She stayed in the corner of
that house which was dark most of the times. Though surrounded by many known faces,
she lived in constant pain of loneliness. It has been months since she lost her
sweetheart. One day he just vanished leaving no trace at all! They were always
together and had travelled to faraway lands. He ensured that she stayed right
next to him all the time during each such trip.
No one really could console
her since there was no news at all about him. The modern world was mocked at,
for all its advanced technology and communication. None of that could find her
love and bring him back to her. She cried in silence mostly during the nights and
during the day, she’ll sit idle remembering the good old days when they were
together.
Here is the irony of life! Not
too far from where she stays, in a completely messy house, deep down in the
cellar was lying her sweetheart gasping for his breath! He got locked in this dungeon
from where there seems to be no escape. He could hear the wailing from his dear
one but was absolutely overpowered by the mighty forces above him.
When all hopes seem to have
ended, one day he started feeling the pressure on him getting reduced. The forces
that tie him down seem to be getting lighter. With each passing day the chamber
where he was held a captive was getting filled with fresh air and good light.
Finally a day came when he was freed up from the clutches. The first thing he
did was to get a perfect hot water bath. He then got himself dried in the sun which
was denied to him for all these days!
Finally, one of the grey socks
lost deep down in the laundry basket was united with his love who was sitting
all alone in the cupboard for the last few months.
They lived happily ever
after…
