It was a usual morning in India. The monsoon shower had just got over and it was starting to get sunny. A small part of the rainbow was visible in the sky. A child who was waiting for his school bus along with his mom looked at the rainbow in awe. Dogs were sleeping near newspaper shops. Buses and auto rickshaws were honking loudly. Vegetable vendors were neatly laying the fresh vegetables down.
A spaceship was traveling far away in space. It started from the moon of Saturn and was on it's way to Mercury and back. That morning, the spaceship happen to cross Earth and Brinkley (one of the aliens in it) was awestruck at the beauty of our planet. Shades of blue with a hint of green and white and brown! He instantly felt a deep desire to land on Earth, if just for a while. He spoke to the others and after a long discussion they said they would drop him off on Earth and let him explore. They would be back after some days. Brinkley was very happy.
After a few hours, the spaceship hit Earth's surface and Brinkley was dropped off here. Due to the fact that he belonged to an advanced alien race, he didn't have issues adjusting to Earth's atmospheric changes. He landed near Hyderabad and in a while reached old Hyderabad. He looked quite different from us, he was pale green in color, was a little shorter that human beings and had very deep eyes. While most people looked at him and passed by, no one really came to speak to him. He was excited as he was on a totally new planet but he also felt a little lost.
After he walked for a while, he reached a shop where people were sitting and eating. He saw mostly groups of people, and wondered where to sit. He spotted a boy who was sitting alone and he went to him. The boy looked a little sad and depressed. When he first saw Brinkley, he was amazed. He wasn't scared but he was very curious. Brinkley and he spoke and in some time they seemed to have become friends. Brinkley said he had a few days on our planet and he wished to enjoy himself.
The boy told him a few thing that he could think of.
1. Try the masala chai in a road side shop
2. Have pani puri from any small chat shop
3. Make a visit to a nice city like Rajasthan and sit on the camel there.
4. Sit on a gaint wheel
5. Go to an ocean that isn't crowded
6. Visit Ooty in the toy train.
Brinkley had a long list now. He knew that he would have a great time. He asked the boy to join him and both of them started off with their list. His advanced powers meant that he could travel across cities at the speed of light. He didn't need a train or bus (how cool is that!). He took the boy along.
After his holiday on Earth, Brinkley felt like a new being. He had made a friend on Earth, seen some places, listened to the sound of the ocean waves, tried some yummy food, and also done some shopping. He bought himself a kurta and mundu. Brinkley's spaceship came to take him back after some time. Brinkley left with a heavy heart but one that was filled with many memories.
He also took with him a huge box of pani puris for his friends in the spaceship.
