As I opened my I eyes, I was shocked. My bedroom became giant and I saw a weird UFO fly away from our house. I thought,\u00a0&#8216;Did the aliens transform me into a tiny human?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, I saw a mosquito. It was as big as a bird. I ran away at once and screamed. It was then I heard the weirdest thing ever. The\u00a0mosquito said,\u00a0&#8216;Hey!\u00a0Little boy, don&#8217;t be scared.&#8217; Was I dreaming? I thought it was just my imagination. But after that, it said, &#8216;Hey! Don&#8217;t be scared, talking is normal for animals. Every animal can talk. Humans do not\u00a0know we can talk as we do not talk when they are around.&#8217; Oh! All animals could talk! How amazing!<\/p>\n<p>Then, I had a long conversation with the mosquito. The mosquito was called Ben and they had their own country, too. They had TVs, cars, plane, boats and even trains!<\/p>\n<p>When we were talking, suddenly, mum came in. We hid under the pillow. She was angry and shouted, &#8216;You naughty Arnold, where have you been?&#8217; She was furious, so she threw away the pillow. Then, mum saw us. She hated mosquitos so much.<\/p>\n<p>I shouted, &#8216;Ben! She hates mosquitos. She\u2019ll kill&#8230;&#8217; Before I could say the last word, mum had already attacked us. Ben picked me up and flew away. I tried to get close to mum, so that she could hear me. But when I got closer, she used her hands to hit us. Ben flew up and down, so that she could not hit us.<\/p>\n<p>When we were getting closer, suddenly, we were hit by mum. Ben fainted and we were falling to the floor. I shouted, &#8216;Ben! Wake up! We will die! Ben!&#8217; When we almost hit the ground, Ben woke up. He flew upwards and we survived. We cried, &#8216;Yeah!&#8217; But we still did not realize that mum&#8217;s hand was dashing towards us. When we knew that, it was too late. Ben threw me to the bed but was hit by mum. I fell on the pillow hard but did not feel painful. I did not know where Ben was, so I shouted, &#8216;Ben! Ben! Where are you?&#8217; No one answered me.<\/p>\n<p>Then, I saw mum sitting on the bed. She said angrily, &#8216;If I find Arnold, he\u2019ll not be allowed to play video games for a month!&#8217; I jumped onto her hand and climbed up. I stood right next to her ear and cried, &#8216;Hi mum! I am on your shoulder!&#8217; She was shocked for a few seconds. Then, she looked at her shoulder and screamed, \u201cOH MY GOD!&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>I said, &#8216;I guess some aliens made me tiny. I saw a UFO.&#8217; &#8216;What can we do?&#8217; asked mum. &#8216;Take me out please,&#8217; I told mum. &#8216;You stay here, I go get some food for you.&#8217; Mum left me in the garden.<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, I saw the UFO again. It flew towards me. I was scared. There were two aliens getting off from the UFO and they caught me. They put me into a giant glass box and used something to make me faint.<\/p>\n<p>Later I was awakened by the sound of distant thunder again. As I open my eyes, I was not in the glass box. Oh! I became normal! Wait a minute, I was about two metres tall now. I rushed back home and shouted, &#8216;Mom. I\u2019m normal now. But I\u2019m very tall!&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Mum heard me and screamed, &#8216;Oh my God! You can join the NBA now!&#8217; She felt very happy. Then, I thought about Ben. Where was Ben? I went to my bedroom and shouted, &#8216;Ben, where are you?&#8217; A few minutes later, I heard Ben say, &#8216;Hey! Arnold! I am right next to your ear now!&#8217; I turned right and saw Ben. I was relieved.<\/p>\n<p>Now I talked to Ben every night. He became the president of the Mosquito Kingdom and also my best friend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One night, I was awakened by the sound of distant thunder.
