Legend Of The Lover Silk Tree

The night was as dark as ink. The crickets in the garden of the villa were chirping continuously. On this quiet night, the chirping sound was very noisy, but it was the sound of nature. The master bedroom on the second floor of the villa was still brightly lit. The blood-orange light penetrated through the thick curtains and shone on the Lover Silk Tree which was blooming outside. There was a very sad and beautiful legend about the Lover Silk Tree. It was said that the Lover Silk tree was known as the Bitter Silk tree at its early stage, and it was not supposed to bloom. Later, a scholar abandoned his wife, and the wife left in hatred. Before she left, she declared that if her husband had a change of heart, this Bitter Silk tree would start to bloom. Her husband would be the leaves, and she would be the flower. The flowers would not grow old, and the leaves would never wither. That way, they would be together forever and ever! Later on, the woman died, and the Bitter Silk tree bloomed.
