“AHH, AHH, CHOO!” I explode. The sound of my sneeze echoes throughout the house. Pictures hanging upstairs rattle against the wall. Glasses in the cupboard tinkle, as if someone is raising a toast to my booming sneeze. The newspaper sitting on the coffee table flips from sports to comics.

Flying out of my mouth at great speed is an unusual blob followed by a fine spray of saliva. This strange lump seems almost alive. What follows is an unbelievable meeting with a most unusual visitor. Read all about my strange experience in this short story. No tissue is necessary!
