The Dawn Of The Dark
could hear my phone vibrate but I tried to pay less attention to it.I am a very short tempered and extremely over sensitive person. I have a great flow of emotions which is sometimes rather everytime impractical
My mind was again full with these thoughts and it didn’t even take more than five seconds for me to get depressed again.
All these ridicules made me asleep. When I woke up I felt fresh
Anyways, my life was never better than worse.
I thought of checking the time and saw that I got thirty missed calls several text messages from Damon
To be polite enough I texted him back because I’ll have to face him in the office the next day.
“Sorry.. was stuck in something complicated...personal reasons..so couldn’t meet you”
The message was delivered
The next day when I reached office I saw Damon’s cabin empty which implied he was late
Half of the day passed. In the midst of all my works I kept a glance on his cabin which was still empty. Don’t know why but my heart started sinking. Winding up my work, I took my cell phone out of the bag. Thinking much at that time was not so thoughtful. I called him, it rang. He didn’t pick up my call. After reaching home I called him again, he ignored me once more. Before going to sleep I dropped him a message
“It’s urgent..call me soon.”
Damon really took me high, I suffered from sleepless night because I was thinking about him.
He was getting over my soul, my mind. I shouldn’t let that happen
Keeping everything aside for few human minutes I completed my breakfast
That day was same as previous one. It was ‘No Show' again. Without him his cabin was incomplete. I was unable to concentrate on my work and the reason was Damon, his absence.
Days and weeks passed by and Damon’s cabin remained empty just like my heart. He was giving me something worse than a punishment. I had called him recklessly but all in vain. Not a single response from him. It was strange and unintentionally I was getting so attached to him. Don’t know when I had created such a bond with him.
It was new year’s eve.. grand celebration in our office. Several famous faces had visited us that night. Many announcements were made and one such announcement took me by my throat that tore me apart.
The announcement of our new boss Mr. Chris Pattinson. I stood still in silence. It was like a big hole punched through my chest. Crest fallen I remained standing in one corner of the office while the others rushed towards to congrats him. I knew that I have lost Damon forever. I can never find him out even if I had wanted to. I was as still as a statue. I realized what loosing means. I understood how painful my pain was. I should have met him that day. Don’t know how and when I got so emotionally attached to him.
‘How did he become my soul and born creation?’
‘I love him’ whispered my soul into my ears.
Love needs to happen only when it disappears!!?...
My lips started trembling, tears rolled down my cheeks. The world was too far to witness my breakdown.
‘Please come back Damon ‘
I struggled to get my phone... I needed to call him. I looked down at my phone with eyes full of tears, when someone grabbed me by my hand.
“It’s useless.. I am Damon’s sister katherine. You better don’t text him or call him”
“Where’s he...for God sake please tell me..where’s Damon “
“Calm down Cait...calm down!”
“Tell me where’s he...wait what...you know my name?”
“Look Cait.. Damon always remains in his own world.. you can take it as a forewarn..he is not what he seems like.. he told me about you even before you joined the company. Queer isn’t it!?.. there’s a darker side of him that thirsted for you", her face was grave serious.
“Please take my advice...Stay away from him...”,
“No", my voice protested
“ just tell me where’s he...nothing else matters to me...I just want to meet Damon “
“Look I have a responsibility of protecting you", said katherine
“I'll take care of the rest..just tell me where’s he", my tone was fiendish
“He is in volterra.. but you cannot reach him unless he wants you to...”, she said dryly
I was lost in my thoughts on how to reach there. We exchanged looks for few minutes—her eyes still trying to convince me but in vain
“Stay safe", her face was drudge. Saying this she dashed away.
I reached home... first and foremost I needed to know about the place volterra. It was a place where angels fear to trade, in contrast it was a city of love—a walled mountaintop town in the Tuscany region of Italy.
“Slave...”, I was totally nauseous
I was unable to find what I seeked for.
While searching for the tickets my mom made a call. That was enough for me to make myself realize that I had a life apart from Damon.
“Hey mom, wassup...it’s been long..how you doing!?”
While conversing with my mom I booked my tickets to volterra. Tomorrow at 12 noon I’ll be in the city where angels fear to trade.
My eyes sparkled with glory and I had a big unnecessary smile on my face.
“Hello....hellllooooo... Cait are you listening!!?”, my mom screamed
“Ya..mmm....I’m listening “
“How’s life..”, my mom asked anxiously
After taking a long pause of five seconds I said,
“Perfect!..”
My voice sounded more than happy and I knew my mom had already got an idea of what I was upto.
Of course she was my ‘Mom'
“you know what’s good for you dear.. please don’t take any reckless decisions..sleep well baby", her tone was nourished with her blessings and love
“Good night mom...love you", my voice was emotional
I don’t know
