Looking for the Rose
Description
"It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important."
Foreword
"You know — my flower... I am responsible for her. And she is so weak! She is so naïve! She has four thorns, of no use at all, to protect herself against all the world..."
...
And now six years have already gone by... I have never yet told this story. The companions who met me on my return were well content to see me alive. I was sad, but I told them: "I am tired."
Now my sorrow is comforted a little. That is to say — not entirely. But I know that he did go back to his planet, because I did not find his body at daybreak. It was not such a heavy body... and at night I love to listen to the stars. It is like five hundred million little bells...
[Excerpt from The Little Prince]
He turned to the next page but found out that the remaining pages were torn. The young boy, probably around eleven to twelve years of age, who was reading an old ragged copy of The Little Prince huffed in annoyance. He was almost done reading the book that his English literature teacher assigned him. After his classes that day, he rushed and made a short trip to the school’s library to search for the book and read it. Now, how will he finish his book report if he wasn’t able to read the last pages of the book?
Even if it’s only one page missing, he has a lot of questions in his mind. What happened to the little prince? It seemed like the story will end in the narrator’s point of view. He wants to know if the little prince found it’s way back to his rose.
Author's Note:
The story will take place and is based after the popular children's book, The Little Prince. This story is also formed and inspired by Ryeowook's debut album and Kyuhyun's 3rd album.
I hope you enjoy this two-shot story.
