Fairy Tale Ending

Fairy Tale Ending
By Jasmine Kanji

The bright sun glistened down on her white pale face. Her copper hair intertwined in the soft green grass. She closed her eyes to feel the hot sun rays on her delicate porcelain skin. She listed to the beauty of the valley, the singing of the birds, the soft rustle of the trees, the splashes of frogs jumping into the pond echoed through her ears.
The wonders of nature so free and beautiful she wonders why her life couldn’t be like this, a tiny little sparkle buzzed around her head singing her name.
“Eliza, Eliza, Eliza” she sat up and looked around to find the tiny little sparkle resting on her keen. Eliza looked down at the tiny sparkle. The glow went away and the sparkle turned into a tiny little girl that was about the same size as your thumb, with bubble gum pink hair and a golden dress she had tiny gold souse and beautiful tiny wings that changed colours in the sun. Eliza couldn’t believe her eyes there was a fairy standing on her leg. The fairy flew up into the air a flew toward Eliza she held her hand out and the fairy gently landed in the palm of her hand and smiled.
“You’re a fairy” Eliza pointed out the fairy chuckled
“Yes I am… I’m some what like a fairy godmother.”
“Really? can you make my issues go away?”
“Things will turn around my dear don’t let one little thing upset you, every thing will be fine” she said
“How do you know?” she questioned
“I know every thing I’m a fairy” she shrugged
“I’m not sure…what happens if he’s not alive”
“He is, stop doubting, every girl has their fairy tale ending, now go home and wait he will be there in the morning” the fairy said softly, Eliza sighed and nodded her head.
“Good now good home and wait for him, he will return from the war.” She said
“Okay” she said with a smile the fairy smiled and her glow slowly came back, the sparkle reappeared and took off into the sun…..
Eliza shot up out of bed looking around her dark bedroom, and looked at the empting spot on the bed. She sighed.
“What a strange dream…a fairy? Yeah im losing it” she mumbled and lay back down thinking of her husband at war, tears filled her eyes.
“He’s not coming back…he’s not alive…he’s dead” she cried
“Who’s dead?” asked a muffled voice from the door way Eliza sat up and looked at the door way shocked , There was her Carlisle alive and smiling at his wife. His black hair messy as ever his face cut and scratched but had all four limbs and was breathing. She was speechless. She jumped out of bed and ran to him and kissed his dry chapped lips he pulled her closer and kissed her. She looked up at him and smiled.
“I’m going to wake up any time now” she said crying he wiped away her tears from her face.
“My love it’s real… I’m here this is no dream” he said and kissed her once more. maybe dreams do come true after all…even though its no fairy tale… it might just have a fairy tale ending…
