Part 1:
The worried
mother waited. Where was her daughter? She couldn’t lose her newborn daughter.
Not her first child. She heard a doctor
murmuring to her husband. The mother
bowed her head down. Was the child still alive?
Her hospital door opened, and a pretty nurse came in with a small pink
bundle in her arms. The mother gasped
joyously, and picked up the baby.
Something was wrong.
The baby was
breathing, but her eyes were shut and there was no motion besides the rise and
fall of her chest.
“Sweetie?” the mother asked.
Just quiet
breathing. The mother made a small sob.
“Is she in a coma of some sort?”
“Perhaps. She was unconscious when she was pulled out. I’m
not sure. It’s only been 8 hours. Maybe
she’s asleep.”
The mother
looked at the child. The child
shuddered. And she opened her eyes.
“Oh…”
The child’s eyes
were the most beautiful Jade green you had ever seen. The baby let out a soft giggle. That was all.
“Her name is Jade.”
No human saw the small sprite of light
that came out of Jade’s mouth. Nor did anyone see the sprite float about, to a
place called Neverland. However, no one saw the sprite hit a tree and
fall. The laugh was barely saved by a
small gust of wind. The laugh got caught
into a white daisy. The daisy fluttered toward Neverland.
Nice story, Jade. :)
