Hospital chronicles : karvendhan & supriya : escape from 505

She was trapped by a sorceress in the top most room of the tallest tower. Although she was well fed, the room was dark with her longing for home. It was her destiny. She always dreamt of that day her knight would come and her rescue her. It seemed long lost. He would come by, riding his horse,  faithfully day after day uttering those sweet words. But he had to go back by night fall for the sorceress would return. Dark magic was her specialty and he knew for sure his sword would fall a prey to it. She trusted him and hoped that soon enough her dream would come true. Soon enough she knew the sorceress would be away for two days and she begged him to take her away. It was after sunset and there was no sign of her knight. With tears drenching her unkempt hair she curled into a corner. The sun would have risen she calculated. The door creaked and there stood her knight in shining armour. Without any thoughts she walked to him. He took her in his arms and climbed down the spiral staircase. He was always used to climbing those steep steps. Soon after they stepped outside the tower, sunlight blinded her. He looked at how her skin glistened and instantly knew she was carrying his glow inside her. Riding a horseback was no longer an option and he called his flying chariot. As they waited she looked at him, her eyes emitting fire. Was it the sunlight that did this to her, he wondered while she opened her mouth to speak. "For God's sake, will you stop dreaming or shall I drive?". He laughed and switched the ignition on. They were going home.
Cheers,
Hopie
