One of my friends once asked for a very beautiful girl's hand in my village, but she refused his proposal. When he related the event to me, I told him that he instantly reminded me of the cartoon of a fairy tale I used to watch on TV as a child. I am sure you all know the tale of the frog that turned into a prince the moment it was kissed by a princess. It is this fairy tale I am talking about. I am comparing this friend's story with the tale of the frog, for they have a lot in common. I very well know this friend; he has almost all good qualities, including wealth. The only defect he has got is that he is remarkably short. The frog was in dire need of being kissed so as to turn into a handsome prince, and my friend was in dire need of getting married to the beautiful girl so as to show her that he was the most well-mannered and kindest man she could ever encounter in her life. Happily, the frog was kissed. Sadly, my friend was turned down.
