In the beautiful city of Novgorod lived a girl named Masha. She was only seven years old. She was staying with her grandmother, not far from the central square of the city, where a Christmas tree was set up during every New Year celebration.
The girl would go out onto the balcony and watch the beautiful festive lights for hours. But she was sad. She missed her parents very much, who were in isolation because of coronavirus. The most anticipated holiday would be spent apart, not together.
There were only a few hours left until New Year. The girl and her grandmother went to the square, where people were celebrating. At the Christmas tree, Snegurochka, Father Frost's helper, approached Masha.
Why are you so sad and not coming to get a gift from grandfather?
Asked Snegurochka.
He has a surprise prepared for everyone and, of course, lots of sweets!
I don't want New Year without Mum and Dad.
Answered the girl.
On this holiday, I know how to make everyone happy. I will help you. Take this magical snowflake. Two minutes before the clock strikes midnight, make a cherished wish and melt the snowflake with your warmth.
When she got home, Masha put the snowflake outside the window and waited impatiently for the approaching New Year. When there were only two minutes left until midnight, the girl held the snowflake in her palm, and quickly thought about seeing her parents.
From Masha's warmth, the snowflake turned into a drop of water, and her grandmother came into the room, holding a beautiful little box.
Your mum and dad are giving you a new mobile phone, now you can easily call them and chat via video call.
At that moment Masha was the happiest child. She dialled her mum's number and not only heard, but also saw her beloved parents beautifully.
Grandmother sat in her armchair and watched the incredibly joyful girl and her equally happy parents.
She was over the moon with happiness, because despite the obstacles, they were all together again celebrating New Year!
May all your cherished wishes come true too!
