When eccentric barista-cum-inventor Quinia Schmul casually tampers with time while babysitting, she discovers some disturbing truths about time looping and, as it were, spaghetti.Come along on a new kind of time travel adventure - a dizzying ride filled with coffee, domestic disasters, and logical paradoxes in this tongue-in-cheek time travel short story of 9,400 words.
Philosophy student Rand wants nothing more than to finish studying for his final exam, but his girlfriend has other ideas. Quinia is working on a time looping mechanism designed to give everyone more free time. He predicts disaster, and of course he's right, but what he didn't expect is the scale of the problem and how reality can seem quite so skewed.
