It was another old boring day, same streets and sky, same weather and same old people.
Everyday until one day, a very particular day.

I was walking down the same road that I always go down when I'm headed back from work, same shops on the left all but one.

I looked on the outside, a beautiful box covered in jewels and different materials were on the outside. I decided I was going to go in and have a look, there was necklaces, rings, brackets and more. As I turned I saw the most beautiful box light up before my eyes, I went to inspect it like any other person would.

The box was covered in hearts and little white gems and silk based, I opened the box as I found the most beautiful crystal heart, it was a beautiful ruby red colour.

I reached out my hand to touch it, just before I touched it... Shattered into pieces the noise made her jump, she had to buy the box otherwise she would feel guilty so she headed to the shop keeper.

The shop keeper was wearing like a cat mask with this incredibly large smile on it, it freaked me out quite a lot just by thinking of it, as I spoke I said about the crystal heart and promised to pay all that needed for it, the shopkeeper grinned and said "no problem, take it as a gift I insist."

That's strange, a beautiful box so delicate and priceless given for free.
I spoke once again and said "Thank you, that is really kind of you."

I headed back into my house and put the box on my bed and looked at the box more, a big yawn hit me.

I better be going to bed. She got dressed into her silky nighty and turned the lights off.
