Deep in the meadow, under the willow. [roug]





bed of grass, a soft green pillow



Shamwari's words echo in her head, an ominious warning that she can not seem to shake. How can she possibly look at Roug with the same excitement? Or with a gittiness that shakes her to the core? It seems for the girl that those days of naive belief have been pushed behind her. Roug was not who he had told her he was. And the betrayal festures and poisons her heart until all is left is a bitterness that robs her of her love for him.

On this evening she has unburied herself from within the shadows of the jungle, and now stands poised at the edge of the frothing surf. The sun had just faded beneath the horizon and with an explosion of color it fades to dusk. A single star twinkles above her crown, and soon would be joined by others. She focuses her bicolored eyes on the purple sky, just above the fading pale orange light of the setting sun. Her heart lurches as the her child flip flops. His child. She swallows hard as a lump develops in her throat. A single tear slips down her cheek and trickles along the sharp edge of her cheekbone. How could he? "Damn you Roug," she curses into the night air, letting the soft sea breeze carry her words away.

She swallows hard and pathetically tries to sniffle her tears away, but they are stubborn and soon wet her cheeks. "Mother," she whispers wistfully into the still night air. As if her mother could hear her, and would soon materialize before her with a soft smile on her pink lips. Oh Caly girl, please don't cry, her mother would say with a soft bump to her shoulder. You are strong and I raised you to be a fighter. Caly closes her bicolored eyes, and breathes in deeply.

The soft buzz of the tropical insects lulls her into a soft slumber. For a moment she lets her troubles fade from mind, and takes a stroll with her mother along the sands of Paradise. It is but a dream, but Caly does not care, it is a moment with her mother.
