Chapter-07

The Revelation

"It was you! Hailey" Jacob informed.

"What the hell are you talking about? I knew you were lunatic."

"I should not have believed you on the first place" Hailey yelled.

"I am not crazy, Hailey."

"You were the beginning of everything."
Jacob replied serenely.

"It was you, who stole my father's time machine from the cemetery." Jacob stated.

Jacob told Hailey,

She was the reason it all started.

And she was the only person who could fix the time machine.

That is why he went to cemetery that day and gave Hailey the note.

Hailey was dumbfounded!

She could not understand a word coming out of Jacob's mouth.

Jacob tried to explain Hayley everything as calmly as he could.

"You were passing by the cemetery that day."

"You were very exhausted with your life."

"You wanted to run away from your gruelling life."

Then you saw my father's time machine,

And indiscreetly you went in it and came into this timeline."
Jacob told Hailey.

Hailey slowly started believing Jacob's words.

Hailey was surprised to hear it.

She does not understand what was going on and why she would do this.

Then Jacob calmly explained everything to her,

You were very upset and fed up with your everyday life and wanted to run away from that place.

You, yourself have stated that in your journal, that you wanted to escape that place.

That day when you were passing by the cemetery.

You saw my father's time machine,

Without giving it a second thought, you went inside it and reached the same time line, at my father's laboratory.

When you saw the view inside,

you were very impressed and you decided to use it for your own sake.

You started working on it.

You enhanced it even more than before.

After you learned everything about the time machine.

You wanted to add a feature in it which allows people to travel in time whether its past or future,

but cannot bring anything back from there.

So, that no one can find you.

But you did not have the required element for it.

You started searching it and tracked it after a long time.

You found that element but it was in the past and had extinct by the present time.

You desperately wanted to get that element on your hand.

Because you thought it could be the only way to escape from your previous exhausting life.

That never improved no matter what you tried.

So, you decided to go to the past.

To acquire that element.

To be continued...
