A knock came at the door of his office and Shel opened
it. Lisa walked in looking very pretty with her hair in two braids and
wearing a faded pink dress.
“Sit down.” Said Shel gesturing towards a chair by the
fire, he took a seat opposite her. “Well,” He said impatiently.
“What’s the earth-person like?”
“She’s completely and totally wonderful and I can’t
bear the thought of losing our friendship.” Lisa burst out.
“What are you talking about?” Asked Shel, trying to
sound reassuring. “Do you really think that she won’t like it?”
“No, I think she’s going to love Cuńa. But even so,
she’ll still almost definitely be mad at me for doing this.”
“Nonsense!” Said Shel. “She’ll be delighted that you
cared about her enough to risk your friendship for something that will
make her happy.”
“No she won’t! She’ll be furious with me for tricking
her.” Said Lisa raising her voice. She sighed. “But anyways, back to
what you asked me. What’s she like? She’s kind of attractive in her
own way, and she absolutely loves the solar system which is why I
brought her up here. She’s just a tad on the untidy side but she is
very artistic.” Said Lisa. “But now, we have more important things to
discuss.”
“What could be more important than discussing the
earth-person?” Shel asked.
“This is about the earth-person; by the way, her name
is Hannah. But anyways, I got her to come with me because I told her
that we were going to a party. Now she still thinks that and I don’t
know how to break the ice on her.”
“Well, we need to think of the best way possible that
won’t enrage her too much at first.” Said Shel.
“I know and I’ve tried to think of a way but I can’t.
I mean maybe I should just tell her.”
“Lisa,” Said Shel quietly.
“What?”
“If you tell her yourself she’ll think that this was
all your fault. I’m the one who sent you down there and when you drop
the bomb on her, you won’t be alone.”
“Thank you,” Said Lisa hugging him. “Well, I’d better
be off, bye.”
“Bye” Shel said. And she walked out the door.
