He turned his head to me quizzically His bluish eyes gleamed in the ghostly moonlight . The breeze made his wavy hair fall to his face. He brushed them back and raised his eyebrows demanding an answer.
" I just came to tell you sorry. I regret saying unnecessary things . I am really sorry . "I said in a breath and turned away to go.
"Wait " ,he said all of a sudden.
I turned to him and was surprised to see a smile in his face.
Thank God!at least he is smiling.
"So you came here at this hour to say a sorry..??"
"Yes". I nodded . "what else..??"
"It is true that your words punched my heart ",he looked away. "But at least it brought back my sister's memories, after so long time. I was lost in her thoughts for some time...I am sorry ...I made ..you....sleepless.."
I didn't reply , though I knew that he was expecting it from me.
"Go back and sleep, Sarah. It is not too good to be here at this hour."
I wanted to change the subject. "How is it so easy for you to pass this difficult thoughts ...??"
He giggled at my question.
"You regard a situation difficult because you....you ..just 'brain -script' as difficult . Try to take everything easy. It helps to dwell in the present. That's the secret. "
"Since when did you learn to be like this..?"
"Ever since my sister left me. ", he said ,carefully trying not to shake his voice. "She was everything to me.......I wanted to find a way to make myself believe that my life isn't yet over. Each day I tried hard to become someone new... I began to search for thing that brings me happiness..."
He began to walk across the shore and beckoned me to walk with him. The moon shone intensely the vast ocean. Only the stars were watching us and only our shadows followed..
