"I just want you to be a man." Her words dropped like the sound of a saxophone. I couldn't believe if the statement actually came from my aunt or Mrs Jay. On the other hand, I discovered that Mrs Jay was mute. This can only mean she has an idea of what my aunt was saying. "Great the work will be easier now" and I made a quick calculation of eight years from then.
I slowly opened the door like a thief who wants to break in to an apartment. In same manner I shut the door and walked straight to the dinning to get the bulb first. I didn't make any move to fix it. I took a walk inside the room but I didn't find anyone in any of the rooms. I went directly to the kitchen and there I got a big surprise. My first poem was lying close to the sink. I went straight to look at it. It had been printed on an A4 sheet with colourful designs in it. I had forgotten the words which I knew by heart when I first wrote it. With joy I read aloud.
" Fears of love i see
Along the corridors of a blind heart
Searching all and no of me
Great lives lock in one
Power with great respect for none
Love is all I see from all path..."
what am doing? Great question for that state. I ran down to her room which happened to be the third before the master bedroom. I went in and still didn't see her. I leaned behind the door to the bathroom and I almost got myself injured.
I quickly turned to move and my heart began to beat faster than usual. It was Alice! Lifeless is the word to describe what I saw. I made an attempt to carry her but it seemed she had more weight than I thought. I quickly ran out of the building.
To be continued...
