"so that's what the theory says." Mrs. Brown concluded.

Wow. Never knew astrophysics could be interesting but cosmology was beyond fascinating. Wow. Simply wow. The more I listen to it, the more I am falling for it. Yes cosmology and no, not for professor Brown. She is anything but likeable. She is in her sixties thought looks like an octogenarian, red haired and thin built woman with a shrieking voice. Highly intellectual though.

Any doubts?? She raised her voice.

For any normal human being it would be easy to realize that she meant no more questions but my stupid ass self took quite long to realize.

"I have a question professor" standing up I ask.

She adjusted her spectacles and gave me this you-are-a -piece –of –dead-meat look. Ok. This is going to go wrong.

"Yes Miss Rever, how may I help you" she said honey dripping from her voice

"Miss...Missus I mean professor if the fact that our universe is expanding then it means there is something in which it is expanding. What I mean to say is there must be somewhere some place where universe is expanding. If so it may be also possible that there are many similar universes in that matter." I say it all in one breath.

I am proud of my archeological knowledge. Thanks to gramps and her updates about Vedas. Somewhere in Vedas they said there are a billion universes i.e. it is a concept of multiverse. Almost all statements were proven to be facts. This must be one too.

Not that amusing look again.

"yes miss Rever . What you are saying is in fact the theory of multiuniverse or multiverse. It is popularly supported by many cosmologists. Inter universal matter is similar to that of the antimatter and matter which greater variations and of course the unknown substances. Its existence and growth are still mysterious. However" she paused and looked at me again "there are certain theories that support it. Even there are certain clues for its existence too.

"professor then is there a possibility of life there?" I speak again. Oh stupid me.

Sigh. "Miss Rever, in this vast universe our earth is the only planet with life in THIS solar system; however there are many solar systems in this universe. So possibly life exists in a few of them too." Another sigh "as for those, the one in the other universe, you may call them parallel universe or parallel existence. And before you ask they can be of any dimension, 3 dimensional 4 dimensional or dimensionless without space and time"

Wow. That literally gave me goose bumps.

"Sit down shithead" Janice hissed.

Oh. Was I over excited?? Nay it was just my stupidity acting. Not me. So may be, may be those dreams I get, what if, what if those isn't just dreams but a portal, a mirror to that dimension?

I look at Janice with excitement. She has this go-to-hell look on her face

Okay, got it. Enough with my blabbering. Get your shit together V. You have a whole day to e laughed at; a whole day to daydream.

"Miss Rever." Mrs. Brown's voice echoed in the class "do you know what your name means? It means 'DREAM' you should never stop that. Let your mind run wild, get curious, learn more. Tu n'es jamias trop vieux pour rever" (Trans: you are never too old to dream) she smiled: not so scary cheerful smile. Wow. She actually smiled at me. Okay people everyone repeats 'all hail queen V'.
