Back From the Future Again

When the space traveler returned, it was already another generation Almost everything that he had known before had disappeared... The house where he lived had a different architecture, the family to which he belonged... all dead... ! A century on earth, had passed...! Things he loved, they weren't there anymore... ! nor even the girlfriend with whom he had made a pact was not waiting for him... She was one of the things that he loved best... the other that could had been unfaithful, it was not...! The returnable coca cola empty hull there it was... intact... with its yellow cap... faithfully waiting just to be replaced for Another returnable full Coca Cola !

That is the way…we cannot return to find what we need or want. I visited my home street after so many years…it was like visiting the future. One road was severely cracked…and where was the pond…I know there was a pond! Turned out it was always private property (they used to let us skate on it) and now there was a big fence that kept it out of view. Great write, Alkas!
