Chapter 33

Amidst the Woods and the Burning Star

Have you ever fallen in love, for the very first time in your whole life ? What was it like ? Did your heart race ? Did you feel like there’s no better thing than that very moment which you’ve spent with your Love ? That feeling was beautiful right ? Beautiful like an early morning sun.

And What is Love ? Is it a feeling ? or rather is it more than that ?

What does Love mean to you ? And what do you mean to Love ?

The sky is immersed in red by the rising sun spreading his mighty arms; while silence enveloped the atmosphere except for the streams of water in the river flowing gracefully and the birds chirping melodiously. Last night we camped here at the riverside, the water looked like a bed of crystal petals as the morning sun glistened upon them. Stacy was already up, with the glowing sun kissing her wet face, the tiny water droplets escaping her face looked as though pearls tinkling down. I still couldn’t believe what happened last night. Richard proposed Stacy; I was in an utter shock and so was Julie. ( I mean I don’t say we were “shocked” exactly, but you know, i was in a kind of um … surprised I guess).

From the time I knew Stacy, many people tried getting close to her (by that you know what I mean). But she would fall for none. Whenever I asked her why she didn’t accept any of those proposals, she used to say that she was looking for the right one. I used to tease her that she will remain single for life. But i guess i was wrong.

Perhaps that’s why love is compared with magic, we don’t need to understand how it happens; all you have to do is accept it, the way it is­ - Magical and soul-filling.

Whenever she is with Richard, she became like a child, a child who got her most loved toy, with a child-like face and curious eyes, she would admire him, his words, his charm and above all his smile. She would be engrossed in it, and to be honest there weren’t any words between them, from the time they knew each other (yes I agree they talked, but it felt…casual). But I believe love, isn’t just about how much you talk, or how much you praise and admire each other, but it’s something much greater than that, something marvellous and something worthy.

“I couldn’t believe it, Kevin. That’s a cool surprise” Julie said as we prepared the coffee.

“It was more like a shock than a surprise. Stacy was like born-to-be-single kind of girl,” I said.

“Yeah, true-love is a surprise though,” Julie said, stirring the black coffee her eyes glancing towards me.

“What was more shocking is; Stacy accepting. It’s like the unexpected happening” i said.

“What has shocked you?” Stacy asked walking towards us, drying her wet face; she looked attractive, with her wet lips parting slowly as she spilled each and every word, and her eyes twinkling with a spark.
