บท 46: The August Visitors (1)

"Do not panic..." 

"Okay... that's making me want to panic," Chris said to his mother on the phone. Usually, she called during the evenings since that was when she was usually free, but right now, it was noon and he was in school, so her call made him very worried, wondering if something had happened, and hearing her tell him not to panic didn't make things better. Also, the background was quite noisy. 

"We are at your university!" His mother said it excitedly, surprising him. 

"What? How? Who's 'we'? Is Dad there? Where are you guys?" He asked while his feet increased their pace to leave his faculty. His first reaction was shock, but then he was excited. Even though he had been here for only a few days, he missed his parents. 

"We landed in the field behind the University." His mother's cheery voice said, and Chris could hear his father's voice in the background asking if Chris was excited.
