A Dream

Far from our peaceful and beautiful land, there was a small country suffering from civil war for a long time. In that country, a little boy and his old grandmother live together in a refugee camp. The little boy was only 5 years old, but he has been living in the refugee camp with his grandmother for 2 years. They don't know when they are gonna die and they just consist to being alive.
Even during the civil war, grandmother always used to tell the little boy about everything pretty and nice in the world, she told the little boy that out of the refugee camp, there are lots of beautiful things in the world, the rain forests, lovely animals and people who are kind and without guns. The little boy remembered all of stories from his grandmother and always hoping that one day, he can go to the beautiful forest and play with the animals.
One day, while the little boy was sleeping, a weird noise woke him up, the voice come from a small hole on the ground and is sounds like someone was trying to tell him something. The little boy came closer to the hole and suddenly, a small fairy appeared. The little boy was so shocked and even forgot to shout, he looked at the little sparkling things and hoping that is not a dream. Fortunately, it was true, the fairy said she came from the peaceful rain forests and she is come to save the little boy and his grandmother to leave the refugee camp. The fairy said that she can help them out the camp and reach the forests but they need walk into the forests by themselves. The little boy and his grandmother said it was okay, they can try.
The fairy take them to the forest and told them when they find the fire and house, they can arrived the country of fairy and they can live there happily for a whole life. They tried so hard to go deep and deep but they still can't find it. The grandmother was so old and one day, during the sleeping, she died. The little boy did not know what happened to her, he just want to arrive the country of fairy with his grandmother, so he took his grandmother's body together and just walk. Fortunately, just half a day, he find the fairy's country and could finally have the peace life. Fairies help him burned his grandmother and buried her in the tomb.
Few years ago, the boy grows up and he has become one of the fairy in the fairy country, he has a happy life now, they ride elephants together, play in the forest together, this is the best life as the boy think.
