Four Steps done and one more to go. Beezus grinned upon reading the fifth task. A bedtime story? Like princesses and such? That was just silly..She wanted to tell her bushling a story that happened in reality. And so, she once again pulled out the little stool she sat on earlier and placed it in front of the pot.
She breathed before starting her story.
"Once upon a time," Well..that was just awkward. Oh well..that was her story.
"So, once upon a time little sprout, there were two persons. A boy and a girl." she paused and looked around.
"And well..the two of them didn't get along well at the start." Beezus frowned a bit, where was she getting the plot from?
"Not yet anyway. You see, one day..the girl had a wound on her leg and she needed to go home early." Really Beezus? Really? A voice kept nagging inside her.
"And..err--the boy happened to bump into her on her way home. As they both hate each other, they bantered there and then." Another pause and a hard swallow.
"However, when the boy noticed that the girl was limping, he decided to help her. At first, the girl objected saying that she did not need any help but the boy insisted," the young eaglet smiled weakly and looked at the sprout once more.
"Guess what?" she asked.
"The girl then gave up and the boy carried her until she got home. From then on, they became friends." Heavy sigh.
"Great story huh?" Beezus questioned the little sprout even if she knew that it won't give any answer then she stood up and returned the stool. Afterwards she took off her gloves and placed it on her back pack.
Then she crouched in front of the pot again,
"Too bad though, the boy suddenly disappeared and now the girl's still waiting to see him again," she said as she glanced on her shoes.
"Oh well..good night my little one. I'll see you again. Have a dark slumber.." Beezus added as she grabbed her bag and walked out the Greenhouse.
