A Twist in the Life

I shook my head. Nothing there....maybe I had just imagined the roses. Maybe he had taken them with him. I walked outside and trotted over to Sugarcube corner. I opened the shop up and checked the register. Fifty bits short! I quickly called Mrs. Cake and told her about the missing money. She just laughed on the other end, "You're hilarious, Mint! That's how much there was yesterday!" I was just so...confused. I sat through the day, still confused. All of the same customers came in and ordered the same thing. But the weirdest thing was when Lyra and Bonbon burst through the door. Bonbon collapsed on the floor, panting heavily. Lyra opened her mouth to speak, out of breath, "Minty! The Wonderbolts are here!"

"Um....I know. You told me yesterday."

Lyra tilted her head. "But they just announced it an hour ago..."

I just laughed. "You guys are hilarious!"

Bonbon stood up and swished her tail. "Hey Mint, are you feeling alright? Maybe you should take the rest of the day off."

And that was when I realized how screwed I was.
