IVY.
“I cannot abandon my blood. For it is my identity as a person.”
The sea breeze brushed past me. Dark clouds peeked over the raging ocean. Waves battled to reach the shore, demonstrating the power that nature held. The blues of the nature couldn't battle with the mere patches of green that meekly stood by its shore. The canopy of these weak twiddles sheltered me; which I readily accepted, for, I was Ivy.
The creeper Ivy grows in the darkness. In the shade, it resides, it's where it finds peace at. The shade is its home. And this shade has been mine, knowingly or unknowingly for many years.
The wave splashed fiercely on the rough sandy littoral; a gleaming figure adorned in the fluidity of the very ocean that it was created from. I was Ivy; I did what I was best at. I sunk deeper into the shades, concealing me from the outside; the obvious truth that laid right in front of me.
But how could I stop the eternal flow of nature?
Its loud roar reverberated through the silent lapping of the waves. The power it held vibrated through my nerves as shivers crawled down to my toes. This was the real me; scared, afraid of anything that could uproot me from my pits of comfort. But the omen of curiosity burnt at the base of my throat; of knowing what it is. Like a moth to a flame, I was intrigued even as I cowered in fear.
A gigantic wave sprawled, engulfing the shore in its embrace; just as the figure inched closer. Sockets carved out as hues of blues shaded the depressed areas. The vague outline of a human body materialised.
A gust of wind blew past my frame forming ripples on the smooth expanse of the blues while messing with the granules on the shore; displacing them around and piling them up as dunes. Its soft whistles were dimmed down by the thundering snarl of the sky above. The radiance of the ether was now dominated completely by the notorious dark clouds as they thundered and poured.
Raindrops kissed the ground, drenching me as it penetrated through the pores of the mighty green that sheltered me. A shuttered hum escaped through it as it swung along with the irregular harmony of the nature. I sunk back wanting to hide but nothing could hide me. Not even me as I catch the illuminating blue figure with its arms stretched heavenward. A whirlpool swirled around itself; as it levitated with the force.
In a split of second, before I could apprehend the situation; a heavy splash of water drenched me over and slowly emerged into a whirlpool, uprooting me from my hiding and tossed me into the rippling tides. I gasped for breath; I flailed my arms to reach for the shore or the surface. But I was drowning. Slowly and steadily.
