“All right,” I said to Barry. “I won’t make any more fuss about taking the
job. This is a very big adventure and I
suppose I should be grateful to my future self for suggesting me. Because, after all, my future self must
remember everything that the me now did in this time and if it was truly
horrible he could have said that he didn’t want his younger self to get
involved and so I wouldn’t be here, would I?”
There was a certain silence in my head.
“Barry,” I said, “are you there?”
“Yes, I’m here chief. It just got
a bit busy and confusing in here for a moment.”
