The fireworks

Chapter 1

It shined bright in the sky,looked so captivating and made a bursting noise.It looked just like a luminous flower,vibrant and stunning.But wait,it just disappeared.Where did it go.Oh!There is another one.Her heart raced with excitement,eyes widened and mouth a bit opened.It felt like it was going to fall on her but it just faded away before reaching her.

She was standing on the fourth floor of the castle peeping out of the window as the celebrations of victorious evening were at peak."Mom!what is it?"she asked her mother as she was intrigued by the beauty if it."Honey!Those Are Fireworks.""Fireworks!!hmmm"."You like them.""I love them.Mom!I wish I could watch them everday.They are beautiful. "She emphasised when she said beautiful.

It was something common between her and the fireworks.Both,beautiful and delicate but could burn if vexed.She looked at the fireworks as they shined in her big yellow eyes with thick black eyelashes working as soldiers to protect them.And her mother looked at her adoring her charismatic child.

"C'mon Enzel!"It's time to change.Daddy will be home in an hour.He'll be glad to see his princess all dressed up,tidy and beautiful. " She jumped off the chair she was standing on to look out."Oh yess!".Her mother laughed.And baby Enzel giggled too."What am I gonna wear today?Am I wearing that new frock?""Yes!sweetie".Her positive energy made her mother smile."The blue one

!",she was surprised."With the silver lace!",she further asked for affirmation.

"Yes!the blue one."Mother made her change.The blue dress just added to her charisma.It perfectly suited her peachy skin and was further complemented by her light brown hair and unforgettable yellow eyes.Her mother braided the brown stream of hair that fell down her head."Mommy!Do I look like a princess?"

Mother was shocked by the question.The air couldn't be swallowed.But that was just a simple question.She looked so innocent as she looked at her mom with the sweetest wish.Little did she know that a princess was not just a title of a beautiful girl.It was name of the sacrifices that went far beyond ease and leisure.But she was just a kid.That was the age one could live the most.The dreams should not be shattered ⁹but weaved,kept,followed and raised.Mother replied"You are a princess sweetie."Her sugar sweet voice got pitchy and both her eyes and smile widened as she asked."Yes!"the mother replied with her teary eyes.

"You are my princes"she paused and then continued "And your daddy's princess."Mother was brought to a new life every time she saw her child happy.After all,it was all she wanted.Enzel looked in the mirror at her perfectly braided hair.Her beautiful sleeves and the bottom of the frock.It was all perfect,just like her.She smiled as she just knew it."I'm hooome!"Finally it was that time of the day she's been waiting for since she woke up.

Dad worked for the government.He worked really hard as he worked in close association to the royalties.He usually left home early morning kissing his precious child's forehead.That she never knew because she was always asleep then,looking like a sleeping beauty.He usually came back by the evening.But some days,he used to get home late due to workload.So,finally he was home.She ran towards the door.Hurried to open it up.He came in.She tried to climb his lap but he already picked his princess up on his shoulder.

She was like a therapy to the young man.She used to take away his weariness in just a few happy moments."Woowww!"She screamed with joy and hugged her dad tight."Thank you so much.I love youuuu!"melody flew in her voice.He brought her favourite chocolates and a toy butterfly she has always wanted.She already had some other toy friends.Life seemed just careless and perfect."But today!this is not the only surprise my princess is getting."She looked at him,all stunned as she heard her father speak.

He continued as he was also eager to see his child's euphoria and feel the warmth of that sweet little angel's embrace and laughter."Guess what!!"."Ummmm"

It sounded like a melody too."Are we going out for dinner today?",she asked."That was a smart guess."Daddy said, tickling her.She laughed hard and then mommy took her so that her father could get raedy.As it was a special night,they were going out to celebrate.She was very different from other kids of her age.She was sober,caring,grateful,obedient and very intellectual as well.

She never asked for expensive gifts,she has never been stubborn.She loved her parents the most and was adored by them too.She was everything parents would want their child to be.It owed to her extraordinary parents as well.They were tenderhearted,winsome,sympathetic and sagacious.They helped people around them with open hearts and took care of their loved ones and loved unconditionally.So,for anyone,it was of no surprise that their daughter was a litter angel.

Elyana was a young generous lady and Elias was a wise young man.They had many more qualities and were raising Enzel right.They both were hardworking and honest.But they had some extra responsibility on their shoulders.They had some fears too.They had to be very careful.When life turns merciless it takes everything and leaves a human broken

Some thoughts just flashed Elyanas mind.Till then,Elias returned from the dressing room.They all looked fine.A happy little family.Adorable!isn't it.

The sun went down and the moon came up.It was a beautiful starry night.They set for the hotel.It was such a beautiful starry night.She looked out of the car's window and wondered what stars were made of.They shined bright and looked too small."Daddy!Can I touch the stars?"They both laughed."Sweetie if you want to"he gently replied.Positivity was inculcated into her.That's the way of survival when the world reveals its cruel self.One should never lose hope.Thats how you make it to the end.

Little Enzel noticed many little kids walking by their parents. There were stalls everywhere that day and lots of people had gathered by the vendors.Their country had won the games with a glorious victory.The funfair was just a kind of power show between several states.Whole nation was celebrating victory.Finally,they had reached the restaurant.She looked at people.There were many rich people dressed up in expensive dresses,delicately embroidered and uniquely styled.

That restaurant wasn't a place she visited very often.It was embellished with many crafts and metallic art pieces.Heavy chandeliers hanging down the roof.The carpets were laid.Well!It was a very fancy restaurant.They had their delicious meal.And just like that the days passed by.Everyday added something to their lives.Some challenges,some experiences and some people.

Time just flew too fast,like a cloth of silk slips through someone's hand,seeming like a leaf that flows through the wind.Two years had passed."Elias!Remember its Enzel's birthday in two weeks.""Oh yes!How can I forget.She's my only charm.""She's growing up really fast.Its getting harder to keep the truth everyday",said Elyana."It's like she was made for it.Her destiny is tracking her down,getting closer everyday."Enzel entered the room."Look mommy!look daddy!"She was showing a chart to her parents with beautiful drawing on it.

They looked at the drawing of a girl standing between the mountains watching the dusk.The tension in the room rose.Why did it feel like it was getting too hot to stand in the room.It felt suffocating.The little girl's hands were too fine for arts.The picture depicted its concept well."Dad!Is it good?",she inquired."This is mindblowing sweetheart!".As it really was."Thanks daddy!"."Guess who's visiting us today?"Elyana broke in."Who?" Elyas looked at her concerned."Aunt Jasmine…"."Does that mean Mariah is coming too?"Enzel's excitement was clear."Yaayyy!"

Mariah was a girl of Enzel's age.She had a younger brother too.Aunt Jasmine and her family were one of the very few relatives Enzel ever knew.Many people knew Enzel's family as a well reputed one.They had many allies and admirers.But not many relatives.Infact she never really knew much about her grandparents.As they just passed away and like the chapter was closed.Her parents would tell her that they were really kind and charitable.Her maternal grandfather was tall and grandmother had very thick,beautiful hair just like hers.And that her paternal grandparents weren't too different as well.They were wise and kind too.As her paternal and maternal grandparents were related.
