Her love. Part 2

With her hands tightly clamped over the pen, she started writing the fate's letter.

Dear,
        I have started writing this letter that I am writing to you, with the word 'dear', but I am clueless about the right I have over the word in using it to address you.

But I do feel obliged to do so. Forgive me for my overwrought attitude.

The past few weeks have been exciting as it can ever happen. Life was heavenly and the world started looking beautiful.
When I first met you, I was relieved that your good looks did not excited me. I did not even expect anything to happen. It was not love at first sight.

I did not get to talk with you a lot for quite a few days. But, when I did, I never expected you to be like what you are now. You were and still are the only person to have spoken like that to me. My first impression about you was so bad that I will not want you to know what all went on in that treacherous little mind of mine.
I was a little awkward around you, and didn't know the reason then or even now. Some sweet mystery that was! My first impression was getting changed little by little.

I am not sure nor do I expect you to remember every tiny details. But, I remember it all and I want to say some of it to you. It may or may not be pleasing to hear for you.

I consider myself a girl with independent thoughts and lots of ambition, and I thought I had the guts to stand against the whole world. But you have reduced me to a person who is afraid to let you know my feelings.

By now, you would have well understood my intentions. But I request you to kindly read further as it has taken me some courage to do this.

Just a few weeks back, I was a normal person who snoozes up the alarm at a very dangerous rate. But after having met you, my heart refuses to quite down. Now, I lay awake in the early hours of the morning, staring at the ceiling, waiting for the sun to show its face, so that I no longer have to be in bed.

Sleep was my best companion once, and since I have sought a different one, it has left me. And how did that even happen? I am as clueless as you might be.
And when I was convincing myself over the loss of sleep, hunger left me too. I sit by myself waiting for you to show up.

If I can spend a few moments more with you, I am happy to go without food or sleep. I am that obsessed with you. I also want you to know that I have never been like this before. I have always been slightly egoistical, but now my world revolves around you.

Her Love - Part 1

The moon looked brighter that day. The yellow colour formed a picturesque sight against the dark and the creepy sky. The chillness in the air grazed her gently and she shivered inwardly against the cold. Adding to her earthly worries was the decision she had made.

She adjusted the lamp and the shadow fell on top of the paper which she had placed on the uneven wooden table. She drew the table near to her and a screeching noise echoed through the room disrupting the eerie silence. She shuddered and looked inside her home for any signs of her act having caused a disturbance. But, being blessed sleepers, her family dreamed peacefully and their achievements in the dreams was not disturbed.

She gave a deep sigh and the night seemed to reflect her emotions. The events that had happened to her in the past month had changed her a lot. Though she had tried hard not to do what she had decided to do, her heart was never at peace with the previous decision, and finally, she had to surrender to her soul's ominous looking desire.

She took her fountain pen and opened the cap with obvious anxiety. Her soft hands smoothed out the paper, which looked dull and boring in the gloomy light from the lamp. She had made up her mind to do it then and no power on earth can prevent her from doing it.

With her face oozing with confidence, and her mouth forming a small smile, she got down to her work, and immersed herself in unrealistic realms.
