A/N: To my first readers, thank you very much in having interest for my little short story. I'll give my best to make an awesome book. ( for my standards) :)
*** *** *** ***
A cheerful sight can be viewed on top of the balcony of an abandon house above the hill. With such clear blue sky, fresh green grass, a large old oak tree that dances with the wind passing by, and a beautiful lake at the bottom of the hill.
Some say that the lake has magical powers that can change certain events in a way. No one knows how, but with its mysterious origins, the local towns people try very hard to hide the lake from younger generations to come.
This place was isolated from the modern world with tall mountains and surround by a thick forest. A few people only lived here and only fewer from the outside world know of this place, it's a perfect vacation spot.
One day, a teenage boy name, Xavier, was in a hurry to finish packing up the car together with his girlfriend, Ysabelle. They're preparing to depart for their annual camping trip. This will be their 3rd, and as promise by Xavier, that they will spend the whole trip enjoying it.
"Ysabelle" with a sexy voice Xavier shouted.The boy was nerviously and obviously holding something behind his back trying very hard to hide it from his girlfriend.
As Ysabelle walks towards the patio of their house, she notices the old oak tree at the top of a hill, was dancing with grace together with the summer breeze like during her childhood years.
* Flashback*
The sky was gray, loud roaring thunder spread throughout the heavens as heavy rain began to pour. As a little girl, Ysabelle was consumed with fear and shock with each bolt of lighting chasing her, trying again and again to hit with each smite.
Running with all her might, forcing her self to the limit just to be safe from the storm approaching. As thick dense forest became a downpour of rain.
On top of a hill near their house she stopped. As under the oak tree, the little girl found safety from the storm. Hiding in a small gap inside the tree made her realize that a once small and helpless sprout would become a huge provider in the future.
As the rain became heavier each passing second. Ysabelle withered away into slumber, spending the whole night in silence even with the crashing of the storm.
The sound of early birds chirping and a dim shimmer awoken the little girl inside the tree. Hunger greeted her as she crawled out of the hallow. As she stood up outside she felt immediate weak and collapse to the ground.
As a few moments gone by, a familiar face was above her with a worried face. The little boy next door was trying so hard carrying her head to his thighs to give her elevation and room to breath. With everything that happen with her she thanked God and Xavier, her neighbor, her friend, her love.
The only thing she could remember is the smile of Xavier face watch the huge oak tree dancing with the wind.
*End of flashback*
She smiled while remembering it. As that day the two little kids grew closer to each other to the point were everything was alined and they eventually fell inlove with one another.
"Ysabelle, I want to show you something." Xavier said it with unease feeling.
