh. Did one of you invite someone without telling me?" That question caused Jennifer to step back, eyes widening.
Diana shook her head. "No? I don't know her." Another blow to Jennifer's morale.
"Me neither." Natalie replied.
"Never seen her before, either." Tanya chimed in.
Felicity, rather than speaking, gave a head shake and an "Mm-mm." sound.
"Wh... None of you remember me..?" Jennifer questioned, part of her scared of the thought of everyone suddenly forgetting her existence, but part of her expecting that, since she DID just kinda erase herself.
"Are we... supposed to?" Lucy asked, a little creeped out by the sudden intruder. "How did you even get in here? Did you break in!? There's no entrances down there.."
"I..." Jennifer looked away, dejected, as she thought about what to say. What could she even say? Her entire life, everything she knew before the sleepover, was fabricated, and not only that, she didn't exist in this world. Nothing more than a ghost of a time that never was.
