The Interrupted Tea Party – The Fairy Tale (sort of)
On a foggy day, pretty much like today, somebody or something decided that they would like to throw a tea party. There was nobody to invite and even if there was somebody or something would most likely not show up because, well, because the air was gray and the ground was wet. This somebody, who wanted to throw a tea party, just sat in a chair and thought how great it would be here if all would join him at the affair and drank his tea with a flair during this rainy weather. But that somebody, who was imagining that tea party, did not have any tea, not even a teacup to drink from that tea.
Of course, this somebody would be still in his chair, waiting for the affair, if not for a marvel that befell and interrupted his imaginary tea party. Well, his tea party was not really interrupted. There was nothing to interrupt, but, the interrupted tea party fell down from the sky on a flying saucer. We don’t really know if that was a flying saucer or a tea cup from a tea party's affair that somebody pushed down the air from their upside-down table. That we can’t tell, but what we can tell is that this saucer fell, and, it seemed like it fell with a piece of cloth, which looked pretty much like it was meant for a table, though nobody can tell, well, because, well nobody was there to experience that flair but that somebody, who was thinking about the tea party.
Certainly, that somebody would probably be still there thinking, oh dear, what a figment of my affair if not for the googly eye glare on that table cloth that fell with a saucer. Pretty soon, or maybe it was not so soon, as the somebody, who imagined the tea party, thought, one of the eyes winked at him and, it seemed, that the something or someone showed their teeth to him as if smiling. Of course, all of this was bewildering but it was confusing enough to keep that somebody’s interest in what was happening in front of or maybe even on him. - Darling, - someone finally said, - if you turn this cloth around, flop it up and stretch it out, you might see what’s really there, down the ground or up the air. That somebody, who thought about the tea party, stood upside down and to his surprise there he saw a bird-like-creature wearing a winter hat. That somebody, who imagined the tea party, was perplexed. He never thought he would see anybody wear a heavy winter hat in the middle of the summer, besides there were no winters there where he sat and imagined the tea party. The googly eyes swiftly turned into two tea saucers. To his surprise that someone or something in a winter hat looked at him, it seemed like from above, though the somebody, who was imagining the tea party, knew that this was impossible, because he was the one standing on his head, so the one with the winter hat, most likely, was looking at him from downside up.
Surely, that somebody, who was imagining the tea party, would be still admiring the view while standing upside down if not of that thing in the heavy winter hat unexpectedly making a sound that reminded him a bit of the sound roosters make early in the morning. - It must be morning, - the somebody, who imagined the tea party, thought. - Oh no, my dear, it’s only the beginning of a morning before the morning up here, - someone or something said again. The somebody, who imagined the tea party, turned around and almost fell down from the downside up. He was not expecting to find himself balancing on the glass saucer which looked more like an eyeball. - Don’t try to find me, my dear, - that someone or something said again. – We are here because you interrupted our tea party affair. If you are not careful, you might… The one, who imagined the tea party, didn’t hear next words. He fell from the eyeglass-saucer-ball.
And just like that he knew there was the tea party he thought about while upside down, but he wasn’t sure though how he was able to drink the tea while sitting downside up.
