Never relent, be ready to try it out.

Bo Ponomari
Bola seems to be an intelligent child who loves to show full interest in learning, most especially in school. In all the subjects she does in school, there seems to be a subject that triggers her joy most of the time, which is mathematics.

She likes the subject so much that she ensures that she will always work out mathematics every minute of her time. She ignored the fact that her classmates always have a fear of mathematics. She aims to become a civil engineer. She represents her school in any quiz or mathematics competition. And her school is proud of her.

But something seems to have happened that brought confusion to her. Her mathematics teacher stepped into the class and introduced a topic to them which was longitude and latitude. At first, she found the topic interesting but all of a sudden when her mathematics teacher started going deeply into the topic with samples, it had to deal with time and distance on a journey. She seemed to be very confused, she tried to ask questions but it was not clear to her. Then her mathematics teacher gave them assignments to do on that topic. She went home to practice more on that question but it was not clear to her. She got even more confused than usual. She decided to take a break just as the adage says “All work and no play makes Jack a foolish boy”.

The following day seems to be a weekend and her parents are not at home. She decided to go to her aunt's place to spend her weekend with her Aunt. Getting there, her aunt told her to get herself busy with reading due to her upcoming final.

She then said, “I want to have a fun weekend”. It's always reading in her house and now that she has the opportunity to relax, she wants to spend it successfully without disturbance.
“Aunty do you have any movies that I can watch?”, She asked as she just wanted to be free from her daily class assignments.
"No, I have none”, her aunt replied.
“Go and read your book, you have an external exam to write in less than a few months from now”, her aunt added.

She felt so sad that she went to her aunt's room. Getting there, she went in to check on her aunty's food shelf, she saw a book and talked about the concept of time travel. At first, the book looked like a margin due to the content but she decided to sit and read it through just to see what the book entails.

Then she got to observe an instrument called ChronoSphere which can transport individuals to the future and present. This gives her a deep understanding of what time is all about.

Finally she gets the understanding of time that has to do with the traveling aspect.

She opened the book further just to get more facts about time and saw some calculations that needed to be solved. However, some other calculations were solved alongside. She drew the attention of her aunt to the book and asked her “Aunt! Is this book for you?”
“I don't get you, you saw a book in my house and you asked if it was for me?” She ain't responded, although not in anger.
“I only asked as I have not seen you solving calculations before now and you always run from calculations anytime I give you one to solve for me”, she replied.
“I'm always not running, but have been busy with something or the other anytime you bring questions for me to solve while in your house”, her aunt replied.
“This book is mine. I love mathematics but somehow did not do a course related to mathematics”, her aunt added.

After their conversation, she went back to the book. She opened to the next chapter and saw the unexpected. The same question that was given to them to solve as an assignment was boldly solved in the book. She had to study it and in the end, knew how to solve it. She saw the mistake she had been making at the beginning and was happy.

After some hours of dropping the book, she recalled back to that instrument used to transport individuals to the future and present (Chronosphere). She took the once again and opened the page. She read it and got a deep understanding of it.

It was a Monday, she had already gone back to her house. She was in school when her teacher asked everyone to submit their assignments. She was glad to submit hers and after the marking, her teacher was surprised to see her assignments neatly solved. She got everything which made her teacher call her into the class. She was applauded.

In the class, her teacher asked them a question which came with a prize “Who told me the instrument used to transport individuals to the future and present? Anyone who gets the answer will be rewarded handsomely”.

Boland was silent without saying a word. She wanted to be sure if someone knew the answer, but to her surprise, no one.
“Going, going, and ….” As her teacher wanted to make the last statement she immediately raised her hands.
“The instrument used to transport individuals to the future and present is Chronosphere”, she said.

There was silence and immediately the teacher started clapping which led the whole class to return the clap. She was rewarded with a new mathematics textbook that was worth a tangible amount of money.
This was when she said to herself, “Thank goodness, my aunt asked me to read, and also all thanks to my aunt who has that book
