What is that short story? Do you like reading short stories? Short stories must have been familiar since we were in elementary school. 

We have read various stories in books, but do you know what is the difference between short stories and other stories? For those of you who want to write short stories, you must listen to the following understanding of short stories.

As is known, short stories are referred to as prose fiction where when reading short stories are usually very quickly finished. In addition, the contents of the short story are also very easy to understand because the story is relatively short. Therefore, many people like short and uncomplicated stories like short stories.

Check out the short story examples below:

Florist

  A little girl named Nasya lives in Italy, exactly across the "Venice" bridge. With the bicycle he was pedaling, this child was recognized by people around him across the bridge which he said he really enjoyed, especially if she looked at the urban atmosphere from the bridge's angle. Not when he stopped for a moment while looking at the passing of people after work.

Some carry a bag of cookies in their hands, some ride motorbikes with their children and there are even men with briefcases that seem to contain a lot of files. Because she is happy with his basket bicycle, it doesn't mean he often goes for no reason but because of the flower shop he often stops by. 

Yes! The flower shop, the flower shop that she visited almost every week, you could say the florist's mother knew very well this little girl's face. The shop owner's was named Charlotte.

The flower shop is a place to see this little paradise in the city, it is very beautiful for every eye that sees it, the colors and the various shapes of each petal make people more attracted to the flowers in this shop. "One day I also want to have a flower shop with a bicycle basket full of beautiful flowers," said the woman.

 One time of the week Charlotte, the owner of this flower shop, doesn't see a woman parking her bicycle basket in front of her shop. Usually he is always there on weekends, this time he didn't stop by. Even though Charlotte wanted to give a beautiful flower arrangement that didn't match the various flower arrangements in her shop, she said she wanted to give this to a soft-hearted woman with flowers that resembled the girl's character. 

As soon as he waited, this girl came with a broken bicycle chain which she pushed on foot. Charlotte rushed out of the flower shop, asking what she was worried about. This girl only answered with a smile that made everyone who saw her feel at peace beside her. His smile gave off a peaceful impression and instantly made Charlotte's anxiety disappear.

 Charlotte said "your smile is exactly the color of the flowers, the anxiety that I feel is covered with the flowers you have on your face". You don't need to look for many flowers because the real flower is in yourself deep in your tender heart". The flower will always describe the owner, when we take good care of it, there will be no dust on the flower. 

But if you are a person who doesn't like flowers, don't take care of them because you just want to torture them, just look at them. "There are various types or even thorny ones, you who don't know the character of flowers can hurt you," said the shop owner. Soon Charlotte waved for the girl who was going back to her house across the bridge. But this child doesn't know the name of the flower he arranged.

  Charlotte said that this flower is a combination of rosa alba with some white tulips because white roses symbolize purity and peace are so sincere and white tulips with their crowned crown remind to stay humble. 

"I deliberately cut the rosa alba without removing the thorns because if anyone wants to damage it she will show other characters who are tough at one time and are very good if we recognize her, so don't mess with the flower". The flower is a combination of a simple color character with white but there is a beauty in it.

 Come home this girl excitedly enjoying every corner of urban traffic with the sound of car horns, the sound of puddles or even the smell of a cake shop before the bridge. It's so beautiful to enjoy the diversity on every corner of the road back home, stop for a while to watch the sun begin to sink to its orange not when this child smiles up at the sky for such a peaceful day looking at the flower arrangements in his bicycle basket.
