The Little Fairy

The little fairy flied with her mesmerizing wings

Tiara on her head flickered and the trees whispered, “It’s good in you!”

She was humming as she made her way up to the starry sky

“Mr. Moon, good night to you!”



Then she flew to the heart of the forest

Her toe doubtfully touched the water, felt how cold it was

One minute later she danced on the surface of the lake

The sleeping swans soon awaked and joined her



After reveling with her new friends, she continued her little journey

Took a glance at the houses she passed

When she saw them lying on their bed

She wished them to have sweet dreams tonight

“Mom… Mom!! Come here!”

“…Oh, Tom! Are you okay? What happened?”

“I saw someone flying behind the window! Could it be fairy?”

“Fairy?”

“Yes! I read that a lot in the book you gave to me!”

“Oh, Tom. I’m sure you were just dreaming. Now get back to sleep.”

“But, Mom…”

“Sssh. Sleep tight, Tom. Tomorrow is your first day in school.”

The little fairy let out a relief sigh

She carefully glanced at the boy

However she shouldn’t be seen by any human

But unfortunately the boy hasn’t slept yet, and the window didn’t hide her body like the wall did

The boy’s hazel eyes widened in shock and he was scared, yet contended

The little fairy should have deleted the boy’s memory about seeing her

At last, she only giggled and ogled the boy, leaving him wondering whether that was a reality or his crazy dream only.
