Yes, I did.
While I was wondering what
to do about the biggest problem of my life which kept me bothering for many a
days, there was a knock from the jib door...!
Unaware of its
existence, skeptically I opened. There he was, cheeky smile on the corners
of lips, expectant eyes of my glaring looks. I wasn't scared but there was an
aura around him that one should be frightened.
Then he came out showing
his intrinsic behavior, made himself at ease, looking into my eyes
with a grin. He wasn't just looking into my eyes but soul and I was shivering
at this thought. I stared at him for a while, waiting him to
speak, gathered all my strength and spoke (exhaustively)
“Who are you ?”
..... (no reply)
“What do you want ?”
..... (no reply)
“What's that, is it a
secret pathway to somewhere ?”
..... (no reply)
“What the hell do you
want from me, what’s so funny uh? Why are you staring at me, you dumbass ...!!”
I was already regretting
my anger by the look on his face, there was a slight movement in his facial
muscles when he spoke
“Touché..! You know me all your life,
I was there for/with you every moment of your life watching your back. I did
help you in all your problems and sorrows and will be. Yes, I am your guardian
angel or whatever you can think of. Now, don’t you act like not knowing me?”
Deep down my heart I know
this and there weren’t any words to meet his eyes
“Don’t fret ! I know
what’s on your mind... I am here because you are not letting me help you. How
many more days will you be running away from me? Why were you so worried? I
reckon, the concern for others making you suffer. They have took you for
granted and you still care for ‘em, why? Don’t agonize over things too much,
leave
‘em behind, you have tormented yourself enough.”
“Yeah! You can say that
but I am no saint and you know that. The people I have taken them for granted
never left me, do you know why they didn’t and why it is that I should be hard
on these. They were always there for me whenever I’m in need. In life, we need
people, you just exist in my mind. It takes time to know who are the real ones
and why are you forcing me to take hasty decisions. For heaven’s sake, I got
the right to live my life as I wish, damn it.”
“Don’t be naïve, I did
never usurp your being. You are important person in their lives and it is the reason
why they never left you. But look at them, how many chances you give them to
prove themselves as the wrong ones, breaking their vows.”
“It’s just that....”
“Nope, this time you are
listening to me. How many times you feel like a sinner and shut me down. I have always tried to
give you the pleasure of living, wanted to see you happy. You left gluttony at
your little sister’s cry, greed at your best friend’s need, envy at the
jealous people around you and you keep your pride. Sometimes you let me in and
make me and you happy and the other times it’s just like this, torture. My
friend! Let me tell you, there is no sin and squalor in this world. Do you hear
me...?”
Those are the last words I
remember and still dwindling in my mind, he induced me like a preacher...
So what do you think I’m
gonna do ?
Yes, I’m gonna get some
coffee.
Don’t worry, I will
conclude...
It is my conscience which decides my life not the zombies or angels. I will do what I feel
correct whether it may be devilish or heavenly. There is no sin
except doing against your conscience.
