The Language of Stars That evening, the sky was clear and wide. Rii’Eren led us to the top of a gentle rise where the stars shimmered like scattered diamonds.

Conversations With A Space Alien - Part Six

Into the Observer’s World The next morning, I awoke with a sense of purpose stronger than any chore list. I barely heard Dad’s call about milking schedules as I raced outside.

Conversations With A Space Alien - Part Five

Mr. R Appears Late that night, long after the barn owls settled into their perches, sleep eluded me. The orb’s pale glow still danced behind my eyelids. I crept from my bed, careful not to wake my parents, and padded down the hall in my bare feet. Old Blue glanced up as I creaked open the back door... Sign in to see full entry.

Conversations With A Space Alien - Part Four

The First Contact The next evening, anticipation buzzed through every nerve in my body. After supper, Tommy and I tucked our essentials into our rucksacks—flashlights, signal mirrors, a thermos of lemonade, and I grabbed my trusty bolt-action BB gun.
