        head. She walked along the path across the garden, each step
        taking in all the nostalgic memories. In the middle lay a white
        bench, surrounded by a huge white cage, rose vines creeping on
        it. To the right of her was a statue of a Pegasus- antique and finely
        carved.

              Daisy sat on the bench and slowly turned the page of her
        book over to where she left off. Surrounded by the peaceful
        atmosphere and the sharp scent of rose, she lost track of time.
        Suddenly, she heard a voice, as soft as a cloud and as delicate as
        a flower- the one that she would fall for and obey everything it told
        her to do. The voice came from the statue, now on her left. Daisy
        followed the voice and stood in front of the statue. The voice came
        ringing in her head once again telling her to pet the Pegasus. She
        did so then she heard a click sound. The Pegasus’ mouth opened
        then a small box slipped out. She opened the box and there was a
        small key inside, the one that is not wouldn’t fit the normal size door
        keyhole. She kept the key inside her cardigan’s pocket and went
        back to reading. The next time she looked up, was when she heard
        a faint calling of her maid. She couldn’t make out what she said but
        she knew it was for that dinner was ready.

              Daisy sat down at the dinner table. She lived with her mother
        and father, yet the dinner table was so big and it only made her feel
        even more lonely. Daisy finished her dinner, went back to her room
        and did her night routine.

              It was only seven p.m. but Daisy already felt tired. She put
        her book on the nightstand before clambering into bed. As her
        consciousness ebbed, her mind swirled into a new dream.
