There was once a girl named Vivi. She was a second grader. She was a simple girl who would play all day long, and she had a vivid imagination. Each day, every second, she came up with something new and original.
“Let’s go and play the kingdom! We’ll make our own land!" Vivi joyfully said to her classmates during the recess break at school.
“Don’t be so childish!” Her classmates, still children, pushed her away. They couldn’t take their eyes off of their cell phone displays and their fingers were tapping so fast. It was like they thought that the one who managed to tap through the other side of the cell phone could win a mega-super-large tablet.
Vivi was a jolly and friendly child, but she felt alone somehow. And it's no wonder. She started gradually to close off and started being more silent and sadder. Of course, her mother and father noticed it. But they had no idea of how to deal with it, since Vivi kept almost all her feelings to herself.
“Why won’t you go out and play with friends?” her mother would ask.
“Who will I play with? Everyone thinks I’m childish and silly!” said Vivi sadly.
“What’s wrong with being a child? I'm sure your classmates would love to grow up as soon as possible, but all in good time”.
“I also want to grow up. So that I can do whatever I like. If I can’t play, why be a child?”
Vivi’s mom was worried about what she said. And honestly, she had no idea how to help her daughter. She was an adult and Vivi needed to be with her peers.
In the evening, Vivi’s mom started reading a fairy tale to the girl. Well, not only to…
