A few days later, I stood on the banks of the Yaarbal and Sumera stood on the other side . I was staring at her eyes, reflected on the rivulet's surface, when she slowly lifted her burqa and washed her face with the water of the Yaarbal. This brought her adolescent face into view.
A round face shone in the sunlight and its image sparkled on the water; a trick of the light caused the reflection to playfully change colours like a chameleon.
Her lips resembled the petals of a freshly plucked tulip, but unlike tulip's fragrance and beauty that last for just over two weeks, I knew the beauty of her lips was there to stay.
Her nose resembled the newly blossomed flowers of the spring season.
With every splash of water that hit her face, i felt like I was living in my own dream.
A few moments later, the burqa was back in the place , covering the magnificent face that had brightened my day.
I smiled. I knew that she wanted to break out of this barricaded existence and come away with me. I in turn knew that something had to be done.
The glow of her face had stoked the passion in my heart, and i felt as though i must speak to her . At least greet her directly, my heart said.
I was sceptical about this, and it took me so e time before i finally decided what to do.
