“Ahem” I say.

“Oh. Oh hello” the man returns my handshake. “Isaac Newton. And you are?”

“Turnabout. Professor Turnabout” I repeat.

“And you’re from…”

Oh dear this might get awkward. “Oh from around ” I say trying to keep my voice casual.

Isaac taps his head for a minute. “But I seem to think that you just came down from the sky. Did I see something like that?”

Oh no. Now I’ve had it. If I blow my cover Mishpacha Junior will fire me.

“Yes yes straight down from the sky” I say.

“Like an apple?”
