"I little bit sir..."

"Let me tell you about our founding father Ethan."

Once upon a time, in a small town nestled in rolling hills, there lived a young boy named Ethan. Ethan was a bright, imaginative child who loved spending his days exploring the outdoors, playing with his friends, and dreaming of endless adventures. However, his energy and enthusiasm were dimmed by a devastating diagnosis - he had been diagnosed with incurrable disease called cancer.

Ethan's illness became a constant presence in his life, as he endured numerous hospital visits, painful treatments, and long stretches of time spent confined to his bedroom. But amid the gloom, Ethan remained determined to find joy and hope in every moment.

One day, as Ethan lay in bed, gazing out of his window, a shimmering light caught his eye. It was a beautiful butterfly, dancing in the sunlit garden. Inspired by its freedom, Ethan's mind began to wander. He yearned for a world where sickness and pain didn't exist, where he could roam freely without constraints And fear.

In his imagination, Ethan created a vivid underground city, a secret haven where kids like him could escape their troubles. This magical place was filled with laughter, joy, and endless adventures. Ethan envisioned towering treehouses, hidden tunnels, and paths lined with wildflowers. It was a sanctuary where dreams flourished, illness and fear became a distant memory.

As Ethan's imagination grew, so did his determination to make this fantasy a reality. He shared his vision with his parents, who, despite their worries, recognized the power of hope in their son's eyes. Together, they rallied the support of their community, and soon, the town was buzzing with excitement and enthusiasm to bring Ethan's underground city to life.

Volunteers transformed an old abandoned mine into a whimsical world of wonder. They painted vibrant murals on the cave walls, strung fairy lights, and built rope bridges connecting the chambers. Plants and flowers were brought underground, filling the air with their sweet fragrance.

Word of the underground city spread far and wide, and kids from neighboring towns flocked to experience its magic. In this hidden sanctuary, Ethan found himself surrounded by newfound friends, each one carrying their own battles but united by the sheer power of joy and imagination.

Together, they embarked on incredible escapades, exploring the underground tunnels and climbing to the highest point of their mystical abode. They built forts, told stories, and played games, all the while forgetting their fear. In this subterranean refuge, time seemed to stand still, and worries were replaced by laughter and companionship.

As Ethan's health fluctuated, his underground city became a haven not just for him but for all the people facing the sadness. It provided solace and respite, a place where their spirits were lifted, and their courage renewed.

Months turned into years, and Ethan's illness continued to take its toll. Yet, he never lost hope or his passion for the underground city. Even during his weakest moments, he found solace in knowing that he had created something extraordinary, something that would live on as a testament to the power of imagination and community.

One fateful day, as the sun kissed Ethan's cheek, a butterfly gently landed on his shoulders. It seemed to carry a message from the underground city, a reminder of the joy and camaraderie he had found in its depths. With a peaceful smile, Ethan knew that his journey was complete.

Ethan's spirit lives on in the hearts of those who were touched by his underground city. His legacy serves as a reminder to embrace the power of imagination, to cherish the strength that lies within, and to create moments of happiness in the face of adversity. And as the butterfly took flight, it carried with it the infectious spirit of Ethan's underground city, leaving a lasting imprint on the world.

"Thus how our country Hevery are founded. From a kid who dream big. "

"My god... thats a very beautiful story sir.. " she said with a teary eyes.

"Yes... it filled with dream, and to overcome one weakness with other help. Never to lose your way, and believe that there still someone who thinking about you and loves you with their hearts"

"here we go. we arrived at our destination miss.."

"Thank you sir.. youre the nicest taxi driver that i ever met. "

"Your welcome... whats your Name miss?"

"I'm Sheilla... Sheilla Mikoto"

"Nice knowing you miss.. Hope we met again soon. "

*KABOOOMM!!

Suddenly, theres an explosion that could be heard from the distance. It turns out, the explosion was huge enough that could be seen from the orphanage thats was very far away from the town.

"Shit!!! This is no good! "

"Sir what happened sir!? "

"I don't know.. but this is very bad.. miss you should stay at your home right now.. don't ever come to the town alright? "

"No!! my sister and my little brother was in the town...!"

"What should i do?? Oh my god.. okay.. okay... lets do this... "

"If i told you to run.. you must run with all your might, okay? "

" I promise"

"Good.. now come in, we have to come back. "
