Not Again

Alex, now in the middle of traffic in Birmingham with his envelope still in hand sits stunned. "Oh boy, I can not believe this." He looks in the envelope and still sees the games. "Man, I need to go see a doctor or something." Alex goes through the rest of his day somewhat uneventful. At dinner he tries to explain to Gayle what is going on. She looks puzzled and laughs "Yeah right" she says. "So you're moving around in time like some kind of science fiction movie. Sure." "You don't really believe that do you?" Alex not sure what to says just sits quiet. Overcome with the situation he tears up. "I don't know what's going on Gayle, I guess I'm going crazy or something." She comes over and hugs him. "You just need some time off." "You have been working without an off day for weeks. You probably just keep falling asleep while driving." "You're probably right." says Alex "I'll call in tomorrow and get some rest." Before going to bed Alex thinks over the situation. "If this is real, whatever is in this envelope is the only thing that comes with me. I think I'm gonna try an experiment." Alex then slips into his closet where he keeps his Ruger 9mm pistol. He takes off the gun lock and loads the gun. He then slips it into the envelope with an extra clip and puts it under his pillow.
