In a small town called Greenden lived a girl with a stone for a heart. She went by the name of bonnet, though her smile could warm the soul. Still she has a heart of stone, she was at a loss, nothing she does melts the yellow stone in her chest... To make it red like the others, was she too weird? That her own heart had to stand out, when she so desperately wanted to blend in...
So she walks along the side of the road in her grays and blues. Just as when her heart's about to burst, Bonnet see's a man in grays and blues of his own. As the others walk past, she stands looking into his eyes, there's a dim yellow light flickering... Instead of feeling envy she just felt pain, when he says
"A heart of gold, the cost is great but it's worth every cent."
She looked at the man with the same heart as hers. She finds herself sitting next to him taking his hands into her own. She beams as she listens to his tails and for the first time in a long time... Bonnet was happy to have that yellow stone beating in her chest. Cause if she was like the rest, she wouldn't of met the man with the heart of gold.
