One day there was an #alien that wanted me always to tell it stories. It gave no response, but when i stopped, it got angry and gloomy: this was reaction. Then i knew its problem. An alien had no empathy. It could not feel humans feeling. It only recognized its own '#feeling'. Whenever i run away, it punished me by spying me anywhere I was with its #technology. But, again i told you guys, it had no empathy, no feeling of guilty. What could I do? No advice was useful. It would do whatever it wanted to do. But ...there was a fact that it constantly needed me. I could be such an electricity, a fully charged #battery. My stories were such dirty stories for youngster, so addictive. What could I do? I was nowhere to run. I could not hate it. It could not understand hate feeling, as well as love. I could not kill it. For it was too powerful. In my hopeless #hope I pray: "O, the Alien, may you be human, so that you can feel what I feel, so that when you see water dropping from eyes, it is not water, but tears —drops of feeling."

It was uncomfortable being spied all the time and we knew it. But, what could I do?
Then i thought, "Possibly the alien has no one to talk, no friends, no family." It spied 24 hours.
"Possibly I am a target to be watched. It is such a robot with multiple tasks." 😱
One day I had a brilliant plan. I executed the plan. I caught the #alien red handed spying on me. Then I hammered its head. Its head wasnt like a head, but a box. Each side had an eye. What i didnt understand, it liked my stories, though it had no ears.
To my surprise. When I hammered its head, it changed. It became a head of a cave man. I run very quick, because I was more afraid to see the cave man than the alien.
When I hid behind a building, it was unfortunately behind me. I became shocked again and automatically hammer its body. Guys, its body was cylindrical. Once I hammered the body, it changed into a body of a .....

....... body of Jaguar.
Just imagine, a cave man head and Jaguar body. But the fact was that it was harmless. It did nothing to me. It just want to see me from near and of course listening to my story. It didnt eat, didnt sleep. It just wanted my story.
Moreover, I was tired running and hiding. I went back home, it followed. I was worried that people would see it. But then I notices it was only me that saw it. Luckily i didnt tell anyone. They would think i was halucinated or crazy.
At home i had some coffee and bread. The alien stayed not far from me. Usually it spied me by separating its body into many. But that day it followed me with its whole weird body.
"Should I hammer you again? I cant stand seeing your awful look. Change into something lovely then i can tell you a story."
Suddenly it spinned. Its body was transforming. It was getting higher. It become a normal man with soldier look. I just didnt understand, but at least i could stand seeing such face.
"One day there was an alien that changed into a #soldier..." I stopped my story, because it moved its eyes.
I watched its eyes. Those eyes were alive. Then i said something, "I will call you Cipa."
Oh, it moved its mouth. It smiled. This was crazy 😄. This alien could smile.
"Can you change you look again? Be more #handsome, please."
It changed in a second into a #korean #boyband. Its skin was glowing, its lips were red, its hair was purple.
I smiled. It smiled.
"Cipa is your name " I said. "I like your purple hair."
"Cipa." The alien could say its name.
At least, after this, i didnt tell stories anymore to a stone, a maschine. This alien could say something. This helped much.
It might be some day become a human like what i said in praying.
Then i told it a story. A long enough story. Its eyes gradually closed. Oh, it was sleepy. It had changed into human! 😍
This was good. Besides, i was tired. I would have also some sleep. Hoahmm. Zzzz

The Alien, Cipa was sleeping. Finally i could walk alone without that disturbing maschine from far. It might come from #star, but it might be expelled, because its quality was under standard. Yeah, it wasnt so clever like i thought before.
I had to make another strategy. Yes, i bought a little tortoise. This tortoise would make it busy. It could play with it and i could sleep longer or date with my boyfriend without being spied.
I put the #tortoise in a litle aquarium and beside it. It was still sleeping. I planned to go outside again. I called my boyfriend. He agreed to pick me up. We then enjoyed streetfood for dinner.
I wanted to tell my boyfriend about it, but it was invisible for others. But, i wanted to try to tell and brought him home. I wanted to tell him about it.
We went home. Cipa was still sleeping. Then i wonder, why Cipa slept for long time. I called Cipa,
"Cipa, wake up."
But Cipa stayed still. Meanwhile my boyfriend was amazed. Oh, thank God, he could see Cipa. He was my real soulmate.
"Is this your alien?"
"Yes."
"But he looks like a singer. I cant sleep tonight thinking you are with this boy."
"But it cant feel. It is harmless and will not like me. It is such a robot."
"I will bring him with me "
"But it is heavy. As big as you."
My boyfriend couldnt say anymore.
"But i have an idea. I will ask Cipa to change into a ball."
To be continued part 5
I asked Cipa to change itself into a ball. But the ball suddenly attacked my boyfriend.
"Stop! You, the #alien, stop it!"
The ball then stopped.
I said to my boyfriend, "It is harmful for you. You arent gonna bring it."
Then I said to the ball, "Please copy my feeling of #pain into your system, then listen to my story."
The ball spinned in the air. It was transforming.
I told it a story, "Your way to demand me stories and follow me anywhere is consuming my energy. You rob my privacy. You push me in the corner without having choice. You take away my freedom. I cant live in peace. It gives me pain. Can you feel my pain? Nod if you can feel it now."
The ball nodded.
"What you have been doing is hurting me. Now you can feel the pain of others. So, please go away. Go back to your home. Let me lead my life in peace."
The ball understood. Finally it went away and bring a copy of my pain, my feeling. This was the only way to make it understand. It felt me, so it understood then.
Finally i continued my usual life and i could go dinner with my boyfriend without fear.
