The horizon was dark with an orange line opppsite the moon..the rare orange you see when the sun has taken its sleep and is slowly coming to perform its duty...The silence at this time was horrific but the sound of waves getting higher and dying out was making it more dreadful...The water was ice cold, the sand nearby had footprints only of one person...Someone might have thought of a ghost at this time of a winter night.
The man looked into the water as if trying to find something lost long ago..He was in black dress pant and shirt quite incompatible for this chilly winter that too at the sea side cheamoflaged into the nighty enviroment..What was that man doing at this time of the day when even the animals back off from wandering,resting in their cozy dosses? A question might pop up in any persons mind seeing him.
He was for sure the most handsome man,well built body wearing a branded watch having his cuffs and pants folded,holding a cigar between two fingers. He took a deep breath as if trying to throw something out which have been bothering him for so long.He moved his hand took a deep puff of cigar doing this he heard somewhere nearby "I hate men who smoke...like OMG why would a sane man do something like slow poisoning...disgusting" that face she made at the end forced him to smile even now,he looked arround smiling to find her but ended up looking into darkness,a bit lightened by moonlight.He threw the cigar on the ground and crushed it under his feet,how could he disagree with her.
He looked up grievious,eyes a little wet,lips wearing a warm smile,everything contraindicating his inner feelings.He stopped for a while,one hand in his pocket and the other one he tried to set his grey hair but it was actually more of a struggle to calm himself.He has been here since 9 O Clock and now it was half past three.He looked into the dial of his clock and headed towards his Mercedes...
Nights have been the same since years and he had been the same cold numb man too.His green eyes were always seen empty and face as if plastered: expressionless. His subordinates had named him stoneman and he really was,feelingless,stubborn and wild,never seen even smile.
He drove towards home,the mansion he had been living,unique of its own nature,a drive way leading to garage,a bigger one already having 4 branded cars parked,on one side a track leading to the entrance of house a gaint ancient wooden door,inside of which was a different world,thick red valvet curtains covering huge windows,antique furniture with interior taking to another level of beauty,everything looked vintage.Passerby's usually thought in an awe the happiness and luck of resindents.
He entered his room well decorated walls greenish blue and offwhite what a sobber room it was spacious and grand,the whitish yellow lightining made it even more dramatic.He took off his watch placed it on the dressing table moved to his bed,sat in a way as if sitting after loosing everything,he sighed,let himself free,fell on the bed half sitting,his face looking up the royal roof of his room suddenly two drops rolled down his zygomatic region running over the temporal side got lost in his grey hair,his lips murmured "Hun why",even with everything arround,there was emptiness sorrounding,walls looked grievious,the home was big but lacked laughters,the paintings were beautiful but everything looked mourning over something.
The night was almost over but he remained there lying wretching over that wound his heart had been bleeding lately.His nights were the same long,lonely,sad,heavy and insomniac.He got up poured some water from bottle in a covered glass,opened the drawer,took the bottle out,the pain inside begged 'eat them all please i cannot take it any longer' but he had to live,live until he'd take that chandelier of "Hun&Mike" to the mountain and leave.He took out 2 pills "hey buddy" he said and ate them.
He had been taking these pills since long,to make him a little happy taking him to the dream wonderland where he would live the impossible,where he would laugh.He took off his shoes and socks,got into the bed,turned off the light and waited until the dose started its effect a few moments later it was all calm.......
