"The wishes more estranges are of the space"
He was
setting, observing silently from a spaceship to race human an all the others
lives in the Earth, but in special the animals that walking. Whatever could understand
is why they could walk and he not.
-Why I can’t
walk? - He asked
-you can
never Otelo, you are an octopus. – responded his friend Ozy.
-¡Yes I know¡,
but if I have eight forelegs. Why I can’t walk? - spoke Otelo.
-Look
Otelo, we are a breed superior of planet octopotus and come from a galaxy distant,
I think that like a civilization we have to move and leave the things antiquates,
why walk when you could swim so fast and hide in a little bottle?-responded
Ozy.- anyway since
that you started to look at the animals and people in the Earth you not
stop of think about of walk.
-You know this
not true, besides we have much family en the seas and the oceans is not it? Maybe
one day decide to visit. - Otelo closed the theme.
Days after
otelo decide travel to the Earth without ozy. Even though stay few days in the sea,
in the house of the aunt Concha Pretravic.
To get the sea
greet his aunt with the way more typical of the planet octoptus, with a hug of eight
arms.
-aunt I come
to ask an advice.
-Ohh my dear
nephews tell me what your problem.
-lately, I want
leave this arms and walk, like the others animals.
-Ummm I see…
I this case you have to travel to Africa when the elephants, and look to the matriarch
Tachulu and ask two wishes.
-I do aunt,
thank you very much, I love you.
When Otelo
came to Africa saw the herd of elephants, and a group more little was guarding
to the matriarch Tachulu, one old woman very noble and loved by all for everything,
not only for her wisdom also for her
personality.
- Matriarch
Tachulu I am …
-I know who
you are son of ocean close to me.
Otelo close
her with the bubble of water that warning.
-I know what
you want son…but tell my why? And that is of heart.
-I want
walk…always I liked the idea of walk touch of ground with my fingers or maybe
legs and move.
-okay... I
see and hear you heard you heart that you intention are good, but you will have
to help me.
- Whatever matriarch.
-fifth of
my elephants want to remember the times when the world was more beautiful and
calm and we the elephants we were the big mamuts, help me to remember one way make them
more happy for one day. You have only one day for find an answer.
Otelo think
all the day but not find any answer, when missing fifteen for to be completed
the day, Otelo remember that his aunt say something about the two wishes of the
matriarch.
- Matriarch
I know how converts the elephants in mamuts.
-Son always
I knew you would, but you delay so mucho. However tell me what is you which.
-I which
that the elephants become in mamuts and also I which walk.
When began
the change, the matriarch said that the whishes is only for a day. Otelo think that
is ok because he loved be an octopus.
Otan awakened,
and he smelled a fragrance of flowers, and he saw the five mamuts, with gigant
steps, also he saw that he had four legs and long thick fur, and he knew that he
was a mamut.
When everything
finishes Otelo tanked for the wishes and he want for the space.
Watching
from the most distant of the space Otan still looking the Earth and again Ozy
appeared.
- You still
have the crazy idea of walk?
-No, I realize
that to many years I walk.
change the word "in special" ---- specially
ReplyDelete"you can never Otelo" ---- you never could do it otelo
"spoke Otelo" ------ answered otelo
"galaxy distant"---- remember that the adjetive precedes the noun "distant galaxy "
"you not stop of think" you can´t stop thinking
