~~I might not be able to see you always, but I do dream about you~~
Third Person POV
Flashback
"Hey stop " , he screamed at the top of his lungs" stop I said".Couldn't make her stop though " Swahayne". This time she stopped and turned around.
"You always tell me there's a war going on", she scoffed "but I can't see anything, happening".
She was four summers old and he was older by three more summers. They were running back from their Gurusthal to wheat fields. She loved standing there and watch the crop plants sway along with the wind. As for him , he loved to watch her dance as he played an instrument similar to flute. With her curled brown hair down she looked like an angel to him. Then as the sun rose higher almost parallel to the ground they walked towards a stream flowing close to the city.
"Chahel when you grow up , can you please stop this war from happening"? she plucked a hibiscus and tucked it on her frizzly hair.
" May be when I am a Paramayu ", he ran to catch up with her.
She was no longer running, as they neared the stream. They sat close to the river bank "Why do you say may be ? " she threw a stone on the stream and saw it flowing down "you are going to be a Paramayu", she spoke with an innocence which he had lost a long time ago.
"I am afraid of the responbilities", he was terrified at times when his father left him with his step mother for a whole summer and winter and returned the next summer.
"I will help you", she turned to look at him, her smiling face with mesmerizing eyes captivated his young mind already. " Only if you promise to trust me".
End of Flashback
Chahel's POV
I don't know how everything happened? I really didn't want to fail you not now , not ever.
"Paramayu ", what is Adrij doing at this hour?
"You may come in".
Once he got in , I told him to close the wooden doors . I really hate people eavesdropping on our conversation.
He sat on one knee and was about to deliver the information, when I asked him to stand and sit beside me on chair. " Adrij, you are my brother and I can't allow so many formalities within my own family".
Adrij let out a weak smile, I know he does it reassure me. But something is seriously wrong .
" It's about her , you were right she has changed and I am not sure if I can bring her back".
His statement left me speechless, my last hope was about to be killed and I can do nothing about it.
But my brother doesn't seem to be totally fazed by the situation" You think you have a way"?
" I do".
I really don't like ending with a cliffhanger, but the story needed it.
If you like it please coment, vote and share. I would also like to mention DinaPrince whose consistent support has made me walk through this journey. She was the person to encourage me and my poor writing. Thanks a lot dear.The video is Perfect by Ed Sheeran . I added that because it's one of my favourite and I thought it would be suitable for the situation.
