Once upon a time there lived a hazel eyed girl who loved to pretend. As time passed by she grew up… pretending to be brave, brilliant, strong and smart. She grew up without letting any one know that she also had been a child once. She knew nothing about herself because no one else could tell her about her. Inevitably: because she pretended all the time. With time she grew lonelier, quite inevitably.
One drizzling summer afternoon the hazel eyed girl woke up to see the seven colored wonder of a rainbow in the bright blue sky. She never had seen a rainbow before. Beautiful: she thought. This is a bridge that connects earth to heaven. She immediately fell in love with the rainbow. But alas, the moment she stretched her arms to embrace the mighty colorful bow, it vanished. She felt like crying, but pretended to be brave and decided to go out looking for the vanished rainbow.
Since that day she has been looking for the rainbow, day and night, without stopping for a moment, pretending not to know that her bow is in love with rain…and that they were made for each other, and made in heaven.
The hazel eyed girl is still wandering…not knowing what she is doing and alas, no one can ever tell her that she is only pretending, because she has been always so perfectly pretending…
