The Forgotten Garden!

It was the year 1945, and the Second World War had just come to an end. The world was still reeling from the devastation that the war had caused. In the midst of all the chaos and destruction, a young couple, Sarah and James, found themselves in the countryside of England, looking for a new beginning.

They had heard of a small village called Wilton, nestled in the heart of the English countryside, and decided to make it their new home. They rented a small cottage on the outskirts of the village and started to build a life together.

It was in the garden of their cottage that Sarah discovered a small, forgotten garden. The garden was overgrown with weeds and brambles, but Sarah saw the potential it held. She began to clear the garden, pulling up the weeds and pruning the overgrown bushes.

As Sarah worked on the garden, she began to feel a sense of peace and tranquility wash over her. She found that the act of tending to the garden was therapeutic, and it helped her deal with the trauma of the war.

James, too, found solace in the garden. He had been injured during the war and was still dealing with the physical and emotional scars. The garden gave him a sense of purpose, and he began to help Sarah with the upkeep.

As the garden began to bloom, so did Sarah and James' love for each other. They spent long afternoons in the garden, talking and dreaming of their future together.

But their happiness was short-lived. One day, while they were working in the garden, they received a letter from the army. James had been called back to duty, and he had to report to his unit in a week's time.

Sarah was devastated. She had finally found a place to call home, and now James had to leave. They spent the next few days in the garden, holding each other and trying to come to terms with the situation.

On the day James was supposed to leave, Sarah woke up early to say goodbye to him. She found him in the garden, sitting on a bench they had built together. They sat together in silence for a while, watching the sunrise.

Finally, James spoke. "Promise me that you'll take care of the garden while I'm gone," he said.

"I promise," Sarah replied, tears streaming down her face.

James stood up and pulled Sarah into a tight embrace. "I love you," he whispered.

"I love you too," Sarah replied, holding onto him tightly.

And then he was gone.

Sarah threw herself into the garden, tending to it with all her heart. She found that working in the garden helped her deal with the pain of James' absence. She poured all her love into the garden, and it flourished under her care.

Months turned into years, and Sarah waited for James to return. She wrote him letters every week, telling him about the garden and how it was flourishing under her care. But she never received a reply.

One day, a letter arrived from the army. James had been killed in action.

Sarah was devastated. She spent days in the garden, crying and trying to come to terms with the loss. But even in her grief, she continued to tend to the garden. It was the only thing that kept her going.

Years turned into decades, and Sarah grew old. The garden, too, grew old with her. It had become a symbol of her love for James and a reminder of the life they had built together.

But as Sarah grew older, she began to worry about what would happen to the garden after she was gone. She had no family or friends to leave it
