The Magical Love

Once upon a time, there was an orphan black boy named Calix. He lived in Greenwood City, it was a crowded
place that full of judgemental people. He has an ugly appearance so that every person that he encounter
always stay away from him. Despite of longing for his parents and judgement of the people, he remains brave
and resilient.

When he woke up in the morning, he pulled back the white curtain and he looked out the window and
noticed that the winter season had begun, and the snow started to become thick all around, and he went to
the fire place to warm up because it was so cold outside. He also made coffee and grabbed a piece of bread
from the pantry before beginning his breakfast.

Because both of his parents had died Calix was abandoned as an orphan. His relatives (uncles and cousins)
tried to chase him out from his house since he was an orphan. They intended to force him away and capture
his property. As a result, they began to mistreat him. In the long run, the black boy could not take their
treatment. He started to avoid coming home. Then, one day, while walking without knowing where he was
going, he noticed that he was already lost. He became stranded in a forest named Wolford Forest. This forest
is well-known for the mysterious tree with the magical apples , and it is located in the middle of the forest.
He noticed it was getting dark as he wandered the forest and looked for a place to stay. He proceeds on
walking to search for a place to stay and then suddenly he encounter a wolf on his way. The wolf starts to
chase him, and then he runs rapidly. and while running, he found an abandoned house. He quickly entered the
house and closed the doors and windows.

Calix rested because he was short of breath and tired and he suddenly felt hungry, he was looking for
something to eat and then he saw a huge jar full of water, he drank it, but he was still hungry, so he continued
to look for food. And while he was looking for food he found a room but he only saw a dark room, so he
looked for a light to see what inside of it. He continued looking for a light until he found a candle and matches,
and he light it. And then he saw a black box , He took the box, but it was locked, so he looked quickly for the
key to open it. He searched the entire house and all of the places to hide, but he couldn't find any key. until he
noticed an old clock and he took a bench and stepped on it and took the clock and he saw behind it the key.
He used the key to open the black box, and when he open it , he saw a pen and paper, but he had no idea it
was a magic pen.

After several time passed, he noticed that the wolf had gone, so he quickly left the house and continue
walking. he was very hungry so he looked for anything to eat but he couldn't find anything. After a few hours,
he finally saw the apple tree. Then he grabbed an apple and took a bite, Calix suddenly transformed into a
handsome boy without noticing it to himself. He felt bored so he decided to write and draw using the magic
pen and a paper, Calix sketch a pretty lady in his imagination. Then after that he saw a beautiful sunflower
and picked it up, after a few minutes, he saw a pretty lady and remembered what he had drew because it
was looked like. He thought that the pen he saw may be magical, so he sketched the red shoes again. A few
minutes later he saw the red shoes in front of him. And he approached the beautiful lady and spoke to her
and gave the shoes and a sunflower. After a few days, the two became closer and fell in love with each
other, so they decided to live together. Calix did not give up despite experiencing difficulties and other
problems in his life because he believed that, After all, tomorrow is another day.
