PARADISE
PARADISE
Standing on the balcony and staring at the twilight, when the sky turns a bit purple, with a cup of coffee in hand is the best time to relax. After the entire tiring day, I stand here seeing beauty of the nature. After a long time, we got a vacation, and the authority also didn't give us any project. Whenever I get some free time I love to look back at my life and recreate those beautiful memories, wishing every time to time travel and live those fascinating moments again. Each picture portrays new stories and incidences. And each tale would again bring back that smile but also there would be tears that rolled down. Out of this all, I loved the tale of the king and the princess. The princess would adore new shoes but never knew her new shoes were the reason for someone's worn-out shoes. When she wished to fly in the sky, the king would spend the money from his torn pockets to purchase the plane tickets. The princess would take part in many tournaments and would win but when she would show the award to the king, the king would only reply ok, try harder next time. He would always hide his delighted & proud smile under his cold face because he knew, if he expresses that he is happy, the princess would not aim higher next time and will also be convinced with the result.
The special day of princess life was her birthday and the king would without fail to buy the gifts for princes. The hands would shiver while paying the huge bills and the senses, would say no, don't buy, but the heart would say for has happiness. When the princess would commit a mistake he would scold so that she improves but he would also secretly cry. As she grew older the king was worried about the fulfillment of her dreams. Was concerned about sending her far away but always chose her success over his happiness. He started working harder. He was a king but not so wealthy by money but by heart, yes. He would wake up early & move to work. he would come home late at night. when he arrived everyone would be asleep and he would be sitting alone having his meal. He had many worries but he was so busy collecting money that he had lost connection with his family. He liked to spend time but if he wouldn't work princess dreams would be incomplete. Soon the day arrived when he had to give away the money and send the princess to another land.
He stood there with crystals in his eyes but didn't stop her and said himself be tough, she will come back after she reaches her destination. Day by day the king had aged and due to the tension of his work, his hair had turned white. But now he could relax as he had done everything to fulfill princess dreams. He would think about how she was doing in her work and was she taking care of herself. They were in touch with each other with the help of technology but the princess would still feel something missing. One day She asked the king that why wasn't he scolding him when she gave rise to a blunder, the king replied I would scold you to improve you but today you have grown up so you know the difference between right and wrong, princess smiled but also was unhappy.
Today the princess has her province and is the girl who is reading this story, and the king of this province is my dad. I achieved it. And about the sad emotion, it still lies within me because today I miss his scolding, his pampering, the cold expressions concealing the happy ones, being a mentor to me, the presents, working day and night for my ambitions, making funny faces, cracking jokes and ya, how can I forget dressing me for school, like a princess.
