STAY

Ascending

She passed many paintings as she ascended to balcony. There were pots of orchids, old man plant, and Fiddle leaf fig, Mahogany railings, the whole balcony was like a fairy topia dream, there were plants of different countries suitable for this climate. Still this beautiful balcony  was presenting a scene of a horror movie. The candle went quite and finally the flame asked leave from the candle, as the raindrops brought doom to the flame. She was crying but no one can see her tears. 

He has came finally to meet her. The Chariot or is it a hanged man she has no idea what is happening in his head. She knew that one day this has to happen but she had made no final script to deliver to him. The king was in front of the queen but the queen doesn't know that what are the king's intentions. The queen was not resilient to stand in his access. Yet the time has taught her lessons that made her ask many questions. These questions, which are full of doubts.

Her head was throbbing with pain, stinging with a mixed state of mind. Her emotions stormed in her mind, her heart was beating like a pigeon stricken by an arrow. The sweat was loosing its identity in rain, the wet swing held her collapsed body. The strong chains held her on swing'seat. Here white silk gown was dripping with water, her brunette curly hair were soaked in water, twisted and tangled together, appearing like black water fall on her white silk gown. The tan golden skin was shining as the water was clearing her tensed emotions. She was not sure why she was feeling like sinking in the ocean. Too tired to process her self, she was feeling like an angel that has completed her life in exile for some deeds of the past. Of coarse this battle was from inside. Real life is not like what see in movies and read in novels. No body completely love or hate any one, there is always a tint of jealousy with love or a part of you still sympathize with the one you hate. 

Emotions lack purity, and the decisions made on basis on emotions always lead you to an endless battle with yourself. She cried,for an hour and her tears stopped. Tears can rest but the mind was too stubborn to let go of things that has occupied her for past years. He was always on her mind but a barrier in mind always stopped her to get close to him. It was not her ego, it was a voice in her heart telling her that if she faces him, she might loose her self in front of him again and this thought was making her resilient to face the reality. The reality was, he never loved her. The reality is he doesn't love her. Life and events have guarded her to fall apart. Her struggle to become independent lead her to a much better life. She can't share with him, so what at least she has this life for herself. The storm came without any warning, and it is about to sweep away all the greatness she has acquired for herself. She has accepted her life as a spinster now, what should she do? To let go of herself to these emotions?

She let told her housekeeper to let him stay at guest room. She was not ready to face him, in the dark night when her sorrow was cruelly laughing at her. No body knows how conscience can damage. The reality of conscience is, it kills you by your moral values. It kills you slowly. You want to hurt someone you hate, but can't because this conscience stops you. I don't want to say this in few words but, sometimes lies are better than truth and sometimes destruction is better than remaining silent. She could have abstain her housekeeper for letting him in. Instead her love took the face of conscience and her was there in her house. The one who has rejected her and the one who was not a part of her life. All of this was true, but in her dream world he was still a living character. It was her mind that played with her. It was her mind which was a culprit. The prince of charm was in her house. It will not take any time to conquer her heart again. Her heart that was already taken, and blasphemed by him.

People assume that demons look ugly. Demons must look beautiful, the charm of demon to beautify every thing around is cunning net that it creates to deceive man. Demons are the most beautiful, powerful creatures on earth, I think demons are not myths, they represent a face of human personality. All of us demons, all of us are angels. To simplify things we are humans, and humans rules the world of darkness and light at once.

Areeb entered the hall way as the housekeeper lead him to the guest room, whole walls were made p of rich colored wood, It appeared it worth millions of dollars. Every part and every piece of this humongous mansion was speaking, glory. Atonement of being in love with him, that was all this glory explains, but Areeb doesn't know how noble hearts work. For him she was a step that he needs to climb the ladder of success. She must have good personal relations in business society. That was all in his mind. If you think he is selfish. You are not thinking on the right direction, Areeb is human, human possess the power of darkness and light both. Who doesn't love money? And when you can easily pick gold, what will you do when someone loves you more than money, have riches of world. Your eyes will give you the display of three dimensional dollar signs in your eyes. 

"Richy Rich", He spoke to him self.
