Red silently gazed out the window of her classroom and looked out at the trees below. the early morning sunshine beamed through as the breeze softly tussled her hair. the air was crisp and cool contrasting the warmth of her pink sweater. the bell rang violently signaling the beginning of class. 

by the time Lunch rolled around Red was exhausted. her previous class had been math with Mr. Enderman, he was a strict teacher who didnt take too kindly to those mathmaticly challenged.  slowly she made her way to her favorite class excited to contine her art project. she pulled the canvas from the corner of the room and continued to paint. Mrs.sandstone looked over her shoulder to evaluate her work thus far. 

" Red Apple your painting is turning out wonderfull" The teacher said with a smile

" Thank you "

" its reallu great however i feel as if somthing is missing from your painting "

Red looked back at her peice and studied the brushstrokes carefully. the painting depicted a flowering meddow with a small cottage in the center. lots of mushrooms, flowers and ivy sorounded the structure  detailing her peice nicely. Red looked back at her teacher with visible confusion. her peice was extremly detailed with lots covering the canvas.

" your peice while detailed feels somewhat empty. why dont you spend this week finding somtjing to fill that empty space"

Red was still confused but listend to her teacher anyways. 

hours later school was finally over. Quickly she gatherd her school work and began her walk home. as she wlked along the road  she noticed that her normal route was blocked  by a huge tree that had fallen on the road. she looked around to find a way through when she spotted a small path near the base of the forest. with determination to get home she trudged through the musty trees .  after a few minutes she saw a clearing  ahead of her. shen she spepedout into the clearing what she saw took her breath away. 

infront of her was a  feild of sunflowers streaching as far as the eye could see. the tall golden flowers shone like diamonds . staring at the sight before her she almost didnt notice the blonde-haired girl walking toward her .

" Excuse me " a voice said sofltly 

Turning to where the voice came from Red suddely met eyes with a beautiful girl. her hair was the color of the morning sunshine abeaming golden as it sofly cascaded down her back. a small yellow ribbon tied her hair into 2 low hanging ponytails that draped around her shoulders. she wore a long lemon-colored skirt that hung below her knees. above the skirt she wore a puffy white blouse that ruffled at the top exposing her shoulders. around her waist completing the outfit was a brown leather belt. in her hands was a basket that carried a bouquet of sunflowers. 

Red gazed at the girl entranced by her beauty 

" excuse me " the girl said again 

" oh im sorry " she said shaken out of her trance " am i in your way ?"

" oh no not at all i was just wondering how you got here "

" what do you mean?"

" this is my familys sunflower farm "

" oh im sorrry if im trespassing theres a big tree bloking the path to my house and i saw a clearing through the woods and somehow ended up  here" Red expliained panicking

the Girl sofltly giggled cutely at how paniced she was 

" its allright. follow me " she said as she grabbed her hand and pulled her into the field.

the tall flowes sorounded them as they walked through the feild . after a few minutes they exited the feild and stood in front of the main house. the house was a baby blue with a white porch in front. on the porch an old golden retriver was resting in the afternoon sun.  

not far from the house was a road that Red could take home. 

" thank you for helping me "

" no problem" slowly the girl handed her a flower from her basket " my name is Golden Apple by the way "

" im Red Apple" she said as she took the flower 

" Well Red Apple you are welcome to return to the farm whenever you'd like"

and with that the beautiful girl named Golden apple skipped away into the feild. 

Red's thoughts were filled with the girl as she made her way home. her mother scolded her harshly for returning home late. she finished her homework quickly and got changed to help her mother outside. she grabed a step ladder and her gloves as she ender the orchard. all around her hung apples of diffrent color and size. even while working hard picking apples with her family her thoughts were wholely consumed by the girl she'd met.
