Si Timey Tommy ay isang mabait na batang orasan na mahilig tumulong sa iba upang malaman ang tamang oras. Isang araw, habang naglalakad siya sa parke, may nakita siyang isang batang nagngangalang Lia na nalilito sa kanyang orasan. "Timey Tommy, paano ko malalaman kung anong oras na?" tanong ni Lia. Ngumiti si Timey Tommy at sinabi, "Madali lang ‘yan! May dalawang kamay ang orasan. Ang maikling kamay ay para sa ORAS, at ang mahabang kamay ay para sa MINUTO!" Ipinakita ni Timey Tommy ang kanyang sariling mukha na hugis-orasan. Ang maikling kamay niya ay nakaturo sa 8, at ang mahabang kamay niya ay nakaturo sa 12. "Kapag ang mahabang kamay ay nasa 12, ito ay tinatawag na ‘O’clock’! Ibig sabihin, ang oras ay 8:00!" paliwanag ni Timey Tommy. "Ah! Kaya pala! Kapag ang maikling kamay ay nasa 3 at ang mahabang kamay ay nasa 12, ibig sabihin ay 3:00!" tuwang-tuwang sagot ni Lia. "Tama! Ngayon, handa ka nang malaman ang tamang oras!" sabi ni Timey Tommy. Mula noon, hindi na nalilito si Lia sa pagbabasa ng orasan. Lagi niyang naaalala ang sinabi ni Timey Tommy: “Ang maikling kamay ay para sa oras, at ang mahabang kamay ay para sa minuto!” ________________________________________
