The Ballad of Blue

Chapter Two.

The Ballad of Blue.


Once upon a time,

like all the greatest love stories always start,

there was Blue.


Blue was just an ordinary character, that was what he always thought.

He was not the richest, or the smartest, or the most good looking.

He was just plain ordinary.


He had to work his ass off to be recognized.

He tried his best to be number 1 but he barely made it.

He always ended up as number 2.

And, like we always know, no one remembers number 2.


So, because he was a good character,

Blue started to accept the truth: that he wasn't good enough.

He just lived his life ordinarily.


Until Blue met Red.


Red was also a good character, that was Red always thought.

And Blue agreed with it.


Red introduced Blue to a world of possibilities,

a world where Blue could be anything that he wanted to.

Blue was happy because Red was a friend, a good one.


Blue always looked Red as a great friend, at the beginning.

But slowly, the feeling grew.

Blue felt the ticklish feeling whenever Red talked.

And he loved it.


Unfortunately, Red knew it.

Red knew that Blue had that feeling.

So, Red went away.


Left Blue alone.

With the ballad on his heart.
