In my dream

Seeing cherry petals blowing in the spring wind

And I feel butterflies in my stomach

Even now I'm wide awake

Hello you, 

Thank you for picking up this story! Apparently, people hate reading author's notes, so I'll try to make this short. 

This short story was originally written a while back for a fairy tale anthology and has since been edited and expanded slightly. It's loosely inspired by Little Red Riding Hood. If you know me, you've probably already learned that I'm quite the sucker for fairy tale retellings and this is just one of my many tries to put a twist on one of them.

A quick disclaimer that English is not my first language, so there might be some odd mistakes here and there though I do my best to make my work as polished as I can. If you find any that might've slipped through the cracks, feel free to point them out but please be polite about it. 

And last, but not least, if you enjoy the story, please consider voting and leaving a comment or two. It always helps struggling writers to see their work is being appreciated and feedback is, of course, also highly welcomed.

And now, I hope you enjoy reading my little tale.

Cheers, 
Rosana
