Royal Afternoon



My name is Milly, I was born in a factory, so as my siblings, but my parents were from the rich and a royal family back from England, so I got the privilege of having the family name as Royal… when we were kids me and my sister Molly were very naughty and curious to go out and see how it would look like and play there, but we were kind of restricted to get ourselves accustomed to external world.

Our dynasty or probably I could say it as the species to which I belong had an utmost fear of any water(basically any liquid) and air… we love getting suffocated and chocked up, stacked up etc, unlike you humans, For us Liquid (Any kind) and exposing ourselves to wind/air is fatal, I remember my sister was in the ICU when she had accidentally fallen a prey for water but she slowly recovered, everyone said that the recovery was all a sheer luck and the god's grace.

Whatever we learnt, we understood, everything was within those walls, for us our home was our world, btw we never had walls, coz we were living in a cylindrical pipe, which is considered to be the royal architecture amongst our kind.

well the time came when we really were migrated to some place, I did not know where we as a whole family were going to… but heard all my relatives and cousins telling that we were being shifted to some other place and they over heard of being done so… even they were clueless, all my cousins, my sis and myself were very happy to know about this and devilishly waiting for a chance to get out and have a peek a boo of the outside world, by then we all had realized that there existed something beyond us, which we were really not sure or familiar of...


Finally we did arrive to a place which none of us were aware of, could hear some noise, kind of a rattling sound, elders in our house started praying...My mum screamed at us not to get out of there, as she sat for her prayers, she was really worried, I could see her helplessness, but never understood the reason though!

Meanwhile my sister and I were almost near the main door trying to hear someone speaking about us, something Royal... blah blah blah. We were amazed to hear the voice of someone from this external world but then this was illegible and dampened. Elders also could hear this and they began screaming saying “Tea is Our Liberator, Salvation nearing!!!”, and by the time we realized this, we were pulled out from the house the main door was ruthlessly torn apart, in a split second we both just slided out and had never felt so hard ever before...

“Oh dear now that am here, why am I narrating you guys my story, when I should make the most of this moment outside the boring house, but wait...molly look It is a wonderful world out here... so many things which I had never seen before... I can sense some freshness molly... it is all new”!

Molly : “milly am afraid, will you just shut up, before those monstrous creatures gobble us up”!

“I am in love with this outside world... so many colours, I was just bored with the same set of pale colours... but here I see so many colours I had ever seen in my life, I really don’t know what they are named as...look there is another house similar to ours...I don’t know why mummy hates this place...”

I never realised how different I was until I really got out of those walls and saw the new world all together, my whole perception of the external world changed.

I never realised, how beautiful I was, and how much I was loved, until I really got out there out of my home and heard these huge monstrous creatures praising us, adoring us, so they do have a heart...!

“Look molly they are taking our family name and praising us”...

We realized that, they enjoyed us day or night… I guess everyone liked us! Every one enjoyed us, from kids to aged… well I am a little proud of myself being more beautiful and of course crispier than molly …. who could have really resisted my oomph factor and my dusky skin, and my boldness….

“Aww... wats happening... ooow......molly don’t let me go...Pull me back this monster is so cruel, surely it's gonna eat me away....”

“Mommy...., never let me go...please help me!”

:( Alas! it’s too late I guess, I can sense something bad here, as I see mom hiding inside and weeping... “Milly, Tea is the God's Plan of Salvation!...”

I don’t know wats she saying.... “Ouch!!! Its terribly hot ... don’t dip me in this furnace you stupid monstor”......... Ah! Btw is this the Tea??? OMG!!!

“Am drowning am drowning! Help Help.....my legs are soaked and they are getting dissolved.. stop it... my hands are burning..., Oh my crispiness is lost!!! 
ouch...blobb blobb”....


Wow wasn’t that a nice afternoon tea, with Rich Royal Tea Biscuit!
