Jophly lead me to two large bushes. "Welcome to my secret garden." Jophly said cheerfully.
Confused at his statement I asked," where?" Jophly responded has he pulled a button," here."
Suddenly the two large bushes slit open to a beautiful garden. It looked like the Garden of Eden. "This is my secret garden." Jophly stated with a smile on his face.
"Wow it's looking breathtaking." I whispered softly in astonishment. "By the way, how did you discover this amazing place?" I asked curiously.
"Well my late elder sister, Natalie and I found this garden. But I didn't look like this...it was neglected. Natalie and I sent our time fixing and nurturing this place back to life." Jophly explained with passion and joy in tone.
As I felt a mixture of surprise and amazement at the garden. "Well you really did a great job. Wait! Did you say your elder Sister is late?" I questioned with a hint of shock.
Suddenly, Jophly expression changed, a heap of sadness came over him. "Well my sister died a year ago due that she had bone cancer." Jophly explained sadness evident in his tone.
"I understand how you feel, my mom and dad died in a fire. That burning fire seeing it.... made my heart also to be in flames. My relatives seeing that there was no will...got the properties and sent me to this Orphanage. I really felt betrayed and abounded." I commented tears welled up again.
"That's really sad... you know killing myself... Isn't going to solve the problem." Jophly said softly.
"I know am just really tired of this life. I have no parents and no friends. Am all alone and in pain of what happened." I expressed sadly feeling a weight lifted off my chest.
"You are not alone any more I will be your friend. If you allow me to." Jophly noted gently tapping my shoulders.
"I already you are my friend. I have accepted you has one." I replied with a slit smile.
"Of course." Jophly said with a bright smile. "You know being here in this garden reminds of Natalie...all we sent...I feel close to her. Maybe you should have some that makes you feel close to your parents." Jophly suggested with a smile.
"I think you are right. But being in this garden... reminds of the times when parents and I used to go to the park to have fun." I expressed with joy and happiness.
"Well that's sounds great. From now on this our secret garden." Jophly noted and gave me a gentle nudge on my shoulder. After that moment, things started to take a great turn.
