Waiting for Love
“Mom, mom, all of you have abandoned me, where should I go?”Jasmine cried. She had no place to go. She thought of her life with her parents.
A long time ago, in a small village, a girl often sitting in the street, dazing and looking at the moving pedestrians innocently, said silently to her self: “ If there is an angel, I wish he can make me as normal as others." As everyone in the palm-sized village believed that people with purple hair were doomed to be cursed and would bring them tragedies. Therefore, villages all looked down upon her as well as her parents. However, she did have a happy time when she were very young, for her mother loved her so much at that time. Much to her despair, one day a high-profile prophet in the village told the villagers that if the girl did not leave the village, all the villagers would be involved in a big catastrophe. Being afraid of the coming disaster, her parents had no way but to abandon the girl.
That girl was her, Jasmine. When she thought about her hometown, her heart was bleeding.
Nevertheless, she had to live on herself since there could be nobody for her to turn to for help. Hungry and tired, she finally found a way to make her living. She discovered a forest where small white flowers are all over the forest. By virtue of the fragrance of the flowers, people can sense the fragrant smell even ten miles away. Then she started her job as a flower girl. Things did not go as she had thought. People in this far village were attracted by her flowers but they still never looked at her face to face whenever they met her because of her purple hair. Jasmine was so kind a girl that she just ignored it because she found that she could help others in the village. She always helped the blind woman wash clothes and sent the beautiful flowers to sick people and poor people who could not afford it but wanted for it. Bad luck came to her again this
time. The granddaughter of the prophet insulted her and robbed her of all the flowers. Then the prophet said she was a monster with purple hair. She was so sad and felt she was deserted again.
She ran and ran, tears dropping down continuously. What she felt sad was that there was not anyone who really liked her without feeling horrible about her purple hair. But, she believed that one day there would be somewhere suitable for her and people would make friends with her.
Ignorant of where she was, she stopped, founding a forest with all kinds of flowers blossoming profusely. She was surprised at the wonderful sight that she almost forgot to take a breath. “What did she see? What happened? Is this true? Is she in the heaven?” She said to herself. Colored spirits were flying all over her, birds were singing happily on the trees, everything there was just like a fairy land. Suddenly, a group of squirrels seemed to come to her. Surrounded by these cute animals, she felt really relaxed and delighted from the inner heart.
“……,”the squirrels seemed to tell her about something. Jasmine then stooped and came near to these squirrels, trying to catch what they were saying. After a few words, Jasmine knew that these squirrels wanted her to came to a nearby house. Without hesitation, she set out under the guidance of the squirrels at once. What a handsome boy he was! Unfortunately, she found that the boy was totally blind.
The boy asked, “Who is that? Have you brought some flowers? ”
“Yes, I am Jasmine. I am brought here by these cute squirrels. Here you are,”Jasmine said nervously. There were never once a person who spoke to her so gently.
“Thanks for your so beautiful flowers, I am Jim.”
Jasmine was so glad that Jim liked her flowers that she sent a bunch of flowers to him every day in the morning. And the boy stood in the same place waiting for her every day. Day after day, she still stayed in the
