It's that time of the year. The Ice Fairy presented her yearly gift to the entire forest. Mother Nature went to sleep and the fairy gave the forest her white blanket. She wasn't going to sleep though, quite the opposite, she was the most energetic and outgoing this time of the year, rarely ever withdrawing behind her wall of ice. She cheerfully summoned a name, with her most heart tingling voice:
"My lovely lover, reliable friend and adorable maid, Lady Umay, may I request your company?"
Whether by the magic of her fairy wings or her tender and passionate heart, I found myself in her presence.
"Greetings, princess, once again I am the most blessed to see your charming face? How may I help you?" I bowed.
She smiled: "Firstly, my sun, cease the trivial coldness in your behaviour and honor my name in your lips."
I blushed: "Ah well, my morning star, my most heartfelt apologies, I have been dazzled by your appearance once again, you seem so exceptionally bright today, Alexandra."
Alexandra chuckled: "Darling, the winter is upon us, my magic gets particularly powerful, we are free of uninvited eyes, I can enjoy the forest as much as I desire, the most significantly I am not alone this time for the first time!" She held my hands and we shared a hug: "Umay, we shall celebrate winter together!"
A particular feeling I have been feeling was quite strong now. Being an ice fairy is almost an injustice to her when her touch is the softest and warmest feeling you can ever enjoy, her only likeness to ice is her unyielding elegance and relative ease she opens herself at sight of faintest of embers. After all, I am still pretty much in the opinion of I am not worthy of her beauty, friendship and love but she calls me her "Sun". I am eternally in debt of her attention and will use everything in me to the fullest to be worth of her praise!
With our hands locked to each other, we strolled in the forest, her dashing blonde hair was even more awe-inspiring in the snow, with her hair tips gently dancing with the wind. Her magic was indeed more powerful today, she couldn't help herself to share it with the forest. In where she leaves her soft footprints snowdrops, sprang up and blossomed, in twigs she touched fruits grew, the sparrow perched on her finger glowed with light and sprinkled dust as it flapped its wings. the melody she sang with her angelic voice made the entire forest all the more serene in its slumber. Of course I was unable to differentiate between dream and reality again, when you spent time with her, everything felt too good to be true.
Yet she was right behind me, with her uniquely heart-melting smile, even for a hapless dreamer like me, the incredible amount of pure joy and happiness was too vivid to just to be in my head. Then her dignified yet joyful eyes turned on me once again.
"Shall we erect a monument to the fresh happiness winter brings us?" she asked.
"Of course! While the forest itself witness our joy, we should leave something truly personal? But what shall it be?" I answered enthusiastically.
"A snow person, I have in mind, they can last as long as winter does and will leave its spirit to new life is born in forest with the coming of the spring."
"It's spirit?" I asked.
"Well." She said playfully. "You wouldn't expect a snowperson made by me, simply watch the forest standstill."
I was confused. "Then what will happen to snowperson when the weather warms up? Or do you desire to use your eternal ice?"
"Not necessary. Oh it won't depart away, Umay, don't look at me concerned, every spirit born in this forest stays here and what truly deserves a monument is our love, which is eternal and rejuvenates in every season; Just like a flower in spring, a grown tree in summer and new seeds of autumn, the winter too must have something to witness our love and what's better to manifest it in snow?"
"I don't understand entirety of your intentions here darling, but I am simply excited to see how it turns out! You are one wrong about one thing, our love doesn't rejuvenate every season, it rejuvenates whenever I see your warm smile!"
So we began to build our snowperson. I was merely following the lead of Alexandra, she was shaping the snow with quite passion and enthusiasm. In the end, it took the shape of a winged angel, with glowing blue eyes, smiling face and opened arms made of ice giving it a welcoming posture.
"Yes! It's finished!" the fairy said cheerfully. "Now, it's time to test! Wake up, The Snow Angel!"
Snowperson's eyes started to flash and a pleasant voice was heard : "Greetings! How may I assist you?"
Alexandra turned to me: "Umay, ask something to her, please!"
I was quite surprised: "Um, well, snow angel, who are you?"
The pleasant voice was heard again: "I am the snow angel, a spirit born from the magic of the ice fairy and bond with her significant other. My aim is to help the those who are passing through Forest."
I could hide my amazement no more: "Aaaaaaa, darling, is this truly a fruit of our love?"
She nodded. "Yes, my beloved princess, it is! My magic is especially powerful when you are close to me. The snow angle will assist those who need it during my absence."
"Your absence?"
"Well, thanks to snow angel, I am now free of most of my duties and can join the company of people who I cherish the most." She held my hand. "You."
"Well, well, I...", my heart was beating so fast that it felt like it could hop out of my body in an instant!
"Hold your words!" She interrupted. "Close your eyes for a moment please?"
I complied. Some seconds later she spoke again: "You can now open..."
What a sight I witnessed! Now not only my heart was light as a feather, I was literally floating in the skies and feeling the presence of a pair of wings in my back, similar to the fairy's but mine were pink.
"Now, Umay, do you desire to join me in new adventures, just two of us together?" She extended her hand.
"This is far greater than anything I could have wished! The greatest magic is indeed your love." I took her hand.
And we soared in the skies together, as our wings wrote our love to the skies, the snow angel watched over the land. Then we also did other activities, that would require being very close. Everything felt like a dream, such was the true power of the ice fairy's affection!
