Toys Loved

There was a boy that loved to play with dolls. He made sure that they were never scratched or damaged, and maintained their clothing and toy weapons and accessories with the highest care. When he played with them, each doll would become part of a grand and exciting adventure, because the boy just loved to play with his dolls. Each day after he was done playing, he would pick up his dolls one by one, and lay them inside a box, making sure not to overlap them on one another because each one was special to him. Even when the boy became older and stopped playing with his dolls, he didn't sell them away but he kept them in boxes and made sure they were properly stored. When he got married he even took his dolls with him to his new home, although to be expected his wife gave him a very strange look when he opened the box to show her.
