A Mother-star residing in a nearby galaxy had plenty of planets as children around her. They would go round and round the Mother-star and derived warmth from her.
Once a Comet from a distant galaxy was pulled to this Mother-star. It was the first time that the Comet had seen such a wonderful star with so many planets. As the Comet came close to the Mother-star, it asked "Which among your children planets do you like the best?" The Mother-star replied, "Son, you don't understand" and remained silent. The Comet whizzed off on its voyage. Eons later, the Comet came back. This time it found that there were very few planets around the Mother-star. The Comet, when it came close to the Mother-star asked - "What happened to your children planets?" The Mother-star replied, "Son, you don't understand", she smiled and remained silent. The Comet whizzed off on its voyage.
After a 1000 million years, the Comet came back to the galaxy of the Mother-star. It found that there were no planet children and the Mother-star was dying. The Comet became very sad and asked the Mother-star - "What happened to all your children planets. Are you also going to die?" The Mother-star replied - "Son, you will soon understand", she smiled and as the Comet accelerated past the galaxy, the Mother-star died.
The Comet was sad and confused. Then the Comet came by a dark region of space and it suddenly realized that it had grown 1000 times in splendour.
