Heartsmith

The market that morning was as crowded as usual. Many people could be seen walking here and there to do their business. The seller shouted and advertised their goods to the passing customer. In that over crowded market street stood a young girl. Her auburn red hair were hidden under her red cloak. She wore a matching red puffy dress with a big white beautiful ribbon on her neck and a milk white apron. Her slender pale white hand grabbed her basket full of her selling goods. She smiled as she took out one of the 'heart' she was going to sell.

"Would you like to buy a 'heart'?" she asked to each people passing in front of her. "I have quiet a few beauties to offer." Her smiled was ignored by most of the people. But she kept advertising the 'heart' she sold. Till she saw a troubled looking man.

"Sir, would you like to buy a heart?" The girl showed one of the red warm heart to the man.

The man smiled to the girl as he put his hand on his chest. "Do you also happen to repair broken heart?"

The girl shook her head slightly. "Oh, no! I just sell 'heart', sir..."

"I see..." The man answer weakly.

"But..." The girl pointed to a less crowded road, "If you go down that road you will find the Heartsmith."

"Heartsmith?" The man asked as he never heard anyone who could repair a broken heart before.

"Thank you young lady..." The man bowed to the 'heart' seller girl.

The girl smiled genuenly to the man. "You're welcome, sir..."

The man walked down the road pointed by the girl till he found an old looking shop with dusty plank that read "Heartsmith"

His heart thumped anxiously as his hand shakily opened the shop front door. The first thing he saw inside was a tanned man soaked in sweat. His coal color haired was in a big mess. Almost all part of his face covered by the googles hanging on his nose. His hand, covered by a sand color leather gloves, skillfully fixed the warm glowing red heart.

The man shifted his leg as the other man in front of him didnt even realize his presence. "Um, excuse me..."

"Huh?" The other man frowned, the man almost decided to go out when the other man took off his googles revealing a pair of warm black orbs, his lips formed a really big smile. He stood up from his working desk going toward the man.

"Welcome sir! What can I do for you?" His smile made the man felt better already.

The man pointed outside, "A young girl told me that you repair hearts?"

"Yup! That's what I do! I'm the Heartsmith. Pleased to meet you." The heartsmith once again gave the man a reassuring smile.

"Pleased to meet you,too..." The man for the first time smiled since his heart broken.

"What seems to be the problem?" The heartsmith asked going straight to the point. The man in front of him brought his 'heart' and showed the almost broken to two heart of his. The heartsmith observed it thoroughly. His brow frowned deeper the more he observed the heart.

"Oh,boy! This one looks pretty damaged..." He announced at last. The man felt down almost immediately. Looking again at his broken heart, he personally thought it wouldnt be able to be repaired anymore. He wouldnt be able to love anyone anymore with that broken heart.
