CODE RED INTRO: It's a New Dawn, the earth is soiled with blood-red as wine, crow hovering around waiting for the perfect time to act. The suit is tattered today, the shoes do not fit perfectly, the tie has lost its hold, and the white long sleeves are now soiled red. A story will end today, a story filled with flowers birthed with thorns, it's a red day, the code remains red, thrashed but still red. He grunts and looks up to the sky, his eyes are dim and colourless, he knows it's time, he knows the code, he had prepared for this all his life; the revolver in his grip isn't going to do any good, it isn't loaded, he didn't do the needful because he wanted the impossible. He didn't try to pick himself up, instead, he lays facing the sky, bits of her smiles flooded his mind. Her soq isn't, not for him. He found peace, he found solace in the arms of a woman, it was stated the impossible but it happened, it was worth living for, it was worth fighting for. Was this the end for him? he could not tell, but then he wanted it to be, would fate give in and grant him peace? Well, this is the life of anyone who walks the same path he walked. No, this isn't the end, it is the end of the beginning, for greater things would happen beyond the physical eyes. The end says one thing, but the beginning has a promise, now the question is, how did this happen? What's the beginning and what's the end?

-- PROLOGUE "Let me get this straight. We have nothing in between us, except for the deal we made that day" he spoke in a monotonous tone. "I am the one carrying your name behind me; we are married. how can you say we have nothing in between us? Huh" She yelled at him, tears blurred her vision, and she spoke her heart to him. "For god's sake, this marriage was to save you! Can't you get that? I did not do it willingly, I do not love you!!" He yelled back at her, shattering her heart into pieces. "Why can't you just love me?" She spoke, as she cried the tears of hurt, and pain. Her heart thumped loudly due to the shivering sensation She felt all over her body. "I never made a commitment to you, or gave you any false hope, neither did i say that i love you. Did i?" He asked her, in a very cold tone. She looked at him through her teary eyes. It's getting difficult for her to even breathe. "It was your eyes, the damn eyes. Who gave me the false hope. They say, "Eyes speak the truth," but what about mine? Couldn't you feel the sincerity within them, expressing my deep affection for you? Why didn't you see the love shining in them? Was it too complex to understand? Couldn't you notice the warmth as they gazed at you? They search for you in every corner, If only you realized how they silently echoed the emotions I couldn't articulate. They say, "Eyes never deceive." But what about yours? They played a trick on me when they met mine, painting a facade of a world that wasn't real. They made me feel loved, Leading me into a belief that crumbled, louder than your spoken promises. Why did they betray me? Was it your eyes or you that masked the truth?" He stayed still, not moving or saying anything at her statement. --
