Wednesday, April 08, 2009 PART ONE "You must be crazy" she says. "No I'm not." he replies quietly. "Then why do it? Nobody with half the brains of a pea would've did that!" "Well if peas had a semblance of a brain,they wouldnt stay one. They would MOVE ON,they would not want to muddle around all greenhorned,small,and clueless. Its time I move on too,unstick myself from the whirlpool of emotional confusion and soar over it on eagle's wings." Muttering softly,she complains,"Your ang-moh,I don't understand. Always liddat... Your decision,also macam Trigonometry in Literature , no link. "
Sighing,X walks towards the field of grass as the rustles of fallen leaves accompany his slow shuffling feet. Easing down onto a patch of green,he leans back to look up into the twinkling night sky,the same sky where they used to gaze upon in temporary contentment. A time when everything else seemed so far away,so unreal....... Soft hissing sounds and a plonk sound to his right indicated Chloe joining him on his grassy refuge,drawing him back to reality. Crossing her arms and feet, Chloe wonders, "Ever wondered where those stars came from? So small......yet so much bigger than me... We can't always see them yet there they are,sorta hanging...shining." "Ummmm......." "Or how they twinkle? Not like those satellites,you can always tell them apart,all artificial and no twinkle? Its the numerous,uncountable bright dots in a dark sky winking down at us that makes it just so drawing." "Yeah......." "Its too bad we're always so busy to see them,despite their appearance everynight. You know we're really too busy for our own good.

"how we people rumble on all important and mighty,with things to do,inventories to take,deadlines ot meet. Just like ants! Only with a capability to appreciate beauty but no capacity to. Its just....." "Chloe please......" nuts! Just like your decision? I mean,just because of work you're giving up? C'mon! You're better than that!" Where's the......" "I really like not to talk about that now,please. Just....stop talking for awhile." X interrupts firmly. To which Chloe complains, "Whoa! no need to go all Mr Grumpy on me."
X exhales and closes his eyes as his head continue to throb with the many voices in his head yelling,pleading and crying out to him. Silence surrounds the two of them as they sat on the grassy expanse under a blanket of twinkling stars. The calm waters of the lake just beyond the border of the field of green rippled as a soft,cool breeze picked up across and caressed their exposed arms. To Be Continued.... |
