The Fairy With A Broken Wing

'''Once upon a time, there was a young and beautiful Fairy who had broken her wing. She lay on the forest floor, crying for help. Eventually, an elderly man came along. “Dear stranger, do help me. For I have broken my wing, and am in need of assistance.” Said the teary eyed Fairy pleadingly. “Oh, woe is you, young dear. But I have pressing business to attend to.” Said the old man as he kept walking. “Oh… Dear. How could anyone be so unkind? Oh, I mustn’t think such things… Maybe he really couldn’t help me.” The Fairy thought. “I shall call for help again” Said she; This time aloud. “Please, help!” She cried for the second time. “Who is there?” Called a juvenile voice. “It is I, a Fairy. I have broken my wing, please do help me!” The child approached. It was a young boy; Still in his school uniform. “Well, what can you give me, Fairy?” Said the boy. “Child, I do not understand.” The Fairy said, her hope decreasing. Would anyone ever help her? “What can you give me in return for helping you?” The boy answered. “I… haven’t much to spare, I’m afraid.” Said the Fairy in a despairing voice. “Well, I must run along, then.” Answered the greedy boy. The Fairy sat there in despair, not bothering to call for help again. She had just decided to take a nap when a feminine voice called out, “Hello, stranger! Are you alright?”. Finally, a friendly sounding voice, thought the Fairy. “No, my dear stranger. My wing is broken, and I am in immense need of assistance.”. “Dear, oh dear!” Said the woman, running. “Here, I may have some items that will heal you greatly.” Claimed the friendly woman, slowing down and reaching in her pouch for a small coral colored bottle. “Dear stranger! Is that a healing potion? No, you mustn’t give that to me! I do not want to take that from you.” Said the very flattered Fairy. She had not experienced such acts of kindness all day. “Oh, but young Fairy, it would bring me pleasure to give it to you. For your wing is broken, and I do not wish to see a Fairy in such pain. Please, take it.” Answered the friendly woman. “I… Alright. Thank you. I shall someday repay your kind soul for this.” Said the very grateful Fairy as she was handed the bottle, and removed the cork of the bottle. And she was healed immediately. '''

Kindness is far underrated.
