Chapter 15 - What Does He Like?

"Me coming. Wait for me." Zhang Yong smiled widely at them.

He reached for the grape, as his mouth began to water, he snatched it violently eager to please his taste buds and quickly placed it in his mouth.

He let the grape roll underneath his tongue and back on top where he balanced it as his body prepared for godliness. As his mouth began to flood with saliva signaling it couldn't wait any longer, he crushed the grape with his first molars and the flavor exploded as if he had set off a bomb.

He could feel, taste and analyze all the different flavors and dyes as if he was a living chromatogram, his taste buds eased with satisfaction as the appetizing juice ran down his throat followed by the violet exterior.

He stood there with his eyes closed, captivated by what he had just experienced and convinced that this was truly the work of God.

The grape was actually quite big as compared to what he used to eat back on the earth. That grape felt like he was actually eating a damson because of its size.

He again looked here and there, "I should give some to Fuzzy too. He must be hungry too."

He started to collect some more grapes and only turned around when he was satisfied. He just took some steps back when all of a sudden realization hit him.

He looked here and there trying to see where Fuzzy was but he was no where to be seen.

He started to panic at that and soon.....

Zhang Yong started to panic at that and soon started to find Fuzzy.

"Fuzzy?" "Fuzzy!" "Fuzzy, where are you?" He kept yelling as he tried to find Fuzzy.

Even after looking for him here and there he still wasn't able to find him and that was scaring him.

"Where did he go?"

With each passing minute he started to panic. He ran here and there and just went wherever his feet took him and his mind told him to go.

"Fu… Fuzzy."

His lips trembled as he managed to let those words out of his mouth. His eyes were on only one thing now, the big lizard which was moving towards him with slow and cautious steps like an animal taking towards its prey.

Seeing that lizard coming towards him, for some time he stayed rooted to his place. The lizard ducked his head down and came towards him slowly.

Zhang Yong's legs felt numb and it felt like he was going to pass out there any minute.

"RUN Zhang." He yelled at himself and with that he started to run away in the opposite direction.

Seeing his prey running away from him, the lizard also increased his pace and started to run towards him. With great difficulty Zhang Yong was able to get only a little away from him when all of a sudden his leg got caught in some thing.

His leg got twisted and he fell down on the floor because of that. He turned around only to see a rock because of which he fell down.

"Dang it."

Zhang Yong was just about to get up from the ground when he again fell down, he realized his knee had a little cut on it because of which he found it difficult to stand up and run away.

The lizard upon seeing that slowed his pace but not much and still kept on approaching him. Zhang Yong looked back at the lizard and shivered upon seeing it.

'Maybe he will also become my pet like that if I try to be nice to him.'

With this thought Zhang Yong gave that lizard a big smile and then said, "Hey there handsome lizard."

He rolled his eyes in his mind at his own words and thought, 'More like ugly, disgusting lizard. Eww I wanna puke just by looking at it.'

He again gave that lizard a smile who didn't seem to care about it and just came towards Zhang Yong like he was going to be his breakfast for today.

"Hey you handsome lizard. Why don't we do some thing?" He gulped before continuing, "We can be friends you know. I can….. I can be very useful."

'Useful and me pfft. But what's the harm in just saying some words like that.'

"So what do you say? If you don't kill me and try to eat me I can help you a lot."

He vigorously nodded his head, hoping that the lizard would agree with him. But how wrong he was.

The next moment he saw the lizard jumping onto him. His eyes widened. 'Is this the end.'

He closed his eyes and just waited for the next outcome when all of a sudden he heard a bang and a squeak sound.

The voices soon died down but he was still scared to open up his eyes. Even though he wanted to open them he still felt them heavy and difficult to open.

"Roar."

"Fuzzy?... "
