ABCD Drabble OS by Nxt_rockstar

She ran towards the tower stairs with the firelight. Her tramping could be heard in the long corridors of abbey. While catching her breath, she covered her face with shawl before opening the door of tower. Before daylight could disappear completely from the sky, she kindled the flame.

There was something different this evening. She could see a fire torch spreading golden light on a tent. At the end of icy lake, there was a tent near the woods. Her vision got foggy as soon as a flurry of snow approached the abbey.

"Kria, You must not make tramping noise next time you are late to ignify the flame." Priest told her after prayer. She was embarrassed.

It was consecutive 3rd day when she was seeing the torch from the tower. Her eyes searched for the person residing in that tent. She stayed a little longer to satisfy her curiosity.

And she saw a contour walking near the tent. It was a man, stout and muscular. She rushed back to abbey when that contour stopped walking and started looking at her.

Entire night, restlessness and a warm fuzzy feeling irritated her.

"He must be some war hero or knight or maybe a traitor or enemy", she closed her eyes tightly with the thought.

While opening the door of tower next evening, she kept her eyes down intentionally. Heartbeats went crazily fast when she saw that contour watching her. She secretly wanted that. All she wanted was to see his face once. She wanted him to walk near the torch light so she can see his face.

He wanted exactly the same. He noticed her every day. He could see her in light of flame but her face, she never let shawl slip from it. Curiosity to see the face was challenging him to walk in the abbey. It was tormenting. Reyansh, his name was taken in great knights of the era. He couldn't even understand importance of that flame in these 5 days.

Longing was building in his stone heart. He eventually tried to match that contour with many faces coming out of that abbey but all in vain.

Again her tramping disturbed the priest next evening. She wasn't even late. There was no torch today. Sheer darkness and no movement around the tent, she found herself in immense pain which was totally unjustifiable.

She ran down the tower with the firelight. Abbey gates couldn't remind her of obligations and she broke every rule.

While running on frozen lake, strong flurries took her shawl away. He could see someone coming. Long hair and lean body, finally he found the match of that contour in her. He left his luggage down and walked towards her. She stopped few inches away from him. The firelight was clearly showing his face. She found her lost breath and peace. He looked at the tower, there was no flame tonight. But He could find the flame in her eyes. Two flames ignified!
