The Greatest Love of My life


Books!!!


Why did my father leave me here? He said it was a magical place.


“Little one…Come here. Why are you hiding in that corner?” asked the lady with thick glasses, who my father said was the Librarian, whatever that meant.


 The silence in the room despite the presence of many people perturbed me. 


I followed the lady despite my fears. The inner room had bright colours with small cozy chairs. I immediately fell in love. The books took me to a world of fairies, princesses and princes.


I discovered the greatest love of my life that day years ago. Books!
