Red-Haired Beauty
I saw her
She appeared
All of a sudden
First, it was an image
Then I saw her in full height
Her hair, flowing in the wind
Long, red curls
Falling around her shoulders
I thought I was dreaming
But I wasn't.
"Who are you?"
Her voice sounded soft
Like a breeze
Or a slight stream of rain dripping down on the ground
"I am Chechi Nikash. That means, Elder Sister of Horizon."
The response rang in my ears.
But she seemed to have heard it
Something about her was just capturing
Her eyes, that were sparkling like sapphires
Her lips, on which a smile was drawn
"How... How come, I can talk to you?"
I smiled, knowingly, understandingly
"We were connected by the midnight horse.
A connection, that can never be broken.
We will meet in real life.
Quite soon as I hope."
She looked at me
Almost trying to transfix me
To see my inside and thoughts
I went on.
"The tale says,'Two people connected
By the midnight horse
Will have a bond
Stronger than death.
Whether by close friendship
Or embittered fiendship
Will show
When they meet.'
This our fate will be."
She stared at me for a long while
I stared back
The time seemed to stand still
I was lost in the look of her eyes
After an eternity
That had seemed
Like a few seconds
I felt the connection dying
"I will see you"
I whispered
I heard her replying the same
Then we both faded out of the world
Between worlds
And when I woke up
I heard a horse snorting
"Eternal thanks to you
Midnight Horse"
Whispering this
The real world
Appeared before my eyes again.
