Memories

Once upon a time there liver a fat little pig, that tried for many
years to get princess mini to fall in love with him. Everyday it was a
mission for piggy to be noticeable.
But he was never noticed by the princess as he was poor, cleaned
the palace for a living and altogether he was just unworthy.

Piggy and Monkey worked together… Day in day out they were
cleaning the palace. They would not leave until every room sparkled
from the roof top to the floor boards. Princess mini never paid attention to
the cleaners, this was mainly because she had fallen foe prince Boo
Bear, and he didn’t live to far away. That’s why they would
occasionally go out to fancy places and go on picnics every now and then.

When ever Piggy saw Prince Boo Bear and Princess Mini together
his heart would shatter into a thousand pieces, this happened daily,
so I guess you could say Piggy was use to it. Piggy always worried
about Princess Mini he always thought to himself if she was okay
and were she was.

One day Piggy was very ill and called the vet for an appointment.
He stopped by the palace to tell the king that he would not be
coming in today as he needed to see somebody about his fever. The
king was very upset that the palace would not be clean. The king
told Piggy if you’re unable to come in tomorrow then he shouldn’t
bother returning. Piggy thought that was very unfair, but he started
to leave without saying a word.

While that was happening Princes Boo Bear was proposing to
Princess Mini. The Princess was so excited that she fainted outside
the palace. Prince Boo Bear was frightened and ran to get help.
Piggy was the only one near as he was almost outside the gate.
Prince Boo Bear asked Piggy, “What should I do?” Piggy replied
with a worried voice ‘I’ll take her to the vet because I’m about to
leave anyway and you go and tell the king what has happened’
Prince Boo Bear agreed and ran towards the king.

Piggy lifted Princess Mini into his work car and drove her to the vet,
Piggy carried her inside, screaming to the tip of his lungs “It’ an
emergency, the princess, the princess is hurt HELP!!!”. The
Veterinarian ran over and told Piggy to follow him. The doctor
examined the princess as she was slowly waking up. The Princess
has memory lost, the veterinarian said to Piggy. Piggy was very
confused, he thought to himself… Can you lose your memory from
fainting? Or was it a harder fall then he thought?.

The Princess looked up and opened her eyes. The first person she
saw was Piggy. He took her hand and told her that everything
would be okay. She shifted her hand away from him with terror in
her eyes, she yelled. ‘Who are you? Where am I?’ Piggy said in a
soft voice ‘You’re in the hospital Mini, you had a big fall, the vet
said that you wont gain all your memory back, well not a the
moment anyway. But if you take your medication daily you will
remember everything, so don’t worry, everything will be fine. Do
you remember me, its me Mini, your fiancé, Piggy?.

Mini stared at him for a while to try and figure out if what he was
telling was true. She believed him as her memory was blank, and
she felt like she needed to believe something. ‘When are you taking
me home?’ Mini said finally. Piggy replied, ‘I will bring the car
around and collect your medication at once’. Mini smiled, so did Piggy.

Piggy brought the car around and helped Mini walk over to it. They
got into the car, but Piggy did not bring the medication as he
thought it would be better off this way. As soon as Piggy brought
Mini back to his house. He collected up all his cloths and
Belongings and put them into the boot of his car. Piggy drove off
into the woods with Mini, were they built a little cottage next to a
beautiful waterfall. They lived there so no one not even Boo Bear or
the king could find the princess. They were shut out from the rest of
the world. They couldn’t leave the woods to get new cloths, food or
anything. They had to wash there cloths in the lake below the
waterfall, and grow there own vegetables. They had to do a lot of
things by them selves, but they always had fun doing it. Piggy lived
happily ever after, so did Mini even with her memory loss.
