The pendent

(A muslim girl and boy story )

Raeesha POV,

I'm sitting on the edge of a little pond where the moon reflect it's full shape uninterrupted by the tiny waves hitting it's edges and my feet under water. I just visited my parents Qabbar (Graves) it's never remind me of their love rather daily arguments and burden of their responsibility. I visit them whenever I feel happy to show them that I have happy and their love for me is still protecting me from sorrow and failure of my decisions.

I was hitting the waves coming to me and enjoying the view of the moon on the silver surface of the pond. Unaware of the problems, the job, the sounds, the dreams , the failure , the decisions..... My eyes were searching the reason why moon show it's beauty, it's shine when no one is thanking it for its endless striggles. " You are still shining, why you are not tired see the water is trying to catch your beauty..." saying this I look at the water again I saw a very beautiful white light, it's not the reflection of moon this time what is this. I look at the moon and again look at the light.

"You can't scare me by this" I said to the moon still looking at the light, I bent a little to see where is this light coming from. I saw a very beautiful pendent and sighhhh I was being dramatic for no reason. I strech my hand and pull the pendent out of the water. it's a silver chain with a water drop like structure hanging on it. it's look good and new. Someone throw it or it fell by accident. It is not Dirty means it's not in the water for long. "what should you do Raeesha if you leave it here it will be a waste and no one can search it but if you take it without permission it will be called stealing".

I took out my handkerchief from my pocket and clean the water from the pendent I saw a tiny hole in this water drop like structure it's look like a key hole. Try to open the thing but I failed it's small and strong. "It must be very important, what should I do..." I murmured to myself. I am miserable at making decisions. But this thing is very mysterious. I took few deep breaths and decided to take the pendent with me. But what if someone come here in search of this and what if they think of me as a thief.

I took a stone and write my address on the small bridge wood of the pond and took my handkerchief and settle it with the stone near the written address. " I hope my decision is not that bad this time." I should go to my work.
