The Mistake

John's eyes were still closed as instructed by Anmer when John realized everywhere was silent and could no longer hear the voice of uncle James, Adewale, and Adetutu. Anmer said to John ''open your eyes''.

John opened his eyes to see himself standing in a wide open land where they were nothing except the sand on the ground. John asked Anmer ''where am I?''.

''In the future, John'' said Anmer, then John felt a hand on his shoulder.

John looked at the hand and traced the hand up to see who it was that touched his shoulder. John was startled upon seeing someone with his face and got the hand off his shoulder then he moved a little bit backward. John asked ''who are you?''.

''Who do you think I am'' said Anmer.

''You can't be Anmer, right?'' said John (confused), seeing the person with his face.

''Then who else?'' asked Anmer.

''How come you look like me?'' asked John confused.
