Dad was sitting on the couch watching a football match. Mom sat beside him, lying her head on his shoulder. I smiled when I saw them. I coughed slightly and said, “I am going to my room. Just call me when it’s dinner time. “ Then I walked upstairs. That’s when I heard mom’s voice, “Go wash yourself first. “ I nodded as I w
I heard the opening of the door. When I turned around, I saw it was Hank and Sister Nicole. Everyone might be confused about some things, like why am I calling Nicole as sister Nicole, because she should be close to Hank’s age, and Aunt Maria and Daria were also close to his age. In this reality, Hank was in his late twenties, and Nicole was also in her twenties. But in the original reality, Hank was in his forties or something. Nicole and Hank both walked in, holding each other’s hands. My mind was blank and I don’t know how to tell them that when they return to the original reality, they might not meet or even be together.But seeing the shy smile on Nicole’s face, I didn’t want to make her sad. So I chose not to speak about it and started teasing both of them. Although they were a little angry, but it was all worth the teasing. They know me better by now I guess. They know I was teasing, so they didn’t take it to thei
I'm back... The book has reached 4k, and I hope the number continues rising. But there are still no more book ratings. So I need the help of the readers to continue reading and sharing this book. But don't forget to leave a review in the end. These reviews helps me a lot, in terms of a boost to write, as well as a guidance for a newbie writer like me. There had been a problem of chaps repeating, but I have undone those mistakes. So that's all. Rate this novel of mine.. And good news, I am starting to work on a new work of mine. It would soon be available. Peace.
The reason dad was shocked when he heard about Nicole was because in the original reality there was no Nicole that any of us knew. Nicole is having a relationship with Hank, instead of the confusing relationship of Aunt Maria and Daria with him. Dad felt it weird because he had already accepted him as his own brother-in-law, and now because of the change in reality everything differs from how it should be. Dad then asked me, “Does she know Hank had a relationship with someone else in the original reality?” Shaking my head, I replied, “I couldn’t find it in me to tell that to her. It might break her. “Dad sighed, then he said, “Your mom has unknowingly changed many lives. Although we won’t agree that she is wrong. But what she did was originally wrong, if we were to see it from the view of others. “ I nodded. Because what he said was indeed true. Then, as if to change the subject
The rest of the time was just like any other. Mom and dad talked about various things during dinner, but I ignored their talk and focused on eating. I was woke up from the train of thoughts by mom’s voice, “Mike!” I raised my head and looked at mom and dad, who were looking at me with worried eyes. Dad asked me, “Are you alright, son?” I could hear his worries through his words. Shaking my head, I said, “It’s just that dinner is so tasty that I was lost. What were you both speaking about?” Mom smiled happily when she heard my words and looked at dad with a proud expression.Yeah, I have played the trick. To escape from a fight or any such situation, just praise the woman involved. I did the same. Now even dad won’t be able to say something about me fazing while eating dinner. Mom repeated with a smile, “We were speaking about how we wanted to hold our grandchildren in our hands, so you should marr
The next day, I woke up at five in the morning. I was woken up by the call on my mobile. I drowsily picked it up and saw the caller id. It turned out to be Hank. I groaned and picked up the call. I said, “Hey Hank.. Why are you calling me early in the morning?” An overly excited voice of Hank replied from the other side, "I finally did it, Mike. I did it. “ I drowsily said, “You lost your virginity or something?” To this Hank replied in a shocked tone, “What? No.. No, I mean that’s not what I was talking about. I finally made it.. The device that could prevent us from forgetting our lives here, when we go back to the original reality. And it is safe, and we would remember everything. “Then he started laughing. I couldn’t help, but groan and said, “Okay.. “ Then I hung up the phone. Just when I placed my mobile on the table and laid on the bed to sleep, the phon
Looking at the machine, I couldn’t help but ask Hank, “Are you sure this machine works? I mean, you haven’t even tested this machine yet. What if this machine doesn’t even work, and instead it blows up? I am just eighteen. I still don’t have children and I don’t want to die this early. “ Hearing my words, Hank rolled his eyes and said, “Kid.. I am a smart guy. And this woman here.. “ He pointed at Nicole and continued, “is one of the smartest mind, in not only physics and engineering but also in material science. So by saying that you doubt me, but also doubting her. Believe me, you don’t want to doubt her. It rarely ends good for those who doubt her. Here, you. “I nodded. Nicole chuckled and said, while she walked towards me, “He is just afraid.” Then she hugged my shoulders and said while looking at Hank, “you didn’t perform the
I did not know, how long I was floating in the white area. My eyes closed when I saw the same white light, and now that my eyes are open, I am still in the same white area. It was like, everything was white for miles, probably this was some kind of space similar to the one I was in before. Though this is bright, it is still the same. Then suddenly, as if there was a black hole somewhere, I was suddenly pulled away, towards a vortex like structure. But what I saw on the other side of the vortex, had shocked me the most.There, lying on the other side of the vortex, was me. I was unconscious and probably in a hospital. It was because of the outfit I wore on the other side of the robe, and the green bedsheets. These two things were the hint. I got to deduce that I was indeed in a hospital. That’s when I noticed something weirder. I muttered, “These wounds are too familiar.. “I came to the other side of the vorte
When I reached home, I directly went to visit mom in her room. When I knocked on the door, I heard a weak voice speak, “Come in. “There, lying on the bed, was mom. Her face was a little pale. Though it looked like she was in grave danger, the doctor had confirmed that it was just because she had eaten nothing and didn’t rest. At least that’s what Luna said to me, when I asked her about mom’s situation. I walked towards mom and sat down beside her on the bed. These three years had also changed her body. She had few white hairs, but they weren’t easy to notice before. But now, she had more white hair. Mom smiled lightly when she saw me, and she raised her hand to touch my cheek and she continued looking at me with loving eyes.I talked to her. Well, it was mostly her talking. I just listened to her. She was constantly apologising for using her power to change the reality. She told me how she didn’t want to lose me, l
She tried opening the door of my car. But unfortunately for her, she did not know, that only I can open that car, unless I have given the permission to use it to others. I had only given that permission to the girls, and the car was directly under the control of A1. So, there was no chance that Sam could open that door and sit inside. And now seeing her trying to open the door and then finally looking at me with a stupid look, made me almost laugh out loud. But I didn’t, because she had noticed that my expression was changing. So I instead looked down and ran towards the car. Then I opened the door after the finger print recognition.Sam was silent and sat down in the car without speaking. But when she sat inside the car, she gasped in surprise. She was surprised when she looked at the features inside the car. She looked at me with excitement in her eyes and asked, “This model.. Is this out for sale yet?” Shaking my head, I replied, &ldqu
T1 helped with successfully implanting the Bio-chip on the back of my neck. I could just sit down and grit my teeth, as I felt a jarring pain at the back of my head. It was as if every cell of my brain was being destroyed and made again. But all of it was just my imagination, since I saw the status of my brain on the screen, from the corner of my eyes. And according to the data’s being displayed, everything was okay with my brain, except because my brain was in a state of virtual activity. Being in virtual activity simply means that because of some external factors, the brain is forced into a situation which is just a made up factor made by the brain, because of that external force. And the external force for me was the Bio-chip placed on my neck.A1’s holographic figure looked at me with a worried look. Obviously only her face was visible, as she had just show her head, instead of her entire body, as she usually did. I smiled as I gave her a r
After the dinner, I signed the contract with Elena and Daisy. Then the girls and I shared the bed and had a sleepless night. Many days passed like this. I had been doing the same thing these days. Studying nanotechnology, designing the training room, upgrading the already made products. I even designed the upgraded version of smart prosthesis. The new version of smart prosthesis was actually for those, who were paralysed. It took me a lot of time to read many books about neurology, including the anatomy and physiology of brain. I had to study several books on bio-chips. Those were some of the top secret files of several countries, which I got access to, thanks to A1.After several thesis made by top biotech scientists of this world, I could learn a thing or two about the bio-chips. Bio-chips can control anything with our brain. Obviously those things should be someway attached to the circuit of the bio-chip. Only when you form a closed circuit with the bio
I immediately tried my best to calm him down, but all of it was in vain. That’s when, A1 thought of something. She said in my ears, “Leave it to me, Mike. “ I had been listening to music, while I was reading those books on nanotechnology. It just made me relax, because reading such books for a long time was anything but entertaining. If not for the music that I was hearing, I might have been bored a long time ago. I hummed in response, which was ignored by the lawyer Uncle. A1 suddenly projected herself out of my smart watch, as a holographic loli figure.I was amazed. Not a loli-con myself, but I understand a beauty just with a glance. Similarly, I can understand if a person would look beautiful from looking at her younger version. That’s my talent, ahem. A1 started speaking to the surprised lawyer uncle, “Hello Mr. Simmons. I am A1, an intelligent program created by Mike. That voice belonged to me. And as we are talkin
I don’t know who it was, but when we got out of the airport, I found a familiar black car. It was obviously Hexon, that I had made. To be more specific, this was the car, I had given to the girls, and mom, to travel. Seeing these two cars out, I narrowed my eyes, thinking how these cars were here. Soon, I found out the reason. It was Mr and Mrs Jones. Seeing her father and mother, Mia immediately rushed towards them with a smile, and hugged them. Her parents smiled as they hugged her back. Even the girls, mom and I couldn’t hold back our smile, when we saw this scene.When she noticed the awkward silence around her, Mia poked her tongue out and then loosened her parents from her hug. It was a minute change, but I saw the expression of relief on the face of Mr Jones. Feeling someone’s gaze upon him, Mr Jones looked at me awkwardly, talking to me with his eyes. Actually, it was a more like a way. We men talked to each other about something
While I walked, I saw a face, which I had seen a long time ago. It was the assistant of Mr. Arnab Singh. Arnab Singh, the same guy, from whom I had bought that flying surf board that day, three years ago. I still remembered that lady, who brought coffee for me that day, or was it tea? Her face had changed a little. Just when I saw her three years ago, she didn’t look mature. But now, she had that otherworldly aura, which screamed maturity. And truth be told, she was still beautiful like how she was three years ago.But I did not know if she still remembered me. I mean, who would remember a person, whom they have met three years ago? That’s not possible, unless the person has a sharp memory. So I walked away, saying nothing. If I asked her, and she still doesn’t remember me, that would be very awkward. So yeah, better prevent that situation from happening. So I just did that. I walked past her. But to my surprise, when I looked at he
Saying that, I walked out of the confinement cell, leaving the confused Aeris behind. Just when I was far enough, I heard him mutter something. But I ignored his words. Aeris was gritting his teeth. He understood that one of his people tried to destroy some city, but he failed. Aeris felt lost, since he didn’t know who that person was. Aeris still has a wife, an angel, whom he had married, when he joined the spy forces of the Heaven. She was one of his colleagues, and then they started liking each other. And finally, after three years of relationship, they married each other, with the blessings of The Lord God.The night of the wedding, his wife went to the holy shrine, to get the blessings of the Lord. And the next day when she arrived, she was happy, yet different. Thanks to the blessings of the Lord God, they were happy in their life. That’s when Aeris got this mission, of infiltrating the human world, and cause chaos, and prepare the world
But imagine my surprise when Celia finally said, “One day. “ So I asked her again, “One day?” To which she nodded. I sighed in relief. It was good that only a day had passed since the tsunami. That’s when I remembered about the tsunami and asked her, “What about the tsunami and those people?” Celia smiled and replied, “They are all fine. You could stop the tsunami, but by the end, you had fallen unconscious. Thankfully, a mother and son duo saw you, and took care of you, till dad and his team arrived there. “ I sighed in relief, when I heard how I had stopped the Tsunami waves, from hitting the coast of XX city and saving thousands of lives. But when I heard the latter part, I wanted to meet the son and mother duo, who had taken care of me.That’s when Celia told me that the others had also arrived here as soon as they could. Obviously, it was Celia, who had informed them, just as she had ended her call with he
So that’s what I did. I rushed towards the sea. Unknown to me, a small boy pointed towards the direction where he saw a man in a black metal suit disappear. He pointed as he pulled his mother to tell her. The mother was pale in fright because of the nearing tsunami waves, which would soon hit the coast and would destroy everything. It would swallow people, including both the son and mother duo. She was a single mother, who took care of our son. And since it was the vacation of her son, she had taken him to Mumbai, the coastal metropolitan city. If not for bringing him here, both of them might have been safe. It was pointless to think about the past since neither the past nor the present can change.When she saw her son pointing towards a black shadow, which was disappearing soon. She heard his words, amongst the cries of others who were rushing to find cover, since no rescue can be done anymore. And they could only wait to brace for the impact. If th
