World Story: Prologue

Story of the World


I open the book and look at the little girl by my side. She has already tuck herself in the bed and wait for me with sparkling eyes.

"Then I will begin." (Me)

This is something I have done every day. I shift my gaze toward the book in my hand.

"The World Story"

This is a book about many tales of great hero and their story. Though more of a history book than a fairy tale, my sister love these story. She would always hold the book and ask me to read it for her. But I am busy with my work and unable to spend time with her.

And so it been decided that I will read the tale from the book to her once everyday before bed time.

I honestly think that this book is not a suitable one for a child. There are sad story, love story, story about king and knight but there also dark story about human's scheme and plan, story about betrayal, story about people's tragedy and such.

Yet at the same time these story will also become part of my sister's childhood. I do not know how she will grow up hearing these story.

But for now, I will do my utmost in telling these story in all their detail.

"Today's story is..." (Me)
