She grew up thinking she was less. She never smiled again when she reached high school. But when she did, it lights up the whole neighborhood.
She met a broken boy. He fought her battles for and with her. He slayed her dragons and fought off her bad guys - even in times when he couldn't stop his own.
And for the time being the princess was saved by him, her superman.
By the time she started smiling again, he started losing his battles. Until he tried the ability of flight to escape - and he did.
He didn't fly. Oh, he fell.
He plummeted
And she saw.
She saved him, somehow. She was able to call the ambulance and they came in time, and they brought him to the emergency room. He isn't well but he is alive.
She cries besides his bed every night.
She wishes he would wake up.
And when he did. Not a single adjective could ever be enough to describe how joyful and grateful her smile was as she hugged him.
He was her superman
She was his princess
Somehow that was enough for the both of them.
