It was 7:00 in the evening.
His
agreement with her to constantly plays mind game to help her develop her mind
has ended up in a quite severe mental disorder where she develop several
defective personality in her self.
She ran outside with a
knife in her hand. Stopping just 2 feet away from the edge of the cliff. Breathing
heavily with her eyes locked on him.
He was walking slowly
towards her, not to make any sudden movement, not to startled her. And then he
talked to her to try to calm her down.
“darling, please, you need some help from the
professional. I promise i’ll visit you everyday, i’ll bring you flowers.”
“NO! YOU JUST WANT TO LOCK ME AWAY! BECAUSE YOU DON’T
LOVE ME ANYMORE!”
“no, please, i always...”
Haven't
finished his talk, she rushed to him screaming like a murderous lunatic with
her knife ready to do any harm to him. She threw her knife at him but it didn’t
hit him.
He bowed
down to take the knife from the ground. He was getting back up with the knife
pointing upward in his hand. She tripped over and fell. She fell to the knife
and got stabbed on her own body.
They
both frozen from any movement. Both because of the pain that just struck them. One
on the physical body from the knife that got stabbed to her. One on the heart
knowing that he would lose her to his own hand, but not because of him, but
might be her best way out from her insanity.
As she
slowly fade away, laying on the grass with her head on his lap with him sitting
down slumped. He didn’t know what to do while his love was unable to speak any
words from he blood-flooded throat. They could only look to each other’s eyes.
One is looking up sad seeing the one she loved crying. One is looking down
devastated witnessing the last moment of the oen he loved.
As her
eyes started closing not to open again. He said his last words to her.
“i love you...”
And
the sky that night started raining heavily with thunder storm.
It was 5:00 in the morning.
She
ran outside to the backyard towards the cliff’s end. Stopping just 4 feet away
from the edge of the cliff. She closed the eyes, spread his arms wide, and
breathed in the morning air. She just invited a smile to her face. And then she
relaxed her arms down and stare into ocean ahead of her, watching the sun climb
up slowly to it’s place on the horizon.
He made
his way to the back porch, to find her outside enjoying the morning. He walked
him self towards her. Standing beside her while staring at the ocean, he talked
calmly to her.
“you forgot your hijab.”
“...but, honey, we are married now!”
“i just don’t want your dad step any closer to hell.”
He was still staring to
the ocean. Then she looked at him, putted on a sulky face and walked grumpily
back to their white wooden cottage that was not very far behind them. She entered
the cottage through the back door, walked inside where the green interior paint
was slowly shined upon by the light of the rising sun far on the horizon.
She walked to the
kitchen table, and took the hijab cloth she didn’t get to wear, worked it
around his face and walked back outside. After she get to him, she talked
grumpily to him.
“you happy now?!”
He turned him self to her, took her by the hand and
said
“you’re as beautiful as the day that i met you.”
And then kissed her forehead.
She
looked down and smiled and giggled. They turn their sight back to the sunrise
and spent their morning holding hands gazing at the horizon without a word
said.
It was 8:00 in the evening.
It was
raining heavily that night. It was so dark, the only light is available is from the thunder, the porch
light far on the cottage, and the police car sirene light in front of the
cottage.
He was
standing just a feet away from the edge of the cliff. He snapped out of his
mind and tried to assault her with a knife after they fight about her being too
busy not having time for him. And now he is holding her as a hostage with a
knife.
The police, that came
from the neighbor’s call to them because they heard screaming, was approaching
slowly to him. One is getting closer with his hand readied on his gun holster. The
other one is further behind trying to be calm on that situation.
“Stand back! Or i’ll hurt her!”
“Sir, please calm down, we are trying to help you...”
He was
too focused to the police. She gathered all her courage and slipped out of his
strangle. She slipped away and pushed him back.
He can’t
make a stand on the ground for it was too slippery from the rain. He fell down
off the cliff to the bottom of it where formation of rocks awaited to sweep his
body away to the ocean with the waves.
She
screamed and cried as she realized that she just lost her loved one. The police
restrained her so she didn’t do anything harmful to her self and tried to calm
her down.
The
rain stopped falling. Leaving her weep and the sound of the waves below as the
sound of the night.
It was 6:00 in the morning.
The
sun just rose on the far east horizon. Shinning upon the green grassed cliff
with a small white cottage near it’s edge.
She
slammed the back door open and ran crying to the edge of the cliff. She stopped
just 3 feet away from the edge. Gazed to the ocean with tears streaming down
her face. Wetting her eyelashes and cheeks.
He followed
her not long after. He grabbed her upfront and stared deep into her eyes. His eyes
were shallow like a moron. But his words were deeper than the ocean behind him.
“your eyes are just as beautiful as the day we met,
deeper than the ocean you just stared into. That's why i fell for you everytime
i look into your eyes. That's why you will always got me.”
Her
cry worsen as she heard his words. She hugged him tightly. Her tears dampen his
shoulder.
He just
hugged her and let her cry until she stopped by her self. And she stopped crying
for finally she realized that he got him.
