Garden of Aeternus

Carnation

Some days, Gladiolus and Daisy did not agree on some things. Some days, they had their quarrels, and they had their tears together. But despite this, the two always found ways to forgive and forget. The two had always found ways to love each other more rather than resent each other.

One day, Daisy looked towards the sky, and noticed a distant world. It was so distant, it seemed like a mere spec of dust in their view. Gladiolus grew concern, telling her to avoid looking at it. Daisy had her curiosity, but Gladiolus merely wanted to protect her from the obscene, from pains.

Daisy ignored it, as did Gladiolus. There was no need to look to other worlds, after all. Everything they could ever want was right there with them. There was no need to look to another world for any reason. Neither doubted each other, and so they lived in joy within their own garden. They had no need of anything else.

Some days, another world would seem to appear in the sky, but they always remained very distant. There was never a reason to worry. The security and comfort of their own world was all that they wanted.

As time passed, Gladiolus decided it was time for him to venture into Daisy's world to visit her. Daisy felt immeasurable happiness. Gladiolus felt intrigued and content. It was the first time he had journeyed such a tremendous distance, yet it was worth every mile. The two held each other by the hand, vowing they would soon be in the same world together.

Although slow, Gladiolus began to look to figure out ways for them to live within the same world permanently. This brought a smile to Daisy. As the two began to plan things out, many more flowers started to grow within their garden.

To their surprise, a vast amount of pastel carnations had manifested before their eyes. The two kissed, more certain than ever now that they would always be together for eternity.
