How Little Thing Comes to Great
By: Ag_Argentum
Las Vegas is a luxury city in the Seventies of twentiethcentury. It was a famous by gambling and different types of performance. A top magiciancame here and would be performing tonight. A great number of people bought ticketsand talked about the performance excitedly before it starts.
The performance took place in a magnificent building;the ground was made of glossy marble, and decorated with red carpet. The crystalchandelier hanged on the ceiling; it lighted the hall and every person’s heart.The performance started. All the audiences were surprised that the top magicianwas only a 30 years old young magician. However, the audience did not have anymood to think about the magician’s age later on; they were all attracted by themagician’s fantastic and wonderful magic show, they were even afraid of missinga movement by winking. The magician was so confidence about what he was doing,a smile was on his lips all the time.
After the show, with the host’s words:
“Let us thankMr. Toby’s wonderful magic show!”
Every one of the audiences stood up; warm applause suddenlycame from the audiences and flooded the magician. Children were walking to thestage and giving flowers to him. However, the magician could not see or heardall this; his eyes were blurred by his tears. He only saw a small boy watchingan informal magic show seriously, with the light of hope in his eyes.
Toby was born in a small town, there were not somany things happened at there, so Toby was always wondering about the world outside.He went to school every day like all the other children in the town; he triedhis best to learn everything and collected all the money his parents gave him, becausehe wanted to go to see the outside world when he grown up.

    Until one day he saw a poster saying a magic show will come to the town. There was an old man wearing a black suit, pigeons were flying out of his topper, and colored ribbon and stars were surrounding him. Toby had never seen any poster as colorful as this. It was so vivid that he could even imagine himself sitting on a chair and watching the show. All of the sudden, he found what he would love to do for his whole life.
    Toby quickly ran home and asked if he could go to the show to his parents, but what he got was a firmly negation.
    “We don’t haveenough money to go see such a useless show…”
    “Magic is fake…boring…”
    “… use your timeto study…”
    “Now go back toyour room… ”
    Toby went to his room and lying on his bed, all hecould think of is the show. Though his parents rejected him, he still want togo, even going to the show means to truant.

      The day that the magic show was performed finally arrived. Toby stood in front of the ticket office with a mixture feeling of nervousness and eagerness, with a hand full of coins. He was nervous about what the teacher will think if she found out his truancy, but eager about seeing the show which appeared in his dreams. After waiting for half an hour, it wasfinally his turn; the ticket man took his money and gave him the ticket withouteven looking at him once.
      May be all hethought is about money.
      Toby thought, putting the grasp the ticket in hishand and put it in front of his chest. He could feel his heart beating so fast,what he wanted was so close to him now. His legs were shivering, and his facewas vivid with red on his cheeks. Toby took a deep breath, and then walked intothe building where the show took place.

        Sitting in a chair, other audiences were chatting around him with thing not related with the show; until the host came out and started the show. The audiences were still chatting and paying no respect, but this could not affect Toby. He was in the show; his eyes were following the magician's hands. One and another magic were showed.
        After the show ended, Toby was still in the show. When going back to home, all he thought was that he wanted to be a magician. He knew that he could do better than this magician. Back home, his parents scolded him because of his truancy.
        “You should listen…”
        “You cannot waste your time on that useless show…”
        Toby did not say anything until his parents stopped. Then he told them that he wanted to be a magician. His parents rejected him firmly, but Toby knew that he would success in magic. So he decided to leave home, and went out to study magic.

          At first, he was poor and had nothing to eat; the subway, the park, etc. were his home. But he never gave up on his dream. With his indomitable characteristic, he finally succeeded.
          Toby raised his arm and wiped his tears off, looking at the audiences that were applauding, he smiled with joy from his heart.
