Chapter 1
Sam goes out from the house, holding a watering can. He goes to the sunflowers and waters them, while Cindy is watering the flowers inside. They go to the kitchen at the same time, pour out the water in the sink and high five each other.
"Great job!"
They go to their bedroom. Cindy reads a book while Sam listens to a pop song with his headphones. But they don't see that a green light comes through the ceiling. It's an alien. The aliens' soul comes into Sam, and the alien disappears. Suddenly, Sam's eyes get black for a second, but then he gets his normal eyes back. He starts to nod to the music. Cindy sees that.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm listening to the song. I get space vibes from it."
"What do you mean?"
"I live in space."
"What are you talking about?"
Sam pauses the music.
"I'm an alien."
Cindy starts to laugh.
"Good joke, Sam."
Sam shakes his head.
"It's not a joke! I don't even know what your name is..."
"Take a guess!"
"Zoraida?"
Cindy looks impressed.
"No, it's Cindy. Wow, your acting skills are great!"
Sam starts to talk in a robotic voice.
"Can we go out for a walk?"
Cindy looks shocked and scared.
"Wow... so, you really are an alien?"
Sam nods, slowly.
"But... What happened to my boyfriend?"
Sam talks normally again.
"I came into his soul to listen to the music. I've never heard such beautiful music in my entire life... Your boyfriend is in my body now, in space, probably in the spaceship I live in."
"But... How did you get here?"
"I ran away from my family, to see how people on earth had it, without their knowledge. I am the first alien on the planet to escape my family. I miss them, already..."
Cindy shakes her head, slowly.
"I'm so confused..."
Cindy goes out of the room and closes the door. She goes to the living room and sit on the sofa. Sam goes out of the room, and to the hallway. He looks at the jackets and shoes on the hat rack.
"Good!"
He puts his blue jacket and white shoes on, opens the door and goes out.
The sun is very bright to him. He holds his hands for his eyes while he goes to the garden.
"Sunshine? It's so bright..."
He walks around but doesn't see anything, so he falls into a bush. Sam hears a voice from a neighbor.
"That's my flower bush!"
Sam goes up from the bush and takes his hands off his eyes.
"The sunshine is too bright..."
"Not for me. You should put some sunglasses on, that should solve your problem."
"Good to see that everyone is so nice here on earth."
The neighbor looks at Sam, wondering, and goes away. Sam turns around. He sees better in the sunlight than before.
"What...?"
Sam goes in to the house again.
"Hello?"
Cindy doesn't answer. She stares frightened at the TV that changes channels by itself.
"What is happening!?"
Sam goes to the living room and sees the TV.
"Wow... It's beautiful. I have never seen anything as cool as this TV."
Cindy stares shocked at Sam.
"But what about me?"
Cindy looks neutral again.
"Oh... I forgot that you're an alien now. Or is it your acting that has become better? You weren't this good at acting before you pretended that you were an alien."
"What...? I'm not acting. I'm an alien. I swapped souls with your boyfriend to see how it feels to live a life as a human."
Cindy takes a deep breath.
"This can't be true... I'm dreaming."
Cindy pinches herself in the arm.
"No! It's not a nightmare."
"Don't be afraid of me. I look just like you. Right now."
"Ehh... Okay. You're Sam and I'm Cindy. And I think you're playing a prank on me."
Sam shakes his head.
"No, I'm not."
