Dr. Earth And Corona
Dr. Earth And Corona
Hundred days had passed since Corona was born. He had done a World Tour of the Earth.
On a dark and dusty night, Earth and Corona were lying comfortably on the misty green grass gazing at the golden pearl-like stars which made the sky a splendid sight. Corona saw a broad smile on Earth's Geoid face and wondered, "Wow. Earth actually looks happier without humans! Haha, this means I'll not have to go to Venus again- oh sorry, it's way too hot there- Jupiter because I'm not getting kicked out from here! Yes!"
Earth broke the silence and said, "Hey, Corona! It's been so chillaxing without all these humans' hustle-bustle. I am so happy now! I hope you never leave. You are a lifesaver! But well, how are keeping all these humans at home?"
"You don't know, beautiful. It's a secret.", exclaimed Corona with an evil smile.
They both chatted for the entire night. It seemed as if it was the best moment of their lives. They did not even realize that they had begun snoring.
The Sun had risen. It was morning. As they both woke up, Corona and Earth both freshened up. Corona began his duty.
He had covered every corner from Kashmir to Kerala. He felt a chill of satisfaction as he heard coughs and sneezes.
Meanwhile, Earth was busy gossiping with her neighborhood besties- Venus and Jupiter. Jupiter began saying, "Hey Earth, I heard from Saturn that you seem really happy without all these humans. Hmm, Corona, right?"
"Yeah. Corona's such a lifesaver!" Replied Earth.
"Well, Oh god! Corona!" Venus exclaimed in fury as she ceased applying her facemask.
"What happened, Venus?"
"Corona visited my planet too. Oh god, I was like devastated!"
"Why?"
"Didn't Corona tell you? It's murdering your babies- humans."
"What?"
In a few months, when Corona had completely vanished, Earth was happier.
Hustle- bustle from her babies was indeed a gift for her.
Dr. Earth took a relieved breath as she took off her mask.
