Friends and Lovestruck Fools 2
…
Ciara admired her expensive housewarming gift from Luke. It was a unique antique. A circular music box created for a Persian Prince. A bejewelled masterpiece, intricately designed with pure gems and gold detailing. It sparkled bright with the stars of the night.
Ciara gasped at its dazzling beauty.
By her side, Luke watched her pleasant reaction with satisfaction.
He directed Ciara on how to operate the Dancing Ballerina.
"Twist the little knob on the side.", he said.
Ciara twisted the knob on the bejewelled music box. It opened up slowly to reveal an entire constellation of stars within. The insides lit up with a warm golden light, and then a little ballerina popped out of the box and rotated around its rim, dancing to the soothing tune of a sweet lullaby.
Ciara's fascination hit the roof.
"Oh my!! So beautiful. I love it. Thanks, Luke.", she showed her gratitude.
Luke smiled.
