In Search of Patience:

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

The burning sun made the thirst harder to endure. She ran out of water a few hours ago. The thirst was killing her. She felt dizzy and her eyes could not see well. She said to herself, "keep walking, keep walking. I can't die here." She kept walking through the dessert, for hours, but she reached nowhere. She was lost, without any sense of time. Her eye's started to darken, and she fell.

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

"shhhh, just wait here and don't move." Wrath said to Hope. They were in the forest, hiding behind a tree. 

"Why are we here?" Hope asked while clinging onto Wrath's hand. 

"We are going to see something extraordinary. But only if you stay quiet. If you move you would put both of us in danger." Wrath said and went to the other side of the open area behind the tree. He had a gun with him. 

While each of them were hiding behind a tree a bear came out with her little cub. Out of surprise the girl moved and made a sound. The female bear roared and charged toward the girl but before going far a bullet went through her head and she fell right before the girl. The scared bear cub ran to the mother and cling to its corpse. Wrath came out of his hideout while shouting,"What the hell was that? What gave you the idea to…" but with the glimpse of the girl he lost all his rage. Hope was immobilized, her eyes were as big as a cup. She could not even cry. The boy sat beside Hope and held her tightly. After a few minutes her ice melted. She sightly moved and the tears started to race down her cheek. Wrath quietly whispered,"patience my love, patience."

"Hey miss, can you hear me? Try to open your eyes". Hope tried to open her eyes but she could not!

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

"Come on, let me read it." Hope was trying to have a glimpse of the paper which the old man was holding. The old man hold the paper back and said, "no, child. It's too early. You wouldn't understand it."

"Master please, just let me have a look. I always wished to read your writings. I heard you are great." Hope begged the old master. 

"And what would you learn from it if I show it to you?" The old man eyes were putting weights on the girl and brought her down to her knees. 

"But master if I don't read it I won't learn anything. Please let me" The girl pleaded. 

"There is something what you can learn. Contain your excitement for a year. On this day a year from now I would let you to read this story. Patience is the key to achieve anything." The master added,"Also contain the same enthusiasm." He left the room with a smile. 

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

"Water… water"

"Here, just drink slowly. Please try not to move. Just rest."

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

"It has been a year now. I have waited a whole year. I thought about it every night. I scratched 364 lines on a tree. I'm dying to read it." The girl said with joy. The old man was happy to see the girl bursting apart out of excitement. Her joyfulness in the past year kept the house alive. 

The old man handed her the paper. The moment she was unfolding the paper every muscle in her face was flexed. But then they all dropped, she looked up with dead eyes. The Old man was still smiling. Hope said,"I think you gave me the wrong paper. There is only one word in it and it's wisdom. I thought I'm going to read you writing."

"Well this is my writing. And yes, life is cruel. You waited all this time for nothing. You gain nothing. There is no meaning, no reward, no gratitude. Nothing for this long wait and the energy you wasted on waiting for this. You fooled yourself. Sometimes no matter how long you wait, there is simply nothing there to gain." The old man took back the paper and teared it apart in front of the girl. The old man walked away and the girl did not move.
