“Wakey wakey little prince the school bus is coming, it’s speeding speeding speeding up and you don’t want to miss it. The driver won’t wait for you, he is always angry because his own kids missed hi bus. Wakey wakey little prince the school bus is coming. It’s speeding….”“Oh stop talking” Matilda groaned tiredly, covering her ears with her pillow but the electronic parrot kept singing.“He is always angry because his own children missed hiiiiisss” the electronic parrot hissed on the floor after Matilda attacked with her shoe which she threw at it.“Gross” she sighed heavily, climbed down from the bed and headed out of the room barefooted. Scratching her messed up hair, she headed down to the dinning.“She’s out, she’s awake” Steve said slowly as Matilda was approaching the family.“Mum, I didn’t tell you anything” Will whispered to their mother.“It’s okay darling, I got this”“Mum” Will simpered slowly.“Hey sweetheart, are you…did you just come out of your room barefooted?” their

Matilda, Dustin, Steve and Molly came out of the café and headed east.“Where are we going to exactly, if I may ask?” Molly broke the frustrating silence.“Home” Matilda replied slowly.“What do you mean? What home?” Molly asked again.“Our house, she means” Steve answered Molly.“To do what? To go and sleep? Or do you guys have a painting house, maybe we are going to your house to paint? We should be looking on how to get our stupid asses out this boring past” Molly rushed with scoffs.“Look Molly, if you fucking know any other stupid way to get your stupid fucking ass out of here, then do it. I will fucking do my own my way” Matilda turned to her spoke to her face.“Do you even have a plan? Weirdo”“To meet my mum and talk to them”“To meet your mum in this past? You think she will remember you or is she s fortune teller?” Molly smiled.“Come on Molly, let’s stick to the first plan. If it doesn’t work out then we look for other ways to get out of here” Dustin whispered to Molly.“

“Okay here’s the plan. We will all go to Molly’s house, look for the dad and ask him about the clock” Brooks said.“My dad is a crazy scientist. He might know that I and Molly are his children and he might sense that something is wrong” Dustin said.“Then it will be fine. Who wouldn’t want his children back to where they deserve?” Mrs. Brooks corrected.“My Dad won’t. he’s a crazy scientist”“Stop calling him that” Molly said slowly.“When were you born?” Brooks asked Dustin.“Twins, born March 2003”“Twins?” Steve was surprised.“Which means that you both are only seven months old. I don’t think he will recognize” Mrs. Brooks smiled.“That’s a bad idea, totally a bad idea” Matilda joined.“Tell us, what is a good idea Tilda?” Molly scoffed at Matilda“Don’t abbreviate my name”“Don’t you have a good idea please?” Molly continued.“What if he hasn’t gotten the clock yet or don’t know about it yet? None of us is sure about it” Matilda looked at them.“When were you when we said that t

Doctor Peter laughed happily and looked at Brooks“You think I will be stupid not to find out? Do you know who I am?”“Look I can explain everything that is happening right now”“No! no I don’t need your explanation at all. You just did me a favor, an unforgettable favor for my experiment” he laughed again.“Sir”“What do you mean, did you a favor? What experiment are you talking about?” Matilda asked him.“Trapping someone from the future into this past” he chuckled.“What?” Steve asked nervously.“My experiment requires someone from the past, that is why all this is happening” he replied.“You did it” Dustin replied.“Did what?” Matilda looked at Dustin.“He tricked us into this place”“Yes, that’s my boy. You are absolutely smarter than your sister. You might even be smarter than me” Doctor Peter said to Dustin.“Someone should clear me, what’s…what’s going on? What are you guys talking about?” Molly asked, staring at her father.“I placed the clock where you both can fin

Mrs. Eunice found herself in same kitchen. She looked around her and noticed some changes in the kitchen. “Wow’ she was surprised, still looking around.‘Mum’ a voice interrupted her and she looked towards the door immediately, it was Dustin.‘Oh my God, Dustin is that you?’ she asked him, surprised.‘I thought you are in the car already. I saw you in the car before coming in’ Dustin said, grabbing some cans of sprite from the fridge.‘Oh no… that… that wasn’t, that wasn’t me’ she chuckled confusedly.‘Off course we don’t have two you in this house and’ he chuckled with her and kick closed the fridge.‘Maybe we do’ she said slowly.‘What year is this?’ she asked him.‘2022 mum’‘And I guess this is January?’ she asked and Dustin stared at her.‘Aren’t you coming? You said we are late’ he looked at her, struggling with the drinks in his hands.“By the way you look younger today, what cream is that?”‘Cream? Where’s your dad?’‘Might be in his lab. He said to go without him.
