On a quiet riverbank in a modern city park, the three companions, Jayak, Mado, and Kunta, sit cross-legged under shady trees. The fresh and comfortable air cools the skin of those who are not familiar with the center of civilization today. They looked at the slowly flowing water while contemplating the difficult decision to take.
Jayak, a man of stout stature with long hair and sharp eyes, started the conversation. "We have to decide whether we're going to try to go back in time or choose to stay here."
Mado, who was sitting next to him, a poet with a face full of expression, nodded in agreement. "I miss the past, Jayak. However, there are many interesting things in the present. I'm even in love, you know!"
Kunta, who was sitting leisurely while chewing an orange, smiled widely. "And I, my friends, see infinite business opportunities in the future. What if we took this technology to the past and became the richest people there?"
Jayak frowned. "But Kunta, the past is our place, our place of meaning and honor. Do you really want to leave him?"
While they continued to speak, the sun slowly sank on the horizon, emitting a golden orange color that reflected into the river. Among their serious conversations, there was joy in the air.
Kunta, who was always full of bright ideas, laughed cheerfully. "I have a brilliant idea! What if we started the ancient energy stone business from our past?"
Mado laughed at Kunta's idea. "Ancient energy stones? What'sthat?"
Kunta replied seriously, "You know, the stones we saw in the cave? They can be sold as energy boosters. Modern people will be interested!"
Mado rolled her eyes with a smile. "Cunta, it's just an ordinary rock! But who knows, maybe someone believes."
While they were joking, Jayak shook his head. "You two are always entertaining. But we have to focus on this decision. This is no joke."
The atmosphere of the park is getting cooler with a gentle night breeze. The sun completely set, leaving a night sky full of stars. Both sides of the river are filled with glittering street lights, creating a mesmerizing scene in this modern city.
Jayak, while looking at the distance, considered their options. "Maybe we need to find out more about that portal, how to use it. That could be the best solution."
Mado agrees. "Yes, Jayak. In the meantime, I want to stay here for a while. I want to pursue love and happiness in the present."
Kunta smiled with satisfaction. "And I will try this ancient energy stone business. Who knows, maybe I could be the richest conglomerate in the modern world!"
The night deepened, and the three companions continued to speak until the full moon shone brightly in the sky. They know that this decision will affect their entire life, and they must choose wisely.
Mado, once confused and eager to return to her past, feels increasingly drawn to the modern world when she meets Linda. They met in the city library, among the towering bookshelves. Both immersed in the books and stories that are there, they are both like magnets who are attracted to each other.
Their first meeting happened in an unforgettable way. Mado, who wanted to make a good impression on Linda, proposed an idea that might feel a bit strange in the eyes of modern people. She invites Linda to ride a horse in the city park, which she thinks is a romantic experience.
As they arrive at the park, Mado proudly carries a horse bike that she has lent from a friend today. He thought that this would be an incredible moment, but his reaction was very unexpected.
Mado eagerly helps Linda ride on the horse bike, which has enhanced wheels and horse-themed decorations. Linda, an open-minded modern woman, burst into laughter at the sight of this unusual means of transportation.
"Duh, Mado, I've never ridden a horse in a city park before!" linda said with a laugh. "But I have to admit, it's a very unique way to spend an afternoon."
Mado smiled, despite feeling a bit awkward. "I think, in this way, we can feel a little nostalgic and get to know each other better."
Mado and Linda paused under a shady tree and sat on a park bench. Mado felt awkward and tried to find the right topic of conversation. "So, what are you writing, Linda? I know you're a writer."
Linda excitedly talked about her works, and Mado listened enthusiastically. They both found a similar interest in literature and art. Meanwhile, the sun slowly sets behind the city's skyscrapers, creating a colourful skyline.
"The first time I saw you in the library," Linda said, "I felt like a magnet was pulling me to you. Turns out, we have similar interests."
Mado smiled, feeling happy. "I feel it too, Linda. And I'm so glad I got to know you."
They spent the afternoon talking about literature, taking a walk in the park, and laughing together. Mado begins to feel that maybe she doesn't need to rush back to her past. Maybe there's something valuable in the present, like his relationship with Linda.
As the two of them paddle their horse bikes towards sunset, Mado feels that she has found a precious piece of the present, which would probably be a reason for her to stay longer in this world.
On the banks of a quiet river, the three companions, Jayak, Mado, and Kunta, sit under a towering tree. This time, the atmosphere was more tense than before. They have come together to discuss the decision to take: whether they will try to go back in time or stay in the present.
Jayak, with a serious expression attached to his face, started the debate. "We must decide our fate wisely. Each of us has a good reason for our choice."
Kunta, who had always been optimistic about future business opportunities, spoke directly. "For me, the present is a great opportunity. Technology, business, and progress are limitless. Maybe we could be the richest man in the world."
Mado, who had already fallen for Linda, nodded. "I also feel attached to the present. There are many things I learned, people I met, including love. I'm not sure if I'm ready to leave everything."
Jayak, firmly, expressed his view. "I long for the calm and honor of the old days. Life is simple and meaningful. I'm not sure I fit all the hassle in the present."
As the debate heats up, a gray street cat walks in and plays with a Jayak shoelace. At first, Jayak was annoyed and tried to keep the cat away. However, soon he saw how cute the cat was and smiled.
"You guys see this?" jayak said, flirting with his friends. "This cat reminds me of the simplicity of old life."
Mado laughed at the cat's cuteness. "Maybe we need to learn from this cat, Jayak. That happiness can be found in simple things."
Kunta, who was initially serious about business, laughed. "You're right, Mado. Maybe we're too serious about thinking about this."
They continue their debate with a more open mind. Each of them tries to understand different points of view. Mado shows how comfortable she feels in the present, but also respects Jayak's longing for a quiet past.
Kunta, who initially thought only of business opportunities, began to understand the importance of relationships and personal happiness in her life. They talked enthusiastically and argued passionately, but their moods became more harmonious as time went on.
As the moon began to appear in the night sky, they began to see how complex this decision was. One thing they agree on is the importance of understanding the consequences of their choices.
Jayak, who was initially stubborn about going back in time, is now more open to seeing the benefits that may exist in the present. Mado, who initially wants to survive in the present, understands that going back in time also has invaluable sentimental value. Kunta, who was initially obsessed with business, feels that love and social relationships also have an important role in happiness.
That night, they left their seats with deeper thoughts and a better understanding of their choices. The final decision is still not taken, but they agree to continue living their experiences in the present while finding out more about the mysterious cave and how to use it. Carefully, they walk home, knowing that there are no easy decisions in their cross-time adventure.
