Chapter 97
[A/N: Alright, so probably all of you knew Maya was going to die. No big surprise there. The thing is, Kirara was assigned for Maya's soul. Now lets see what happens next. BTW, I have been getting many requests to continue my ArShi works. If I continue to remain unhappy about the reviews on my KR works, I might just stop these and go write my pending ArShi works. That's all upto you guys.]
Rey was pretty sure he was hearing her. He was on the roof, trying to make sense about why she had been like that the other night, and then he had heard her distinctively.
He slowly went down the stairs, an uneasy feeling arising in him at hearing the lyrics of the song she was singing.
It was what she had been singing the first time he met her.
Eyes, blue as the sea and the sky...
She twirled and turned. She knew in her heart now that the song was being heard. She had registered the faint opening of the eyes of the beautiful lady of the house... And it made her sigh in relief.
Water flows, water flows
But in the next moment, realization hit. Tomorrow night would be the night. She continued singing, but for some reason her voice became melancholy.
Heart, burning like fire in the night
She clutched both her hands into themselves, making a helpless fist as her voice chimed on a little louder now. She knew what was coming next, as she could hear footsteps already.
Gently as she goes ...
She touched the fragile lady for one last time, and completed her song. As she raised her eyes, she saw him standing at the door, shivering.
She smiled at him, sadly, and in the depth of her heart, knew what he would do next.
He couldn't see clearly right now. Everything was going red. He took hastened heavy steps towards her, jerked her limbs, and threw her out of the room, into the gallery.
"You WITCH!" He thundered, "You BLOODY FUCKING WITCH!"
