*LIKE A MOTH DRAWN TO FLAME*
((flashback))
Shots of gun ranged on my ears as I dashed upstairs and burst in my room and hid beneath the bed trembling with fear. I could hear the laugh and footsteps approaching my room as I sank deeper under my bed h...
The world is as silent as if it ended in the night. The sun is still resolutely below the horizon and the street is as dark as some old-school black and white movie. As I close my eyes I feel the heady pull of my dreams These are the days I live for. Waking up before five and getting ready while it's still dark outside. I take my bike and ride it along the quiet and barren streets and stop at the pier to watch the sun rise from beneath the sea and make the sky look like it's been blazed with fire. It's not a hobby, it's a ritual and everyday I have to do it for me to get on with my day.
i closed my eyes momentarily and felt soft the wind brush gently through my face.
His eyes were a bottomless pool of darkness, his eyes were so dark I felt like I was looking into a endless stretch of midnight sky..beautiful midnight sky..i sighed.
i wanted to forget him..clear his existence from my memories.i cant. i tried so hard. nowadays every hour is a battle i cant seem to cope up with..This loneliness is a vice on my heart,It kills me every day just a little bit more, taking what was once my inner light and replacing it with a darkness that overshadows each moment.
i opened my eyes to witness the mystical scenario happening..Dawn sent shimmering rays over the placid sea waves.As darkness surrenders, every colour changes from tinges of charcoal to a vibrancy.The sky glows like a summer peach and the sun is pure gold in the sky. i smiled at least there is something that keeps a meaning in my life.

The tiny café huddled despondent among the huge city buildings.The cafe i work at is my refuge, this place I can make believe that I am in a caring society. as i entered the coffee shop, don my boss waved at me and i smiled back at him..i went directly to the kitchen to put on the apron.
don was in his mid 20s and belonged to a extremely wealthy family. he had eyes of pure mischief and a heart of gold; he had that way of moving that honest people do, with the spark of the child and a smile that went all the way through to his core.he had smooth,skin with small freckles sprinkled about like confetti and striking blue eyes.
"guess whos early today?" don teased and i rolled my eyes at him.
"soo..how are you nur?" he asked. i smiled at him "better than ever" i replied."what about you don?"
"fine.. no wait im way better than just fine..actually ive got a great news for you!" he said cheerily.
" and...what is it?"
"patience lady..close you eyes and no peeking i'll be back in a minute"
"you know i hate surprises!"
"wait..you'll love this one" he called back.
"okay now slowly open your eyes!"
"what?" i look blank at him...there was nothing new expect don wavering somethingin his hand.
"i got two tickets to Guggenheim museum Bilbao to attend the once in a blue moon exhibition which is to be held on 21st..this saturday!"
OH MY GOD! Guggenheim museum one of the most beautiful and uniquely designed art gallery!MY ALL TIME FAVORITE!
"what the heck!..you gotta be kidding me"
"no im not" he grinned at me.
"but..how?"
"babe....ive got my connections..pack your bags we flying to Spain.."
i grinned at him.."oh godd Don you are the best!" i hugged him.
