A song

The glaring sun shines upon the cabin, the surroundings looked magical as it had many sky-rise trees, different flowers that wouldn't usually appear out of nowhere. Inside the cabin, the dim light of moonlight passes through the small window and lightens up the dark cabin. A bed with curtain lace drawn to the cover is currently inside it, the table which is placed beside the table with a unique flower on top of it.

Inside the white colored delicate vase, the flower looked a bit like a rose, yet had more petals on it, the densely packed pink petals and fragrant smell spread across the room. The wind blows the curtain covering the bed, a bewitching face can be seen sleeping at the moment, her violet colored hair descends at her waist.

The weird thing is that she`s been sleeping for about five years now, no sign of consciousness can be traced upon her face. Maybe fate might arrange something for her, right?

The charm of the forest where the cabin is located is really mesmerizing, who would've guessed that this forest contains such a secret. A silver haired young boy can be seen running at this forest right now, he looked a bit dazed as he desperately ran forward. Then, his tract slowed down, he'd notice that the path he has been desperately running towards has been different.

You can see that the surroundings here are much more organized. The path was soft with dirt, on each side, flowers were placed carefully as it has been meticulously grown, colors vary from blue to red, red to pink, and many more. Sunlight peeked through the trees, making the flowers look like they were sparkling. The path curved ahead, leading to a small cabin in the woods.

The boy walked dazedly to the cabin, he hesitantly opened the door and walked straight inside. He surveys the surroundings and sees that nobody was around. Yet he was not stupid, even with strong emotions he had been constantly feeling, how could a cabin with fresh flowers surrounds from outside to the delicate flowers inside be an ownerless property?

He walks around and sees a room, the door has vines lightly draped like an uncover mystery, it doesn't look messy at all but an intricate veil that wants to cover up something. He walked straight to the door and opened it.

As he goes inside, the first thing he notices is the light breathing inside, if you don't focus then you'll probably miss it. He carefully walked straight and lifted the curtain covering the bed. His hands froze midair as he looked at the bewitching girl sleeping.

Her skin that rivals snow white, her lips that red as blood. She possessed a foxy beauty – sharp and clever with an undeniable allure. A cascade of vibrant violet hair framed a face sculpted with high cheekbones and a delicately pointed chin, lending her an almost feline grace.

It`s such a pity that this beauty is currently asleep right now or else the beauty of flowers would be shun without further explanation. The boy walks quietly as if he is afraid of waking up the girl—afraid of ruining this tranquility.

He stayed still for about an hour, yet he still didn't notice any sign of consciousness to the sleeping girl, he began to feel restless and anxiousness creeped to him. He tried to gently nudge the girl, but still—she doesn't wake up. The gentle nudging becomes shaking, her smooth purple hair begins to tangle and his eyes begin to secrete tears, he doesn't know, but this beauty has already begun to take place in his desolate heart.

After so much effort, he still hasn't woken up the girl and his tears fall down at a rapid speed. "Why...why? why aren't you waking up" the words comes out unconsciously from his lips, the despair and grief he felt from his father's sudden suicide began to crawl in his heart, and it controls his emotions. The emotions are already pent-up, so his tiny body suddenly collapses and joins the slumber of the girl.

Morning crept in, painting the room with the soft blush of dawn. The first rays of sunshine, like golden fingers, reached through the window, gently nudging the boy from his slumber. His eyelashes fluttered, then, with a sudden intake of breath, his eyes snapped open. He sat bolt upright, his heart hammering against his ribs. Beside him, the girl lay still, her face serene in sleep, oblivious to his growing panic.

His gaze darted around the unfamiliar room, a whirlwind of questions and anxieties swirling within him. "Where was he again? oh right, I've fainted. Is she awake?". He looks at the sleeping girl in the bed and the question has already been answered. His body began to tremble, a silent earthquake threatening to erupt.

Desperate, grasping for something, anything, to anchor him to reality, his mind landed on the only thing that ever seemed to quiet the storm inside him: music. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and began to hum. It was a simple melody, almost childlike, a lullaby his father used to sing, but it was his lullaby now, his secret song against the darkness.
