CHAPTER 6-THEY MUST KNOW













As the charismatic black sky Meander its prtoective blanket to shower a enigmatic blue to announce the outset of a new Dawn..Jonh tardily opened his eyes with an aesthetic view...and susurrating to himself " Its our Nation's independence day today,we don't have school,and what do we do today...???"...before he could finish off what he was thinking ,he heard a loud noise behind his bedroom wall ..wats this noise????? it was John's parents shouting at the top of heir voice ,quarrelling early in the morning, even before the sun is shone...."John palpated the issue and said,Ohfff, i am gonna have a hectic day man "John reciting the same ,John thought...."""whenever there is a holiday ,almost all the children would love to be at home or go out along with their parents or with their friends,But me?????????????"""..But john was different..since he has faced almost all kind of turmoil at this tender age, he didnt trust any of the people he knew Noteven his parents for that matter .. He enjoyed his days all alone..But John always had a suspicion that what might be the reason behind their parents unhappy life,and why is thier Marriage life so unsuccessful..Is that because of deficit Money??? or lack of proper understanding???? is that because of "me"...?? or something that is beyond the scope of my age or understanding???????? all these questions was perpetually banging John's head.. Since john is the only child he didnt had any one to share either his happy or his lamentable times ...hence whenever John stood up with a vacant or pensive mood, John would just sit alone and start painting watever that flashes upon his mind...Often Sandra failed to understand john craving for the pat of affection..she was so grievous that half of the time she didnt cook at all ... she didnt take care of John...very often this happened,since John is too young he couldnt bear Neither the agony of his heart Nor the hunger of his stomach.His dad was bit concerned about John but then he was afraid of sandra that she might create some other problem if Mr.Wilson could take John along with him for lunch or something like that. JOhn felt that his dad was correct in one way and his mom on other way...he also thought that understanding and Holding up each other in all the walks of life is a properway to lead a peaceful family..." poor mom & dad, u dont know this fact i guess "whispered John.


That evening John thought of visiting Millers hoz,hence he started in his Cycle towards millers house which was just a few miles North from John's house. As the afternoon faded fast into evening, the sun slowly sank in the horizon. The sky was clear, belying the fact that the day before, was storm- tossed and angry. Now, all was forgiven, and the bay sank into a restful peace that spoke to John's heart.John enjoyed taking a long ride in the evenings..After a gratifying pedaling John reached Millers house.John stepped in Millers house ,raised his hands to Knock the door"dock!! dock!!" a middle aged women opened the door ,giving a warm welcome with a happy smile..it was Jessica ,Millers mother. John eyes eagerly browsed through all the rooms in millers home lookin for miller,but he caught no sign of him."How r u doin john???, how is your studies going on??" asked Mrs.Jessica Parker."oh yah i m fine and ma studies goin real gud,well mrs,Parker, where is miller???" oh "you have come to see miller and not me huh??? "mrs.parker was actually chaffing ,even john knows that "no no noo not like that mrs.parker,i jus thought of spending the evening with Miller tats........"soon interrupted Mrs.Parker"i was just kidding son,actually miller has gone some where out with his dad,i hope they ll be back in a couple of hours"...soon after sometime John Left Millers house and started peddling to an unknown destination,where he saw a happy brother and sister playin Badminton in the corridor of a Flat that was a kilometer away from Millers house. Something flashed John,he backed again and took a Brighter look @ those kids again..ohhh!!! It was none other than Laura and her Brother Mark..in his delight John stepped down from his bicycle and walked towards Laura..Laura was Glad seeing John she walked towards him along with her brother .To John's Surprise, Laura Expelled john from her apartment,But John understood that it was Because,she was afraid of inviting a guy to her house,moreover John was new to her and to her family.Without making any hesitation John immediately left her apartments ,while leaving he saw Laura's mom standing in the verandah watching the whole scene.


Left behind alone,John wavered to get back home ...For the first time in his life, he decided to visit the nearby beach,he slowly wheeled towards chaumont bay.After reaching the destination he gently parked his cycle near a lamp post & he took a effortless walk to the shore while walking he noticed many things among which, stood a small house, encircled by a white picket fence, happily basking in the twilight. Along the front of the house, ran a long porch, covered in screen, creating a shelter from insects and bugs. Inside, he could see a porch swing, rocking gently in the breeze. The house was painted a soft yellow, "just like the color of the sun when it rises from the night," John noted. In front of the porch, lay a thick bed of white and yellow flowers. To his delight, he noticed they were tulips. If he stood in the breeze just right, John could smell their fragrance right away.The scene spread before John,as if on display just for him. John struggled to swallow the tears he felt inside."If I could experience, for just one day, a rest as peaceful and quiet as this, I would be content to die tomorrow." He spoke this under her breath, sincerely meaning every word. "I wonder who lives there," he thought, wishing for a look at the inside of such a happy home. John stood there, lost in his imagination.That night as John entered his house he was thwarted by his parents, ther still continued their unidentified quarrel.Without having anything for the night he went to his couch.John's eyes cautiously peeked over his knees. The room had transformed into a beautiful hue of silver.John seeing the moon light felt Relieved .John slowly moved the heavy bed across the floor, scooting it flat up against the south window where the moon's light was the brightest. Now he could sleep in it's light Dreaming all throug the night.For John, light meant happiness.
