2. fallen angel...

Scene - 4....

A rabbit hopping playfully in a yard. Garden full of reminiscent flowers. He hit himself to the bucket.. it's cause of his incautious behaviour making bucket to fall and creating a loud sound.

Moon clenching her eyes tightly... opening her eyes she finds herself in an obscure surrounding. An old lady in front of her holding a new born.

"It's a girl..." - her wrinkled face full of different emotions she replied straight looking through moon.

Turning back moon noticed a lady covered in blanket laying on the ground. Bringing up her head in curiosity and affection...moon saw a gleaming face in filtered sunrays showing shimmer of live in her eyes. Extending her hands "moon come here my dear..." - she called out looking moon's eyes.

"M-mumma !..." - moon cried her voice never came clear.

Tears flowing down her eyes..."look you're brother was waiting for you..."

Moon shifted her gaze toward a young boy sitting next to her mother.

Coming closer to them, in next moment she saw a man's back leaving towards the edge, walking down from hill. Moon running behind him shouting - "wait...s-stop... please..."

Reaching the cliff her body felt weak and she fell on her knees... crying her vision is not clear looking at that fading figure she cried out last time..."father please don't leave me...."

"Please don't leave us..." Moon heard the voice next to her crying out loudly. Closely looking she realised it's her mother holding her belly in pain. A young boy crying holding her from falling..."don't cry momm..."

Opening her eyes she is sweating all over... standing straight on her bed..."the same bad dream" - she sighed.

"Moon wake up darling..."

These are the only words which gave her comfort even in her hardest part of her life.

Going near to her mother whose now have been aged. wrinkles have been appeared on her lovely spotless face but beauty never left her. Her kindness and love blaming in her eyes.

"Today you're going early to your work..." - her mother spoke slowly smiling. "Come hear dear..."

Wrapping a scarf around moon...

"Mom... it's already spring..." - moon whinned.

Chuckling her mother said..."I know...but I don't want you to catch cold.... you're such a fragile lady"

"Here...look I'm knitting a new scarf for you..." - she showed moon her half done work.

"Umm...I know you care too much..." - moon nodded in agreement.

Hugging her she walked outside the field. Leaving her mother alone...whose waving her hand untill moon faded into the edge of field.

Her eyes stuck on a nursery of flowers. Last year it was not here. "People indeed are living peacefully now..." - moon chuckled to thinking.

It's been years since dispute and destruction is laying in peace. World has changed, people has changed but for her many things are same sill in the past.

"There is nothing...no reply of my email not a slight clue about anything..." - she annoyingly murmured to herself.

In evening coming back to her home she bought a flower pot with her. In home sitting, listening to radio laughing together.

Scene - 5.....

A butterfly came flying by and set on a hand...on that trembling and wrinkled hand which belongs to an old lady sitting on a chair, her hair, white snowy layers... gazing sky with her beautiful hazal eyes.

Her lips curved in a beautiful smile she called out - "moon...wake up darling..."

Coming out of door..."I'll make you breakfast..." - moon replied sliding into kitchen.

"Today I'll come early in afternoon... okey..." -moon assured her.

"You left your job years ago !...it is because of me... isn't it...did I bound you here..." - her mother cried.

"N-no mom Don't say that..."- moon uttered with dry throat.

"Am I burden...to you...will you leave me..."- her mother cried while sobbing.

"No never..." Holding her mother's hands in hers, stroking her cheeks with affection..."when I needed you....you was always there for me...so why can't I...mom...why can't I..."

Embracing her in a warm hug she wrapped a blanket around her mother. Bending over her knees her mother put on a scarf around moon's neck like always.

Kissing on her cheeks she left her with rays of faith, she will later embrace her and will sing a lullaby.

But this time moon is anxious while leaving her house. After every minute she is turning back to look at her mother untill she reached outskirts.

It's now afternoon, time has passed slowly for her since morning. But her emotions are overflowing... Standing infront of a small cyber shop, she encouraged herself to go in..."this will be the last time I'll come here!..." - moon whispered to herself.

Bringing up his head up from a computer, shopkeeper glanced smilingly. In age he looks younger then her..."Welcome moon...I was waiting for you...and how's your mother..." - he remarked getting up from his seat.

Moon smiled little... thinking now we have few more people who care for us...."she is fine...but I'm afraid that she'll never stop knitting a scarf for me..." - moon replied chuckling.

"Is that so...." - he laughed.

She walked out of shop with heavy heart... thinking - "this is hopeless now...there is nothing I can do..."

Previously...

"..you come all the way along from your home to find there is no reply for your email...is it that important to you..." - he asked in confusion.

With tearful of eyes she stood there in silence.

"Is there something I can do for you..." - he said encouraging her.

Her gleaming tearful eyes watched him with smile. "if...o-one day someone will come asking our address show him the path of our house...will you!..."

"Y-yess...I will..." - his dry thorat uttered.

Her steps are hasty...there is this unknown vague feeling rising within her soul...she is trembling in fear...fear of unknown...

"...I wonder what is she doing , maybe knitting a scarf again for me..." - she muttered smiling.

"This is the first day I didn't bought anything for mom..." - sighed she looked her house from the edge.

Field covered in fog... petrichore and sweet fragrance is still surrounding the area. Her eyes fell on a fragile figure walking toward her...draped in long blanket...her body is shining from the rays filtered through giant clouds...beaming beautiful face...she is coming closer to moon.

"M-momm.!.." - moon froze in her spot.

"Moon...my precious gift is you...all I want is you...my dear..." - faint voice...moon heard shivering in fear...

Checking her surrounding, there is no one except her in middle of field...she widened her eyes...she rapidly runned toward the house.
