Like a broken ship, Tinos' room was completely messy. He has not tidied it up at all, plus the arrival of Marco which makes the room conditions more ambiguous. Blankets and pillows were on the floor, his table was full of various utensils. Now the atmosphere of the room is getting heated due to the debate of Marco and Tinos. The computer cannot be used to go back to the past dimension, because Marco also does not know how.
The commotion continued, Tinos still wanted to go back in time if a liaison portal had appeared. He had no idea what kind of risk he was going to face. Danger lurks at every moment in the war, it is impossible to calm down. The boy really had a firm stance. Marco shook his head at Tinos' mischievous behavior. As they were seriously debating, suddenly Marco's computer screen flashed brightly. They turned their heads together, a black hole appeared on the computer screen.
Undone the shock on their faces, without even taking a step. They were both sucked into the portal. Tinos carries with him Marco to the past. All the goods that had been packed by Tinos were carried away, as well as the book Marco needed.
The goods fell with the rise of Marco and Tinos. Tinos was surprised instead of being a bitch, he was staring at his surroundings. Many foreign objects in that place, there are also those that he has seen in the history books, such as armor arranged in the laboratory. Now they are in the lab, where Marco first knew the world of the past. Tinos smiled happily and looked at Marco.
“Finally we moved, now we must be in the era of war.”
“Stupid. You should not be happy,” said Marco.
Tinos simply turned his face and walked towards the array of armor on display. He was suddenly startled by the appearance of the figure of a middle-aged man. Apparently it was Nolas, he smiled towards Marco and Tinos. Tinos' face was puzzled as he looked at the man, it seemed like he had seen him somewhere. Not in the history books, but that person looks like someone.
“Welcome back, Marco. Good thing you can come back safely, who is this little boy?”
“I Tinos Koulos! I'm not an ordinary child, I'm very strong,” Tinos chirped.
“Hai, Tinos. Very excited for you,” Nolas greeted the boy.
“Yes. I am the one who will help you fight.”
“Hoho. You're so funny, you better hide with the other kids. War will be very dangerous.”
“Enak. Don't underestimate my prowess.”
Tinos really made Marco even more dizzy. The story was different, now he had to fight while guarding the snot boy. Tinos were very chatty and would definitely trouble half-dead. What Marco felt could not be denied anymore, because Tinos was indeed wayward. Even if he could prevent the boy, he would still whine to join the war training.
Until this moment, Marco was always made tired when he had to answer all the questions Tinos asked. The little boy kept sniffing all the time, his mouth was still ordinary, was he not tired? While Marco's mouth is certainly foaming because it answers all Tinos' questions. From meaningless questions to god-level questions he blurted out every time.
But because of his chatty mouth, Marco was not lonely. The mouth of a boy named Tinos, but like a thousand mouths when he began to speak. Maybe the boy could not shut his mouth to keep quiet.
It's not free all the time he's been through with Marco. He was able to absorb a lot of knowledge from his relationship with Marco. Their age difference is far away. Tinos is 10 years old and Marco is 20 years old. However, the age difference does not prevent them from sharing and making friends.
When the breath has ended, the body has stiffened. That's when friendship will be separated. All the stories about life that went through together will end up being mere memories. But, as long as we are still given life, never disappoint your best friend let alone hurt her heart. Arguments, disagreements, are natural things in friendships. Depending on how each self responds, do not damage the friendship because of trivial problems. Therefore, being mature in thinking is important, even if we are still children, or even childish.
Childhood is a natural trait. There are many adults whose behavior is still like a child. But it doesn't matter, no matter how old you are, you will still have the souls of children. Since it will make you happy, it can be a way to enjoy this trouble-filled life.
It's a burden indeed, if we have to take care of a very wayward boy. Understanding such a heavy load makes the brain seem to boil. Marco's patience seems to have been very strong, although he often argued and did not want to budge with Tinos.
Nolas orders his lab employees to bring some food and drink to Tinos and Marco. Officers assigned by Nolas immediately carried it out. Tinos walked around on each side of the laboratory room. He seemed amazed by the tools, as well as the experiments that were in the laboratory. He was watching with jelly, his eyes seeming unwilling to blink.
Marco sat in his chair and read the book he had just picked up from the future. Nolas seems curious about the book Marco is reading. He drew closer to Marco while putting on a face full of curiosity. It must be in his mind that he would like to know the contents of the book. That is the true nature of a researcher, he is very hungry for information and new things. Not everyone likes to read, but people will read what they like. Most are like that, curiosity sometimes loses with liking.
Unlike Nolas, who will certainly read anything that can make him satisfied. The new books he reads will add to his knowledge. Until now, Nolas had never forgotten to read even if only one page. Start by reading what you like, it doesn't matter. As long as you are consistent in completing your reading, one day your brain will be hooked to reading more books.
From a book, we come to know science and other amazing things. When reading adventure stories, you will definitely feel the story you read, even fantasizing if you are the one who experienced the incident. That is great reading, your imagination will grow sharper and your knowledge will expand indefinitely. Your brain capacity will be able to hold many stories, because humans are intelligent creatures.
“What book are you reading?” ask Nolas.
“Oh. This is my father's pharmacy book.”
“So, that's the book you want to take?”
“Yes. I will do great things by studying this book,” Marco replied with a smile.
