hi everyone...I thought of not giving any OS today due to my busy schedule. But as always, I can't study the whole time right. So I dedicated my free time for writing another OS. You can very well call me crazy for this...Because again I'm up with a Greek legend...I don't know why but I love Greek mythology a lot...Also we usually have the terminology Greek god for Manish. So thought of making another one in this backdrop. I have edited the story a bit in the end so that it fits to our RoSid. Hope you guys will enjoy it...
THE GREEK MYTH- A ROSID OS BY ROSHNI
Roli and Siddhant were in Greece. Greece; you may wonder...Nope, it wasn't their honeymoon destination. But they were there for Sid's official meeting. But since he was married for less than one month that even the mehendi in Roli's palms didn't disappear. and since his pretty wife accompanied him in the trip, it created the mood of a honeymoon on the whole. Most of the time they were out sightseeing and romancing. They were quite young; Roli- 18 and Siddhant- 24. To tell about their early marriage; their traditional family who believes in horoscope and other says it all.But they were quite happy with each other. They flew to U.S after 3 days of marriage. Roli was continuing her studies in the university there and Sid working. Everything concrete and perfect. Then came this trip. Roli is pretty much more excited than Sid because she had read some of those Greek mythologies and not to mention, she believed in them. Sid laughed at this side of his young wife but never bothered to change her belief.
It was a pleasant morning and the couple had only two days more in Greece. Sid's official work was done and so the duo decided to go for an outing. They were out and watched two Greek movies in a line. Nope...they weren't in to the film; but rather in to each other. After a while both were tired and stepped out. Roli was hanging on Sid's right handing cracking lame jokes about her school life. Sid was laughing and that was when they spotted an old woman staring at them. RoSid were surprised for they couldn't trace the reason of her look. Roli left Sid's hand and reached the woman whilst Sid followed her. "Aunty, are you okay?" asked Roli surprised. "Alcyone..." the lady called out adding to Roli's wonder. Wait wait...she had heard this name somewhere. Whilst she pondered in her mind about the name, came the next surprise. The old lady called Sid as Ceyx'. Sid was open mouthed. He hasn't heard any such name in his whole life. He wasn't interested in all those funky mythical stories since childhood. All he loved was some sort of science fiction. As both of them wondered about the situation the lady continued in English with Greek accent, "Thou both gotta come in to ma home...I'll tell thou everything..." Sid wasn't digesting all this. Her conversation was like that difficult novel of Shakespeare which was in his 10std syllabus. Without another word the lady took Roli's hands and started walking through the street. "Roli..." Sid called. "Let us go and see Siddhantji..Please" Roli begged him as if the woman casted a spell on her. Sid followed them silently in amazement.
The trio reached a square stone built little home. The woman opened the door for them and they found their way in. The home was pretty neatly arranged and had no one in it. The woman led them to those sofas in the living room. "I'll come in a minute" she said and disappeared in to the house. "Roli...are you crazy baby? Why did you come here?" Sid yelled at Roli. "Siddhantji...please...let us hear what the lady got to tell us...there's no harm in it." She pleased him through her eyes. Amongst his anger Sid smiled a bit at her. The lady came with a Greek book. Roli was literally jumping seeing the book for it was long since she read a Greek story. "Alcyone..Thou don't wanna know what's in it" the lady asked. Roli nodded while Sid was irritated. "See ma'am...you're mistaken...She isn't Alcyone and I'm not Ceyx. I'm Siddhant and she's Roli- my wife." Sid said in total confusion. The lady smiled and said Sid to relax. She started to say the story of Alcyone and Ceyx.
Alcyone was the daughter of Aeolus, the king of winds. She was blissfully married to Ceyx, the son of Eosphorus, the morning star. They were boundlessly happy in each other's arms. Their married life was a heaven with the strong string of love that held them together. They had a habit of calling each other as Zeus and Hera' funnily when they were alone. It wasn't purposeful but infuriated the King of Gods Zeus. Once, Ceyx was in need of going away from Alcyone to consult an oracle. They parted quite difficultly. When Ceyx was in the sea, Zeus threw a thunderbolt at his ship. He died in the sea wishing toi see his wife again. After the incident Morpheus' the god of dreams disguised as Ceyx appeared to Alcyone as an apparition to tell her his fate. A broken Alcyone rushed to the sea shore and found her man's corpse on the shore. She cried and kissed his face. Then without a second thought she jumped to the sea and killed herself. This influenced the gods very much and they changed the couple in halcyon birds.
The lady stopped. "this is the story that the mass know..But little ones know about the blessing they got to became one again after thousand years. And let ma tell thou, thou both are the reincarnation of Alcyone and Ceyx." Sid was totally pissed off by now. "Roli...Done with your craziness? Shall we move?" he asked Roli who wasn't sitting silently all the while. "I know it will be difficult for thou to believe...But it is truth..."She opened the book and showed them a portrait of Ceyx and Alcyone in Greek attire which resembled them. Roli opened her mouth at this but Sid stood still. "Siddhantji...see..." before she could complete Sid took hold of her hands and stormed out of the house. Strangely the woman didn't follow them. Sid and Roli reached their hotel. "Roli, are you crazy to believe all this myth...The name myth says it all...It is a story dear..." he tried to convince her. "You may be right..."said Roli hugging him.
Much later...It was nearing dawn and Roli was on Sid's chest after a passionate night with him. She was awake and her mind was running through the events of the day. Sid knew Roli was awake and looked at her. "Siddhantji... Is that story true?" She asked innocently. He smiled and said; "May be or may not be Roli, even if it is, we have nothing to do with it. Then...My dear Alcyone...your Ceyx is waiting..." He winked mischievously making her blush... They again forgot the world in each other's arms.
THE END
I know this is my craziness...but couldn't help...plz bear me...anyway Im ready for chappals and tomatoes
