Atlas on Earth [OUTDATED]

Chapter 3 Meet the Randas

I sat down at the smooth, clean table and watched a stressed looking woman rush across the room checking on a metal, cylinder shaped thing over a fire and a thing the spurted water out of tiny holes when you pulled a lever. I just stared at the roof for about a few minutes. "Hey mom." Said a manly voice. I looked back down and saw a tall, handsome, coal black haired, bright, green eyed boy. The lady turned "Hi sweetie!" She said with a smile. He sat in the seat next to me. "So how was the dance honey?" The lady asked "Mom I don't like her" he said "Awww don't be like that little honey bun" she said with googoo eyes. I blushed feeling a tiny bit out of place. " Mom the only reason I went to this dance was because you were all oh honeyyyy gooo or you'll miss out!" He said angrily "Ok fine fine just forget the topic" she said calmly and waved a dismissive hand at him. His sad face made me feel sympathetic. I decided to talk to him. "Umm hi.." I said. He looked at me and just turned away again. Rude. I thought. The girl came back downstairs with a towel and sopped up all the water rolling down her streaks of brown hair. "Is Dylan pestering you?" The girl asked me. "Shut up Avalon" Dylan murmured. "Scuse me?" Avalon replied defensively. "You know what I-" I interrupted Dylan "NO HE'S NOT PESTERING MEEE!!" I yelled trying to end the fighting. Sure enough it did. Then the lady served us plates of something that looked delicious. "Thank you Mrs. um..-" "You can call me Mrs. Randa, dear" she cut in. "O..ok M..mrs R..anda" I replied. I used the spiky thing and ripped off an piece of the brown, crispy lump of something. And took a bite. "OH MAH GOSHHH DIS IS SOO GUUUUDDD" I exclaimed. Mrs. Randa blushed. "Th..thank you dear." she said gratefully. Avalon and Dylan munched loud and angrily. I turned forward to see Mrs. Randa staring that same look Avalon made. It was no doubt they were mother and daughter. "So, What's your name, dear?" She asked. This was one thing I wasn't expecting. "Oh my name? Heh.. heh you don't wanna know that!" I said trying to laugh the topic off. "Oh of course I wanna know, Hun!" She exclaimed. Humans sure are relentless. "Pshhh my name why do you wanna know that!?" I said trying to laugh it off again. "Oh cmon dearie tell me!" She said encouragingly. Aliens were never given names!! I just tried to muster up a name, and out of the blue one popped up. "My name is Atlas." I said boldly.
