If you'd have one week left on earth what would you do?
Most human beings would live their dream, visit their families or just sit in a corner and cry while eating ice cream.

I know what I would have done if I knew there was only one week left - I wouldn't have changed anything. I enjoyed my life here. I liked human beings, I liked animals, I liked work, I liked their food and so much more. Even though I loved to be on this planet I wouldn't have cried if I have to leave - I would have smiled because I would have known I'm going to see my family again.

I still would have stolen my bow and arrow to make two people fall in love - real love. I didn't regret it, I was rather surprised about myself.

Now let's move on to what happened in my last week on earth - on Monday.

My life had actually been really enjoyable this week but the life of someone else made mine a bit complicated too - and guess what, it was Brea and Olivia again.

Once more they were fighting but this time it wasn't an ordinary fight about random things. This time Olivia didn't want to meet Brea's parents which caused a major fight. An if-nobody-fixes-this-then-we-are done fight.

They hadn't been talking with each other since two days by now and I tried to convince them to have a talk so they could clear everything up but they didn't want to. Sometimes they were really stubborn when it was about making the first step for an excuse but this time they were extremely stubborn.
They even refused to look at each other so I needed to make a plan.

I sat in my living room with my laptop in front of me and searched for "how to make a couple forgive each other". I searched for a long time and always I was disappointed by the results so I shut my laptop close and thought about a simple plan which would work out though.

Finally it was clear to me. I got up from the couch and turned myself invisible for human eyes. Within a second it started at my legs, went up to my hips and afterwards to my head until I was fully invisible.
Afterwards I took a deep breath and concentrated on Olivia to teleport myself to her.

She was at home in the living which was filled with wooden furniture and a lot of plants.
Olivia was sitting on the couch and her glance was fixed on the flat screen TV.

I looked around and a second later I spotted her mobile phone on the dining table. I teleported myself beside the table so I wouldn't make any noise and picked up the phone. It turned invisible as well and afterwards I got back home.

I sat down on the couch while getting visible and opened a chat with Brea on Olivia's phone. Then I started typing.

"Hey! I know you're still mad but can we try to make it up somehow? I know I was wrong and I miss you." I hit send and waited for a reply.

There was silence - for a long time there was only silence until Brea replied "Would you agree on meeting my parents?"

I took a sharp breath. Now I shouldn't mess it up "Let's talk about this in person please."

"Fine. When and where?"

"Tomorrow 1 pm at the Redding's café." I got up from the couch and waited for her last reply which didn't take too long. It was a simple "Okay."

Afterwards I deleted all the messages I just received from Brea and got invisible again to teleport myself back to Olivia's flat. When I arrived there I only put her phone back on the table and afterwards I teleported myself to Brea's flat.

I was standing in the living room and meanwhile Brea was in the kitchen making herself a cup of coffee.
Again I looked for her phone which was laying on the coffee table. I wanted to make a step closer to the table so I could pick up the phone but something was in my way.

I didn't notice that underneath the coffee table a cat was sitting and only its tail was showing and that's what I stepped on.
The cat made a terrifying yowl and sprinted off in the kitchen which made Brea look for her immediately.

She pet the cat and afterwards she walked in the living room to see what happened.
Now I couldn't pick the phone up because she would see it disappear so I just stop there without moving a muscle.

This fu-...furry cat. Yeah, I totally meant to say furry.

Luckily Brea just shrugged and walked back in the kitchen so I could fulfil my plan and took her phone with me to my flat.

At home I did the same as I did before. I texted Olivia saying that I, means Brea, was sorry and I want to talk about it tomorrow.

It took a bit longer to convince Brea but in the end she agreed on meeting up and so I could bring the phone back to its owner.

One last time I teleported myself back home and this time without the phone of anyone else.
I sighed relieved and went upstairs to my bedroom but I didn't go to bed yet. I changed into some sweatpants and a t-shirt - which I usually never did but it was comfortable - and then I made my way back in the living room.

A few days ago I figured out that it was possible to watch movies and TV shows online so that's what I usually did in the evening or at night by now.
I really enjoyed this part of human culture.

I guess if I could have then I would have never stopped watching shows - I totally understand humans at this point.
