Esbee gazed at the window. She saw a young girl running and giggling chasing a white fluffy dog. She wished that she could join them. Her eyes began to water from exhaustion. It is 3 in the morning. This is the third night she had been awake to work from her marble crusted table nicely manicured with leather trims at the side. She is handling a high profile case on graft involving VIPs and VVIPs and the trial dates are just around the corner. She knows she just had to fight the sleepiness and tiredness. A short snooze will do, she thought to herself, allowing her body to reenergize to last her for another 3 to 4 hours. The little magical house appeared right in front of her eyes. Everything seems so familiar and cosy. The young girl appears once again. This time, she is standing right outside the house together with two adults, her parents. They are exchanging smiles and hugs. Esbee's vision begins to become blurry. A sharp sound of an alarm clock pierces through her eardrums. She squints and quickly realises that she has just awoken from a dream. A dream into her young self and the little magical house.

A "Beauty and the Beast" retelling. Once upon a time, there was a boy in love with a Lilly. Not a flower, but a girl. It all started one beautiful autumn day. One autumn day that would change the boy's life forever. For on this day, he met Lilly, a beautiful girl with an ugly secret. A secret that threatens to destroy her if she cannot find a way to break the curse forced upon her. Filled with secrets, lies, and love, this short story captures the essence of the original fairy tale with an entirely new twist. ~~~ "Hello, my name is Lilly. What's yours? Is that your mother? I only just came to live here with Ivy, and I don't know many people that come to visit her yet. Do you come often? If you do, we could be friends! Would you like that? To be friends? Why, don't you speak at all? And you should really close your mouth; it is impolite to stare like that." Ivy called out to her from the doorway of the cottage. "Lilly, if you want him to speak, you must first cease speaking." Both of the women were laughing at the children, and Lilly blushed at the comment. "Sorry! I just haven't seen anyone my age yet, and I got excited, which happens rather easily. It reminds me a bit of puppies I've read about that just get so excited that they- oops. I'm doing it again. Sorry," she said with a shy smile. Adam, who had been standing there staring, just as she had pointed out, finally found his voice long enough to tell her his name. She beamed at him, saying that they would be great friends. She seized his hand and began tugging him toward the woods behind the cottage, shouting to Ivy and his mother, "We won't go far! Be back soon!" ~~~
