"What if..."

Here is Lucy Fanfan again. I chose this setting because nature around her, depicted in a painterly style to enhance the mood, emphasises the wondering expression on her cute face. People seem to lose the ability to marvel about common situations when they grow up.

I keep wondering what she thinks here. Has she just seen something that attracted her attention, a colorfull butterfy perhaps? A caterpillar or maybe even a faerie? She might be planning something, or she could simply be thinking magical thoughts.

Perhaps it is best not to know for sure. After all, just as everybody else, Lucy has a right to keep her own little secrets... The faeries know about her secrets, but they won't tell.
