Short Story


My E.T. Adventure

Once upon a time, there was a little kid named Luke who liked to go to different places to endure new adventures every day. Despite his young age, he knew how to survive alone and that's why he wasn't afraid.

Furthermore, he liked to meet new people; so, one of his adventures was when he travelled to another planet. When he arrived there, he was found by a family of aliens. Even though they didn’t know him, they decided to warn him that he couldn’t stay there because in case the king of the aliens sees him, he will catch him for making experiments with him. But in that moment he couldn’t return to his planet because his spaceship was damaged by the strong impact when it landed. Therefore, the alien family decided to adopt him until he fixed his spaceship.

The days passed, and he couldn’t repair his spaceship. After one week, when he was trying to repair it, one of the assistants of the king saw him, and told the king about his presence. So, they caught him, and they carried him to the laboratory to make experiments with him. He tried to convince them that he was a  good person indeed, that it didn’t matter that he was different from them, his life was similar to theirs. 


Moreover, he told them that his planet was similar to theirs, they have similar things, he started to tell them all about his life on his planet, and the aliens realized that was true, that his life was similar to theirs! The only difference is that 1 day on that planet, was 1 hour  on his planet. After that, they became friends, and the aliens helped him to repair his spaceship. Thus, he could return home.

When he arrived, he told his parents all what had happened on that wonderful planet. When he told his parents everything, they didn’t believe him, they thought it was all a dream. 

On the other hand, his parents told him that he had a very extraordinary imagination. He showed them the device that the aliens gave to him to be communicated, but they still didn’t believe him, they thought that he invented that to be believed. 

He didn't care that they didn't believe him, because he knew what he had lived and that he could talk with his new alien friends.
