It was an odd place. A beautiful but odd place. The sky was yellow in color. The clouds were pink. There were lots of flowers. I was in a field of flowers but in that field was one very large tree. A tree so large it can stack up to 30 large elephants. Maybe even higher. And this was what had happened.

Everyone was racing up to a very large tree. I was curious myself to see what is up there. So I climb as high as I can get. It was easy at the beginning since I had to climb on the trunk of the tree. The indents of the tree were big enough for my hands and feet to hold. I manage to go up much more further.But I was also getting tired. When at last I finally saw I was getting near at a branch. A very large tree branch. It was odd cause there was a tree on that branch bearing fruits of apples! I was feeling tired and hungry but seeing those apples made me run towards the tree. I then reached for an apple but a little girl stopped me. She was wearing a blue cotton dress with laces at her bodies and at the hem of her skirt. Her eyes were green and her hair was red as a red rose. She then says, "Are you sure what you're doing is smart?"

I answered back, "Smart? Why, whatever did you mean about that?"
"Well you don't seem to be the kind of person to be reaching the right fruit. From all the apples here in this tree. You see, there's only one edible apple in this tree."

I then stood back away from the tree. I was going to go back climbing up again but I couldn't turn around. Every time I tried to go back to the trunk of the tree. I would still be in the same direction, heading towards the apple tree. "What's wrong with this place?"

"Nothing's wrong with this place miss. Something's wrong with you"
I pulled my eyebrows together and tried to hide my impatience, which was not successful. I kept thinking she's just a little girl. She then smiled her big smiles and said,


Times Up! I'll finish the story next time!
