Alien invasion

Clara loved staring at the stars, they were gorgeous, sprinkling the sky like sugar on her doughnut. It was only a few years ago she landed on Earth, living with another family.

Time passed more slowly here, so three years were like three days at home. It took a while to get used the twenty-four hour day. Now it was like she never was on her home planet.

She missed home, but the strangest difference was babies were born to parents. Not in a laboratory. Her first memory was rows of cots, watching her fellow children grow like buds on a rose bush. Only moved to parents when they were old enough to talk. It was strange watching her earth family bring a new baby home.

They couldn’t do anything but cry.
