THE TIME IN MY HANDS 2 - ANETTE
(All the main characters are over 18, and these stories are figments of my imagination.)
(My language is Spanish and I am not very fluent in English, so I sincerely apologize for any possible errors that may occur.)
(The stories told by the time traveler continue, introducing new characters and historical epochs).
Although according to the calendar on the wall we are on July 2, 2005, just over two weeks since I closed my diary after writing the first entry, actually I have been jumping in time for the last six months, and only today after having left all those involved in this story in their rightful place I have found some time to write, and I think that what happened in these six months may be interesting for those who read this diary.
Diary of a Time Traveler - 2nd Entry - Anette
I've been stranded in the year 2341 for almost two months now, the longest period of time I've spent in my home time since I started working for the Travel Control Center (from now on I'll call it TCC for short) four years ago, and I'm looking forward to some new assignment that will serve as an excuse to jump back in time and return to my base in Venice.
Before I continue with the story itself, I want to explain a few things that may help to understand everything that happens around time travel:
Although I am a TCC technician, my job for that entity basically consists of controlling and cataloging the time portals and preparing the trips that universities and certain authorized companies make to the past; in addition to acting as a guide for a few days for clients who want to visit certain moments in history.
My real job, the one that has made me a very rich person, is for an exclusive group of people who move under the protection of the World Union and use time travel to satisfy their dark fantasies.
At the time of the first diary entry, when I compared this organization with the UN of the 20th century I did not make a very accurate comparison, while the UN was an organization that encompassed all the countries of the world trying to maintain a delicate balance between the different blocks, the World Union is formed by the representatives of a group of companies and corporations that control the economy, trade and communications worldwide and that allow certain freedoms to the governments of the few countries that still exist outside the global control of the organization.
The 24th century society in which I was born, has many similarities with the situations that were lived at the beginning of the 14th century, a completely patriarchal society in which, except for a small elite, women barely have rights, since all of them have been reduced by the laws of female discrimination that were passed 80 years ago.
These laws caused by the changes that occurred a few years before, changes that I will try to explain in other entries in my diary, also influenced time travel, going from being completely free to something totally controlled, which could only be done with the authorization of the new managers of the TCC, who coincidentally were the same as those of the World Order.
Evidently the only authorization needed for such time travel was an abundant bank account, the 'lucky' ones traveled as rich merchants; nobles or religious leaders, enjoying all the luxuries and pleasures of the time.
A few years later, seeing on the one hand the economic potential that certain types of travel could bring, and on the other hand an opportunity to fulfill their darkest fantasies, the managers of the TCC incorporated time travel into the university curriculum and allowed access to women between the ages of 18 and 30. What these women didn't know was that their time travel would turn into a nightmare of bondage and submission.
Today, almost seventy years later, little has changed for women, although a large number of them travel voluntarily to live the fantasies of slavery imbued in their minds by years of submissive education, others do so deceived and without having any idea of what awaits them.
Having finished the explanations that I have considered appropriate to better understand the historical era from which I come, I continue writing about what has happened in recent months.
I am so bored of the wait, that I am considering, despite the risk involved, to use the jumping device I have built myself without the knowledge of the TCC; luckily before I have to make that decision, I receive a call from one of my clients for a meeting.
As I have done on previous occasions, I go to the mansion that my client, Mr. Walter Gates has in the Manhattan Beach area; as soon as the butler receives me, he escorts me to the pool area where Mr. Gates is waiting for me sitting with two young women kneeling naked at his feet.
As I approach my host I watch him carefully and smile at the thought of all that can be achieved with money; from what I know of Mr. Gates, he is over 80 years old, it is even said that he was one of the founders of the World Union, but the man sitting in front of me looks just over 40 years old, with a toned and muscular body, only his almost white hair does not match that figure.
Mr. Gates stands up when he sees me arrive and walks towards me, I hold out my hand to greet him, but he surprises me by giving me a warm hug, 'Welcome back Jess, we have done too much business together, and enjoyed the same women to go around with formalities now, you can call me Wally;' he says as he breaks the hug.
'Whatever you wish Mr....' I reply stopping immediately before continuing to speak, 'As you wish Wally.'
'Sit down, pour yourself a drink, and choose your company;' Wally tells me pointing to the two girls at his feet, 'I think you know both of them well.'
I look at the two young ladies and smile at their submissive pose, the girls are the two latest acquisitions I have made for Wally, for which he paid me a significant amount of money.
