The cursed tree
Nick knelt on his knees and asked Eva, "Would you be my girlfriend?" They were on a school picnic. They both were best friends. Nick felt that no matter how bad the situations were, Eva would never leave him. Eva also liked him, so she said yes.
They were both walking in the jungle when they saw a wild tree. The tree was huge and the fruits were growing near its root instead of its branches. They plucked the fruit and ate them. It was delicious, the sweetness of the fruit was beyond this world. They decided to take more fruits and grow some of them in the garden. Nick plant it in his backyard but the plant was growing slowly.
One day, Eva went to Nick's house to meet his parents. After lunch, Nick and Eva went for a walk to the same jungle as it was only one kilometer away from Nick's house.
There was a little boy was about to have the fruit but a sage told the tree was cursed. Nick and Eva were shocked. They asked the sage more about the tree. The sage said that the tree was cursed that whenever there was an earthquake it could become 10 times bigger and after it was two kilometers long, it could engulf humans.
Eva and Nick told Nick's parents about the tree and what the sage told, they decided to shift. They started moving the furniture out. Nick had two brothers, one of them was eleven and the other was four years old. Nick's younger brother asked, "Why are we shifting?" Eva consoled him by saying that the other house was better than this one so.
When they were shifting the furniture, Nick's younger brother said," I'm hungry, Eva." Everybody else was hungry too. So Eva, Nick, and his mom went to bring food for all of them. Suddenly there was an earthquake, Nick and Eva realized that now the tree would grow 10 times faster and told Nick's mom, "Take the food and go to the car. We'll bring the remaining stuff."
They ran towards the door but the plant's branch grabbed Nick's leg. Before it could swallow Nick, Eva bit the plant's branch. Eva asked Nick to run but Nick couldn't move his left leg. The plant's branches were about to surround them. Eva carried Nick in her arms and rescued him.
Eva asked Nick's parents to stay in her house until the plant was destroyed. Nick was unable to move for many years. But Eva never left him and tried all the possible ways to make him walk.
At last her, her hard work showed results and Nick was able to walk and run. Nick was happy that he was right about Eva. They both got married after completing their graduation. Nick's younger brother was the happiest in the marriage.
