Story Telling

The three walked through the market to go back to the "Vinnesia Bakes". The place was filled with customers so they had to use the back door to get in.

"Darling! Why are you back so late?" Papa Vinnesia asked while filling the fresh batch of donuts with chocolate creme.

"Oh my god you wouldn't even know, I lost Megan half way through and it took time to search for her. Something bad would've happened to her if it weren't for this young man!" said Mama Vinnesia.

"Megan got lost? Oh why thank you young man! Here have a doughnut as a thank you gesture, it has chocolate creme filling. These sold out quick and it's delicious" said papa Vinnesia holding out a doughnut.

"Thank you" Victon said accepting the doughnut. He bit into the doughnut only to be surprised how sweet and delicious it was. Even the doughnuts at home that were made by famous chefs can't even compare!

'So that's why they're the best bakery in the kingdom' Victon thought closing his eyes to enjoy the flavor that were kissing his taste buds.

"Victon can you read books?" Little Meg asked extending her arms for him to see the book.

"Yes, do you want me to read it to you?" Victon asked.

"Yes, please! Mama and papa is busy and Theodore is at his lessons. The shop closes when the sun goes down which takes time, so please read for me" said Megan.

"Alright" Victon then took the old book from the littlefonest girl and looked at the dragon engraved on the cover. He then opened the book to the first page.

"Long ago there was an almighty dragon by the name of Sura" Victon started. "The dragon had been seen flying over the oceans, the mountains and the vast sky. Sura was the most majestic creature of all. But through the beautiful black scales and wings came the hot fiery breath that the dragon shouts. The people thought the dragon as something they can't touch as it was God's finest creation, so they never dared to bother the dragon."

Victon flipped the page, "But a prophecy later came and said 'born from the star light, a girl whose eyes are the color of the storm clouds and hair colored of ashes will seek for the God's finest creation and tame it. When she arrives, the kingdom shall be prosperous with the blessing of God's creation'. Some people went to searched for the girl so they can get her blessings, while some waited to see how this prophecy will turn out." Turning the page Victon said, "In a certain village there lives a girl and her grandmother. The girl had heard about herbs that dwells in a cave which might help her grandmother as her health was deteriorating. The girl went into the Forrest for the herbs and looked for the cave. She went into the cave but got lost, then meet the almighty dragon. The girl and the dragons became friends later on. The dragon did what the girl had asked in boosting her grandmother's health. As if she had tamed the mighty dragon, Sura did whatever she had asked him to do. As the prophecy had said, the kingdom became prosperous as it was blessed by the dragon's magic. The end."

Megan listened to Victon's voice wholeheartedly as she was fascinated by the story.

"Is that true? There's a dragon with magic?" Where is this girl? Who is she?" Little Meg asked with excitement.

Victon gave a small laughed at her adorableness, "Well I don't know because I have never seen a dragon. I also don't know who the girl is, but I have a feeling that she's in this world."

They talked about the dragons and Victon had told her about other tales that he has heard of before. The sun soon fall as the night rise. The shop became less occupied as time passed. Mama and Papa closed the store and cleaned up. Theodore soon came home, he had lessons for today but his teacher had held him back longer than usual to go over his studies.

"What are you doing here?" Asked Theodore looking at Victon with a glare.

"Big brother!" Megan exclaimed as she ran to hug her brother.

"Megan got lost in the market and coincidentally I was there. I helped her, so your mom invited me here for some snacks" Victon explained.

"Well... thank you for helping my sister" Theodore said with his glare nowhere to be found.

"Uhm" Victon replied.

The three hung out some more before Victon said he should go back.

"Well thank you for letting me stay with Megan" Victon said with a small nod.

"Oh you can come here anytime! You're our savior for helping Megan" said mama Vinnesia.

"Come again Victon! I want you to read more stories for me" Megan said as she tugged his sleeve.

"Uhm, I'll come back" Victon said as he ruffled her hair. He waved back at the family again then walked off to his home.
