The Magic Garden Adventures of the Little Rabbit Girl Called K

Chapter ONE – day one - Jasmine After having the delicious breakfast her mum prepared for her made from watercress and hay (that’s what rabbits desire for an early meal) the little rabbit girl called K went back to her room, tidied up (she knows very well that her mummy doesn’t like any mess ) packed few things needed for her new adventure and went back to the kitchen calling : “Mummy, I am going for a little stroll. I will be back for a dinner”. Mummy said : “Ok Sweetheart, stay safe and don’t do anything silly !”. Her mummy knew she can trust her with everything. The little K slammed the door in a hurry, as she couldn’t hold her excitement and thought of a new adventure anymore, and took a deep breath to step forward. With one deep long breath she made one big step forward as if expecting some kind of unexpected adventure will occur right away. But little she got disappointed that nothing major happened and that few steps further still nothing major happened, she has greeted all neighbours she met on her path, acknowledged all the vegetables and fruits on her way towards the new adventure, but still no sign of the magic garden she dreamed of. Curious, what if she would make few more steps out there and see for herself if the world of vegetables and plants is still the same. Once she reached the corner of her yard where everybody lived in a harmony, she took a leap of faith and stepped further. “Wow “ she thinks to herself. Her heart started beating fast from an excitement. What an overwhelming new feeling she had discovered within. She stepped carefully into the new world, one step at the time and slowly so all her senses could adjust to the new environment and absorb its beauty. The view was stunning, so many colours, shades, sizes and fragrances, that it was overwhelming. First thing she noticed, was the smell, she never smelled such a strong and sweet fragrance before. What was it, she wondered. She touched it and smelled it and wanted to know more about this new plant she had discovered, but who should she ask? Then suddenly, very shrieking noise came out from behind this shrub. Who is making such a funny noise ? Who is this new creature she sees? It is standing on two paws instead of using all fours, that is very strange indeed. It is using the other two paws to grab some kind of instrument, very peculiar. She hides behind the bush and observes from the safety, but then suddenly the shriek comes from behind her and grabs her, before she realises she is floating in the air and this peculiar looking creature is studying her from the top to toe, giggling. Sense of shock disappears and a new sense of fascination takes over. Now they are both studying each other cautiously. The rabbit girl starts slowly leaning towards this funny looking creature and speaks out loud for herself. “Who are you?” she thinks out loud. And what you know, this being answers back. “My name is Emily, who are you?” Both gaze in each other eyes in enchantment. “I haven’t met being like you before, where you come from and why I haven’t seen you around?” Emily asks K. To K’s surprise she understands every word this being is producing even though the language and the sound is completely new to her. She smiles back at her and politely answers back. “I come from back of the hill, there, look.” And shows the girl the direction. “Hm, I see, she says, I have never left my home, so wouldn’t know what is behind the hill. Would you like to become my friend and tell me more about where you come from and about your place?” K shouted out loud with an excitement. “Of course, I would, let’s be friends and learn more about each other and about the strange worlds we come from.” Emily nodded with a big smile on her face and placed the little rabbit girl K on the ground. “But before I go home, could you tell me what is this curious looking plant with a strong fragrant smell called? And Emily answers, “We call it Jasmine, and yes it smells wonderful, we also have other plants with different odorous. If you are interested, I can show you all of them tomorrow if you like?” And so their friendship became official. Both girls nodded at each other with a deal of understanding and waived with their paws and hummed a repeating melody on the way to their homes with a thrill of what unexpected encounter they experienced today. The rabbit girl hopped home full of energy and full of excitement to tell her mum all about her new encounter and the new plant called “Jasmine”. This little rabbit girl new adventure of discovering the whole new world of fragrant plants and flowers begins tomorrow.
