Loop-de-Loop (part 5)
Once again... I was snatched back... Snapped like the most
taut rubber banded Time-Loop that had ever occurred, before?
#
"Where's... Mary?" I asked the Prof. Then, Wygstaff gave that
'What the Beelzebub are you talking about' look toward me.
I was just getting up from the Stasis Chamber, having a
quick glance all around the Laboratory... But no Mary!
It seemed that I was back to my original 2037 in Time.
#
I gave the Professor a quick run-down, of all that I had
experienced - in my trip back to my earlier 'Life' (past).
He simply shrugged his shoulders, and then suggested we go
have a spot of lunch... then, maybe 'Try Once More'. "Yes!"
I said, with not even the minutest hesitation. And, we did.
They say that the Third Time is The Charm? But that was, I
do believe, an American expression? Anyways, I hoped it was!
#
When I awoke, yet again, back in 2015, I found myself in an
even more curious 'position' - it would seem. For, I was
not back into Henry Alfonse Chadwick the 3rd's body... But
was now back inside Mary's again. As Her unborn... Baby!
#
Well, at any rate, I would not get a 4th chance. For,
unknown to me, right after the Prof sent me back, his
Lab was raided by MI5/6 or some other secret agency.
His machine was turned off... and confiscated. My 44
year old body - even stranger - just vanished. Like
it had never existed before. Wygstaff then cried.
But I would never know these facts. If they were
indeed 'Fact's. 'Factotum, ergo Tempus Fugit' as
the Professor once used to say to a 'never' Me.
#
Anyways, I decided that in being Mary's baby (son?),
I now would be even more Loved... and Closer to Her than
possibly I ever could have been otherwise: more so than a Lover;
a Friend; or any Husband. And, later on... I must admit, the sweet
taste of Mary's Mothers Milk, from Her 2 lovely nipples, was Grand!
