You have no idea what happened or if this was just a weird dream.

Did you really go to McDonald’s with Gail? Had you just taken a nap after opening the invitation when you got it? And wasn’t the marshmallow pink before?

You examine the invitation again.

“I am writing you this letter to invite you to meet me at the park closest to you tomorrow evening at 6pm. I cannot tell you much at this point, but what I can tell you is that we are all very hungry. My favourite breakfast item is a black coffee and a hotdog.

I shall await your arrival at 6 o’clock tomorrow evening, and you must bring a lunchbox with you.

P.S. Inside the envelope you will find a single marshmallow, it’s blueberry flavoured.”

You weren’t just tired. This was a different letter. You know it said McDonald’s and strawberry before. This was getting more and more bizarre, but you were honestly having a bit of fun. You’d always been a fan of mysteries and this had been a terribly drawn out and tiresome year being stuck at home in quarantine.

“Whatever,” you thought to yourself. Let’s see what happens.

You pop the blue marshmallow into your mouth and squeeze it into your cheek for a second before squishing it between your teeth. It really was blueberry flavoured.

Your eyes begin to lose focus for a second, and then tunnel vision sets in. You feel a slight sense of vertigo and close your eyes.

When you open your eyes, you realize that you’re sitting in the car with Gail again. She’s looking at the dog as the sun is setting, and you’re holding the invitation, the note that reads, “We’re behind you,” and a… green marshmallow?

Options:

👉 Call the police 👉 Go after the dog 👉 Confront the McDonald’s employee 👉 Explain what just happened to Gail
