Surviving The Siege
‘If you feel like you don't fit in the world you inherited, it is because you were born to create a new world!’ --That is Maya’s belief.
Love, fear, and pain are inherent feelings of mankind, these basic emotions which kept the humans under the siege since the creation!!
To be Maya means an unsolved mystery roaming around, to live with a permanent wound, forever susceptible to either the shade of the sky or the pain of her past. ---You cannot forever hide your true face in the shade, it will eventually be caught by the light one day!!
Every decision she makes in life will stem from one of two options: love or fear. This time her inherent fear chooses her to explore itself for the time being!
The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the deadliest one is the fear of the unknown, the consequences!! Fear was her powerful weapon in the past while drawing Rishi towards her clutches, but now she is a chic feared for the presence of a vulture there!
Even the darkest cloud had a silver lining; you can either miss it as you run away to a hiding place or you can go seeking it!
Fear's greatest weapon is its ability to blind one from anything. When it engulfed her, at that tense moment, Maya thought that her heart will explode, her body wanted to either run fast for the safety or to the crate of weaponry, but instead, she remained where she was! She heard him nearing, the same footsteps of her ghastly past. It is just a sound that encapsulated her and she jammed her fist into her mouth to stifle the scream. She shivered, clutched her fingers as if trying to draw courage from those, she realized the beads of sweat trickling down from her brow. Her jaw dropped in a silent scream of horror!! She struck the ground and lay there convulsing and twitching.
With his every step forward, she got more and more terrified. Her breath quickens as she heard the creaking sound of the door. Suddenly everything is silent and behind the door, it is just darkness for her!
This fear is her challenge and her strength to slay, a well-planned ploy on the previous occasion. But today, it engulfed her unannounced and gnarly. The only way out is to order her brain to function,but she opted to remain still, to be quiet enough to choose how to fight! How to fight with her fear, and also how to fight with the ‘cause of that fear!’
Distressed hearts have similar vibrations. A true well-wisher follows you like a shadow!
If his damsel is in fear, he is there, ready to fight a hundred battles.
When he saw Maya panicked under the desk and crying, he offered himself to her... to hug her, to keep her close to his heart!
His touch sent fire through her, she was astonished for this feeling, a tender expression from a rock-solid self-pride!!--
‘ What is this ? Though I try to control myself, this feel is unstoppable!! The false facades are tumbling in front of my yielding heart!! One thing is for sure. My heart is not in my control now. It's telling me that love is not a crime ever!! Its nothing but another name of the blossoming of friendship!’ She was trying to convince herself!
Being in the safe hug of Rudra it was like resting in a floral nest, while a gale raged outside, being in his presence assured her safety, exactly like a rock hugged the shadow!
All the best romances bloom in the midst of a good siege. A justified yielding.
“ Ohh pretty heart …why I feel the way a cloud may feel when touched by the warmth of a morning ray? Why this feel is cheating me so much that this is inevitable and I can't escape from this ?? Trusting someone…. it's like walking with your eyes closed. If I must choose someone in this world to trust, I will choose you as my driving force!"
Every heart has a pain. Only the way of expression is different. Ordinary people hide it in eyes. While extraordinary people hide it in their smile!! They both tried to smile at each other, but that expression was so pale like the shadow of a cloud!
It's easy to tell the difference between right and wrong. What's hard is choosing the wrong that's more right!!
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than the outright exposure-- that's what she decided to explore now!!
