Back
Someone knocked lightly on the door, "Hello, anyone home?" The door creaked open. "Hello I'm a friend of your father's, well... Was. That's actually why I'm here. I would like to deliver his will to you. I'm not sure if he meant you or any of your siblings but you are the only sibling who spoke to him after turning eighteen, other than a criminal's one phone call. Anyways, have a nice evening!" He ran down the stairs like a little boy. And didn't even close the door! They opened the envelope and gently pulled out the paper. On it read: Greetings fellow human, I think? If you are reading this I have passed on to the stars above. Seeing you as having no meaning to life, like you said in your last letter to me. I'm giving it a meaning. I'm passing on my coffee shop to you. The Milky Way Cafe. PS: Do not pet Connie. It deeply discomforts her. PPS: Close on the eclipse. Nothing good comes from it. Signed, ☆EARL☆. The page was covered in UFOs, aliens, and stars. I guess there's no harm in looking. They signed on to their computer and Googled 'Milky Way Cafe'. It was filled with kind comments like "The owner is so nice, FIVE STARS" "the Gemini Jelly Rolls are delicious! I can't wait to try the Scorpio Swiss Roll, FIVE STARS" "BD62BF8bd7br, FOUR ½ STARS"... Let's ignore the last one.
☆ONE WEEK LATER☆
Their car hit a stop in front of a Cafe in a town they had never even heard of. The sign on the window was a UFO with the words CLOSED messing written on it. They entered the Cafe, flipped the sign and stood behind the counter waiting. Alone? Not alone. A blue-ish black cat with white vein looking patterns jumped down from under a chair and ran into the kitchen. Earl did mention a 'Connie' that shouldn't get pet. They watched Connie open a cupboard with her paws then run back to the table with a bag of cat food. "Hello? Earl?" Finally a customer that's human! In walked a light green skinned creature with antenna and four arms. The creature generally looked like a child. (A very weird one) Hello Ea- Oh hi there, what's your name! I'm used to Earl around so I mistook you for him, HAHA! That's funny cause when Earl was first here I called him DAD cause they kinda sound alike! My dad kicked me out the house cause I talked too much. OMG am I talking too much?" "Kinda-" "Anyways, back to my entire life story up until now. So when I was born my antenna were just the size of itsy bitsy dandelions. I L♡VE DANDELI♡NS!!! Back to baby me. I remember the first time I crawled on the roof, I have a very good memory, wait... What was I talking about?... ANYWAYS! Can I get a Capricorn Cappuccino?" "Do you really need caffeine?" "That's actually what my dad asked me when I drank twelve cups of coffee in one sitting. So can I have one?" "Okay... Are you going to a cosplay-con, are there any alien shows?" "What's a cosplay cop" ... "So-" "PLEASE BE QUIET! I-..." "sorry..." the girl started toying with her hairclip, the snapping was irritating but she was clearly upset about the whole yelling at her to shut up thing."Here's your drink... You never said your name..." "I'm Leanne... Sorry for talking alot..." she put her hairclip back on. "it's fine, it's my first day here..." "She doesn't even know I can talk yet! Oops, now she does." They turned to Connie who had an uncanny, teethy smile plastered across her face. "WHA-" "Oh, you didn't know Connie could talk?"
