During the dream, I felt like at times I was watching from the side, while others, I was in Xiao Xue herself. 小雪 a.k.a Little Snow in English ( I am going to call her Snow for easier referance ) was a very clumsy girl. Judging from her and her friends age, I'd say about teens, 14-18 though might be younger cos at times she looks more like 8. Very petite in size and very slim, yet tomboyish at times.
( Shortly interrupted due to a small outburst from two angry colleagues )
I think I should start on it soon.
Snow was, as usual, happily chatting with her bunch of friends when someone came and lifted her up from behind.
"Reynold!" She half squealed in delight and hugged her boyfriend.
"What's my favourite girl doing?" asked Reynold as he gave a nod to all those that said hi to him.
"Nothing, just enjoying a conversation when you suddenly interrupted~" Snow leaned over and gave him a peck on his cheek.
She glanced at Reynold still wondering if these was just a dream. Just a few weeks ago, they were only friends, with her still having a slight crush on him.
Never would she hoped to be his girlfriend, for he was almost like the perfect guy, fantastic results both academic and sports wise. He was almost dream-like with his boyish good looks, grace and manners of an gentleman and of cos, having almost all the ladies in the school going wild over him, just lack the worship of an idol. More than 90% of the ladies in school had polled him to be the most handsome and desirable guy of the year.
As compared to him, she was anything but graceful, would be grateful if she don't tripped anywhere she goes though she smiled to the fact that she was no dummy in academic wise, just a little handicapped at sports. Pretty much of a tomboy nature, she loves nothing more to run and climb and really get dirts in her hands.
Which makes her couldn't fathom why he would actually fall for her and asked her to be his girlfriend when he did.
"Thinking about something?" Reynold pushing a loose strand of locks behind Snow's ear.
"Hmm... Yeah... Wondering what's good about me that made you fell head over heels for me. Are you blind?" Snow teased, looking up only to see him laughing good naturally.
"Yeah, blinded by your wonderful qualities you little imp" He finally let her down and hugged her tight. "But more so to not wanting others having you. Though you may not admit or even acknowledge, but you are pretty and attractive yourself."
"With what? Tripping over my 2 left feet all the time? Having the grace of a herd of elephants?"
"That's for me to know and you to find out" Reynold laughed and started to send her home.
*~*~*~*
Back at her home, Snow was laying on her bed and looking around her room when a folder on her white table caught her eyes.
It was yellowed with age and looking weird in the otherwise pretty mordern room.
Snow flipped opened and smile when she saw some notes in her handwritting scribbled inside. "Ah... The memories it brings..." She sighed happily.
Back then she was just another little camper in this particular camp just for kids like her, whose aspiration was to become a doctor.
All through that particular day, they had been assigned to look out for herbs in the forest, in case of emergencies, they might be able to recognise the needed herbs.
She had spent the whole day running all over the place, tripping over roots and acquired a few scatches and wounds but nonetheless, nothing dampened her passion and delightful mood when she finally found all that she need.
Just as she was turning in for the night, a loud clanging sound could be heard and she smelt smoke in the air!
"Oh no fire!" Snow picked her folder and ran out of her tent, rushing to the nearby river that they had been instructed the day before that should anything happen, they must immediately gathered at the river.
"Snow! Thank goodness you are alright!" Karina, her close friend hugged her tightly.
Karina's gorgerous long dark locks were in a huge tangled mess, making her looked more like a mad girl on the run.
"Yea I am ok, what happened?" Shouting among the noise of anxious chatters, Snow strained to hear what was being annouced.
"... slight fire, false alarm. Please go back to your tents and rest for tonight. " Came the counselor's tired voice.
"You brought this when there's fire??!!" Karina ridiculed, ignoring Snow's question and looking at the file that was held tightly in Snow's folded arms.
"Erm yeah... Let's head back and rest..." Embarrassed by Karina's words, Snow headed quickly back to her tent, determined not to let her friend see her blushing red face...
Flipping through the pages and and reminising the memorise, Snow almost didn't hear her phone ringing.
"Opps, hello!" Snow answered.
"Gal! What have you been doing??!! I had tried to call you so many times!!" Came the excited reply.
"Karina??!!"
"Yeah! How have you been??"
"Haha, I am fine! Was just thinking about you!"
"Nothing bad I hope!" Snow can almost see Karina sticking out her tongue.
"What's up?" Snow put her folder back to its original place.
"Actually I have a favor to ask of you..." Karina started...
