Once Upon A Pixie Dust

PROLOGUE

Miho is presenting her work - a story based on Peter Pan, to the Editor-in-Chief of one of the most prestigious publishing companies in Los Angeles...

"Hello, my Wendy! I have something for you!" masiglang sigaw ng batang lalaki pagpasok sa isang pink na kwarto.

"Peter Pan! What' s that?" tanong ng batang babae na tila kagigising lang.

"It's a jar of pixie dust." sagot ng batang lalaki.

"Wow this is a large one. But, Peter Pan, what is this for?"

"Hmm... I don't know. I guess you can use it to make wishes. It's a fairy dust after all."

"Wishes? Just like in fairytales? Hmm.. I like that."

"And just like that, Peter Pan left Wendy and chose to go back in Neverland." pagtatapos ng isang dalaga sa kanyang story presentation.

*crowd's applause*

"I like it! I like how it is anchored in a childhood, Disney-based story. This idea is very refreshing.  It's a unique way to send our message and highlight our theme, which is reality in contrast with childhood dreams. " sabi ng isang babaeng nakasalamin

"Thank you so much, Ma'am. I will do my best to make this story one of our best."

"I know that you will. But before I adjourn this meeting, I have a question for you, dear." pahabol na tanong ng babaeng nakasalamin. 

"If you are that little girl and you have that jar of pixie dust, what would you wish for?"

Miho thought of the countless times she had wished upon the pixie dust. And every time she does, she only wished for one thing...

"Take me to Neverland and help me find my lost boy, Peter Pan."

"What an interesting answer, Ms. Kim. I'm looking forward to working with you then."

When the meeting was over, she giddily reached for her phone and called someone.

"Oh my God! Where are you? I have good news! Oh my God, Oh my -"
"Hey, hey, Miho, calm down. Haha."
"I couldn't! Oh my God! Where are you? Let's go out for dinner. At our fave resto. My treat."
"Where are you?" asked by the guy on the other line
"I'm at the lobby now, going out of the building. You? Where are ---"

In that moment, Miho wasn't able to move or say anything, 'cause standing before her is the guy she was just talking to on her phone, holding a bouquet of blue roses.

"I'm here. Just waiting for my favorite author to come out. Congratulations on your first book, Miracle."

Slowly, she smiled sweetly but she just can't hide the tears that started rolling down her cheeks. She abruptly ran to him and hugged him tight.

"And I guess after wishing for that one thing countless times, the pixie dust has finally done its magic."
