My girlfriend is called Alice a-l-i-c-e. She was born at a heavy snowy night. That day, the sky was clearly blue, like a crystal transparent diamond dotted with some drops of blue paint. No one had thought it would have snowed when the cozy and a bit warm breeze blew the weed on the roof. When the dusk came closer, the dogs in the village began to run after some whirled leaves and the smoke out of the chimneys dispersed quickly. The cloud mass, floating in the diamond seemingly had been ripped and embroidered into the horizon. Then it snowed.
Feathers of snowflakes fell unexpectedly. Huge blackness instantly swallowed the remaining freshness and brightness in the nature. The barking and hurtling dogs receded into their houses, and peeked out of the gap of the two sides of the doors. The lamp light, sneaking from inside shone the dancing white masses, filling all the space. At the wink time, the ground has been covered with soft and flashing snow. The caves, the huts, and the houses were all closed to the white world, only leaving the unexpected guest enjoy the silence time.
That night, Alice was born. The snowflakes had almost crushed the roofs.
The first sound of cry brought a new creature to the dirty world.
It is destined to experience all happiness and sadness, like others do.
God like to play games with the human being, like they never know who is controlling their fate. That snowing night had never been so silent on that winter. The innocent infant was blinking at the strange world, and did not know what was lying ahead. A vastness of happiness was wrapping her family who were holding her high in the air with an eyeful of tears. Alice, my girlfriend, was crying with her full strength blindly, however, such sound was like tiny drop of water falling into the ocean.
When she smiled the first time in her life, I was supposed to watch the rain dripples from the shabby ceiling. The storm was roaring outside and I felt our house was shaking and nearly shattered by the nature force. I could not foresee how dangerous it would be, but that night, I was sleepless.
As her parents said, in their place, there was never snow. Generations and generations of people never saw real snow because few of them left the city. This city was like God-cherished and had comfortable weather and gorgeous landscape, but that night, the snowed arrived, firstly applauded for by the residents. They had not known more enormous disaster would happen years later, but luckily Alice was not there.
