I wake up, and I hear the birds chirping, the cows mooing, and the wind blowing in the country side. Just like every other day, every morning just the same, since the morning that we came. I wake up early, as not to disturb my father, to head into town. I first go to the book shop, and return the book I borrowed. I walk in, and greet Monsieur Livre.
"Good morning sir!"
"Ah Belle!" He exclaims
"I've come to return the book I borrowed, have you got anything new?" I ask excitedly.
"No, not since yesterday."
"Oh that's alright." I pause."I'll borrow.." I look around the shop to find my favorite story. "AH! This one!"
"But you've read it twice!" He laughs.
"Well it's my favorite, far off places, daring sword fights, magic spells, a prince in disguise..." I find myself getting a little carried away.
"Well if you like it that much, it's your."
"But sir-" I say.
"No I insist!" He hands me the book.
"Thank you, thank you very much!" I say. I wave to Monsieur Livre and I walk out and head on my way. As I read, someone takes my book, but it's not a surprise who. The town's favorite hunter, and the most selfish Gaston.
"Gaston, may I have my book please?" I ask nicely.
"How can you read this? There's no pictures!"
I laugh. "Some people use their imagination."
"Well, I think it's time you pay attention to more important things..like me."
I roll my eyes and continue walking, but again Gaston appears in front of me.
"What do you say we head to the tavern and take a look at my trophies?" He puts his muscular arm around me, and I immediately move away.
"Please Gaston I can't! I have to go and help my father. Goodbye." I head to my cottage where my father is fixing up his latest invention. As I enter the cottage I hear a loud sound. I rush down to my father's workshop, I hear him yelling and at his invention.
"You know your inventions can't talk right?"
"Oh!" He yells dismissing my joke. "I'll never get this contraption to work!"
"You will, and you'll win first prize at the fair tommorow, and become a world famous inventor."
"Oh I don't-you really think so?"
"I always have." I reassure him.
He smiles at me and continues fixing up his invention. After hours and hours of alterations, his invention finally works to it's full potential.
"It works!" I shout.
"It does!!" He runs over to me and hugs me tightly.
"You did it! You really did it!"
He skips with joy, I've never seen him so happy. He quickly grabs his coat and scarf that I gave him the day before and gets ready to head to the fair. He kisses my cheek, and goes on his way.
"Goodbye Papa! Good luck!"
"Goodbye Belle, and take care while I'm gone!"
He goes off into the horizon and I head back into the cottage to read my favorite story.
