It was very early morning when Mr. A and I heard our doorbell ring. You could imagine our surprise when we opened the door and saw who it was.
“Oh DP, you had us a little worried. Luckily you came back in time and we didn’t have to bother the TG!”, I exclaimed. ”Where have you been? You look… well never mind that… you must be exhausted and hungry. I bet what you need is a nice cup of tea.”
DP didn’t say much as he gobbled down some breakfast and sipped his tea.
He was feeling much better by the time Mr. A insisted that he should enjoy a little American Football before leaving.
Of course, throwing the football around didn’t last too long and the first chance DP had (when Mr. A was busy chasing after a loose ball and had his back turned), he headed back inside the house to relax.
Being “well read” and all, DP decided to do a little “light” reading to calm himself and settled with “Six Easy Pieces” by Richard Feynman.
After reading a few pages, DP’s head was spinning and had to conclude that the “Six Easy Pieces” were not so easy after all. Was there even a point to attempt the second book, “Six Not-So-Easy Pieces” by Feynman, DP thought. He skimmed through a few other books that happened to be lying around…. but they just made him even more DIZZY.
“I think I better get some good ol’ fashion shut eye, before my departure tomorrow”, DP said. So we prepared a special box room for him and included a few special items to make him feel more at home.
Before we could even turn the lights out, DP was fast asleep and snoring.

The next morning came in a blink of an eye. We were a little happy sad and just a tad relieved when the mailman arrived to pick up the package that we had somehow managed to receive by mistake.
“Safe Travels DP!”, the Amazing Family sang as the mail truck drove off!
THE END

Before DP was able to scream “HELP” for a second time, his good ol’, life saving buddy was swooping him up out of the cruel waters.
DP was in complete awe and even Hadrid lifted his eyebrows a bit. ”Don’t worry Hadgrid, I’m just going to get a little closer…. I’ve never touched a space shuttle before… look how magnificent it is!”, declared DP. Just then, the ground began to shake and all the metal structures rattled. Hadgrid didn’t have the reaction time nor could he see through all the smoke to grab DP before the Shuttle took off with DP dangling along. ”Oh dear, my shirt is caught on this bolt right here”, as he screamed and yanked his shirt loose, “AHHHH! Now I’m really in for it!” But thankfully, DP remembered in the knick of time that he had his loaner soldier body. Surely, he had to have a parachute.
Luck was on DP’s side once again.
