The Colour Pencils

"I can't colour my drawing," I said with pouting lips. 

"My colour pencils are too short and I can't sharpen them anymore." 

A tear rolled down my cheeks and a sob escaped my lips. 

Short colour pencils. Missing colours. How can anyone let a child suffer short colour pencils and missing colours from a set. Nobody cares about me! 

The following night, my father returned home from work with ten new boxes of colour pencils. They were bundled up with a single rubber band. 

"Here," he said. "I don't want to hear nor see you cry over missing or short colour pencils ever again." 

What a lucky girl I am, I thought. Who else in this whole wide world would have ten brand new colour pencils at once. 

I beamed happily. A wide smile was plastered onto my face while my little heart grew with so much love for my generous and loving father. 

Lucky, lucky me, I thought.
