gift of love


Swimming in the wild sea he heard a scream, a cry for help. there was a girl who was fighting not to drown. He understood that she really needed his help and will drown if left alone. but he didnt do it. he swam in the opposite direction, but her cry was haunting him.he changed his direction and went to her. he could see the wreck of a boat and helped her to lie down over a wooden plank and told her " i am sure someone will rescue you soon" and turned away. she was asking for his help, but he didnt gave a ear to it.

while cruising in the water his memories gave him company. few years back when he was swiming in the same sea another girls scream has changed his direction. he was happy to help the girl, Jia. with everything against them he took her on his shoulder and swam to the direction of the island he could see. It was too far and in between she told her story, how her boat was wrecked and how everybody escaped without helping her. he was moved and told that he will be there whenever she wants and however she wants. in the wild sea with his company she thought that he was her world and no one could love her more than him. he thought that it was JIA who he was missing all these years.

she said to him that she has never seen such a person and that she will be with him forever, he told her that island is our destination and you can see somany new things there ,even her loved ones who escaped without her and that she will find her man there. she said " no one can ever love me like you and no one can take care of me like you. i want to be with you and no one can make us apart".

he was in heaven. he couldnt believe her. swimming in that worst condition with her on shoulders didnt even bothered him. he was cruising like a happy fish. they ate together, laughed together and dreamed together and didnt know how they reached the island . people welcomed them and praised the man for his bravery and care.

all this was shortlived. jugglers, magicians and story tellers wanted to impress her, he could see that she couldnt resist everything and she wanted colour in life, more colours than he could give her. HIS love was intrepreted as a lock. she felt that even if he was not there she would have reached the island. Silence filled their days, distance between their hearts increased. one by one she started to take back the freedom he had on her. she was telling that she love him, but he couldnt see it in her eyes.
he tried the best to bring back the magic between them. she also tried, they couldnt part.it seems that miracle was happening. she was being his once again.

but god has different plans. the man came, the man who escaped from the boat. the man who couldnt even look at her when she was drowning, when she was yelling for help. slowly she was attaracted to him once again. she coudnt stop her self. past became insignificant. ...........................

now he is swimming back..back to the wild sea...he said to the sea " i belong to you mother, take me"..... far away the girl on the wooden plank was yelling, this time not for help, but for him. but he didnt go back.

Critically evaluating, i think little more justice is to be done in describing the emotions of the person. Since this is an emotional kind of story i think it should rather disturb or haunt the reader. Overall it was very sensitive...
