chapter 5

I really enjoyed Mark's company as he toured me around the area. I guess I had already earned myself a friend in this unknown place.
It was fun getting to familiarize myself with everything with him by me. This place seemed to be having people who were super United.
This was unlikely. We never shared so much love and togetherness back on Earth. Yes,Earth,this was a place miles away from home.
At school we were always taught that no planet could sustain life and just minutes ago I'm made aware of my location on planet Jupiter. And further more,I'm so much alive and kicking,and breathing too.
For a moment I wondered how many lies the stupid education fed us. Did they even know they were total lies..?? Maybe the researchers we had so much faith in and exalting them as ' scientists ' were stupid after all and decided to come up with theories of their own since they weren't capable of doing their job. Or maybe they knew the truth and just decided to hide it from the world....

We paid a visit to their conference building where I was informed that their rules were made and formulated right there. The butterfly patterns and pure white paint never left our view. For sure it created uniformity alongside the fact that the residents wore similar attires,but I wasn't stupid not to realise that there was a reason
behind all that.
I would just get the answers to my questions soon enough.
The conference building was where the royalties together with other law officials worked hand in hand to make a better kingdom.
I was really anxious to meet the royalties especially after Mark had kept informing me of how the queen was the kindest being there was in Jupiter.

"She'll be very happy to see you,"Mark caught me off guard.
"Who?"
"The queen of course,"I wondered why so especially since I was just an earthly commoner so I didn't hesitate to ask.
"Why would she be? Is there anything too special about me? I mean,you just kidnapped me and I'm sure we're not old time acquaintances...or are we..?"
he just let out a soft chuckle but never answered.
I swear I never like my questions being left unanswered but anyways,I couldn't just start making demands on a foreign land.
After the tour that seemed long enough our two hours were finally slipping off. I couldn't lie I was a bit frustrated not to have more time with this exploration but I had to be home too.
I wondered for a while if informing my parents would be a good idea,but I shook the thought off. Maybe they would think I'm insane and won't believe me.
I inquired from Mark whether this trip of ours would be more often and to my satisfaction,it would be.
"You just have to wait for me to snap and you'll know that it's time.."
"I'm hoping next time you'll try to be a bit soft on me,"it's never funny having the kidnap thought wondering what a total stranger could do to you anyways.
"I think I'll take that into consideration,"he said muttering almost to himself.
I was growing to like this stranger,I couldn't believe that we could get along when we just met yet I kept shoving everyone from school away. It was just unlike me but I just had a feeling of openness and safety for the short time we'd spent together.

I wasn't shocked at all when Mark led me to what appeared to be a space ship. After all,how could we have travelled here in the very first place?
I couldn't believe it however when it disintegrated and in split seconds we were at our backyard,back at home. I guess I had a lot to learn then.
After I bid Mark goodbye I stepped off and watched the ship disintegrate in to thin air again.
Having too much for a day,I was set to prepare dinner.
It was the least I could do for my parents who I was sure would be exhausted by the time they were home.
As I awaited them I got my books and tried to get myself off today for a while.
So much had happened and I wasn't even sure how I should go about with that.
The dreams I had had some days ago started haunting me all the same.
Maybe they were just nightmares..or maybe they had a meaning and it was up to me to find out.
For a second I wondered whether they had something to do with today's encounter but it couldn't.
One thing was for sure,the dreams would symbolize something negative,yet today had just brought out it's best.
Maybe there was something more about today,maybe there was more to Jupiter....

I'm trying to recollect my ideas for the book and I hope you bear with me for keeping you waiting. Anyways,lots of love😘
