As we kept on going deeper into the forest.. the connection deepened.
Daniel grabbed my hand and gave me a reassuring look.
I know he can feel it too and touching his hand just increases that feeling.. not just increases.. intensifies.
Daniel: Almost there..
I wonder where we are going..
He stops..
I look at him confused
I mean anyone would.. although this feeling.. connection.. is strong but we are standing on a plain ground having grass.. nothing is here.. absolutely nothing.. a plain part of the land which does not have trees.. instead it is surrounded by them.. as if it is specifically left to build something.
Daniel: Wait..
He takes off the ring and asks me to take off the necklace.. I am confused but I trust him so I give him the necklace.
He lets go of my hand and puts both the necklace and ring down on the ground.
I look at him COMPLETELY CONFUSED.
But then suddenly.. a flash of light doesn't allow me to see anything that happens..
But when I open my eyes..
A house.. A huge mansion.
Tear filled up my eyes.
Memories.. I feel memories coming back..
Flooding my brain.. but I am glad it is.. because these are both my worst and my best memories.
I- I can't stand anymore. I can feel it.
They are too much. But I want to hold on.
Daniel comes rushing towards me.
Daniel: Are you okay?
Me: I can feel it daniel.. can you take me in?
He nods and picks me up bridal style..
As we enter the house..
That was it..
The moment..
The moment of truth.
