Mystery
The Selfish Giant
Every afternoon, as they were coming from school, the children used to go and play in the Giant's garden. It was a large lovely garden, with soft green grass. Here and there over the grass stood beautiful flowers like stars, and there were twelve peach-trees that in the spring-time broke out into delicate blossoms of pink and pearl, and in the autumn bore rich fruit. The birds sat on the trees and sang so sweetly that the children used to stop their games in order to listen to them. "How happy we are here!" they cried to each other.

Twenty-three years she had lived in this house, and only now, sorting through his effects after his death, did she understand that she had never truly left it.

The Blue Notebook. AI-Generated.
A rainy Tuesday in London was the kind of day people usually forgot. Grey clouds hung low, buses hissed through puddles, and strangers hurried past each other with their heads down. But for Noah Carter, it was the day everything changed.
