It continues...

Summer was coming to a close and nothing was getting resolved for Aurora.  It was all the same still.  Just all those memories or whatever they were just happening randomly, specifically when Danny was around.  Aurora felt bad that she was almost relieved that he was going out of town for a while.  It was just he was like this catalyst, the last time he stopped to visit her in the Juice Bar when she was working was almost unbearable.  Aurora felt like there were almost two versions of him there.  The physical one actually speaking to her and then one she kept getting flashes of.  Aurora even felt at one moment they had the conversation they were having already, except she wasn't behind the bar she was sitting next to him.  She practically knew what he was going to say during one conversation before he said it.  It was so overwhelming at one point she  faked a coughing fit just get some air.  So when Danny told her there were some delays in production of his new show and he would be out of town for a bit again, Aurora wasn't a disappointed as she normally would have been.  Plus there was something about the whole show thing that kept irking her.  So the less she had to  hear about it the better for a while.  However, this made her feel really guilty.  Danny was one of her best friends and now she was happy she wouldn't see him.  This whole alternate life or whatever was becoming too much.  It was frustrating her, since now it seemed to really be affecting Aurora's life that was actually occurring.
Since she was so stressed, Aurora decided to throw an end of the year pool party.  She invited all her friends and figured it would be a great distraction.  Especially since her house seemed  to still be one of the few places that didn't trigger these crazy images, unless in her dreams.
So once party time came things went well.  She was having a good time and so was everyone else.  Aurora even felt relaxed.
However, Shirley of all people had to bring something up.  


"So Gina and I were thinking.  We know that you've been agonizing over all the insane things that have been happening."
"Yes" answered Aurora a little hesitant to hear where this is going.
"No don't worry.  We just think maybe you should go talk to that psychic.  That opened a few months ago." continued Shirley.
"Yeah.  I mean maybe she could sort of make sense of all this.  Maybe give you some peace again."  added Gina.
"You mean Yvette?" questioned Aurora.  "I don't know she lives down the street.  She doesn't seem all that friendly."
"Are you kidding me?  Who cares.  You aren't looking to make a friend, just someone to make you feel less stressed." insisted Shirley.
"I don't know maybe.  It probably couldn't hurt."  Aurora said.  It wasn't that Aurora didn't believe that Yvette wasn't actually a psychic, or that she wasn't nice.  It was more what she might say.  What if all this was just nothing, and Aurora really was just having some kind of breakdown or crisis?  Or worse what if it was something?  What if this was another life she had or is going to have?  The thought of that scared her as much as it excited her.  So Aurora was torn.  She had thought of seeing Yvette before but always backed off.  But now even Shirley the biggest skeptic was suggesting it, Aurora began to think maybe Yvette was the answer.  So it was settled her next step would be seeing her.
