- Unknown Passenger: - Ahmad
- Female Officer: - Mimtah
At the international airport, a passenger approaches for his check-in along with other passengers, and he is checked by female officer Mimtah. While checking the unknown passenger's passport, Mimtah notices the person's name is Ahmad. Everything seems fine, but the name of the country on the passport from which the man has come is nowhere to be found on the world map. This seems very strange to Mimtah, so she discusses the matter with the other members on duty for the inspection, and upon review, they find that the passport is not fake, but the name of the country the man has come from is nowhere on the entire map.
After that, Mimtah started to talk to the man about this matter. The man was speaking in English, but his accent was a bit different, and it was also somewhat difficult to understand. The man began by stating his name, which is Ahmad Alejandra, and then he started to narrate an incident that happened to him. Ahmad stated that he was operating a warplane in a war-torn country when the enemy began attacking their warplane, which was destroyed while they were still in it. When Ahmad opened his eyes, he found himself in an airplane in this country. This situation felt very strange to him, and Ahmad himself did not know where he currently was. Therefore, Ahmad is seeking help from Mimtah, so that he can return to his own country, as Ahmad has children and family back there.
Mimtah finds Ahmad's words unbelievable, but nonetheless, Mimtah agrees to help Ahmad and starts researching this matter. Initially, Mimtah takes Ahmad to her house, where she discusses this with her husband. Both Mimtah and her husband begin their research together. To do this, they first interrogate Ahmad with various questions. Ahmad informs them that he comes from a country where there is currently a war, and the people's language there is English. He also mentions that it is Saturday, the year 3061 there. Upon hearing this, Mimtah is extremely shocked that a person has traveled from the future to the past; that means time travel. This seemed almost impossible in reality. So, is it really possible to time travel?
Ahmad began to elaborate that the name of his country is Geoland, but he can't recall what it was called in the past; perhaps he has started to lose some of his memories. After hearing this, Mimtah and her husband began researching time travel, and they discovered that a major meteor shower named Eta Aquariids would occur in May 3061, and it is likely that Ahmad was able to travel to the past because of this meteor shower. While they were able to confirm Ahmad's travel to the past, they were not sure how Ahmad would return. In the meantime, Ahmad suddenly remembered the previous name of his country; it was Bangladesh, a name that had changed due to some war.
Ahmad decided that he would capture images of this country and its people through his camera, and in the future, he would show these images to everyone in his own country. In this way, he believes he can help stop the war in his country, as the situation in Bangladesh will become very dire in the future; the people of his country will start a war among themselves and will be divided in two, resulting in the complete destruction of the country, which must not be allowed to happen. In the past, the people of Bangladesh were united and stood together in all situations. However, the current situation is bad. Hearing this, Mimtaah decided to help her husband Ahmad, and she gave him various photographs, historical artifacts, and some books, which included images and narratives of both present and past Bangladesh. Through this, Ahmad believes he can protect his country in the future.
Ahmad buried all those important pictures and documents in the ground using an iron box. Mimtah and her husband together found a way to send Ahmad back to his country. According to the plan, Ahmad had to land in the sky on a plane during the next meteor shower. As a result, Ahmad could return to his country. They sent Ahmad into the sky on July 18 during the southern delta aquarids meteor shower, and strangely, Ahmad returned to his own country, where he took out the pictures and documents from the iron box and showed them to the people of his country. In this way, the people of his country realized their mistake and stopped fighting among themselves, living peacefully.
