'Its alright' said Alexander reassuringly. 'Its just that ship over there firing its cannons. The custom in this port is that once you go out to sea,you fire your cannons.' he smiled. Alexander hesitated for a moment.'Anya I want to show you something,but you gotta trust me. Shut your eyes.' Anya hesitated,but only for a moment.
Anya shut her eyes and felt Alexander take her hand. He led her forward,then the path seemed to change from grass to gravel. Finally, they stopped and Alexander let go of her hand and she felt him hold her waist from behind.'Alright open your eyes' he whispered into her ear. Anya opened her eyes.
Oh what a beautiful sunset! Anya was bathed in the rays of the sun,as she stood watching it sink into the tide. The rays streaked gold and amber into the sky,Anya felt she could reach the sun if she took just another step. She reached forward and her foot landed...on thin air! She stumbled backwards into Alexander's arms. 'Its alright I got you. This is Aura's Point. Its one of my favourite places on this island.' he said,and Anya silently agreed with him.
'There was this girl named Aura,who used to come here every sunset. She loved to gaze out at the sunset and she would raise her arms,as if to embrace the sun in its final moments. One day, Aura never showed up. And the next day. And the next. I wondered why,till I saw a funeral held here. Aura had cancer and was dying even as she came to look at the sunset daily. In memory of her, we named this spot Aura's Point.' said Alexander as he grazed at the sunset. Anya closed her eyes and whispered 'Rest in peace,Aura'.
'Lets go shall we? I promised Mrs Henderson I'll get you back by sunset.'said Alexander as he slid his arms away. Anya rested her hands on his and whispered 'Just a little while more'. She leaned further back into Alexander's arms and closed her eyes. Alexander held her tightly and gazed at the sunset. He did not want this moment to end,but he had to tell Anya the truth soon.

I'm a simple guy turning 19 this year.
I lend a helping hand to my friends when they fall, and a listening ear to my friends when they talk.
Kind, caring and nice are what my friends say of me.
I created this blog to start writing my stories, poems and etc.
Do leave me a comment on how I write.
Thank you.
