Tessa, London 1878

I hear a loud crash in the library as i walk past the door. What on earth. I think to my self, I open the door and there's Henry sprawled on the ground with a massive pile of books on top of him, "Tessa!" He exclaims seeing me, "Are you okay Henry?" "Yes, yes i'm fine," He says with a smile, "Just working on one of my inventions and was looking for something . . ." He trailed off. I walk over and help him up, "What on earth were you looking for Henry?" I ask him, "Oh!" His face lights up - really pleased that someone has asked him no dout - "I was looking for a book on time travel," "Time travel! Whatever for?" He beames at this question, "I'm trying to create a portal that travels through time as well as taking you to other places!" Time travel! Honestly! "Sounds delightful Henry!" Suddenly he picks up a book, "Found it!" He exclaims, "Ooh i'd better go, see you for dinner Tessa!" He shouts as he runs off down the hall. I laugh shaking my head. I honestly think that nothing could get Henry down ever!
