Quotations From The Heart
Drabble One: Happiness
Summary: Every time her thoughts are plagued with worries, it only takes one look in his eyes, to bring her mind to peace.
"Happiness is when what you think, what you say and what you do are in harmony."
~ Mahatma Ghandi
A soft click filled the silent night air as a figure made its way through the darkness to get to the middle of the garden, where the hammock was situated.
She wrapped the silk robe tighter around her petite body and sat down on the hammock. Releasing a big sigh, she stared at the grass, which was tickling her nude feet.
So many thoughts filled her head as she tried to keep her mind afloat amidst all her worries. She was young and the real life was about to kick in and she was scared.
She hadn't felt this horrible feeling creeping up her spine ever since she met him. She used to be the shy girl, the one who never dared to speak to anyone and whose life consisted of books and attempts to succeed in everything she did. When she met him, he changed her. He made her feel reckless and brave enough to do things she had never done before. He made her feel like she was more than just the freaky math girl. He made her feel alive.
And now, here she was, she thought, as she moved her body so she lay down on the hammock, staring at the countless stars up in the sky. Here she was, feeling like the little girl she used to be once again, not like the strong woman she had grown to be.
She was about to graduate from law school. The beautiful years of learning new things and growing as a person and trying to master a profession she would commit herself to with every ounce of passion she possessed, were almost over. She would have to stay afloat in a new world, a world that was filled with brilliant people and powerful competition and people putting their future in her hands. Would she succeed? Would she be able to become just as brilliant and powerful as the people surrounding her? Would people be thanking her for saving them or would they be blaming her for not being able to help them?
She didn't know and she would do anything to know the answers to the questions plaguing her mind.
And then there was that huge diamond adorning her ring finger and shining beautifully in the moonlight. Tomorrow was the big day. Tomorrow she would be a different woman. She would be married to the man of her dreams. This thought also scared her. What if she wasn't able to give him all he wanted? What if she was the worst wife a man could ever have? What if he realised he didn't love her and left her at the altar?
Feeling a presence beside her, she turned her head away from the gorgeous night sky to stare into a pair of radiant cobalt eyes. Trying to prevent her lips from trembling at the intense look on his face, she scooted over to give him space to lie next to her.
He gladly accepted and snuggled her body close to his, dropping a sweet kiss on her hair as she gently placed her hand over his rapidly beating heart, realising how perfectly their bodies fit together.
"What's on that pretty mind of yours?"
His voice was reduced to a soft whisper as he stared at her intently, as if trying to save the moment and tuck it away in the back of his mind with all the other memories they shared. She stared at him for a long time, feeling all of her worries and anxiety wash away and another powerful feeling taking over.
"I love you, Troy."
She meant every word of what she said. She loved him with every fiber of her being and she knew she would never stop. Her mind, her heart, her mouth, her entire body; they were all set on one thing – him.
And as he slowly fused their lips together, she realised what that beautiful feeling she was experiencing, was.
It was happiness.
