Shocking Journey of life! 

My day at school was very tiring and after reaching home, I just slept for a quick nap. When I woke up, it was the year 2100!

My bed was surrounded by a capsule with several screens and gadgets. I was shocked and terrified and it took time for me to understand in case, this was a reality or I was still dreaming.

Pinching myself confirmed that I was in the year 2100, as shown on a strange calendar screen, with no one around me. I got up from the bed and peeped out of the window, to get another shock when I saw that I was flying in the air with my room like a capsule.

Suddenly a big screen popped up in front of me and I was glad to see my mother. She politely said, “Hi Divdeep, hope you had a refreshing sleep.” Though there were 1000 questions in my mind, I just asked, where are you, Mommy? Her answer amazed me again when she politely replied, ” I came for urgent work at Jupiter, and will be back by Dinner time”.

My prolonged silence could have indicated to her that I was still sleepy and hence she switched off her screen with a quick Goodbye! I was scared and hungry when a box gradually rolled in front of me. It looked like doughnuts with ice. Assuming that I have to live in the current circumstances, I started eating the horribly tasting doughnuts that were more like medicine for fever. Frankly speaking, the ice was strawberry flavoured and tasted much better.

My room was full of screens and gadgets. As I am an explorer, I tried to play around with a joystick, but when my room jolted like an earthquake, I refrained from touching anything else.

My next 1 hour was spent just sitting in a place, waiting for the next surprise. When nothing came in, I stood up and again peeped outside the window to see another shocking scene. In my capsule, I was flying amongst several Earth-like planets. Though I could not see the Sun, the view was illuminated by the colourful lights of the stars.

A strange-looking display in front of me stuck 8 and prompted me to press a button to open the door. So here comes a sigh of relief, my loving mother! She entered my capsule, with a lovely smile as always, dressed up in strange metallic clothes. She hugged me and I just made that hug tighter and longer with a silent smile and a bit of a cry.

My mother asked, “Divdeep, is everything ok?” I kept my questions aside and just asked how was her day and where is Papa? She replied, that the last time she spoke to him, was an hour ago and he was still on his way from Pluto. I just laughed at this unbelievable fact and a few minutes later, I  saw my father with a packet of strange-looking objects. We three engaged in a long family hug and the night started with a discussion on my experiences throughout the day, which was quite reassuring conversation, till I slept again!
