“Connecting Flights”
The Story The Passengers Created on the Airplane
”Once upon a time there was a woman who had lunch in the park. She was on vacation. This was the first vacation she had ever taken. And she was looking for the best meatball sub in America. Her first stop was NY.
I’ve rarely flown, but getting on this small plane has been unexpectedly ok. Hope to make it back to St. Louis.
I’m not sure NYC is the best place for great meatballs – certainly for meatheads!
She hopped in a cab to little Italy to see her cousin.When she arrived in Little Italy, she saw a parade and joined one of the bands.
Unfortunately, not knowing how to play an instrument or dance got her sided/sized out right away. But not before meeting this amazing person. This person stood out to her. Among the hoards of people, she walked by during the parade, this individual caught her eye. He was tall, dark hair and had a NY Yankees ball cap on. He was alone, and emotionless, surprisingly calm. You could tell he wasn’t a Native New Yorker.
He was from Mars, really. He came from the red planet, disguising himself as a fellow human. Little did people know, he had blue blood running through his veins and a cure for all of the terrible diseases plaguing Planet Earth!
He asked her if she would go with him to watch a Broadway show. She said she would if he would donate some of his blue blood and get her a meatball sub!
The martian code strictly stated that absolutely no relationship was allowed during a mission on Earth. They were supposed to observe human behavior in order to plan a potential future invasion.
But XVIST didn’t care about the protocols, he felt a special connection with this human woman. A weird feeling that he never experienced before. The feeling of knowing this lady for years whereas she was a complete stranger. Was it what humans call love?”
