The Call Of The Universe
August 8th, Celestine lay sprawled in the middle of her open field, her research papers scattered around her like fallen leaves. Her eyes were fixed on the night sky, but there was a nervous energy in her movements as if she were waiting for something imminent.
Suddenly, a bright streak shot across the sky, and Celestine's heart raced. "There it is!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with excitement.
"What's there?" came a voice from behind her. She jumped, then turned to see her friend Sarah approaching.
"I've been studying these stars for months, and I think I found something," Celestine said, her words quick and urgent.
"There are anomalies in the patterns, and I'm certain they're trying to communicate something. It's like they're speaking a language we can't understand."
Sarah gave a skeptical laugh. "You've been spending too much time out here. There's no way the stars are trying to talk to us. I could've seen it too."
Celestine grabbed Sarah's arm. "No, I'm serious! I've recorded strange hums and vibrations. I just need to decipher them."
Sarah shook her head, but her friend's excitement was contagious. "Alright, show me what you've found," Sarah said, sitting down beside her. She was too tired for this, and all she could do was humble her friend. She didn't believe Celestine for she thought she was just getting too into this, besides, she is more of an expert in this field than her.
As Celestine picked up her papers of what she had discovered these past few days, Sarah scoffed in disbelief for it looked real. The patterns in her illutrations appeared to be there, she could imagine it but when she looked up and tried to trace the stars, it just wasn't there.
She felt shivers run down her spine for the patterns seemed familiar to her.
'No.' she said in her mind.
"It can't be..." As she remembered the origins of the patterns, she stared at Celestine in pure horror.
"What? Did you just see it now sarah? I found it too strange, yo know? I thought others and not just me noticed it but I waited for news of it to appear but there wasn't. And then there's you..."
"We need to talk to my Father, Celestine."
