boy meets girl

Once upon a time, there was a boy. He was a fine boy, handsome and clever. He was not a sad boy, yet his natural disposition could probably be described as more brooding than jovial.


And once there was a girl, a cherubic and sunny girl, whose tendency always leaned toward smiling. Although she had times of strife, as all girls do, it was known throughout the land that a smile could be coaxed into emergance through even the most heartfelt tears.
