Painful Reminder
Why she’s with broken wings
When the wind blows through her hair, she smells the scent of freshly born roses on her bed. The pillows are worked by the golden threads and filled with soft feathers. She hides a letter in her Pearl frock and peeps through her window to witnesses the glory of the morning sunshine who is getting ready to scatter his service to the universe.
Her soft hands start to rotate the wheels slowly and she begins to move gently around her enormous chamber.
For a minute she looks slightly at her legs and begins to move gradually.
She moves slowly to the huge door glistened in brown and open it slowly employing the key in her hand.
“Miss Eliza, let me help you” .
A lady runs to Eliza and pushes her wheelchair forward. Little Eliza looks around the room and takes a deep breath while she removes her butterfly clip out of the hair.
“Mrs. Wingfield now you may go.”
Eliza declares confidently while she unlace her beautiful pink shoes out of her feet. She looks around the room once again. The little water pond in the middle of the room reflects the sunshine to Eliza’s pale face.
She tries to step in to the water without any help but Mrs. Wingfield holds her skinny body without letting her to be injured.
“ Let’s change this frock and swim, unless it will be heavy to you” Mrs. Wingfield whispers while Eliza refuses it with a single node.
“ Leave me alone, I can handle this “.
She begins to float on the water like a little mermaid and swims to the next corner of the pond.
She pulls the letter out of her gown almost wet from the cold water. The letters of the paper is not clear but the sentence “Invitation for the Royal Ball for Miss Eliza” is still there.
She squeezes the letter and throws it away while whipping her little eyes filled with tears .
“What if this ball was organized in a water pool like this, I could swim and enjoy then”
She closes her eyes and starts to swim back.
