THIS SHIT IS REAL!

Ashton couldn't keep his eyes off her as she sat opposite to him zealously looking around. There was some unique charm to her but he couldn't find out exactly what it was.

'May be, I should start talking rather than acting like a complete idiot. Okay, here I go!' Ashton thought. He tried to hold on to his business attitude before speaking.

"May I know your name please? Ahh… It is for the record purpose" He told trying to hide his eyes from hers.

"My name??Hmm…I'm lizaaa..."She stopped in between deep in thought.

"Well you can call me Lyza" she told.

"Okay...And last name?" Ashton asked.

"Wall??" She said trying to read his expression.

Seeing that he is confused, she immediately bawled," Wall...e...e..e..ee..It is Wally... Lyza Wally.."

"Oh, Nice to meet you Lyza. I am Ashton Blue. You do have a unique name." he replied.

Hearing this, she contemplated whether to tell him the truth or not. 'Well, He doesn't seem like a bad guy.And what will happen to the utmost? He might think I am a freak and that is not new to me. ' she thought.

She leaned towards Ashton and whispered in a serious tone. "Listen Ashton. I am not sure whether I should tell you this. I am not from around here. Well, to be specific I am not from your class."

"Ohh...I am sure about that. I would have remembered you if you were from my class.." Ashton said with a naughty grin on his face.

"I know it may sound crazy. No definitely crazy! But, miracles happen all the time . It's just that we are too lazy to notice it. You ought to believe in them when life insists on revealing it"

She took a long pause and said faintly.

"I am not human. I am a wall lizard."

"I am sorry. I couldn't hear you.You are a what?" asked Ashton attentively.

"I am a wall lizard. You know, those scaly little wall creatures that goes in all fours" and she started to do an impression of a lizard using hand gestures.

"A lizard?Oh God... She is a nutcase. This explains the shabbiness. Well...how come she is so pretty being a lizard?" Ashton thought looking at her admiringly.

Lyza continued her narration.

"I don't know what exactly happened that day. I was at my home having a feast with my family".

"I know you humans belittle our food choices as bugs." She told annoyingly.

"Anyway", she said. "The weather was not favorable. There were dark and dismal clouds in the sky. Suddenly, out of nowhere a dazzling blue lightning bolt struck us. I had never seen anything like that my entire life. Its high impact threw me out from the roof and I fell inside one of the onion bags in the market below. The next thing I know is that I have become a human."

"Ohh.. my eyes were all red and puffy when I woke up. I mistook it for humans being emotional creatures" Lyza said curiously.

"Wait a minute", Ashton stopped her in between. "So you are telling that you live on a roof…in the market?" he asked mockingly.

"Not everyone have a roof above their head Ashton, some have it below".

She continued.

"Anyway, I was wandering around for the last few days. My brother and his allies who also became humans wanted to take me back home to sort this out. But, I don't want to go back. I kind of like being a human. This is more adventurous. The only adventure I had so far was fighting with spiders for food. They have hi-tech equipments for that, you know. Hence I always felt primitive."

Ashton looked at her, confused, trying to figure out how much the wiring in her head is jumbled up.

"You were the first human that spoke to me kindly after the incident. So I came to find you thinking that you will be able to help me out"

"I think the lightning hastened up some phenomenon. Not reincarnation. Because I am sure I didn't die" She told thinking earnestly.

"Yeah! I heard 'Pikachu' was on the loose that day"

"You watch a lot of dramas, don't you?".

Lyza ignored Ashton's comments and said, "May be evolution?"

"So you are telling humans evolved from lizards? Did I study the wrong textbook?" Ashton asked mockingly.

"May be. I have also attended schools. Well…basically sat in which ever class I felt interested in. And damn, you people are loud!!"

As Ashton sat there thinking what to reply as she spoke,

"I know it is hard for you to believe me. But, This shit is real!!

"By the way, do you know what the best part is?? Being able to walk in 2 legs!! It took me 2 days to master it!! And yeah, definitely not being shooed away."

Seeing Ashton not taking her seriously unlike what she expected, she stood up to leave.

"I will get going now. Hope we will meet again."

When she was about to leave the salon, Ashton called out to her and asked humorously.

"So you are telling that you have a tail?"

"Tail? She has a tail?"

Jerry who heard only the last part looked at her bum intently.

Jess gave him a loud spank on the head.

"What? I was checking if she has a tail!"

"So where do you plan on sleeping tonight?" asked Ashton ignoring those two.

"Oh, I will just climb over a wall" She replied placidly and silently walked away .
