Tonight I Love You Forever – 1

Tonight 01
Bury my lovely
Bury the lies
Bury me under
A thousand good-byes
A shadow from another time
Is waiting in the night
Something happened long ago
Something that will not let go

(October Project)

Tonight 02
“Mitrik, are you going to sit there at that piano, that’s all you do. You need to get out every now and then, don’t you think?”

“No, I don’t think…Imeena…you go and enjoy yourself. I’ll be right here.”

“Yes, I’m sure you will be. You’re wasting away… Stop pining for her, it’s been too long, she’s not coming back.”

Tonight 03
“Yes, you keep telling me that. I’ll find her. You look like her, did you know.. but you don’t even come close to being like her. There is no one that can ever be like her.”

Tonight 04
“Stop it Mitrik! What do you know!”

“I know you are NOT her, yeah that’s what I know.”

“One day Mitrik, you will fall and I won’t be here to pick you up.”

“Yes you will, you keep coming back. I don’t know why, but you always do.”

Tonight 05
“Well not tonight honey, don’t wait up cause tonight I won’t be back.”

“Yes you will, you know good and well you will.”

Tonight 06
Imeena’s hang out was Plasma 501. Vamps weren’t her chosen friends the only thing they have in common is immortality. The bar has dark atmosphere which at the moment she liked. Ordering herself a Deep Despair, it seem to fit the mood she was in.
Imeena was part of a plan sent in by the brothers. She had power but not enough.

“Hey Granger I know you’re there. I can smell you.”

Tonight 07
“You’re late.”

Tonight 08
“Well yes I guess I am. Somehow I knew you would come find me.”

“Imeena this is a matter that needs to be taken care of as soon as possible. We are waiting for you. Come now.”

“I will after I finish my drink”

Tonight 09
With heavy feet and heart she met the brothers.

“Have you made progress with Mitrik?”

“No, Granger..I have not, you’re not dealing with any ordinary man here.”

“He is our brother and he needs to become one with us. We are powerless without him. If he refuses then we need his ring. That was your part to bring him here if you can’t manage that then get that ring.”

Tonight 10
“Why don’t you just go get it yourselves, why do you need me? I have no power over him, not as long as he continues to love Samantha. You may have changed me on the outside to look like her I cannot persuade him. How am I supposed to get that ring. He never removes it.”

Tonight 11
“We cannot enter the house but you can and your time is running out… GET THAT RING!
Seduce him! Why have you not done so already?”

“I can’t get close enough to him, he won’t let me in. He stays guarded.”

“Then change your approach. He let you move in did he not.”

Tonight 12
As the night wore on Mitrik moved his fingers along the ivory keys, music filled the air stirring his soul, calling to his love long lost. Mitirk has been long stuck on this plane of existence.
He and his Brothers Soloman, Granger and Daniel were among a powerful sect.
His beloved Samantha was cast into a place neither here nor there. It was an accident he knows this but needs to blame someone. So it is his brothers in arms that he blames. They only want his ring for evil reasons. Mitrik knows this. He knows too that Imeena has come by way of his brothers doing.

Not quite a vampire whom he despises but not quite human either. Without her he was nothing. Nor he or his brothers could make it right. Only together were they powerful enough to move through time. Or if the forth ring became in contact with the other three and Mitrik was going to make sure that never happened.

Tonight 13
Sleep comes rarely to Mitrik. Alone in the house she comes, a wisp in the air, his room fills with the scent of sage and thyme, flowers from a time long since gone.

Tonight 14
For this moment he cannot wake up. In his mind he screamed “MY GOD MAN!!! WAKE UP! SHE IS HERE!! WAKE UP!!!

Paralyzed…he cannot move…

Tonight 15
With the light of morning she is gone.

To be continued…

Where did you go to my love – Finale

Banner Azra EnglishWith pain in my heart, we say goodbye to this story today.
Azra has become very dear to me and I have to thank Maris (Haagje) for creating her. Thanks my dear friend, you did a bloody good job!
OK
(I love you too Barb!…you’ve been such a great friend and support… and well…, I am getting sentimental for no reasons!) The end

ENJOY!

*****

Where was I? Its the age…. I get a little forgetful. Sorry about that. Ah yes. Yin.
I talked a lot about children the last time we spoke. All those babies
yes. Murphy and I had four. Our youngest one, Shuzi, goes to college now…. Great kid, love her! Shes such a sweetie!
But I want to tell you about Yin, and how she made everything come together in the end. In the end of what? Well.. Let me tell you.

Our daughter Yin. She took so much after me. I was very proud of her. A straight A student and ambitious to be the best she could be.

When Yin turned eighteen, she had pretty much made up her mind about what she wanted to do next.

The plan was to go to China, see where her daddy came from and see the country, to see where it had all begun for us ‘Laws’.

Murphy and I agreed that I was to travel with her and help her get a start in our house on the hill in Shang Simla.

It had been more than 20 years since we had set foot on Chinese ground, and I was anxious to see if my old friend Ho had taken good care of the house. It was still there as we left it.

I noticed that Ai Peis grave was very well tended and grieved for my long lost friend. Memories came back. He was the only one who had known me before the Big Crash, when I lost everything I had here in China…, Cheng Wang Liang. That crash had brought me all the happiness a person could possibly want in the world too, and I smiled.

The garden had been tended to too, I was so thankful that my Chinese friends had been here to see to it that the place would be well kept. Yin and I settled in with much ease.

I showed her one of my favorite spots, the Zen Garden. It was a nice little hike from our house down there, and Yin walked there every morning. She loved the quietness and nothing but the sound of birds singing in the trees.

One morning she found out not to be alone in the garden. A young man was picking the ripe fruits from the cherry tree. He was singing.

– “Hey…! Excuse me! Err Leave some for me!”

The young man smiled at her and said he would gladly share the harvest, but that it was free for anyone who liked to pick the fruits and well keep it all if they would prefer. Yin was a bit ashamed. She apologized….

Hmmm. I am not surprised. I am not surprised at all. Our garden looked so good because this young man had taken care of it for the last 5 years already! Ho was getting old and he just so had his helpers. This man loved gardening and had helped us a lot without us knowing it. Yin felt embarrassed.

That night Ai Peis ghost visited me. I was a bit startled at first, but as he exclaimed AZRA! Oh my…! How good to see you again after so many years! I couldnt be more happy than to see my old friend again.

We hugged, and talked and talked until dawn. I told him everything that happened to me, to us…, to our family these past years. As the sun rose, it was time Ai had to return to his grave.

Ai looked at me and mysteriously he said: This year Azra, the circle will be round again.’ He smiled and vanished….

A few days later Yin was in town to run some errands. Just before going into the bookstore, she saw the cherry man sitting there, reading and having tea.

He quickly got up as he saw Yin. He smiled and asked her if she would care for some cherry blossom tea maybe…, as he knew she liked cherries so much. Now, Yin politely declined his offer, still feeling a bit embarrassed about the whole cherry incident. She once more apologized about that and they talked and talked.

They talked until Yin remembered she needed to buy that book first. She excused herself and said she would probably run into him again someday again.

So he followed her inside and ran into her again. He introduced himself to her, said his name was Cheng Wang Liang. Now Yin let out a deep sigh. That could not be true! There were so many Chengs, her sister loved one for goodness sake. He didnt look much like the Chengs who came from the portal. This one was different…..

That night as she was in the garden and I was inside, he climbed up the hill looking for her.

As Yin invited him to come in they stopped at Ais grave and Yin explained that he was her mothers old friend from a different time and era.

He knew my mom from before the major crash, Yin explained to Cheng.
That is some story  Cheng said. Just then I walked down the stairs and I froze…!

I knew it right away when I saw him. It was him.
Cheng Wang Liang. He was here! He was a young man, just as I remembered him. I almost fainted. But I didn
t say anything. He wouldnt understand. He was Yins age. He was here. He had come back! A modern Chinese man, the hair was different, but the eyes, I knew him the moment I saw him.

It was Ai who visited him in his sleep. Ai knew what the future would bring.

As Cheng woke up he knew he had to go to the mountain with the cherry tree. There was nothing he was more certain of than having to go there.

He also knew this day would be the first day of a new life. He felt happy. It was destiny…, fate…!

High on the top of the mountain the cherry tree stood, and as the sun climbed higher, so did Cheng. His destiny lay there on top of this hill.

It should be no surprise that Yin was there too. This was a place enchanted. She knew she would stay here forever.

– “Yin?”

– “I knew you would come said Yin. I knew it. I felt it. She looked at the man she had met just a few weeks ago and also knew he was here to stay for good too.

So they kissed.
That
s how it started and thats how they mend the circle. It was predestined.

Where did you go to my love? You made a full circle and now you are back. Back with my child, who is so much like me.
Ai was right. The circle is now round again.

I never felt happier in my life. I look at the young woman I once was. She is alright! She found the love of her life, looking for the love of her life. My children are happy….
Everything is good. Life is good. I love life.

The End
