Dark Glasses
He feared smokes!!!
They were like evil power coming out of small pots as in the Arabic stories! They pierced his eyes like missiles! His curious eyes turned brick red at the very sight of the smokes.
Why should he fear them???
Ram says "He is not bold enough to face them. He is reserved and is out of reality"!!
Is that true?
"No, says Beena, He likes to have pure air to breath. That is the reason why he get away from them"!
He just had a smile at them and turned back.
Time passed......... he grew older ..... so do smokes....infact, they grew stronger than him. Now a day he was not even able to look at them!
"Poor guy, He should face the reality! He should face them or else he will lose his eyes" advised Ram.
"Not at all, you should change your place of stay, relocate to a new place were you are smoke free"!
He was not able to open his eyes. Tears rolled over his two little eyes!Was he crying? Or else was it because of smoke? Nobody ever asked him!
Survival of the fittest is important! He knows it very well than anyone else. He was not willing to fail in front of these smokes.
He covered his two little eyes with dark glasses! Smokes were no longer able to disturb his eyes!
"He should have done it a little before"whispered Ram.
"Looks better in blue glasses dear", Says Beena
Time does'nt wait for anyone. They step forward.. Now his world had became dark. He saw Ram as a dark demonic fellow. Beena was a dark evil for him. He grew dark roses in his garden. He tasted dark mangoes from shops. He didn know blueor green.
One day he was moving through his dark world. Suddenly he felt a soft touch in his hand!! Who was that?? He looked through his dark glasses. He saw a dark angel through his glasses. She was in a dark gown with dark wings!
"I will guide you further"! Said the dark angel holding his hand softly
He was not strong enough to release his hand from her. She takes him with her through the places which he never knew. They traveled through pure streams and breezy wind day and night. His heart filled with joy. At last they stopped at a garden which was full of greenery! Small breeze slowly patted their cheeks.Cuckoos were singing from the tree tops. She sat with him on the sides of a stream.
She whispered in his ears, "Let us have a new beginning"! Saying this she slowly removed his dark glasses !
He looked at her. She was wearing a white dress with soft wings. She had red strawberry lips and diamond like eyes.Her smile resembled a full moon day! Her skin was soft as an almond!He slowly released his hand from her and spoke in a low voice.
"You are not the girl of my dreams".He put his dark glasses again and walks back!!!
"What happened to him"?? Ram asked
"That is what I am thinking"! Replied Beena
