Blue

He is an only child, a good student, a talented and handsome young man. his family, his relatives put all their hopes in his university qualification test.
The day he knows his result, his face is covered in sadness, disappointment, embarrassment.
He failed, half a point short. If only he had been a little more careful, if only...
As if he is dead, he wanders everywhere with his soul-less body. With him, everything has collapsed, falling into the black, the darkness, as if it is devouring him.
Depressed, he stops by a girl, a disable girl, without any hands. She is using her small, little feet to draw many colorful pictures of life. Her blue sky, her pink kite, her dream, the little brush keeps dancing smoothly, gently on the white paper filling the whole picture with a shade of blue, a shade of hope.
He looks at her, tears racing down, he looks at himself, thinks.
Somewhere up high, the sky is blue, so blue, without a shade of cloud, eternal blue...
