sleeping Beauty

The weather is still very good today. It rained all night last night. The air is filled with the smell of leaves and grass washed by the rain. The forest has also been watered by the rain, and it has become much more energetic and looks mild. Friendly too.Brenda walked in front, carrying a wooden box containing rabbits and a hatchet in her hand, Gloria walked behind carrying a skirt, Brenda was slender, with long strides, although Gloria was not wearing Panniers, but the high-heeled pompadours made it difficult for her to walk.Brenda stopped suddenly, and handed a pair of boots to Gloria out of nowhere. They were a pair of old leather boots with no heels, and a pair of cotton socks were stuffed inside. Gloria happily took them , and then stuffed it back and said: "You are my maid, you help me wear it." Brenda ignored her, turned around and walked quickly into the forest.Gloria was a little annoyed, so she had to quickly put on her shoes and socks, and ran to catch up.The flat shoes are really comfortable, but these shoes are a bit big, so Gloria can't run fast, but she managed to run in front of Brenda, "Why don't you wait for me, I haven't seen such a proud servant like you, but For the sake of helping me prepare the shoes, I forgive you. Do you often go to the forest alone? Are you not afraid? Are there bears and tigers in the forest? Huh? There is a flower there, you know that What kind of flower is it? I know, it’s heather. My mother said it’s my birthday flower.” Along the way, Gloria ran and jumped, chatting non-stop, forgetting the sorrows of the past, and seemed to have found her own happiness again. , Brenda doesn't talk very much, sometimes she is told to watch the road carefully, and sometimes she tells her something about the forest.When we entered the forest, the sun became thinner and thinner as we walked deeper and thinner, but from time to time there were mottled shadows scattered on the rotten leaves and stakes on the ground. After walking for a while, there is a clearing in the forest, the sun shines down wantonly, the fallen leaves are dry and loose, and there are a few snow-cut grasses or delicate white daisies with green hearts in the middle.Gloria fell in love with it right away, and happily ran to the center to bask in the sun.Brenda said to her: "You and the rabbit are here to play, don't run around, I will come back after I cut the firewood." Gloria let the rabbit out of the wooden box. It was a hare, and it disappeared after a while trace.After spending some time alone in the sun, Gloria wanted to find Brenda.She walked in the direction Brenda left for a while, but she didn't see Brenda, but saw a clear stream, very shallow, sparkling in the sun, pebbles and fallen leaves were clearly visible under the water, and There are scattered small fish, the river has just opened up, and there are not many fish. Gloria squatted by the river, stretched her fingers into the water, swiped it against the current, and stirred up a series of splashes. Gloria seemed to have opened a new window. The gate of the world, she never knew that nature is so beautiful, this charm made her find the meaning of life, she began to rejoice that she lived next to the forest and could enjoy the beautiful scenery anytime and anywhere. "Don't play in the water, the water in spring is very cold." Brenda came out of the forest, carrying a bundle of wood on her back, her long black hair was tied behind her head, her dark skin showed health and vitality, and her deep black hair Looking at herself, Gloria suddenly had a feeling that Brenda belonged here, she belonged in this forest.Brenda conjured a daffodil flower from the bundle of wood and handed it to Gloria, saying, "The rabbit is released?" Gloria took the daffodil flower and put it on the tip of a pen to smell it. It smelled so good. "That rabbit ran away early." "It's coming home, and we're going home too. It's going to be dangerous in the forest after dark." Gloria looked at Brenda's slender height of about five feet ten inches , a full four inches taller than her, she couldn't help being a little envious, and suddenly wanted to know her, and asked tentatively: "Your parents..." Brenda froze and stopped, and then speeded up Walking forward, as if she didn't hear anything, Gloria hurriedly changed the subject, talking about her sore body after riding a horse last time, while carefully observing Brenda's side face, she was relieved to see that she didn't respond.

Since then, every time Brenda went to the forest, Gloria would go with her. Sometimes Brenda went to the town to buy flour and groceries, and Brenda would follow in plain and light clothes. She, this period of time can be said to be the happiest day for Gloria, and her body has become much healthier. She no longer coughs, walks and plays during the day very happily, and sleeps much more peacefully at night.Brenda used to be alone and didn't feel much. With Gloria by her side, she felt the joy of being accompanied by someone. Once Gloria didn't know what she said to make Brenda laugh Yes, Brenda smiled unexpectedly cute, showing white and neat teeth, with the lazy elegance of a feline, and the wild cheerfulness.From time to time, Brenda would surprise Gloria with a beautiful feather, point out a squirrel eating a pine nut, or give her a colorful fish.Gloria thought it was good to live like this forever, really good.
