MATILDA

The Twins

“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 the clock was found in 2005?” Molly sighed.

“She has a point. Smart daughter I have there” Brooks smiled.

“So…what else do we do?” 

“We should meet our mother instead and let Mrs. Brooks do the talking” Dustin said.

“Why would she be the one to do the talking?” Steve stared at Dustin.

“Because she’s a nurse and Mrs. Brooks is pregnant. They might cope along very well” Dustin replied.

“Celestial” Molly chuckled.

“Alright let’s go” Brooks chuckled loudly.

“Wait…right now?” Steve asked.

“Off course son, let’s go get you all from wherever you came from” Brooks chuckled again.

“Take us to your house Dustin, let’s make this shit easier” Matilda smiled to Dustin.

“Pray it works” Dustin sighed.

          They arrived at a very beautiful white bungalow and stop beside the tall pillar of the house.

“This it is?” Molly said slowly.

“This people are damn rich” Steve was amazed.

“He built one bigger than this in the future” Dustin said slowly.

“Ok Mum, it’s time” Matilda looked at her mum and Mrs. Brooks sighed heavily.

“Come on honey, we will just stay here and wait for you” Brooks said to her and pecked her lips. Mrs. Brooks breathed down and headed to the door of the house. While the rest watched, Mrs. Brooks knocked at the door and a young lady opened the door.

“That’s mum” Dustin said.

“Wow she’s pretty” said Steve and the rest looked at him.

“What?” he shrugged. While they were watching, Mrs. Brooks and the twins mother walked into the house.

“Should we follow them?”

“We should probably follow them before the crazy man do some shit” Brooks said and they headed towards in.

“I don’t actually think that it is a very good idea. For instance, I and my husband has been working on this experiment we thinks will change the world” Eunice said and looked at Mrs. Brooks.

“What kinda experiment is that?”

“Time travel”

“Time travel?”

“Yes and at first it worked out and my husband travelled to the future, 2010”

“What?” Mrs. Brooks was surprised and she looked out from the window and saw her husband and the kids approaching the house.

“He learnt about a mysterious object that makes it easier to travel to any where you want, especially future and past” Eunice continued.

“That object will really be a rare one”

“It’s a clock, an ancient clock and yeah, it is very rare” Eunice said and Mrs. Brooks was shocked.

“So…what’s your husband’s plan for this ancient clock?” Mrs. Brooks asked.

“He is currently preparing for his trip to 2005, the year the clock was found and off course he now knows where the item was found” Eunice giggled. She went to her children’s bed and carried out her twins.

“My babies, I gave birth to them seven months ago” she smiled to Mrs. Brooks.

“Awww look at how cute they are” she smiled happily and the rest bashed into the room.

“Who are these?” Eunice held her babies tight when she saw the rest.

“Oh they are..they are family” Mrs. Brooks smiled.

“Is that us?” Molly looked at the babies Eunice was carrying.

“Yes, that’s us” Dustin replied slowly.

“Why is my hair white?”

“Because it was white till you turned it purple” Dustin replied.

“I thought I told you all to wait outside?” Mrs. Brooks said loudly to them.

“The car won’t start mum” Molly called and looked at Mrs. Brooks. Everybody was surprised.

“Mum? I thought you said this is still your first pregnancy?” Eunice asked her.

“Honey what is happening here and who are these people?” Doctor Peter came in, asked and his eyes caught Molly and Dustin. He stared at them for a while and returned his eyes back to the babies on Eunice’s arms.
