I am a small apple seed. Every day I imagine how happy I will be when I grow up and turn into a towering tree! Bathing in the sun and rain every day, listening to the birds singing for me, I thought that such a day would definitely come to me!

One fine morning, I was still sleeping. A sound of footsteps woke me up. I opened my eyes and saw, Hey! A customer came in and bought me, and I couldn't be happier! I thought: "My wish is about to come true!" But God didn't seem to want me to get my wish. The car tripped over a stone halfway, and I fell off the car and fell into the dark crevices of the rocks. I was so sad. I thought I would never see the beautiful world again, but things were not as bad as I thought. I only stayed for two or three hours when the earthworm came and covered me. The earth quilt made my body feel much warmer immediately. I stayed like this for more than seven days. On the afternoon of the eighth day, a pair of warm little hands dug up the soil, picked me up, and planted me into softer soil.
