The barista from the town’s café, rarely stopped off at the pub after work.
This night was an exception. It was a showstopper in more ways than one. Naturally, most of the patrons knew him; at least by sight. A few heads turned to watch him enter, but this changed when he began to make his important announcement. First, he quickly downed two whiskies, then swivelled around on his barstool and faced the two dozen or so patrons with the news. He said that his work was done. He explained that he was not, nor ever had been, human. At this the mood in the room changed, with a few sniggers and hushed conversations. He went on to say that for two of Earth’s years, he had regularly sent reports, based on what he had learnt here, to his home planet. This being situated in a nearby galaxy; details about this, he was forbidden to talk about.
The place had remained remarkably silent throughout his entire declaration. It was as though his audience had been placed under a spell. This changed when he turned and ordered another congratulatory drink.
A lone voice came up with a simple question. “Can you prove it?”
It was a direct enquiry; he had to admit that. He sat thinking for a while, before coming up with an answer. He nodded, saying, “The only thing I can do to demonstrate the truth of what I’ve said, is to momentarily shimmer.” His hand went up to stop a barrage of questions. “What you see here, of course, is not my true appearance. Taking on this physical form was a most unpleasant experience, and before this night is out, I’ll have to go through it again. Meanwhile, to demonstrate the veracity of what I have told you, I can shimmer.”
A few mumbles came from the room.
He slid off his stool and once again held up his hand. “If I were to try to transform myself back to my original physical form without the proper authority to do so, my entire body begins to shimmer. It’s a very uncomfortable thing to do, so I’ll only do it once.”
He closed his eyes as a painful facial expression took hold. Moments later, a brightly coloured, sparkling haze enveloped his entire body, from head to toe!
Gasps rang out around the pub, as the vivid shimmering continued.
The shock of watching this amazing display meant that the vision remained fixed with them, and hardly any one of them heard him bid them, “Goodnight”.
It goes without saying, he was never seen again…
