O. Henry's short story The Last Leaf or The Gift of the Magi reads as follows: The Last Leaf O. Henry When the last leaf fell at my feet, I suddenly realized that my life had come to an end. I stood quietly for a while, looking at the falling leaves and thinking about my life. I've loved many people and been loved by many people, but I've never truly experienced the beauty of love. Now love is no longer in my world, only loneliness is left. I began to imagine my future, my family, my friends, my career, and my dreams. I realized that there was nothing in my life that was worth pursuing. I felt so depressed that I didn't know where to go. Just then, a pigeon flew over and landed in front of me. I walked over and stroked the pigeon's wings as it flew into the sky. I suddenly understood that my life is not for material things, but to enjoy the beauty of life. I've decided to start my life anew, to pursue my dreams, to spend quality time with my family and friends. Finally, I picked up the falling leaf and put it in my pocket, then smiled and started a new life. The Gift of the Magi O. Henry Maggie came to your room and said,"Honey, I have a present for you." She took out a box and said,"This is my favorite thing for you." You open the box and find a beautiful necklace shining inside. You were very surprised and said,"This is my gift to you." Maggie said," Actually, I bought this necklace with the money from my first date, but I never had the chance to give it to you. I'm giving it to you now." You feel so grateful for the wonderful day you spent with Maggie, and finally you go home, put the necklace in your box, and leave with a smile.
