Chapter 3 - Chapter 2

Maria POV

" Of course I can! I grew up immediately! There's a lot of things I can do now." I am happy that finally, I am at home. Arthur is taller than me aist! Life is really unfair.

" Arthur, what did you do to grow taller?", I asked. I want to be as tall as him.

" I always drink milk and I sleep in the afternoon. Mommy told me that if I want to be taller as papa I should do that." OMO! Mommy is right I should do that next time.

" Arthur I want to share you something, it should be kept by the both of us. No one should know this." I came closer to him and whispered. " I want to be as tall as giraffe. You have to be with me every afternoon so that we can sleep and drink milk so we can be as taller as giraffe. Copy that Artur?" I look at him and he's reaction is

" What? you gotta be kidding me! Are you crazy? You can't be taller as giraffe. That's too tall!"

" Stop it! Stop laughing!" I think I gonna to cry right now. He just destroy my dream! That's the only dream I have for now!

"I'm sorry I can't stop laughing" he's just laughing while I'm hurt here. He's so evil!

" You're evil! You destroyed my dream!" I cried loud. I can't look at him properly because of my blurry eyes.

" Maria, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Hussh stop crying. God what to do Arthur? Maria I am really sorry. You can be what you wanted to be. Just stop crying or else I'll cry too." and with that I stopped crying. I feel like when he's crying I should be his strength I can't be weak. I look at him and said.

"Go home." I don't want him infront of me when I'm like this. This man is weak. I can't bear seeing him like that because I am weak too.

"But Maria. I said I am sorry. I didn't mean to laugh at you. You just came back and you wanted me out of your face? What did I do?" my heart melts. It's not that I just want to rest right now.

"We'll talk tomorrow" I smiled at him and go upstairs. I look at my window and saw him. He's sad ang like a walking dead. I opened my window.

"Arthur! Don't be sad. We will tommorow! I just have to rest now. And also you're forgiven!" I smiled and wave my hand.

I have to sleep now to be taller as giraffe. I want milk wait I have to go downstairs. It's hard having my room on second floor.
