30 Lucky dragon

Deep and lost in his thoughts, the father dragon's eyelids became increasingly heavy with each passing breathe. With every minute slipping away, he became increasingly sleepy. As much as he tried to keep himself awake, his brain felt otherwise.

Perching on top of the 7 storey tall building, onlookers were not looking kindly at him. They all know that if he had fallen from such a height, they will be completely smashed onto the ground but he will remain unscathed. Some aliens had never seen a dragon before and were busy snapping pictures of him and posting it in their virtual community space and tagging their location. Their marketing manager caught wind of the situation and immediately ordered their security guards to handle the situation.

"Hey! Hey you there! You're trespassing private property! Scram!" Shouted the angry security guard from behind the dragon.

The father dragon snapped out of his daze and lost his footing, diving straight into the crowds on ground level. A series of screams was heard as the dragon dived straight into them. The area was too small to expand his wings and gild along the wind currents.

Luckily, the dragon's was quick in his reflexes and managed to assume his human form before somersaulting onto the walkway. The landing was so beautiful that the onlookers give him a round of applause when he landed!

As he bowed to the viewers and claps, a low vibration can be heard from the the shop, Saint Sparks.

"Did you hear that?"

"Is someone doing renovation in the shop at this hour?"

"No, it sounded more like someone snoring."

"Don't be ridiculous, how can a person'a snore shake the whole building!"

"Hahhaa, you're right. Let's get some supper and predrinks before hitting Tabs tonight."

"Yosh!!"

The silent dragon felt overwhelmed with emotions. His wife is safe and resting soundly. His eyes glistened with wetness. At long last he would not have to accompany her during her insomnia. It's been years since both of them had a good sleep. With that said, he laid his back against the the wall of the shop and decided to rest till daybreak.

A few passerby threw some money at handsome daddy dragon, feeling pity for him and mistaking him as a homeless beggar. Before daybreak, he had already accumulated a substantial amount of money. At least, enough to pay the entrance fee for the shop. The dragon was really lucky!
