Once upon a time there was a small bacterium that had a great dream which was to visit the human body. He wanted to know first-hand about this place from which he had heard so many stories of daring and deadly feats. Day and night she dreamed of one day being able to visit that place, but his parents frustrated that dream because they did not want his daughter to take such a risk.

This family lived in a corner of the bathroom of the house of a family of human beings. From the patio of her house, the little bacteria could see how human beings entered and left her field of vision daily from where she was. Contrary to her father's warnings, her desire to visit the inside of the human body grew day by day and her mother was very upset and she always said that she had lost her mind.

One day she was alone in her house, because her parents had left her and that day she had woke up with a courage that she had never felt. She told herself that if she didn't do what she had dreamed of that day, she never would. She took her backpack and ventured into the courtyard of her house because it was the time when the little human would enter the bathroom.

It happened as she planned, the little human entered the bathroom to brush and she, as the entire bathroom space was known, reached the child's toothbrush in no time and managed to get inside the child's body.

This was better than she imagined. Shapes, sizes and structures that she had never seen or would ever see because they were inside the human body. What she did not expect is that she was a very dangerous type of bacteria for the human body and that the body had released its defenders: the white blood cells. The white blood cells were determined to finish her off and she didn't know it.

Within the squad of white blood cells encased in that flaw was a young man who had always disagreed with the policies of exterminating bacteria without knowing their intentions. And once again, he did her job reluctantly.

The little bacteria and the squad of white blood cells had an encounter and from that moment, the little bacteria knew what her mother was referring to because she attacked her as she had never thought. She was surprised that this place was so hostile.

She was able to hide in one place but she knew it wouldn't last long. She was even resigning herself to her life ending, but she did not count on the presence of that young white blood cell who disagreed with her work. That young man was watching her and knew where she was hiding.

He found her and introduced himself and at that moment, seeing that the bacteria was a little girl, he promised to get her out of that event. And with different ropes, the young white blood cell was able to take it to her nose, which was the only place she understood that she could take it so that she could run away. She activated the defense mechanisms so that the child sneezed and thus made the bacteria able to escape. Not without first warning him that she should obey her parents when they told her that the human body was a hostile place.

It turned out that human time passed slower than her time and when she got to her house, she realized from her that she had been missing for years and that her parents were already elderly. She, very sad, was reunited with her parents and asked their forgiveness for her actions. And she sadly she couldn't enjoy her parents for long.
