As Aurora was oblivious and did not completely understand what the letter meant she still continued in her job.. As days went by she tried and tried to understand that letter, the letter which touched and embraced her heart but still couldn't find a way.

 One day on the 9rd of June she went to a trip to Alaska, for a specific reason, to see one of the most beautiful things in this world, her name.. Aurora. Aurora, the Northern lights. When she reached, she checked-in in a hotel and rested for a while. As night came by she was leaving to see the tourist place but she felt a strange feeling but, this time it was more like a connection, she felt as if someone was calling for her, someone who she knew, for ages. Since she could not do anything she ignored this feeling and left for the lights. When she reached the time was around 9 in the night, away from the city lights, away from noise. After a while, there she saw.. the most beautiful lights she always wanted to see, her name....Aurora

As she saw the lights, she felt this strong and strange feeling as if someone pierced a sword into her heart, she fell, onto the ground

As she saw the lights, she felt this strong and strange feeling as if someone pierced a sword into her heart, she fell, onto the ground. She dived into pain without knowing how it was caused, she felt like the world was leaving her hand and she went down and down into a hole she never  could see nor listen. Her moments of joy felt like it ended... She felt like it was the first and last time she would see those lights until...until a hand held her waist, a hand which carried her, an eye which reached the depths of hers and a connection she never felt before. There he was a man, a savior, who quickly carried her and moved to a safer place, his home. He gently placed her on a piece of blanket and gave her some water. Aurora felt like the sword had been eliminated out of her heart and that the endless dive into the hole had come to an end.. she felt ease, a comfort she never felt before as he held her hand till she could get up. As she sat with half opened eyes, she heard a gentle yet deep voice which said "Miss, are you alright now?" though she could hardly respond, she relied with a soft yet thankful voice saying "Yes, I am now, thanks to you." 

The man : Give me a sec, lemme get a cup of hot water for you

Aurora: Its fine, I'm fine... I'm sure I've already caused you enough trouble, I should get going. Thank you...

The man: At this condition? no way...Look miss, I understand that you wanna go, but at this condition you really should stay here for a while. Trust me, you"ll feel all better when I get you some of my home made cookies.

And ya, you haven't caused me any trouble...Its.. good to have someone around...

There he went smiling in pain while saying this...Aurora had no option but to stay quiet since she could hardly move

The man: Here you go... A hot cup of hot chocolate.

Aurora: Wait.. hot chocolate?

The man: Yup and with cookies!

Aurora: All of this is too much, I don't even know how to repay you

The man: repay? nahh..Look I'm just helping a person in need and I'm taking that as a sense of responsibility, not for getting re-payed or something! Here you go, not another word

Aurora had no option but to drink it for the guy who had brought it with such kindness...

While drinking the hot chocolate, with the cup near her lips, the smoke near her eyes, she saw HIM... A fair-skinned yet dark brown eyes, wavy yet straight hair, smile which felt like a warm hug, cheeks like roses.. There he was, a handsome yet beautiful guy

She couldn't take her eyes of him.. It wasn't because of his handsome face but the connection she felt with him, a connection where she felt like she had felt all the warmness she never could. A face she could not remember but could read, a voice she could not recollect but recognize, a warmth she never got but felt. ALL of it.. she never understood but she could always CONNECT...

After she had the drink and the snack, she tried getting up and stand straight, while doing so, she slipped, but again.. a hand held her waist making her bend yet not fall. It was him. AND she held him by his shirt trying not to fall. While holding her, he saw into her eye and she into HIS. They shared the connection of love which had felt like it was hidden in a corner which they could never find. They  stared and stared while holding each other until...until a strong hidden force striked the eye of the guy which made him leave her waist. She fell, He fell. Aurora was in confusion about what had happened and so was HE

The fate of this story continues in a flow where you nor I can comprehend. But the fate of a person, a animal, a creature and even a story has a destiny where you and I can again know nothing about!...
