The alien finishes his third hot, sweet coffee and curses the system for sending him here. But this is his chosen punishment, his burden. His body is assimilating the numerous brutal and reckless indulgences. When it nears the end, he could leave and go back home. But first, another delicious bun and coffee.

I never thought about aliens and what they like, but I enjoy "knowing" that they appreciate a good cup of coffee and pastry.
ReplyDeleteTamara: I think anywhere you go, any being would enjoy a good snack.
