Ben was in a great fix and did not know what to do.
He called on his agents and asked if he could replace the two of them, but agents denied saying changes are not easy. Ben spoke to Minutty and said he should let go of his feelings and shared what the agents had said. Minutty was very disturbed and felt very pained to hear this from Ben. He did not meet Beauty that day and she could sense that something was wrong.
The next day when she met Minutty, they both held each others’ hand and prayed. They prayed to be free of my machine and wanted to have a free life. How could I hold them back? That would mean I am very cruel and don’t understand love. But if I didn’t, Ben would be very deeply hurt and people would lose trust in him and in me too.
I guess this is when people say “Testing times”. I got to experience this now and did not know how to proceed. I took some “Time” for myself and thought about the man and woman. I favored their love always and enjoyed them being in love and now how could I come between their love and separate them. I prayed to God and hoped that I don’t become cruel and hurt anyone and went to bed.
The next morning I had an idea. Ideas are very powerful and sometimes can have the ability to change lives. I travelled as an idea and was sure that this would help Minutty and Beauty to stay together always.
The result! – Ben was renewed to be in digital form. You know what that means, obviously! No more tick tocks, no more hour, minute and second hands. We only see numbers on a board displayed always which are even more precise than what old Ben and his fellows showed.
This news came as a boon to Minutty and Beauty and they both thanked God and me for this. I felt so content and I could see true love in their eyes. They both were paid their dues and freed to live their own lives. Thus they stayed happily ever after.
As for me, I am still what I am. I show the world what they should do and most importantly when!!
