Her revelation forced Anastsia into a deep internal crisis. Her eyes were went widened up by the shock she felt,There was pain disguised in her gaze.She sat all numb ,Her legs were trembling as she realized,
"The price of truth has reached her.
If she was shown this outcome.
She would never had disobeyed Pope
and continued to live in harmony ...
And the peace she longed for."
She couldn't believe,"The world was not the problem.. Her existence was the probelm to the world who ran on a fake image and proclaimed to be at peace"
She touched her forehead as her vision became blur.She was sweating as cold as ice.It felt as if she would collapse and would never wake up from this endless suffering..
As she was to fall, She felt the arms of someone clinging to her from from the behind .She turned around and saw it was Selena,Her hug was warm which ease Anastia heart.
Anastia hugged back as Selena reassured her,
"It's going to be alright dear..
Everyone goes through difficulties times..
It's normal you just need to realize pain make us what we are today."
After Anastia finally slowed down. Selena took her veil off to show the big scar which was left on her face.She whispered,
"From now on,I shall embrace this ugly mark.
Anastia interrupted her ,
"It's not ugly.That scar enhances your beauty .As you have said our past make us what we are today..
So you should be proud of it Aunt and shall embrace it.
Her words seem to caught the heart of Selena .As it was in years someone finally recognized the pain she endured silently .In the heat of moment , she felt as if she finally found her safe space.
A place where she could feel secure and lean her head without worrying others might say.
Tears seem to stream down from her eyes as she heard those words.She hugged Anastia tight afraid she might slip away and whispered in her ears:
"Make sure you live no matter what happens "
Anastia returned the hug as they both made a silent promise.
"I promise I will live."
They both embraced eachother warm as the moonlit shed the light on their faces.
Somewhere the type writer hidden deep in her house typed,
"Looks like the lost fairy tale had a great end :).
But, the peace is temporary
As the real danger starts now,
Be aware:
"Those who were seen passing the boundary of limitations shall pay the a heed price
for their deeds created by divine law ...
Because the truth is unseen by the world as it injuries a human soul.:)"
The night felt all sacred and holy just like in ancient scriptures.
As they say:
"When two souls are destined to meet,
No one can stop them."
