This is a story I cae across and it just seemed too sweet not to share, so I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I did.
When I was four, I saw a gnome. He would follow me around whenever I was outside. He led me to a creek behind my house that nobody knew about. The creek seemed almost magical. We would spend hours each day at the creek. We did this all without communication. Then one day he spoke to me. He did this without moving his lips. He did this through his mind. He told me his name, Sebastian. He told me about his family, his wife and his daughter and son. Then he told me that I was his first human friend.
He showed me where the fairy rings were. He showed me where he lived and he showed me his family. I had known him for five years. Unfortunately, my mother told me some bad news. We were moving to a city 600 miles away. I was so sad I wouldn't eat and I couldn't sleep. I knew I had to tell him. I had to tell Sebastian. I went to the creek to look for him. He was fishing with his little bamboo fishing pole. He knew something was wrong the moment he saw me. He held out his arms and I ran to him.He gave me the most loving hug I have ever experienced. He must have read my mind because he then took my hand and led me to his home.
He dug around in his desk and pulled out a necklace that matched the one he was wearing. He then collected other things: a fairy bible, a magical creature call, a wish stone and a jewelry box. He then wrapped all the items in a cloth and gave the bundle to me. He closed his eyes and I closed mine. Next thing I knew, I was standing in front of my bedroom window with the bundle in my arms and the necklace around my neck. I looked out the window and saw him in his white hat and robe, standing three feet tall. My little friend, the gnome.
One week later, I was in my new room, 600 miles away from my best friend. I took the bundle out from the cardboard box it was in and went outside. I blew upon the fairy call and I heard the soft singing of fairies. Every night, the fairies sing me to sleep while I hold the necklace tight. I look at a single star and I know Sebastian the gnome is looking at that same star. I know Sebastian will always remember me.
