"What should I name it?" Infinity asked, way too excited about her own idea.
"Um, I don't know, anything" I replied with a shrug.
Her expression said: I did not ask for a shrug. I want an appropriate name.
"Okay," I said immediately, regretting my response the next minute. "How about 'Rick's idea?"
But she had already bent down and started writing. After she was done, I looked over her shoulder to have a glance. The title said:
It was his idea!
That looked just fine so I gave her a nod and she continued further:
Today Richard Blackwell (Rick) came up with this brilliant idea called memory box. In that, we can write happenings from our daily life in colorful pages and preserve chunks of memories in handwritten chits(creativity thoughts put in by me). Quite similar to beloved letters but with a sprinkle of innovation.
It was her idea. I swear. My mind cannot conjure up crazy stuff such as a thing called memory box. And I think she's being humble. She already is humble. But like giving me the credit for something so good. My reply to her was 'Am I worth the credit?'
And she had shut me up and said, "You're worth a lot. It just takes time to realise"
God, I loved her for it.
She kept writing:
So much better than a boring, plain diary. Thanks Rick.
I know it just takes a pinch of wonder to create extraordinary.
-Infinity forever.
