The Galaxy Prince

By Solana Lu Quintero

Remember when you were a small kid- like really small, and you believed every word your father said?
You didn't start thinking about the 'whys' and 'hows' until you're eight.
I read somewhere on Banji-net that parents tell kids on Earth that Santa is real, instead of letting them in on the secret of their economical struggles. I guess they do that, because they want you to be happy, and not have to worry, like them...

I've always wondered if you are anything like us.
Appa says that Earth People are 'ruthless' and 'nothing but selfish beings that destroy their own planet'. And Grandfather was even worse, before he passed.
Why would anyone want to destroy their own home? Are you people that beastly?

I believed every word Appa said, until the seventeenth time he scolded me about never studying hard enough; Then it hit me. He doesn't know everything, because he was wrong that time. I studied all day and even stayed up past my normal waking hours and only made one mistake on that quiz.
Only one mistake.
-And it scared me, because that means that he's just like me in a way, and doesn't know the answer to everything in this universe. He must feel lost sometimes. And that makes me feel nervous, because when I'm lost; will he be able to help me?
Do you ever feel that way?

By the way- I know this is random, but I think you have the most beautiful planet out there...
