It was a dark night. The sky was bright and the star was shining like a diamond. Sarah was going to her friend’s house for the wedding. She was wearing a red dress with black shoes and a red watch on her wrist which shows an accurate time. She was waiting for her Uber to arrive and it was maximally 200 km away from her. Likewise, she instantly saw a black cat covered with black fur and having shiny Golden eyes staring at her horribly. Furthermore, she got afraid and nervous about its appearance. She looked through the street and it was desolate.
Suddenly, after some time she heard a loud, drastic noise of something landing.
She gently walked beside her Bungalow and her jaws fell down when she saw an antique and sophisticated machine near a long palm tree. It was fully metallic and well-equipped from outside. It was Rusty and dusty from the corners. It was a large spacecraft of no particular design. As she opened the door she saw so many buttons with an attractive screen in the middle, it also contained a soft seat with a strange seat belt.
Suddenly, she got imbalanced and grabbed a bunch of wire. The sparkling sound was produced and the screen switched on and on the screen with the big and bold letter it was written “welcome to the time machine”. She got frightened and she left the wire and the screen started to fluctuate. There was also a green colored button on the right of the screen which indicated “ON” on it, so she decided to press it.
As soon as she pressed it, the machine started to vibrate. Humming and buzzing sound was coming from it. The screen in the center switched on again and shows her the list of years and places and she felt strange as it was offering her to step in the past or in the future. She thinks a lot for that and after sometimes she decided to take a round in the future.”It would be very interesting to see Pakistan after the next few years” Sarah murmured and she continued “let’s go to 2035 and take a look at what we are doing on those days”.
She grabbed the seat of the machine, set up the setting and got excited to go at that moment. As the machines started vibrating more. The smoke blew out from the machine and filled up the environment. Everything becomes cloudy around the machine. Sara’s joys new no bound,Sarah
was overwhelmed so she closed her eyes and after a few seconds when she slowly and gradually opened her eyes she found herself on the place but night was changed into the day, she came out from that machine and started moving here and there.
Accidentally, wind blows faster and one newspaper hits Sarah’s face and falls down when she picks it up and starts to read. She was on the 7th sky when she saw the date on the top of the newspaper and it was 7th May 2035. Suddenly, she hears the voice of two men talking about some political condition of the country.”Oh no, once again we all have made mistakes to choose the new leader” one man said.”Oh yes!! it‘s not the new thing every time the same thing happens”after listening that, Sarah feels sad as the political condition of Pakistan has not changed yet. As move around she saw her house over there and she decided to go inside.
Gently she opens the door and enters the house. She is herself studying in the room while having chats with her friends on mobile phone, and also her mom was sitting in the hall watching television having a knife and a plate in her hand cutting vegetables while watching TV.
News on television awakened with a mighty headline, the speaker said that “One major downfall news in Pakistan is that dollar prices have a major fall of rupee 10. Now one dollar is 200 rupees”. Sarah says that her mother feels happy and satisfied to listen to that news. She was enjoying and liking watching her future but when she looked at the timing which was from the present she got to know that it was too late and decided to go back towards the time machine.
She steadily grabbed the seat of the machine and set the timing once again. One more time smoke filled up the environment. After some seconds, she found herself in the present again. She horribly came out from that machine.”It was a great experience”….wow..“It was full of fun”, Sarah said in excitement. Sarah wanted to tell everyone about this machine. She decided to go to her house and tell her parents about this. As she ran, her leg twisted and she fell down very badly…ouch!! and her eyes opened. Sarah looked around herself and she found out that this was a mysterious dream. She laughed into the stitches but she was so sleepy that slept again.
