Trapped In Time - Chapter 95

Tab who managed the spaceship spoke next. “Even I have nothing to add to what all Ken has said. I am equally excited to meet the people from Mother Earth, it is a dream come true.”

Finally, it was the turn of Guy. “I am very happy to meet you all,” he said with a smile while looking at Tina.

“I can see that only one of you is an adult while the rest of you seem to be young, perhaps still studying or almost completing your schooling.”

“We also have schools, colleges and Universities on Titan and our education is all on computers, it is basically paperless.”

“I would like to know something about each one of you,” he added further, still looking at Tina.

The students could see that he was talking to them but he seemed to be addressing Tina. All were nodding their heads and smiling. They found this entire conversation of Guy very amusing.

Tina, on the other hand, was feeling highly embarrassed. Her face had become red with embarrassment. How to stop this Guy getting ideas? She had figured out that he liked her, but there were worlds apart.

Nothing was going to materialize, nothing should be allowed to materialize. She belonged to the planet Earth while he belonged to a moon of the planet Saturn. Besides all this, she was still studying and she wanted to finish her studies. She was not as yet ready for any sort of relationship. Furthermore, she belonged to a country where girls were not allowed to get married at an early age. The minimum age for marriage of girls was 18 years and for Boys, the minimum marriageable age was 21 years. This was done to ensure the proper development of the female body and to ensure that the girl child could develop physically, emotionally as well as mentally i.e. she could complete her education and thus be ready to take better care of her children and family as compared to an underdeveloped, uneducated girl.

Actually, alarm bells had started to ring in her head. She had just been kind and thought of helping this guy who seemed to be an unlucky person. He was like a bull in a china shop, a clumsy chap who just landed in trouble. There were many thoughts in her mind. He may be intelligent and good in his work but that did not mean he could take a liking to her.

Since Tina was sitting nearer to John, she decided to introduce herself and get done with this task.

“My name is Tina and I am 17 years old. I will be 18 years of age within a few months,” she informed the aliens as well as John. “I am studying in the same school, actually in the same class, as the rest of the students present here.”

“Both my parents are doctors and I have a younger brother who is also studying. I like to read a lot and want to gain knowledge about everything that interests me especially computers. I want to study further and do computer programing.”

“I had come to this camping trip at the behest of my parents who wanted me to have some change, become more independent, sure of myself and my abilities.”

“On the way back via a different route, we got lost and entered a hidden place called Utopia, where people were living an existence cut off from the rest of the world for many years. We stayed there for some time helping them.”

“Our Zia Ma’am and Luke Sir are still there helping the scientists to reverse an experiment that went wrong.”

“The scientists there needed crystals for their hypnotizers. These crystals were available in the Magical World.” “Hence, we came to the Magical World through a portal along with some of the Orbs, who are basically brains of dead scientists which were trapped in the huge brain used in the Time Machine Experiment.”

“Actually, the inhabitants of Utopia are ruled by an oppressive ruler and his cronies who have spread out as administrators in the various towns. A peaceful revolution using hypnotizers is going on there.”

Now it was the turn of Zoya. All the girls were giving their introduction first.

“My name is Zoya, I am also 17 years old and an only child. I will be 18 years of age within a few months,” she informed the aliens as well as John. “I am studying in the same school, actually in the same class, as the rest of the students present here.”

“I want to study life sciences like Zia Ma’am and become a botanist. ”

“As Tina mentioned earlier that on the way back from the Camp via a different route, we got lost and entered a hidden place called Utopia, where people were living an existence cut off from the rest of the world for many years. We stayed there for some time helping them.”

“Zia Ma’am and Luke Sir have remained behind in Utopia with two of their scientists to help reverse an experiment that went wrong.”

“We came to the Magical World with some of the Orbs, via a portal in order to get some crystals. The scientists there needed crystals for their hypnotizes, to help them in the peaceful revolution underway in Utopia to overthrow an oppressive ruler and his cronies who are administrators in the various towns.”

Now it was the turn of Cathy.

“My name is Cathy and like Tina and Zoya, I will be 18 years of age within a few months. I am an only child,” she informed the aliens as well as John. “I am studying in the same school, actually in the same class, as the rest of the students present here.”

“I want to do Hotel Management after finishing school as Hotel Management is a huge area with specific fields.” “Though I know cooking I am more interested in the actual management of the hotel industry.” After I finish school I will be applying to various professional colleges.

“I came on this camping trip to test my skills,” Cathy added.

“As far as how and why we landed on this Magical World, Tina and Zoya have already explained in detail. So, I do not wish to repeat the same information.”
