Once Upon A Time...

There was a...

There lived a girl called Rin. She was very young when her moms and dads died. When Izayio, who was taking care of her, got a job in Frankfurt, she assumed it fit to take Rin to her Grandpa Inutashio who resided on Mount Alm.

Rin was scared of her Grandfather. She had heard Izayio say that Grandpa was a mean man who did not like anyone.

Reaching her Inutashio's house Rin told him timidly. "Hello, grandpa. " Inutashio said, "Why have you come over here? " "I have come here to live together with you, " Heidi told him. "Oh, I see, " he said, "Who made the decision that?.

Before Rin could say anything, Kohaku the goat-herd came up there with the goats, screaming. Izayio asked Rin to go and play with Kohaku while Izayio herself started discussing with Inutashio.

Leaving Rin with Grandfather Inutashio , Izayio went away.

At night, Rin had a dinner of dark loaf of bread and toasted cheese. She didn't like to drink milk. But Inutashio said, "No, you should drink it; this will make you strong and healthy. " Inutashio had created a hay-bed for her. Outside, the wind, passing through three fir trees, sounded just like a lullaby, sending Rin to quick sleep.

Kohaku came there again, the following morning. Heidi went to Inutashio to get his approval for hanging out to the field. Inutashio conveniently agreed.

Rin ran about over the green grass and had fun with the goats. Later in the day, she all of a sudden called Kohaku, "Hey Kohaku! look above. The sky and the hills are on fire. " She also explained to Grandfather about the fire. "It wasn't fire, my kid. It was the sun saying goodbye to the mountains" Grandpa told her. "Oh, Inutashio! How lovely this place is! I will never ever leave this place. " Rin said. filled with excitement.

One early spring day, Izayio returned there to visit Inutashio. She told Inutashio that a wealthy man in Frankfurt wanted to adopt Rin. He wanted her to give company to his suffering daughter. Heidi would not want to go. But she agreed when Izayio assured to bring her back again the next day.

Izayio had said 'yes', but Inutashio knew Rin would not come back. He kept standing outside of the house, looking at her go till she was out of eyesight.

Once in Frankfurt, Izayio took Heidi to a big wonderful house. Heidi was introduced to a little older girl. She was seated on a wheelchair, "She is Kagome, dear. You see, Kagome is not well and for that reason she has to use a wheelchair. She is a good buddy. " Izayio told Rin.

Later, Rin realized Izayio was right. Kagome was really nice and kind. She too, like Rin, wanted to laugh.

Rin discovered that Kagome's mom, like her very own, had passed away when she was a small child. Miss Rottenmeyer had brought her up following her mom's demise.

Miss Rottenmeyer did not like Rin simply because she had never attended school and she could not read and write. Rin was always kind to servants which Miss Rottenmeyer believed did not behove rich people. She also disliked Rin's dinner table manners.

Kagome's Grandmother lived in a far-off town. When she learned about Rin, she visited Frankfurt to meet her. miss Rottenmeyer was all set with a number of complaints. "Heidi is just not fit to give Kagome company. " miss Rottenmeyer advised Grandma.

"Do not worry; I will educate her how to read and write as well as the good manners. " said Izayio. She requested one of the maids to go to the marketplace to get some books. Grandma found Rin very keen on studying.

Rin missed the mountains, the green grass, the blossoms and the goats of Mount Alm. At the same time, she missed her Grandfather. Kagome was a adorable girl. however city was terrible. Rin wished to escape.

Every night, she would imagine her times in Mount Alm. But at the end of each night, her hopes and dreams too ended and in the morning, she yet again found herself in the mansion in Frankfurt.

Over the past a number of days, Miss Rottenmeyer found the main door wide open in the morning. The last night, she had also witnessed a white figure in the hall.

"I think there exists a ghost in the home. " she told Kagome's father and the doctor. That night, both of them anxiously waited in the corridor. Sometime in the middle of night, they heard the door open. They stood short of breath as they saw Rin coming out of the door, as if in sleep.

"Rin is homesick. " the doctor told Kagome's daddy after looking at her. "We probably should not keep her, here, anymore. Her condition may grow more serious. She may become very sick if we do not send her back home. "

Kagome and her father could not want Rin to return. But they also could hardly see her suffer. Therefore they made a decision to send her to Mount Alm the very next day.

After a day's Travelling from Frankfurt, Rin arrived at Mount Alm. She saw Grandpa standing close to his cottage, unhappy and alone. She ran towards him. The old man broken into tears as he took his loving Rin into arms. "Where had you been all these days, my girl? Did you ever remember this old man? " Grandfather said to Rin.

That night, Rin one more time heard the lullaby she had never forgotten.

After a few days, Kagome also came to visit Rin. She and Rin would play on the mountains. At night, they would alongside one another sleep on the hay-bed. They would also eat together.

Kohaku did not like the company of Kagome. He was envious. "If I push her wheelchair down the hill, Kagome will have no other choice than to return to the city, " Kohaku thought. Finding a chance, he pushed Kagome's wheelchair over a high cliff.

But Kohaku was wrong. Kagome would not get back to Frankfurt. Rather, she began walking gradually. She too did not want to leave the mountains. Kohaku felt embarrassed of his bad behavior.

Both Kohaku and Rin given a hand to Kagome to walk slowly and gradually but steadily. Fresh milk and mountain fresh air made her more healthy and stronger. In a short time. she was able to walk on her own.

After some time, Kagome's daddy came over there to take Kagome back to Frankfurt. He could not believe that his eyes when he witnessed Kagome walk without the wheelchair.

"I do not wish to leave this place. Please let me live here for ever. " Kagome pleaded with her father. "These mountains are amazing. " Kagome's daddy said to her. "You will spend each and every summer time here. Let us get back now. "

AND THEY LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER

THE END
