Allis woke up early today, because it was her grandfather’s birthday. He was one hundred twenty one years old. He had told Allis about ice-cream he had eaten when he was young. He said it was much tastier in 1955. Allis loved her Grandpa so much and she decided to go into the past to buy some ice-cream for him.
At nine o’clock Allis went to the Institute OF Time. She got into a car of time and pushed the button START...
When Allis got out of it she was in 1955. At this moment Allis saw a sign ICE-CREAM. She bought an ice-cream for her Grandpa and got back into the car of time and flew home. She had stayed in the car for three minutes only…
At 9:10 a.m. Allis got to the school.
When Allis went into the classroom all children looked at her with astonishment. The teacher said,
‘Allis where did you go?’
‘I went into the past.’
‘For half a year?’
‘No,’ said Allis. ‘For three minutes only’
‘Allis, you’ll have to stay on this level for the second year,’ the teacher said.
‘Why?’ asked Allis’s friend. ‘I’ll stay with Allis too.’
‘And I, and I, and I too…’ said her classmates.
All class stayed with Allis for the second year on the same level because it was not her fault that the time was passing differently in the past. And she missed only 10 minutes of her school lessons…
