Read Izzy & Eliza...an alien tale Page 7


  ~~YAKKING FROM YARN~~

  Suddenly things are getting a bit more complicated; with two females tugging on Izzy's heart strings rather than the one. That Thilillian Yangsley certainly added more heat to the fire. I'm Yarn, in case you've forgotten the name of your narrator. I forget things all the time.

  More to the point, Thilillian is a smart girl, if not a tad over confident. Reminds me a little of…I can't remember who she reminds me of, but I like her. Even if she is sneaky; spying over Mr. Seebot's shoulder like that, naughty girl. Yes, reminds me a bit of me, spying on her.

  Too bad the feisty girl will be far away on her own Goodwill Project with Oseca, studying the Juniper Colony on Footfall Freighter for a year. Then again, who knows what will happen in a year?

  Say, did Thilillian seem a little jealous of our earth girl, Eliza, or am I just imagining things again? Like that time I imagined that my long lost love Vladimir actually did love me as well. Like I imagined he would meet me at the train station at midnight so we could run away together?

  He never showed and I ended up getting caught by the Broshinka brothers who were not happy that I was leaving town with the incomparable Serengeti Sapphire. I found it first!

  Word to the wise, you don't want to mess with those boys. I ended up on a Shilka Beast farm on some dilapidated hunk of rock with mud up to my thighs.

  I wonder if the Klesian people will think Izzian imagined the whole sign language thing. Think he will even tell anyone that Eliza knows he's watching her from afar? I wonder if anyone would believe him if he did.

  Let's not forget to mention the fact that Izzian practically asked Thilillian out on a date and she didn't even answer him. Maybe she didn't hear him, what with all the telescope reprogramming and all. Either way, I have a feeling Thilillian is quite calculating with more than just the Al203 telescope and Izzy may be in way over his head when it comes to that girl Thil.
