Rosita was a 6 year old girl, daughter of the captain of the fleet of space watchers, her dream was to go to explore the galaxy, in the great silver ship, with large windows that her father piloted, he always told her to take her, but he never agreed, because it was not wise for a girl to go to those explorations.

One day Rosita's mother was about to take some things to her husband to the military base, the girl in an oversight got into the car, she hid very well under the back seat, when she arrived at the base, she stealthily got out of the car, at her young age she was very smart, so she managed to get to the ship, she took advantage of an oversight of the crew and got in, she hid very well, without making any noise she stayed there, until the ship took off into space.


In his backpack he carried water and cookies, he drank so much water that he felt like going to the bathroom and had to leave his hiding place.

Girl, how did you get here," she heard him say.

A crew member found her and when he took her to the captain, who was her father, he was very surprised, "How did you get here," he asked her, she calmly told him how she came to be in that place, "Your mother must be very worried, not finding you, I will have to send a cable to earth, to inform her what happened," said the man, with a frown.

After scolding him, he lifted her up and took her to one of the windows of the ship, Rosita could finally contemplate the milky way, it was just as she imagined it, colorful planets, billions of stars and bright squids floating aimlessly, she was really satisfied for having done this mischief.

Rosita's father had no choice but to order the return to earth, but when they were about to do it, the ship received a strong blow, they were hit by a huge meteorite, the girl was taken to a safe place, the ship received another blow, but this time, of greater magnitude, suffered serious damage, so they had to put the oxygen spheres on their heads, the ship fell heavily, as if it was pulled from the ground.

They all put on their special suits, Rosita's father took her in his arms and they jumped out of the ship, before it collided, they activated the parachutes and let themselves fall, a strong breeze made Rosita get out of her father's arms, for a while she continued descending, until her feet touched the ground, when she looked around her everything was brown, like chocolate; She was alone and scared, she leaned her body on a soft rock and closed her eyes, suddenly she heard some steps, she was happy, thinking it was her father, what a surprise she got, some little men were approaching her, they were brown with big eyes and thin mouths, they looked like chocolate, they even smelled like chocolate.

Approaching her, a little chocolate man said: -Hello, I'm cocoa, don't be afraid, we won't hurt you- -Hello, I'm cocoa, don't be afraid, we won't hurt you-.

But, rosita was more than scared, she was amazed that these creatures, who seemed to be from fantasy, could speak her own language, -I'm rosita- she said.

-Welcome to Planet Chocolate,- said Cocoa.

Rosita thanked the welcome with a smile, but remembered that she was alone, her eyes filled with tears and she began to cry.

-Why are you sad? - asked Cocoa.

Rosita explained to him the accidental way she had arrived on this planet and that she was separated from her father and the other crew members of the ship, that she wanted to return home and there was no way to do it.

Cacao was very moved to see Rosita's sadness, so he decided to help her find her father, who could also be on the planet. He told her mother what had happened and they put the girl up in their house.

The next morning they started the expedition to find Rosita's father, the first thing they found was the remains of the ship, they found some food, which was useful for Rosita, because the only thing she had eaten was chocolate, even the rivers were made of chocolate; they continued their journey for several days, Rosita was already losing hope of finding her father.

Hopes that returned, -My father must be near-. Rosita shouted, excited when she came across a flannel.

-Let's keep looking,- said Cocoa.

A few meters away they found Rosita's father, not only him, the whole crew was there; the girl ran to him and they embraced each other tightly, they were together, but they still could not go back home, the sadness was still there.

Cocoa wanted to help her new friend, she told her mother about the existence of a ship that in strange circumstances had fallen from the sky without crew members, the little man told this to Rosita's father, they went to get the ship and luckily for them, they were able to repair it.

Cacao was happy for Rosita, but sad because he would lose this new friend, they said goodbye and boarded the ship, from one of the windows, he observed how the Planet Chocolate became smaller.
