118 - Daniela's diary.

Dear diary;

Today I was playing tennis with my friends when out of the sudden a tall skinny guy all dressed in black with a withe hoodie took a sit in the harrows and watched us play, I shared a awkward look with my friends and continue playing even though I kept my eye on the boy, he looked so sad and empty, but as I played with my friends and joked about it, I saw him smile, and he even threw us the ball when it went to stop near him. He sit there and watched us play for almost half of an hour, and I noticed he was keeping the score of the game for himself, and then just as he came, he stood up and left.
I wonder if I'll ever see him again or if the smile that my friends and I stole from him made his day.

xoxo, Dany.

087 - Oh, the moon, the moon.

Walking over the moon he realized how lonely it was, right and left all he could see was dust and rocks, and so he wondered: "Why all the dreamers wish for the moon?"
"You have to be a dreamer to know it" replied the moon, "because you, as simply as you are will never understand that they wish for me because I am closer to the stars, because I am unique, because I am unreachable, because I am beautiful even though I am just a big rock, and they wish for me for a thousand more reason that I ignore"
"If that is so, I'm going to start to dream, because I am already here, with you, I can have you" said the man.
And when the moon heard those words, she expelled him from her orbit, because anyone who wish for her can't have it, because the moon is an unreachable dream.

"Mother, can I have a piece of pie?"
"I'm sorry honey, but I baked the pie as a dessert for after dinner"
"But I do not want pie after dinner, I want pie NOW!" Refuted the little girl raising the tone of her voice.
"If you want pie, you'll have to wait until diner time and eat all your food" Replied the mother undisturbed.
And when the little girl heard what her mother said, she started crying, whining and shouting awful things to her mother such as: "You are a terrible mother..." "I do not love you, I love father better..." "I wish aunt Margaret were  my mom..."
So the mother hurt and offended by her daughter words took off the pie of the windows sill, cut two piece of it and she and her daughter sat down to eat and enjoy the delicious pie before dinner.
