Once upon a time, in a faraway land, there lived a “numb” princess.
All the people in their kingdom are obsessed with “love” yet she could not feel such nor appreciate all the amazing stuffs around her. The princess’s behavior really frustrates the queen and the “Prodigious King”. And as powerful his father is, still he can’t let all things happen the way he wanted it especially to get rid of the numbness of his daughter.
Not until the princess turned seventeen… On her birthday ball, a handsome young prince came and candidly asked the numb yet pretty princess to dance. The prince always looked at her on the eyes yet the princess hesitates to look back. He gave her a simple present and the princess was confounded from what she received. She hugged the prince and kissed him on the check and said, “Yes! All throughout my life I’ve waited for this moment to arrive and for this "thing" to be mine. Prince, I reckon that I am finally in love…”

What do you think was the gift that changed her from being numb? Well, this is an open ended simple short story... so just free your mind of whatever thoughts you may have right now…
