"I just hate this world! NO JUSTICE!" screamed Molly at the top of her voice. "It's okay sweetie, just forget the past, think of how you can make tomorrow a happy day at school! " said her mother in a soothing voice. The CTC's ( Cool Teens Champions) was a bullying team at school whose new target was Molly. Mentally torturing her was nothing else they knew to do. Today, they accused her of stealing an expensive necklace made of yellow Topaz making full arrangements and all evidences against her innocence.


Molly's mother knew all that was going on but all she could do to was calm down for those spoiled brats were the sons and daughters of army men.


Everyday was the same. Molly would come home and yell while her mother would calm her down.


One day, after coming from school, her mother held out a cookbook and a box of seeds and spices to her saying that it was her maternal grandmother's special charms. She flipped to the pages with curiosity and came across dishes she never heard of - A guac through time, gumdrops to lose what you want, Teleporting Temales etc. Then she looked across the various spice families which was equally odd as the names of the dishes.


Then she came across a dish she couldn't resist reading - Sauce of Justice. After reading the recipe, she decided to cook it and have a spoon to see what justice did it bring. Once she was done with everything, something weird started to happen. She felt all tingling and small. In less than a momemts time, she disappeared into thin air. Molly felt all squeezy in her stomach and suddenly appeared back in time to the day when she was accused of stealing the Topaz necklace. But this time, she was invisible to the people around, including the CTC's.


She could literally see them making arrangements for the accusation. The moment Lyla, one of the CTC's members, kept the necklace in Molly's locker and left the locker room, she ran to fetch it and put it in Christina's, CTC's leader, locker. Suddenly the door flew open and she could see her past self walking in with the principal to check her locker. Ofcourse Christina giggled under her breathe thinking on me getting scoldings from him. What happened was the contradictory to what Christina thought. Her attempts to accuse Molly was exploited and even worst, she got suspended!

As soon as she was successful, she felt the same tingling sensation and was back in the present. She fliped the pages of the cookbook to seek more adventure and soon she realised that the book was infinite. She kept flipping the pages on and on but the book never ended. A wide smile spread across her face as she thought that she could now have as many adventures as she wanted. She did want to share her experience with her mother but if she did, her mother would take the cookbook away from her for her 'Safety'. So she decided not to tell anything about it and keep it a secret.


NOTE :

If you had ever tried to do something injust with anyone and failed despite 100% arrangements and confidence, then trust me, dear reader, Molly must have been there.
