Bab 2: Chapter 2: Unexpected Consequences
The morning sun filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow across the room. Sergio Marquina, alias "The Professor," blinked his eyes open, momentarily disoriented by his unfamiliar surroundings. As memories of the previous day flooded his mind, he recalled the implausible event that had brought him here – waking up as his younger self, a professor with a deep passion for heists and an audacious plan.
Sitting up in bed, Sergio couldn't shake off the surreal sensation that clung to his consciousness. He swung his legs over the side of the bed and ran a hand through his tousled hair. How was this possible? Could this be a dream, a hallucination, or something far more inexplicable?
Pushing his uncertainty aside, Sergio decided he needed answers. He got up and padded across the room to a mirror hanging on the wall. His reflection gazed back at him, and he studied his face intently. Yes, it was definitely his younger self, the version of him that existed before the tumultuous events of the heist at the Royal Mint.
His thoughts were interrupted by the ringing of a phone. Sergio's heart skipped a beat as he picked up the device from the nightstand. It was an old Nokia phone, a far cry from the advanced technology he was accustomed to. The screen displayed a single contact: Raquel Murillo.
With a mixture of apprehension and longing, Sergio answered the call. "Hello?"
"Sergio? Is that really you?" Raquel's voice came through, tinged with disbelief and a hint of hope.
He cleared his throat. "Yes, it's me, Raquel. I know this is hard to believe, but something inexplicable has happened. I woke up in the past, as my younger self."
There was a pause on the other end of the line, as if Raquel was processing his words. "I... I don't know what to say. This is beyond anything I could have imagined."
Sergio felt a rush of emotion. Talking to Raquel after so long brought back a flood of memories and feelings. "Raquel, I need your help. I don't know how this happened or why, but I'm determined to figure it out."
"I'm here for you, Sergio. Just like before," she replied, her voice filled with the same steadfast support he had come to rely on during the heists.
As they talked, Sergio realized that his actions in this timeline could have unintended consequences on the future. He needed to be cautious, as any deviation from the original course of events might create ripples he couldn't predict.
Over the next few days, Sergio began discreetly gathering information and assessing the situation. He visited his parents, strategized ways to bring together his future team of heist experts, and revisited his old heist plans. But every step he took was calculated, every decision weighed against the possible repercussions.
The lines between his past and present blurred as he navigated the complexities of this new reality. He found himself torn between the familiar longing for Raquel and the realization that their love story had yet to unfold.
As the days turned into weeks, Sergio knew that the ultimate test lay ahead – the perfect heist that had brought them fame and notoriety. Only this time, he had a deeper understanding of the stakes and an even stronger commitment to his plan.
And so, Sergio Marquina, the man who had always lived in the realm of meticulously constructed plans, embarked on the most unpredictable journey of his life. He was awakening minds, not just to execute a heist, but to navigate the labyrinth of time itself, with love, ambition, and an unyielding determination lighting his path.
