Story of Adam and Eve, part one

Adam is fast asleep on his bed of poppy flowers. The next day, the sun rises and Adam wakes up. But something is wrong, it's like somethings missing. His heart feels all funny, it’s like it’s skipped a beat. The birds are chirping away as usual in a language he can’t understand and next to him is a new creature, one he hasn’t ever seen before.

Good morning, says the creature.

Adam is speechless. The creature looks just like him, but even better. Different somehow, but, it can talk and he can understand what it’s saying! Oh my God! He says.

God hears and chuckles to himself.

What? says God.

Who’s this?

Why it’s….

God finishes his sentence for him. It’s a woman.

Adam has all sorts of questions. But this woman can talk back. From then on, she doesn’t shut up, because God gave her vocal chords. There is much to talk about. Adam can’t take his eyes of her. He knows God made her just for him. (He doesn’t know she was made out of him, but we will come to that later). He wants to touch her, she looks so fine.

He holds out his hand, and examines hers. Wow, I don’t believe it. They look just like mine! The woman giggles. He wants to hold her hand all the time and not let go. The woman suggests they take a walk round the garden, and Adam says of course, I will show you around.
