"Maybe, you're not!" Ann said amusingly, "Guys, let's leave this topic. It's getting boring, I know Kiko very well. She must be in some personal problem and she might not be comfortable to talk about it".
"Yea, you're right" Cruzal said, "It's not like she's a ghost or a witch herself". Ujjwal laughed, "But she sure does look like one, doesn't she?". Ann was confused, "What are these hitch things now?".
Ujjwal said, "You pronounce every mythical being's name wrong on purpose, don't you?".
Cruzal thought that he managed to explain Ann about witches. Ann was completely lost. To avoid the confusing talk, Ann said, "let's talk about our mission. This is my first expedition, so I don't really know what to do?". Ujjwal said, "You didn't answer my question". "So, how do we operate this ship?".
Ujjwal thought, "She's just skipping my question now".
Cruzal explained Ann that the spaceship is automated to reach the destination but if needed they can fly it manually. Ann asked, "And what's this planet 39gr21?"
Cruzal said that he once went there with Ujjwal and Sap. That planet has many different species but the most prominent are Chepakli and Tilchata. The planet once had great flora but now is a barren land. He continued as he got a bit emotional, "This planet was warm, welcoming and great. I wish - "
He stopped and changed the topic, "Oh! Yeah, I really like Chepakli there, they look awesome!"
"But don't drink them like Kiko" Ujjwal joked.
Ann exclaimed, "You guys know she likes that weird juice or whatever it is, I mean it looks so disgusting! So this planet where those Chepakli come from".
Ujjwal said, "She pronounced this word right!"
Ann added, "By the way, it looks like you've done quite an extensive research on this planet". She giggled as she looked at Cruzal.
Cruzal said, "It's not like that, I know so much because - ". He again stopped to avoid saying more than he needed to.
Ujjwal's sly smile made his voice echo in cunningness, "You didn't tell her, planet 38gr21 was once called Earth".
