Not so Girlish tale

Chapter 4

     'Jewelry? Please, no jewelry! Don't you know I hate jewelry?'

Them mood swings.

'Alex, chill'

'There isn't a need to freak out.Do you know what is inside that box yet?' said Joy,'Couldn't you get a better box you dumb ass, Mark.'

'No, problemo?', he said teasingly.

     Mark handed me the jewel studded box. 'Happy birthday, pretty one.' Joy knotted her fingers hoping I'd like, no, love their present.

     I freaked out. I actually did. Bigtime. As soon as I opened the heavily embedded box, I saw something which pleased my eyes like nothing else would. My escape.

ALASKA TREKKING 

'I don't believe what I see!' I hugged them both very tight.  

     Alaska had always fascinated me. Close to nature, close to tranquility. Visiting the laps of nature had always been my unfulfilled dream. My parents knew about this dream of mine. But we never had all the money.But I never complained. They worked very hard day and night. But today, my dream was coming true. our summer break was just 10 days away. And then, Alaska...

'Thanks, you guys. means a lot.'

Joy's POV

     I saw the happiness on her face. I felt immense satisfaction. Her eyes almost watered on seeing that. Her reaction resembled to a queen's reaction on getting new diamonds, just way more priceless. and way more soothing.

    Hearing her voice or her reaction, you couldn't guess she was a girl if you didn't see her.

     She was beautiful. She never realized that. I am fortunate to have her. She could make anybody do anything with those mesmerizing eyes. She was beautiful in her own way. She was infinite. She was eternity.
