The day when S.S's wish was fulfilled

 


It was a sunny day, and S.S the little girl was jumping up and down.

"Why are you so excited?" S.S's mother asked.

"Today, I am going to see the meteor shower! The Delta Aquarius meteor shower!" S.S exclaimed.

"Oh! I hope it'll not be rainy or cloudy, and really, the weather man had announced yesterday, that Tamil Nadu will be having a terrible thunderstorm," Said S.S's mother, laughing. "I don't want you crying all day. I want you to be a brave girl."

S.S did pout, but she tried to be brave. 

The evening had arrived, and S.S drank her milk, did homework and rushed to the terrace.

She saw gigantic clouds moving in the sky, bTut she didn't beleive that a thunderstorm was going to arrive. She enjoyed cycling. Then, it became dark. Like all the days, dad came to the terrace.

"S.S, come down, now. It's getting dark, and a thunderstorm is coming soon." Said dad, pulling S.S towards the terrace entrance. 

"No, dad! A meteor shower is going to come! Could you ever believe it? Ring mom right now!" S.S said, pulling dad towards the pillar. 

But now, S.S didn't believe her self! Because, she already saw lightning coming from the other side! S.S started to cry. She was really a cry baby, and for small things she would cry like anything. And now, she was talking about the meteor shower all day and now, what? It's gonna rain? She really cried loudly, that almost one country would be able to hear her cry!

Dad closed his ears as he carried S.S back to her house. S.S was so upset that she almost refused to eat, but she was compelled to. After the meal, she had a sweet sleep. Whenever S.S slept merrily, it meant that the next day will be totally happy for her. 

But the next day wasn't happy, it was FANTASTIC!

S.S and her family had their meal in the cool, wet terrace, enjoying the meteor shower. S.S was all smiles, pointing at the amazing, flashing, racing meteors. 

" The meteor showers! Shooting stars! I'm going to make a wish! I want....." S.S said joining her hands. 

"I want a big doll house!" 

S.S then gasped at the most brightest meteor, which almost hit grandma's head.

"Whoa! That was close. How could it get here?" Grandma exclaimed, rushing to the small shed present in the terrace. 

But actually the meteor which almost hit grandma was not a meteor, it was something better....

It was a fairy! S.S couldn't beleive her eyes! She was a fan of fairies and princesses. 

"Hello, my dearest S.S! Your most favourite thing will arrive soon!" The fairy said, waving her wand.

Everybody was not able to understand anything. Soon, it was late and S.S was fast asleep on dad's lap. Everybody returned to their house.

The next day, S.S was so surprised! But why?

The fairy had arrived and was greeted warmly with a cup of coffee, some strawberries and chocolate syrup. She then turned to S.S.

"Oh! The little girl! Good morning S.S! And here's your gift, the thing you had wished for, for the past 4 years....." 

As the fairy waved her wand, a gift box appeared. S.S ran to it, and removed the wrapper, feeling so excited. Mom and dad knew that today will be a happy day for S.S. 

The doll house! S.S hugged the fairy. 

S.S and her family lived happily ever after! 😊😊

Long Lost Sleep

  After a long, exhausting day, the only thing all of us look forward to is SLEEP. So, as soon as you finish off the last crumbs on your dinner plate, you fling yourself onto your bed, rest yourself in a comfortable position, get your pillow nice and fluffed up, and throw the blankets on yourself. But then... You just realised that you still have your big, wobbly earrings on. So you throw back the blankets and remove your earrings and leave them in their box. And then you're back in your bed, and just as your eyelids are about to close... You realise that you haven't brushed your teeth. So, yet again, your throw back the blankets and get off the bed, letting the annoying, creaky sound fill your head. And then you throw open the door to your bathroom, get your brush ready and squeeze toothpaste onto it, but... The tube seemed to have a hole on the back, which you sadly hadn't noticed. And you get toothpaste all over your hands. Fuming, you wash your hands and get things done...

So Close, Yet So Far

  What you knew you had right beside you What you never knew might leave you What you had neglected for days What you wished was still there, within your gaze. That miniscule amount of hope  That you feel lingering close by You could open out your arms, embrace it, But suddenly it's high in the sky. Once within your grasp, But now away from you, Don't waste a moment on a wee gasp, Time won't stop, and the moving hope too. Each moment is to be caught, Each memory to be cherished, Hold them carefully in your arms, Before they shall vanish. The consistent inkling when you feel, Something close, yet so far, Is only because you know yourself, That it is within your grasp, but not within your confidence. If you're positive enough that you can hold it, The 'it' that is mysterious and something only you know, You can hold the precious 'it', Clutch it tight, don't let it go. You must be close to the end of the day, With its cliffs and slopes and Rocky slides,...

Stars

  Shining in the vast night sky, I see them from afar. Dominated by the brighter moon, There glimmer the stars. Mostly hidden by the cruel shadows, Or by the thick, misty clouds. But they do not give up, they still glimmer on, They make their voice be heard loud. Even though they're hardly seen, Even though they're hardly thought of, They know that someday they will be, Thought of, honoured and loved. So take an inspiration from stars, Show your true essence, Continue to shimmer, ignore the darkness, Because one day it'll fear your presence.
