I can’t go back now: a handsome lover, distant but too dear

Her shoulder-length brown hair fell as she stood on the balcony waiting for him. He enjoyed the nice summer breeze that blew. The afternoon sun had long since set and the street lights just came on. He seemed quite upset as he pedaled slowly. She noticed that his fair skin was very tanned. He smiled through his eyes; His long sideways glance was enough to weaken her knees. He felt his soul singing. He had left. She was in love with him.

He rarely smiled with his lips, but his captivating eyes intoxicated her with their love. It was a magical evening and he decided to meet her. A little hesitant, but he advanced with quick steps. She was in scarlet smiles between sips of coffee when she saw it coming. He was alone. As he approached his house he looked up at the sky, the silver glow of the moon filling him with dreamy thoughts. She heard a knock and looked into his eyes; her cheeks flushed as she opened the door in the romantic moonlight setting.

He took her hand, held a love note in his palm, and left. She got lost for a while. He always smiled without a curve and fascinated her. The freedom to love is not always tolerated. Love is often cut off before it can blossom. He knew it was a crush and he fell silent. His family was happy as it was time for the wedding knot. Detailed studies of the horoscope were carried out. They were intimidated when the horoscope said the groom would come from the western world. It was a matter of great concern to the conservative family. He checked himself over and over to find the remedies for the best boyfriend and compatibility.

He wanted to spread his wings and fly high, but he kept hitting the golden sides of the cage for the sake of societal norms, conservative traditions, and family happiness. Finally the latest horoscope remedy was announced. He said balancing the west with the east and keeping the null effect would bring the best results, but cautioned that the west’s boyfriend could show up if the nullification weakened. And she married a boyfriend from the eastern countryside with the demographic that worked best.

It was a soft autumn rain, a soft star that shines at night. She adjusted in her life. She did not believe in horoscopes. He realized that Astrology depends on who makes the interpretation and as in any other area of ​​knowledge, there are good and bad interpreters. She is calm and very sneaky as she listens to the sound of her own silence. She is subtle being alone in her fears. As time passes, his fears grow stronger, the fog is so thick that he can barely see. Oh how her western boyfriend haunts her dreams; with a soft voice and a different frame.

His heart beats incessantly reflecting on what remains a mystery. The fragmented images in his mind show him how he struggles with his own despair. He kisses her, whistles a song, and breaks her silence. He steals her soul as he tenderly murmurs words of love in her ears. She is afraid if he shows up and says “I can’t go back now.” A situation that you know, that you cannot handle. Will you accept it when it finally comes? Although her pain needs a warm hug, it builds a wall around her heart. She is chained and trapped in a mystery. Nobody knows, but the smile he wears is empty. Perhaps she is waiting unconsciously and nervously for him.
