The Leaf

One girl was living with her grandfather. After a while, the girl got very sick and the old man paid a doctor to see her. After he consulted her, the doctor called the old man and said to him that when the last leaf of the walnut tree from the front of house falls, the girl will die, because her illness is very serious.Through the half-open door the girl heard what the doctor said.The grandpa tried to seem that everything was alright, but the autumn came and the leaves of the walnut tree started to fall one by one.The girl was watching too the falling of the leaves. After a time, in the tree just one leaf remained, but the girl was feeling better. As time went on, she recovered completely, and one day, without being seen by her grandfather, she climbed in the walnut tree to see closer the leaf which refused to fall down. She was very surprised when she saw that the leaf was tied with a piece of wire. (OLIVIA MEHESZ)
