Before starting, I want to introduce you to the protagonist of my stories-"Lord". He is not a God or any mystical being. He is a human, like you and me, who was named 'Lord' by his parents. The same case is with Faith (she can be called devotion, if you like).
It was at the beginning of time the way I recall it, but for you it was the 4th of April 2007. It was the first day of Lord's new school (yes he is a kid, who is yet to grow). He was of course somewhat terrified of his new environment, but he wanted to make friends for he had none. For his benefit, his pupils were quite frank and friendly which he noticed. And while looking for his friends, Lord saw Faith for the first time. Faith was a bold and cheerful girl. I can bet for my life she is still right now, but she has changed her way to show her traits.
Faith, as I remember, had very short hair that couldn't reach her neck. She was slim and her skin was as white as snow. But these traits didn't made lord notice her. There was some aura that made lord look at her, a charm that was growing with her age. The second time Lord looked at her, it was quite a few years later, but that time Lord felt love for the very first time.
What had happened in these years, quite frankly I don't remember and I think that Lord might not be knowing too. It was all of a sudden, just a THUD!!
Well it could be the magic of adolescence, when emotions tend to develop inside us. Many say that love and attraction are two different things. Attraction is felt by us every time and it can be with anybody. But love happens very seldom. It is born from attraction, that is true, but not every attraction converts to love. It takes a hell lot of time.
Faith was not the first attraction of Lord, there were many before her and they go way back to kindergarten! Of course a child cannot understand the abstract concept of love, even if he/she tries to pretend to be in it. Love happens in very unexpected times and due to very unexpected ways.
The catalyst that made Lord feel sudden bursts of emotion for the first time was when he just did a very little thing. Quite unexpectedly, and only God knows how or why, Lord looked at Faith's eyes (her long hairs are to be blamed too!)
Eyes never lie. They are the reflection of one's true self, their soul. It is also true that eyes are deceptive, but for the first and last time, Lord was good with his luck. After that, Faith became his secret crush.
Lord had a weakness, and that is called shyness. He is still shy but now he has learnt to hide it. It was during a weekly test that Lord had conversation with Faith for the first time. They were quite far apart in the class. Lord was concentrated on his paper but his focus broke when he heard his name in a sweet voice.
Faith had called her, she wanted some help in the test. It was not that she was dumb and wanted to use him; she could score very well on her own, but I think she just needed an excuse to talk to him. This started a trail of secret hand gestures, sometimes silly, in order to communicate throughout the tests. Believe me, it was the first time they had a conversation.
The spark between both of them was quite obvious to everybody in the class. Within a matter of a year, Lord and Faith became the hot topic of the class. With each and every step they would make for their individual affairs, their friends would connect them to each other. They had become a couple in the eyes of the students, although in reality they never even had talked properly to each other. Irony died a slow death....
In 10th class, the things were at their peak. Faith had initiated getting closer to Lord, which they both liked. Lord from the depths of his heart loved Faith. I don't know about the feelings of Faith, but she used to sprinkle joy and love from her smile and eyes respectively on Lord.
Alas! Even at their peak, Lord couldn't express himself to Faith, and I am glad he didn't because the end was coming. And by the end, I mean the end of 10th class, when we have to choose our stream or shall I say the "path of our life"
To all the lovers parted due to their streams, Lord & Faith were no different. Boards had ended and the vacations were going on. Lord was filled with gloom to be parted from the one whose face was a sight for sore eyes, even though they never were in a relationship.
Lord was surfing through our one and only friend- Facebook, looking at the chat heads. Faith was online. To my surprise, Lord had never initiated an online chat with Faith. He was just staring at her chathead and regretting that he never even talked to her.
People say life always gives us a second chance, and Lord witnessed it. While he was busy crying and swearing himself, he suddenly heard a bling! He saw at the chat and bursted with happiness for Faith had messaged her. Lord grabbed this opportunity and started a conversation with her. ❤️❤️
When we chat with somebody, online or text, we are in our true self. That night Lord opened up about his closeness to Faith. He kept on talking about her traits that he loved- her tomboyish attitude, her smile and her eyes.
I think Lord lost himself as he was angry on himself for never talking to Faith. And Faith's initiation of the conversation proved that she was feeling something for Lord too.
This conversation between them lasted not more than 3-4 months. It is the universal truth that the value of anything decreases once we have it.ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ŸðŸ˜Ÿ
The burst of emotions that they both felt started to fade away. Lord felt that his love was only one-sided. If reality is a person then she is very sadistic.😢😢
I don't know what happened. It was quite spontaneous. I think due to their different streams, they had nothing left to share. They had become quite busy in their own spheres of life that even online chats couldn't fix.
Faith had become silent and this was impacting Lord negatively. He had separated himself from the world. You may say he went to oblivion. There was no one who could reach out to Lord to bring him to his senses.
This time too reality played its part. It showed Lord that he was just harming himself and his family. He was shown that Faith had already drifted away and was doing quite well.
It was time that he should play his act in this world because " All the world's a stage and all men and women merely players"
After crying out a whole night, Lord came to his senses. He took a metaphorical knife🔪 and carved out his heart ❤️ and crushed it into pieces. This time pain had demanded to be felt.💔💔💔
After this incident Lord had vowed never to love again 💔😟😢, but someone was coming to challenge his vow.... He was about to be struck by lightning 🌩️⚡⚡
