The Girl And The Knight (Chapter 4)

Chapter 4

She took off in the knight’s steed to the same lake of dark, murky and shallow waters, where the knight had found her, as she dismounted the horse, she looked in the murky waters and saw a black reflection rising from the waters, the air felt cold, and the mist felt like frost, she knew who was in the water, the one she was promised to meet someday, The angel of Death.  Death smiled at the girl and said; “Ahh, we finally shall meet as I promised…” “I am Death, and I have come to collect you, it is the time”.  The girl, just stared at the dark figure and saw that he had offered her his hand.  The girl took his hand without question and said; “All I cared was for my Knight, and now he is gone, so I have no more reason to be alive, I don’t care for nothing anymore, I can’t live in a world where he doesn't exist; I don’t want to live anymore without him, so please Angel of Death, be merciful to me this time, and take thy life away from me”.  Death replied to the girl; “That is why I have come, let us dance together, to the underworld”

Two years had passed and still the knight did not return, and she stopped receiving letters from the knight; she wrote every day, waiting… 

One day she received a letter, and she opened it with a great big smile, it was a letter from the Captain to inform her that the knight had died in battle… 

She crouched in pain, and another letter fell from the envelope, she took it and as she opened it she recognized the knight handwriting, it said. “My dear friend, I write this letter because I can’t shut this feeling no more from my heart, I love thee, with all thy heart, I have loved thou ever moment since the day I had in deed rescued thee from the deep shallow waters, I knew that thou would be the one to fill the hole in thy chest, the one who’ll will indeed bring happiness and love and joy to thy life” Please wait for thy return, so I can wed such a wonderful woman, I will love thee, forever”.  

The ripping apart pain the girl felt in her heart was the worst pain she thought she could feel, she screamed and cried, but the worst part, she knew it was her fault, she should had confess her feelings since the first day…

But the girl, find out that in her heart, she had stronger feelings for the noble knight, she had fallen in love with him.  But because of the fear she might lose the knight, she kept it silent in her heart, and promise never to outer her feelings.  For each day and night the feeling grew stronger in the heart of the girl, she learn how to smile when she was sad, she learn how to laugh when she wanted to scream and cry… 

Every night the girl cried in her bed to sleep, and every morning she woke up with a smile in her face filled with pain, for her heart, all she wanted was to confess to her knight, how much she loved him… But, she was glad to have him by her side that she thought, “It doesn’t matter, I have him by my side and I can live with that”.  So she washed her face, and went to see the knight for breakfast, but instead to finding the knight, she found a letter, which said: “I have been called to war, I leave you my friend, my castle please watch over it,  I will be back soon, I have something to say to thee.  The girl started to cry, all day and night, she went to his room and cried over his pillows, having the scent of the aroma of his presence made her feel better, she slept there every night, praying for his safe return.

Every week she received a letter from the knight, and she wrote back every single one of them, still not revealing her for the knight, she promised that when he returned she would indeed confess her love for him.

The Girl and The Knight (Chapter 1)

Chapter 1

There was once this girl, who had a dream..., a dream that kept her alive, when she thought she shouldn't be alive at all... The girl was so heartbroken that she thought death was merciful... so she look into the eyes of the person who wounded her so deeply in her heart, and with a mighty thrust she cut her wrists open, and with tears she waited for her death to be merciful with her...


But death never came, instead, death smiled at her and said. "It is not time yet, my darling, and this is not the way you and I are going to meet"...


So after a few days, she went for a swim in a deep dark murky waters, until she started to drown, and as she kick in the water, she saw that there was no use to fight against the impossible, so she gave up, right in the end... Until... she looked up above the water, she saw a glowing light, a hand reach for her and she took it, but she was so weak, that the knight had to carry her out of the murky waters, as he laid her in the ground, she looked into his eyes, and there in his eyes she saw something she has never seen... Hope... Hope to live, hope to love, and hope to be happy... So the knight looked into her eyes too and said. "Why did you give up swimming?" "What if I was very far and couldn't hear you scream?" "You could have died" And the girl answered... "I knew you were looking for me, as I was looking for you; but I was so afraid, to go on without you, that I didn't want to live in a world where you don't exist"


And the knight saw that girl, meant what she said that he carried her, to his castle, and gave her shelter, food, and clean clothing, but she was so happy now that she could write... all she had to do was look into the knight eyes and be inspired to write... And the knight and the girl were very much friends indeed... She laughs at his jokes and stories and vice-versa...
