Happy Endings

I woke up from a dream.I thought I was in Neverland, a place where people never grew up. I wanted to stay on that place and how I wish the dream never ended.

I took a deep breath and give myself another try. It didn't took long before I fell asleep again, it was just a matter of seconds.

And I saw myself caught in a beautiful place. "Is this utopia?" I asked myself again.It never crossed my mind that a place like this still exist but I was wrong.

Beneath the center of the place was a big castle,surrounded with trees of different shades. It was a place full of smiles,and every people I met seems happy.

It was like Neverland,but its quite different.I saw people of different ages.

I came to ask one of the bystanders outside the castle,curiosity sprouted out and I started to speak.

"Good day mister, What do you call this place? Who lives in that big castle?"

I was full of what if's and questions. I wanted to ask more and suddenly the guy spoked.

"It seems that you are new in this place, this place is called Eternia."

And he added: "In that big castle lives a beautiful princess named Chel." She is the only daughter of the King and Queen, and she is next to the throne."

"Oh well, I see. Thanks for answering my questions sir. It did help me a lot." I replied.

"Could I enter that place?" I added.

"Certainly you can but remember to stay away from the princess".

The conversation ended and I saw myself in the midst of uncertainty. I wanted to go and see what's inside and honestly I really wanted to see the princess the guy was telling.What does she look like, Is she kind enough to talk to people outside her abode? All this things came out of my mind and I can't help myself but feed my curiosity.

I decided to enter and see for myself the princess.

The place was full of people. People of different races, they wore old fashioned clothes, the ones I only saw in movies. I came to ask one of the royal guards where the princess is and he responded:

"Why do you want to see the princess?" "The princess could only speak to noble people"

And he added: "You are wearing a weird clothing sir, are you a prince from another place?"

Then I realized that I was wearing my pajamas, I'm lucky indeed I said to myself.The royal guard had mistaken my pajamas as a noble clothing maybe because pajamas are not common on that place. I never intended to tell a lie, I'm not really a prince or a noble man, I'm just a simple guy caught in a land different from mine.

And I added:

"Hmm. I'm Sir Anton the son of King Thelios the II, I came here to visit the princess."

"I'm very sorry my majesty, the princess' room is at the center of the palace. The door with a golden knob is her room, you can easily recognize her room."

I made my way to the room. I saw the room and with all courage, I gave a knock

A dulcet voice answered: "You may come in"

The voice echoed to the corridor, it was soft but clear. It sounded like an angel but I haven't seen an angel until I opened the room.

And there I saw, one of the prettiest face I've ever seen. I'm not exaggerating on this part. I really did saw an angel caught in a lady's body. She is wearing a lovely gown made of silk. Her hair is short and black.Her eyes are like crystals,shining brightly and one more thing, I can never forget her smiles. She had the sweetest smile that can melt an iceberg.

The princess stared at me and noticed that I was lost in thought. Truly I was held captive of her beauty.

"Sir,still there? she asked with a smile.

"Yes my lady." I responded.

We started conversing about trivial matters. The room was full of chit chats and smiles. And I found myself resting on her arms.I't didn't seem right,it ought to have been the other way around but it wasn't. I realized that I was happy, this is what I wanted. We continued to talk with each other for a long time.

And little by little, I learned a lot about her. Her name was Lady Richelle.She loves watching the stars and she speaks little about herself. She is kind hearted and a loving daughter. She was unique.

The conversation was interrupted by a knock from the door. A man came inside and gave the sweet lady a big hug.

I was really jealous, she had my whole world in his arms.

It was her husband, I never thought that she is already married. It seems that I lose by default.I started to feel a pain that burns a hole inside. How I wish It was just a dream.

Then I woke again in the middle of the cold night with tears in my pillows.

It was just a dream.
