Have Courage (Natepat)

Nate was born into a loving family. His mother and father were open minded people, raising him to be kind, have courage, and to believe in magic. Because magic is always around, his mother always said.
At a young age, he loses his mother. His father remarried. The woman seemed nice, so did her children. But after his fathers passing, they lose a lot of money. The nice women Nate met changes. She forces Nate to do all the work around the house, since they couldn't afford servants anymore.
She even forced him out of his room he had since he was a child to the attic. But still, he is kind to them, he does the work with a smile on his face. He has friends, they may be animals, but still they are friends.
Soon news is heard that the prince is throwing a ball, and Nate is eager to go, wanting to be free for one night. But he is forbidden by his stepmother.
He is devastated, and cries alone on the garden.
But remember, magic is always around.
