"Once upon a time in a magical world, there lived a princess who was clever and compassionate. She was full of love and caring but one day, she fell in love with an ordinary man. It was against the law to fall in love with someone, but she did. Despite all the challenges, she chose him." I narrated the story to the kids. Everyone was listening to the story as if they were the main characters of the story. Attentive and fully engaged.
"What happened next?" one kid asked in desperation.
"Where they were together?" the other one.
"Why is their love forbidden? is it because she is a princess and he is an ordinary man?" another kid asked.
"No, no. Their love is forbidden because the ordinary man is a coward. The princess chose him over everything but he chose his insecurities over her and that's what makes their love forbidden." I said, lost in my thoughts.
"So, did they have a happy ending?" one kid asked from the corner of the room.
"No, at the end the princess gave up and went back to her kingdom to rule the world," I replied.
"Ohhhhhh," everyone said in a unanimous sad tone.
I chuckled.
"I know, it's sad but, what's important is the moral of the story. You need to be brave enough to take a step so that you can have a happy ending with your princess and not end up like the man in the story." I said hoping that they would understand my point.
"Mr. Parker" a voice came from the door.
It was Ms. Teresa. In charge of this orphanage. She is around 50 years old and she is a very warm and sweet person to be around.
"Yes, Ms. Teresa," I acknowledged with a small smile.
"Your secretary is looking for you near reception," she said with a warm smile.
I glanced at the watch and figured out that it was almost time to leave.
"Ah! yeah! I have an important meeting to attend this afternoon. I had totally forgotten about that" I said while feeling embarrassed.
I've done this previously, so it's not entirely new to me. When I'm around these children, I lose track of time. The purity of these children enriches my existence. That is why I come here at least once a month to spend time with these kids, give them gifts, tell them tales, and sometimes we even play football, and chess, and participate in other activities. I adore them, and I believe they adore me as well.
"They love you, Mr. Parker" it was Ms. Teresa's voice.
"Huh?!"
"Kids! Mr. Parker. They all love you and you are their inspiration." she said with a fond smile.
