Autobiography of an Ant - Aadya Sharma

Hello, dear readers! Today, I am here to tell you about my life as a creature around a million times smaller than an average human. I am Antie the ant; you must have seen me or one of my friends often. Truth be told, I am sincerely sorry for the times I bit you. I am a part of the super cool ‘Food Squad’ we have here on planet Ant. Our role is to collect food for the rainiest days and get all the food for us before the grasshoppers get their hands on it.


My life is like an elite hardcore gym workout where I usually train with weights up to three times my size! The only difference between me and you working out is that you get rest days, and I do not. Yesterday, I saw the most prominent and juiciest apple; it almost felt like I had discovered another planet on the ground. I immediately shouted out to the others. My comrades and I carried the apple to the queen, and she shrieked in awe. She is our leader and also the one who lays the eggs for more ants; you know, the more, the merrier!


Life is short, literally we only live upto a lucky number of a few decades. So we eat dessert first. My life is always exciting. I am snug as a bug in a rug, living in our anthill with my friends and family!
