In Search of Destiny

----------------

The young couple were walking along the forest road near their residence. The girl was a few step behind and she kept starring at the boy's hand, trying to hold it with her lovely stare. The boy was whispering a song. Suddenly the girl tripped over a rock. The boy stopped the girl from falling and said,"you should pay more attention to your way instead of me." He winked at he girl and resumed his way. The girl turned pink, but right after other emotion started to dominate. The girl asked with fear,"why don't you give me an answer?"

"I am answering."

"Then tell me, do you love me?"

"Hope, please!" The boy stopped and looked at Hope."

"This is what I mean Wrath, you never answer me. You always run away from this conversation. Even your father admitted we share a bond; our destiny is linked."

"You trust that old man way too much."

"What?"The girl was stunned once again.

"I know you think he is god, but there is no god. I don't share the same views."

"What do you mean? He is your master as well. You told me this."

"Look Hope. I don't just inject what ever he teaches. I digest it. There is main difference between me and my father. He believes in fate. He thinks everything is meant to be. I don't agree with him."

The girl was surprised. She always thought the boy was the younger and more attractive version of his father. She thought how could the boy deceive her so long. She replied,"what do you believe in?"

"It wouldn't be fun if I just tell you. I'm not your teacher so I don't have to answer that. Hey lets just forget about this. We can have a lot of fun together before that old wreck arrives"

"This isn't over"

"Of course not, my love"

The girl turned pink again. she quietly asked,"Wrath, what is destiny?"

"It's you!"

They continued their way deeper inside the forest. They were close to the spot. The place where they share their dreams. The boy looked back at her and said with a smile, "we are almost there. Wanna race?" And without waiting for an answer the boy started to run. The girl ran after him. They reached the cliff. It was a stunning view. The blue sky above, a lake below with trees surrounding everything. A perfect place to jump, to finish it all, to let go. The girl used to think like this before. But now it's different. Now this place was a place to love, to be with someone she loves. The boy went on the edge of the cliff and turned around. He asked,"Should I jump, my hope?" 

"Quit playing around please. You know I hate this game."

"But what if I jump now? What will happen to our precious destiny my father described? Would it end?"

"STOP! COME HERE RIGHT NOW." She screamed with anger. The boy put his hands up as if it wasn't his fault. As soon as the boy got far away from the cliff the girl jumped in his arms. She was crying. As soon as the boy saw her tears his smile vanished. He took a step back and said,"NO!"

The girl started to cry harder but after a few seconds we gained her control and responded,"I don't know what will happen to our destiny, or I if you jump. I don't know what destiny is. But I don't care. I love you wrath. And I can't see you hurting yourself."

"I knew it was too early for this lesson. Indeed I'm not my father" The boy said while turning away from the girl. He added,"One day you will regret these tears. One day you will learn to shape your destiny with your hands without relying on other people." 

"You are hopeless!" The girl shouted while running back in the forest.

"Why did you decide to be my apprentice?" The old man said.
"To learn, my master," he girl pleaded.
The fire and the shadows danced in the room scared the girl, but the young boy was entertained. Seeing his father teaching seemed to bring back good memories. On his chair in the corner of the room, he was watching his father siting behind his desk and the girl siting on the same spot where he used to sit when he was younger, in front of his father.
"Really, but why?" The old man replied.
"I have told you the story, when I first met your son I was in a crisis. Due to the pain I tried to commit suicide. It happened 3 times. On my third attempt your son found me. He showed me the way of reasoning, the wisdom to endure life. After that I became obsessed with the idea of learning; and I found the best teacher, " the girl replied.
"Is it true my son?" the old man asked his son.
"Absolutely not, father."
The girl was stunned. The old man turned to the girl and said,"Describe to me the day that you saw my son. And my son you will interrupt when ever you did not agree. There are only a few ways to find out the truth."
"As you wish master."

One year ago:
The wind was strong as it moved through the hair's of the young girl. The girl closed her eyes, she took a breath and brought her left wrist forward. She opened her eyes and took her last glimpse at the hilltops. The sky was blue but dark with white stains on it; it looked like a painting by a goth painter with no sense of beauty. The landscape was empty, no trees, no living creatures, only grass. Green grass, more like a little army of snakes moving their tails. It looked like childish painting by a depressed kid that probably has autism. There was nothing in this picture worth looking at, rather living for it. With her eyes closed she swung her right hand with the blade on her left wrist. The blood splashed out of her hand and she slowly fell. As she was falling something or someone stopped her. But she had already passed out.
She tried to open her eyes, but she was too weak. She tried to say something but the only sound she could make was a murmur. She thought she probably failed again; she is so weak she can't even kill herself. But then she felt something, something warm beside her, something was holding her wrist. She made another sound and moved her neck in the position of the thing. The boy had bandaged the girl's wrist and was putting pressure on it. He realized the girl was conscious and said,"Don't worry. I stopped the bleeding. Fortunately you didn't cut it very deep. I was sitting on the side of the hill and I saw you. What were you thinking? Don't you see this beautiful world? Don't you see if you would have died I could never save a life. You changed my life today. Thank you."

The old man looked at the young couple. He smiled and said,"Now I have learned the truth. Thank you my children."
The girl seemed surprise, and asked:"But I didn't say the reason, the purpose. How did you learn the truth from our story."
The old man replied,"It's very soon for you to understand this my child, but truth does not exist, and it has nothing to do with purpose. It's a view, a perspective. Completely subjective and imaginary. There is no truth. What I learned from your story is a bond you two created. A spark that initiated everything. Perhaps you will find your destiny connected to this bond as well."

In search of Purpose

He went to the same spot again, as if he was looking for something he had missed in his last attempt.
After digging in the area for a bit, he finally stood up; smiled at his partner and said, "Finally something to search for. I was getting tried of finding all I want without an effort. After all there would be no purpose to it. Isn't it right my child?"
The young women smiled and replied:"Does the world have a purpose, she inquired." She started to hop around.
"I told you to avoid memorizing something you don't understand. These words have a meaning far beyond whats on the surface? Do you think you can spit them out with disgrace? Be ashamed of yourself young lady."
"I'm sorry Master. I just heard your music, and I remembered it."
The man turned away from the girl and softly replied, "perhaps I should lower the volume next time."
A young man with long hair approached from behind, he reached the girl and put his hands of her shoulders. The girl looked into the boys brown eyes and smiled. With the courage he gained, the boy said:"Maybe you should tell her what it means, Father"
The old man picked up a stone and said:"What is this stone made of, son?"
"More stones father"
"And what is the purpose of them"
"To become stronger. Or is it? They might not have a purpose"
"Precisely. Do you understand now? My young apprentice"
"Yes master" The girl responded; and the old man disappeared in the ruins.
The boy smiled at the girl and asked:" What are you looking for?"
The girl turned around and held the boy in her arms. With a sweet voice she whispered:"I don't know yet. Everything, and Nothing. Without you here, I would have been lost."
The boy stepped back. The cold impression on the boys face brought sadness to the girls eyes, but she hid it. The boy responded in a deep voice:"Never let anyone light your path. No one has enough fuel for it. You are alone in this world"
"BUT WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS WORLD?" The girl cried out with pain.
"Does the world have a purpose, she inquired" The old man said with a sad smile.
