PenaBlog

It is midnight. On the floor someone is making a great hullabaloo. It starts knocking at the door. Pena tries to ignore the noise and closes his eyes. After a couple of seconds the door is blown away and the Kepler comes in.

“Pena! Pena! Wake up!” he shouts and starts shaking Pena.
“Hey, why are you here? I have told you not to come here, unless something ultra-mega important is up, haven’t I?”
“That’s true. Something important is going on. I have stolen the most delicious sunflower seed. And I thought, that I should share with you…”
“What did you do? Sunflower seed? Let me see it!”

With a large smile on his face grabs Kepler into his left pocket. Then he grabs into his right pocket. The smile on his face fades away and his face turns sad. In desperate moves he is searching the other three pockets. Nothing. He starts crying.

“Hey! What’s wrong? Have you already eaten it?” asks Pena.
“I think I lost it in Alaska”
“In Alaska?”
“I think so… We have to fly to Alaska. Luckily I have my parachute with me. Let’s go!”
“But I don’t have any parachute nor a plane nor a flying carpet.”
“But you have your mattress. Hurry up!”
“My mattress doesn’t fly!”
“It flies! Just concentrate and it will fly.”

Saying that he grabs Penas mattress and pulls it. He runs downstairs dragging the mattress behind him. He opened his parachute and started flying. After a couple of seconds Pena jumps on his mattress and… nothing.

“It does… fly”

The mattress starts flying very fast. In couple of minutes they were over the ocean and in another four minutes they reached Alaska. They landed on the snow. Pfuu, it was cold. Kepler was a little bit happier.

“I know where the sunflower seed is. Follow me!”

After 1 km they stopped. Kepler looked at the sky.

“After I stole the sunflower seed, I took a horse to come to you. And for one second I looked at the sky. The horse stumbled and I remember that on the sky there was exactly one cloud… like this one” he said pointing to the only cloud in the sky.

Kepler started digging. They dug a huge hole. And they found it. There it was. The most delicious sunflower seed. Kepler was aglow with happiness. He took the seed, broke it and gave Pena one half of it. Kepler ate it. Pena put the sunflower seed on his tongue and started chewing.

“Bleah! Bleah…” He spat the sunflower seed.
“Mine is rancid!”
