Fly 2.0

One day another fly came by and settled down in front of the gecko. Just as the gecko was about to open its mouth to gobble it up just as it did with the last fly, the fly suddenly uttered "Wait!".

The gecko did not eat the fly that day.

One afternoon while the gecko was lazing under the warmth of the midday sun, it heard a buzzing sound and opened its eyes. A fly landed in front of it and stared at the gecko with its multi-faceted orbs. The gecko stared back. A certain feeling came over the gecko. It felt that there is some connection, some intimate kinship with this tiny black thing with six hairy legs, a pair of wings and two red eyes. And this link was supposed to go a loooong waaayyy back....

The fly scratched its head with a forelimb and stared at the gecko again. It looked like it was about to say something.

The gecko gobbled up the fly.

In the beginning there was nothing, and the universe was not yet born, and then...boom!

Anyway, to cut the story short, and so it came that after many things of greater or smaller significance a gecko first opened its eyes to the world one fine day, took a look and muttered 'So that's it huh?', and promptly went back to sleep.
