Once upon a time in a land far, far away, there lived a boy and a girl. One day the Girl woke up in a beautiful mood! The sun was shining and she was happy. After long, productive but joyful day, the girl decided to surprise the Boy when he got off of work. Her plan was to buy a bottle of wine and whisk the Boy away to a romantic spot overlooking the ocean. The Girl wanted to watch one of land's beautiful sunsets while she and the Boy shared the wine. She thought it would be sweet and create a lovely memory.
On the way to the romantic spot, very suddenly a rainstorm hit. The Girl shrieked in surprise and asked the Boy to pull over and put the top up on their car, which was a convertible. What the Girl didn't know was that earlier, an ogre attacked the Boy and cast an evil spell on him that made the Boy unhappy. The evil spell also made the Boy feel as if everyone and everything were being mean to him. While the Girl was still shrieking and laughing, the Boy only heard anger and yelling. So the Boy yelled back at the Girl. The Girl was shocked and hurt and sad. She had wanted the evening to be a fun, beautiful one. But the evil spell had ruined the happy mood, and no matter what she did, the Girl couldn't bring the fun and laughter back.
So the Boy and Girl went home, silently, and did separate activities until it was time for bed. At bedtime the Girl was grateful, because everyone knows that evil spells disappear at midnight. The Girl couldn't wait for the bright, happy dawn of a new day.
But the Girl did make her mind up about something: Next time, she would take that bottle of wine and head up to the overlook with a couple of girlfriends instead.
The End
