A broken vase
A young man who lived in London was in love with a beautiful girl. Soon she became his fiancée. The man was very poor but the girl was rich. The young man wanted to make her a present on her birthday. He wanted to buy something beautiful for her, but he had no idea how to do it, as he had a very little many. The next morning he went to a shop. There were many fine things there: rings, gold watches, diamonds – but all these things were too expensive.
There was one thing he couldn’t take his eyes off. It was a beautiful vase. That was a suitable present for his fiancée. He had been looking at the vase for half an hour when the manager of the shop noticed him. The young man looked so pale, sad and unhappy that the manager asked what had happened to him. The young man told him everything. The manager felt sorry to him and decided to help him. A brilliant idea struck him.
The manager pointed to the corner of the shop. To his great surprise the young man saw a vase broken into many pieces. The manager said: “I can help you. I shall order my servant to pack it and take it to your fiancée. When he enters the room, he will drop it.”
On the birthday of his fiancée the young man was very excited. Everything happened as had planned. The servant brought in the vase, as he entered the room he dropped it. There was horror on everybody’s face. When the vase was unpacked the quests saw that each piece was unpacked separately.

It’s a beautiful story of a young man and his love adventures.
It was almost two centuries ago when the cupidman let his arrow of love on Alan and Allison. They met each other at the autumn ball. It was a love at the first sight.
Almost two month gone. They enjoyed every minute that they spent together, they were in love as much as it can be possible. Yeah, it was something more than love affair. They were sure that it was a destiny.
So, one day Alan invited Allison to the voyage on the boat down the Thames to look at the beautiful lights of a night London. He was a big romantic.
Alan:
- Oh, Allison. You are the queen of my heart.
Allison:
- Thank you my prince charming.
Alan:
- You know what? I need you more in my life.
Allison:
- We are going to see each other a lot more.
Alan:
- No, you didn’t understand! I want to be with you every second, every minute, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week! I want to be with you forever!
Allison:
- Oh, Alan! What a beautiful words! You know that I want it too.
(He gives her some chocolates.)
Allison:
- Oh, Thank you Alan.
(She opens the chocolate.)
Allison:
- Oh my God! Alan, is this…
Alan: My Darling,
You are the every breath that I take,
You are the every step that I make,
Let me be your endless love forever,
Cause you mean my life to me.
- Dear Allyson - Marie Harvard, we were meant to be together, will you marry me?!
Allison:
- Oh, dear Alan! I’m yours, I was always yours and that will stay that way forever!
Alan:
- Does it mean “YES”?
Allison:
- Yes, Alan, Yes!

One day when Alan was sitting at home and dreaming about Allison the postman brought him a letter.
Postman:
- Are you Mr. Somers?
Alan:
- Yes, I am.
Postman:
- This is for you. Sign up here.
Alan:
- Ok! Thank you!
“Dear Alan, You can’t even imagine how happy I am now. You are the reason of my happiness… Thank you so much for being in my life, for making my life complete. I wanted to tell you that this evening I’m going to make my birthday party, that’s a good reason to introduce you to my family. Ohh, I just can’t wait for that moment! I will be waiting for you. With love. Your Allison”
Author: “Oh, everythig’s perfect”- you may think. But there was a thing that stressed Alan much. He was poor. He spent all money that he saved for a long time on Allison’s ring. He didn’t know what to do because she was rich and he couldn’t go there with nothing on his hands.
Alan:
- Oh. What should I do now? I have only 50 cent in my pocket. Oh, it’s my end. What would I do if she will leave me…
Author: A lot of different thoughts came on his mind when he walked down the street. Then he went to the shop. He entered the room with gifts and almost lost his speaking abilities. His eyes ran all over the room that was full of rings, golden watches and shining diamonds..
He stared at all those beauties when suddenly he noticed a beautiful vase. He couldn’t take away his eyes off that vase. It was the perfect present for his fiance. He stood there for half an hour. Shop manager noticed Alan and asked him if he can help him:
Shop Manager:
- Good day Mr. Welcome to our shop.
Alan:
- Thank you…
Shop manager:
- Oh, you look so unhappy! What happened?
Alan:
- Oh, You can’t even imagine what I’m feeling now. I’m in love with a beautiful lady. She is the best thing I ever had. Today’s her birthday and she’s going to introduce me to her family and friends. But there is one thing that troubles me.
She is from the rich family. But I’m not. I have no money to buy her the gift she really deserves. I don’t know what to do!
Shop manager:
- Oh, I’m so sorry. That’s really sad. If only I could help you…
Author: It was a minute of silence when suddenly the shop manager shouted:
Shop manager: Oh, I got an idea! Look at the corner! Do you see that?
Alan:
- What.. What is that? Oh, that’s a broken vase. But, Mr, what would I do with a broken vase!?
Shop Manager:
- Oh, let me explain. I’ll order my servant to pack it for you and take it to your lady. When he enters the room, he will drop it. Did you understand what I mean?
Alan:
- Oh, I got it! You’re a genious! Thank you so much!
Shop Manager:
- look! That young man has a little problem and we just have to help him! Go and pack that broken vase. Try to make it look from outside like it wasn’t broken. Then you have to go with him to his bride’s birthday, enter the room and drop it right in front of her hands! Get it?
Shop Assistant:
- Yes, sir!
Shop Assistant:
- Oh, I’m so sorry! Please, forgive me, I didn’t want…
Allison:
- No, it’s okay. Keep calm.
Alan:
- But Allison…
Allison:
- No, Alan, really. Everything’s okay. It was accidentally. Don’t worry. The main thing is that you are here with me.
Alan:
- Oh, my princess, you are so kind!
Аllison:
- But I’m fancy to know what was there. Let’s unpack it!
Author:
- She unpacked the gift and everybody saw that each peace of the vase was packed separately.
