On a Sunday morning, I was reading my favorite book about
fairies in our garden. I love reading books especially the
fantasy one. When I was a little girl I was thinking of
myself as a fairy and flying around the most wonderful
garden in the world. And I also wish that I could meet a
fairy in person. A fairy that grants a person 3 wishes. Is
that possible? A fairy that can grant 3 wishes?
I laughed out loud and stopped to see if someone is there
watching her. I chuckled. A fairy that can grants 3 wishes.
I said smiling to myself.
Suddenly, it started to rain. "Oh!" I said. I started to run
toward our house then-
"Ouch!"
Something just hit my head. What is that thing that hit me?
I looked down and saw a small - what is that? A thin
butterfly? When I was about to touch it, it looked at me,
but not the same eyes as a bug but a human eyes! A winged
person? A fairy!
I rubbed my eyes and looked at it again, but now the tiny
creature isn't looking at me. It seems like it was hurt and
need me to heal him or her. When I was about to picked it
up, I feel my hands trembling.
I immediately arrange a soft bed using small cloth and a
pillow. "Hope its okay." I said worriedly. I put my head
down for a while and thinking of sleeping. I was about to
fell asleep when it turned its head towards me.
"Hey they little creature," I said. "Are you alright now?"
"I think so," the fairy said. When I heard its voice I
realize it’s a boy or a man. I don't know. "Thanks for
saving me back there. And sorry for falling in your head."
I smiled. I can't believe I'm talking to real fairy right
now. It's so tiny and so cute! "That's alright" I finally
said. "Do you want something? A tea? A cookie?"
"What's that?" he said sitting up and checking his beautiful
blue wings. Wish I could have something like that. He saw me
looking at his wings and smiled. "Why does a human doesn't
have wings?"
"Uhm? I don't know. That's what God created." I answered
him. "Oh! You need to rest you know."
He smiled at me and I blushed. Even though he's small I can
see his face clearly and he is truly handsome with a black
hair and fair skin. "Thanks for worrying. And now, where's
the tea and cookie you promise me?"
I laughed and stand up and went to the kitchen to get some
tea and cookies. Wait a minute! How can he eat this big
cookie and drink the tea? I remembered the mini tea set I
have when I was a little girl. Where did my mother hide it?
I went to the basement and started looking for my tea set.
At the very bottom of the boxes I was looking at my tea set.
I smiled and started pulling the box. I cleaned it and
started placing the cookie in the small plate and putting
tea in the small tea cup.
"Hmm, this is truly delicious," he said. "By the way, what's
your name?"
"I’m Kady," I said. "And you?"
"I'm Cole," he said not looking at me.
"Can I ask you something?"
"Sure,"
"Are you a fairy that grants 3 wishes?" I finally ask.
He looked at me and smiled. "There's no fairy that grants 3
wishes. I think what you are thinking is a genie."
My cheeks turned red and I didn't talk until he is finished
eating. "Thanks for the wonderful foods. Right now, I need
to rest. Tomorrow evening I will leave this place and be
back to my home."
"You’re leaving?" I asked sadly.
"Of course! A fairy like me can't live with a human like
you."
"What do you mean a human like me?" I said my anger rising.
A human like me! Those a fairy thinks a human is a monster?
"Sorry to offend you but that's not what I mean. I can't
live with a human and fairies can't live the way human does
their living."
"Oh, is that so. I understand. So, if you were given a
chance to change your life, what would it be? For me, I want
to be a fairy just like you." I said. Would a fairy want to
be human? Maybe?
"I want to be human just like you," he said looking at me.
We stared at each other for a while then I looked away. My
heart is pounding. Why is that? Can a human fell in love
with a fairy? But for me, it's like he is not a fairy. When
I'm with him, it feels like I was with another human being.
That night we talked and laughed. The following morning, he
is better and can fly already. "You know Kady, if I was a
human and I met you. I might fall in love with you."
I blushed. "Why?"
"Because, I never met someone as you. No fairy is the same
as you. You are easy to talk with and I'm -" he stopped.
I didn't say anything because I know he will not continue
what he is saying. "You know Cole. When I'm with you, I feel
safe and it feels like I'm with another human not a fairy."
"Really?" he said and he sited at my shoulder.
I nodded. "I wish you were human." I whispered. I don't know
if he hears it but he just fly again around the room. I'm
really glad my parents are out of town.
Evening came and I became sad. "Thanks for everything Kady.
I really appreciate your concern and the way you take care
of me. I will never forget you."
I smiled and just said, "Your welcome."
"If I'm human right now, I would say I love you but a fairy
can't be with a human." he said flying higher.
I looked up and said, "Can't I have just 1 wish?"
"Yes you can. But only one," he said flying lower so he can
face to face with me.
"Promise me, you will grant it," I said.
"I promise," he said crossing his heart. "Tell me what it
is."
"I wish - I want you to be human," I said looking down. "No,
I want you to be born the same year as I was and have family
and friends. I want you to be human for all your life."
His eyes widened and he suddenly smiled. "That's the most
wonderful wish I ever heard." He then whispered to my ear,
"I love you Kady." He clapped his hands and it feels like
I'm falling into a deep sleep.
I woke up and I was in our garden my favorite book on my
lap. Is that a dream? If it was, it was the most beautiful
dream I ever had. I smiled and think of Cole. His face is so
handsome that when he became human, girls will be drooping
around him. I laughed.
Five days later, it's my birthday and my mom arranged my
party for me. I already forgot about my dream and about
Cole.
"Kady," my mom called. "I want you to meet somebody." I went
to my mom and smiled at her and her guest.
"This is Mr. and Mrs. Anderson," she said.
"Happy birthday Kady," Mrs. Anderson said. "Wait! Where's
our son? There he is. Cole,"
I was stunned to hear his name. The same name as my fairy. I
looked and saw their son. His face, his hair and his eyes
are the same as Cole's. I was staring at him and never
thought that his parents are looking at me then smiled.
"Maybe, we should left this two alone," Mrs. Anderson said
then his husband and my mom left us alone.
"Want to go outside?" he said. Even his voice is the same as
Cole's.
"Sure," I finally said. I was now not looking at him and
don't want to look at him.
"It's a lovely evening, isn't it?" he said smiling at me.
"Happy birthday by the way."
"Uh - thank you," I said. I sited at the grass and he sited
beside me.
"Don't worry, I won't fall on your head this time," he said
smiling.
I turned my head quickly and looked at him. "Cole?"
"Yes?"
"I - I-" I started but words doesn't want to come out.
He holds my hand and said, "I love you Kady. And now I'm
human, my dream of having you in my life will come true."
Tears suddenly flow in my eyes. "I can't believe it. I
thought it’s all a dream and I can't see you anymore."
"With my magic, I grant your wish. And my whole life, I'm
waiting for this day to come," he said. "Do you love me?"
I smiled and said, "What if I said no?"
"Then I will became a fairy again and - "but then he looked
at me and he laughed. "I'm only joking. And I can't -"
"I love you," I said. He holds my chin up and kissed me
softly.
"If I have my magic right now, I will make the days came
quickly and I’ll stopped at our wedding day," he said
smiling.
I smiled and hugged him. "You are the most wonderful guy I
ever met."
"And you Kady, is the most beautiful girl I ever met." he
said.
From that day on, we became couples and promise that we will
love each other until the end.
