Future Glasses
Meilin had everyday glasses, but she also owned a special pair of spectacles. She had found them at a clothing swap that her mom had taken her to at a community centre gym. Normally, Meilin disliked these events. While other people were trading clothing, she could never find anything she liked.
On this day, however, she saw a forest-green box with a few pairs of glasses in it. One particular pair stood out—the ones with the purple frames. She tried them on and was surprised that they fit so well. She looked around, noticing that the prescription seemed to match her eyes.
Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed some movement and turned to see an old lady trip on another woman’s bags that were blocking the aisle. The older lady fell to the ground, grabbing her knee in pain. Meilin blinked and time seemed to go backwards. The older lady got up, the bags returned to their place in the aisle and then she walked backwards up the aisle. Once she got to the beginning of the aisle, time began at the regular pace. It was like someone had pressed the rewind button on a video!

It was a test she walked in the class room and put on her glasses she saw that she would get the worst grade possible and saw all the correct answers and she copied it, when the results were back she got the best score ever she was laughing with joy and her mother too!The glasses were really useful in her life and she got chosen for the next president because of her kindness and her grades.
just like that day in the shop, she had saved many people. By the end of the day she must have saved at least 20 people. She was also wondering “What is up with these glasses?” So right after school she told her mum that she was going to the park with her friends for a bit, but she actually went to her local optical shop and asked the worker there about the glasses. She let the worker, whose name was Bella, examine the glasses. She explained to the worker what happens when she puts on the glasses. She even let the worker look through the lens of the glasses. Just then someone just outside the shop had tripped over the curb while walking towards the shop. He got up and looked down at his arms and legs. He had multiple scratches and bruises started to appear.The worker then took off the glasses and told Meilin to leave her shop. She said Meilin had wasted her time and now had to go. Meilin left the shop surprised. How come the glasses had not worked on Bella?
