The Magician that wish to know love



Once upon a time,in a mountain far away from the village liveda solitary wizard, that lifestyle allowed him to practice his magic without fear of being discovered, he could levitate objects throughout the living room, bewitch objects to do the domestic chores while he thought of new spells and counter spells.

One day, however; he realized that he was quite bored, his days were the same for years, he did not have any familiar in that place, or friend or acquaintance. That night he meditated about his situation and felt very distressed, he was still young and he had not allowed himself to live in a real way; magic was his life, everything revolved around it, but he had never worried about the things that affected others, and that represented an incomplete life for him.

He would then have to venture into the world, because deep down he was afraid of being rejected, but now, whatever, nothing lost with trying! He began to formulate his plan, first he had to put his cottage in order, both inside and out, he did not feel the idea of a stranger breaking into his property. He pack the things that consider most useful; a couple of books, his diary of notes, coats, and some gold.

He made a small list of the things he wanted to do while he was away from home:

• Go to dance.
• Try different foods.
• Work as men of his age did.
• Take care of himself without using magic (at least in the simplest things).

Knowing what everyone calls "love or falling in love", whatever it may be.

After having secured his home with different spells, he undertook his adventure, walking through the forest, enjoying nature and without using magic, that was very curious since his whole life had been dependent on it, but, now he felt very confident with each step he took.While walking, he asked himself, What it would be like to be in love? Then, he remindsa time before exiling, when he had lived with other magicians, and unlike him, they had experienced the pleasures of romance... He could get a beautiful girl to give his heart to. Yes the object of love should be beautiful! Or that what he thought.

In the afternoon he arrived at the town where he wanted to settle, it was strange to be there, everyone seemed very busy and with something to do. He entered a small inn and went to the owner.

_Excuse me, could I stay at your inn for tonight?

_Of course, it will be two coins, you can eat before I drive you to your room.

And so it was, the young wizard ate, drank and talked to several men who were there. To his surprise and good luck one of the men named Juan offered work in his bakery, there was not much to do, since it was a very small one, but the idea of learning something new was very tempting. At the end of the night when the innkeeper took him to his room, he felt very fortunate, until now everything was going well and without a drop of magic.

It dawned, the day he would have his first official job, he got up and went straight to the bakery. The smell that emanated from the place was magnificent, the best things he had smelled in his life.

That day the baker gave him to taste all kinds of breads some sweet and others salty, with fillings and also hot drinks, at the end of the day the magician had learned some basic recipes ones with some culinary tricks. That night he returned to the inn since he still did not have an own house, but he would worry about that later; he had to write it on the list, and smiley because it would surely grow every day.

The next day he got up and went to his job, took a breakfast and began his work. After about three hours a very pretty young woman appeared with a view to buying bread. He had never engaged a conversation with a girl, so he was very nervous and clumsy, and seeing her go through the door just thought about how he ruined his opportunity.

During the night he thought about that episode, until now everything was fine, he had a place to sleep, a job, eaten new food, he had already crossed off things from the list and he was looking for a permanent place to live, however, with the young woman It had gone very wrong, in the end she left very confused by the attitude of the magician who did not know how much change had to give her for the purchase.

It was time to use a little magic! That day he would leave earlier the work and instead of going straight to the inn to sleep he would look for the girl and invite her to dance so he would get two things from his list. It was not difficult to find her, the magician made several tricks of magic with great success and she did not stop asking how he did it, he offered to teach her in exchange for giving the honor of teaching him to dance.

That night they entered to the ballroom immediately the young magician noticed that his partner was the center of attention of many young people, and most disconcerting to him, she seemed to like this kind of attention very much. After a few minutes the young woman was so absorbed in conversation with others boys that she forgot her promise to teach the magician how to dance, and after an hour she was totally engrossed, she did not stop dancing, but, without him. Our young wizard felt very hurt and decided to leave the place.

In the solitude of his room, he thought that night had been one of the worst for him, abandoned by his partner did not know how to solve his situation, he did not even thought about use the magic, it was as if a layer of Ice would have hovered over him, he concluded that he would be more careful the next time he was attracted to someone else.

Two months passed and everything went very well, the magician with a lot of effort and a little help from his magical gifts managed to have a small house near his work, he knew how to cook, from time to time he went for a walk, to interact with other people or with the animals that circulated around the town. The girl never apologizes to him, maybe never consider him a potential suitor.

One day while he was on the way to the market he found two children a girl and a boy,looking careless, rummaging through the trash, that really touched his heart and soul, to the point of making his tears come. He approached them and offered them food,the children accepted and hug him as never before had someone done it.

The magician adopted them as his own, he gave them everything he could give them, finally he had a bigger purpose for his list, for his life, and most importantly he knew true love through two little people who really needed him, that feel was true magic.

One day, the magician and the children walked for the forest, they saw a young woman. .

Theirs looks crossed… a new history began to be formed, maybe the magician even had things by cross out the his list.
