The Best Present in the World

Soon, it would be the birthday of a friendly teacher, Miss Ho. Everyone had a great present for Miss Ho, except Coco. She thought all week about what to give Miss Ho. Coco wanted to give a special gift ever.

Coco thought hard. She asked Miss Ho’s friend, Miss Chan, “Do you know what things Miss Ho likes?” Miss Chan said, “I don’t know. However, I know that many women like a perfume or a lipstick.” Nevertheless, Coco’s money would not be enough to buy these expensive things. Then, she thought hard. What else could she give to Miss Ho?

Afterwards, Coco asked her sister, “What do you think would be the best and special gift ever.” Her sister said, “Well, sometimes the best gifts are the ones that come from the heart. Could you make something yourself? I think your teacher will be happy.”

What present could Coco make? Suddenly, she had a special idea. She could make her own perfume to Miss Ho. If Miss Ho was sad or angry, she would be happy after she smelt the odor of the perfume.

First, Coco caught some fairies. Then, she took their tears and her tears. Next, she put some different kinds of the flower petals and the tears in a bottle and stir it. When the petals dissolved in the tears, she put some water in the bottle. After that, she waited for three minutes and it finished. Finally, she wrapped the perfume in a beautiful box.

On the next day, Coco gave the gift to Miss Ho. When Miss Ho opened it, a huge smile filled her face. After Miss Ho put the perfume on her face, Coco said, “This perfume is so special with my tears.” Miss Ho was so angry as she heard what Coco said. Miss Ho threw Coco’s perfume away and punished Coco. At that time, Coco knew that her perfume was in failure.
