One day, this boy thought of bringing his friends to the forest to show them what he saw. Since no one believed him, he thought "the only way to make them trust me is, witnessing it themselves".
Anannya felt something was suspicious, the road she always took seemed different from before. Some branches were broken and she noticed few footprints.
She started hearing chatters from the North, that's her hideout. She quickly hid herself and started observing what the boys were doing.

"So, where's that girl you always talk about?" one of his friend asked. The boy was annoyed because now his friends might think he is a liar. Another friend said "maybe we should take him to the doctor". The boy screamed "No!! I'm not crazy or hallucinating, I clearly saw her hiding here the other day, why no one trusts me.." he dashed off. Anannya felt bad but she couldn't get involved because she was afraid that a small mistake she makes might change the history. While making the time machine, she made a promise to herself, "no matter what happens, I won't get involved with the lives of the people in that era and try to change the history".

Anannya was relieved when she saw the boys leave . She came out of her hiding spot . She was shocked to see that not everyone had left, one boy was standing right behind her "I knew it " he held her hand tightly. "Leave me first "she said Anannya was terrified about what would happen now. The boy had so many questions in his mind. Finally he asked" what are you doing here? are you here to attack our village ? I mean are you a spy? "he asked. Anannya did not answer she was turning on the time machine .
"I'll answer you the next time we meet" and she ask him to let go off her . He didn't do it so she had to make a move before it was too late, she bent her knee and gave a shot to his stomach which made him release the grip . He was watching her dissappear to thin air . "How is it possible? " he muttered the sentence whole day.

Anannya didn't use the time machine for some days . The boy was waiting for days in the forest for Anannya . Days passed and the boy began to think what if his friends were telling the truth maybe he has to see the doctor . Then again he told him
self "no, I held her and it was real .
Right when he was squatting down and digging the ground with a stick out of sadness and the fact that his friends are ignoring him Anannya finally had decided to show up .
He couldn't belive his eyes he stood up at once "how are you doing that ? Are you a spirit of the forest ?" he asked
"No I'm just a human like you" that's all she said.
He couldn't understand how could a human like her dissappear at once .
He didn't like her at all . He thought she was suspicious , dangerous but he had stop saying people about her .
He was irritated by her presence and he thought of not caring and pretend as she doesn't exist .
It was night and dark in the forest when Anannya thought to time travel and landed in Dormadalawa in the pitch of darkness in the forest. She heard someone approaching her. She couldn't see well in the dark. Two drunk men with fire lamps, she was too late to hide herself . They caught her. They were not in their right sense. Suddenly someone jumped right in front of her and she looked up . It was the boy from the village . He grabbed her hand they ran far away deep into the forest . While  running Anannya lost her time machine .
