''I looked for you all over and you're sitting here'' Ken said, he was out of breath.
A cool breeze was blowing. She was sitting alone in the shade of a colossal ancient tree. The thoughts that were shaping in her mind were indeed more
profound than the branches of the tree and She was gazing at the blue sky.
He sat close to her and said.
''Is everything okay?'' ''You don't look fine '' He was genuine. ''I am fine'' She answered. And proceeded her look at the sky.
After a few time, He said again.
''Emily…. I am waiting for you to be honest with me because I care''
She turned to look at him, their eyes met, she averted her look abruptly.
''I Do believe that a person can reach their full potential when they have somebody who has faith in them. So, at this moment, you may speak openly. I am ready to listen to what you have got to say because I have my faith in you'' He was telling her. Tears began dribbling from her eyes. She was attempting to hold her cries in but she fizzled.
''I am sorry… I… I didn't mean to overstep my boundaries I truly just wanted to
help'' ''But you don't need to let me know if you don't want to'' He expressed
with a pitiful voice.
He was still sitting beside her, after taking some time Emily uttered.
''My parents decided to get a divorce'' She said, her voice sounded like it was coming from the grave.
''All these years they were forcing themselves to smile and live just for my sake''
''I thought they were happy but they were not'' ''All those memories which I
made with them haunts me'' ''The reality is too bitter for me to move on'' ''The
pain is too much for me to endure alone'' ''I don't know what do to now'' ''I feel
hopeless'' ''These thoughts don't let me sleep or think anything else'' she was
crying and sobbing dreadfully.
''It's like I have found a bird who had harmed its wings. And I need her to mend as
soon as possible. So, she may fly on her own'' Ken thought in his mind and said,
''Let them live a happy life they want, In case they feel they can live cheerfully
without one another it is their choice and they have the right to form it for
themselves'' ''Each and every one of us has to live their own life, so, you should
not compromise your life for them, they will still stay your parents no matter
what''
''And this is the thing that cannot be forgotten'' ''They loved you before and will
love you forever'' ''Nothing can change your relationship with them''
''Let time control the kind of pain that painkillers cannot heal'' ''Time could be an
awesome healer, let it do its work and don't let these realities aggravate your
present'' He was persistently trying to calm her down. He tried to make her feel
that she was not alone and she wasn't.
Emily was feeling calm after so long, she got the answers to all the questions that
were haunting her for the past few days.
