A WINNER'S WIN

was a good time Saiph spent with blue, warm compassionate time.  Sense of unity like he has never experienced before, quality of love at the dinner, stories of the good old times, a security and relief. Like one can let his guards down, ego aside and mask off. The life is not as cautious and delicate. You don't have to worry about making things right, having it together.

But every now and then this love mocks Saiph of what he is missing . He was left out by love, as a child. Then he became unworthy in his mind. He searched for it in the wrong place. And gave up on love when he didn't find it. From not believing love exists to swearing he can live without it. All this time he never saw love.

He would kiss every girl in the club, stay awake all night watching them asleep in his bed, in search of an unknown feeling which he desired to feel.

He had never felt it , he didn't know what it is or how it is, but he needed it, like it will fill up some void inside him.

It's like a flame and a spark, but also like soothe and pacifying .

Saiph never understood these things, but now he didn't even want to.

This Christmas was the only one in ten years, when he didn't woke up in camera flashes, didn't go through another scripted day, making efforts to portray himself as an angel.

Positivity, good vibes

Parties, big smiles

This is my whole

God damn life

I 'm surely getting back with a good roast album.

" marry Christmas son, oh!  Come here my boy " she was a true god mother. So was her husband, Edward. Saiph secretly believed that having Edward as a father is a blessing for blue compared to his real father.

" Santa brought you gifts , now one by one .dont get too excited " she was clapping with excitement.

Blue in his nightwear, half opened eyes, messy hair, blank face and yawning, gave her annoyed look.

" really mom ?  Because there are literally just 3 gifts so who is excited?  Maybe the one ,for whom Santa forgot to bring any. "

" no dear!  Santa didn't missed out anyone. " she quickly fetched one and handing it to Saiph, looked at blue  " you thought!  Eh!  Eh? ,"

Blue rolled his eyes and sighed heavily.

" he is a celebrity ,may I remind you "

" don't celebrity receive gifts? "

" yes they do . That's what I am trying to say "

" why you have to always speak nonsense? "

Edward entered, carrying woods on his shoulder and axe dangling I'm his hand.

" marry Christmas " firstly the roar, and then the way it echoed, it ran life through every thing.

" Saiph got his gift, run boy quickly grab yours, or you will loose it!  " blue shook his head in sweet embarrassment.

They all sat , holding their gift .

" we open them together okay, on three, two... "

" wait  ,wait honey. You said Blue is your gift.  Are you gonna unwrap him on ' one ' ?? Hahaha "

Blue held his head down.  Saiph laughed until a tear fell down his eye.

Blue got a hand knitted pair of gloves. Edward got whetstone. And Saiph got skin ointment cream.

" maybe in my worst nightmare  I accidentally asked for a pair of gloves , but I am sure Saiph didn't ask for a scar healing whatever old people herbal cream "

" It's for his hand, you stupid "

" why ?  are you going to make him cook in your stone age oven "

Both his parents stared at him.

He thought he won the argument, but when he looked at Saiph's hand, the palm was burnt badly. The winner smile turned upside down.

" what happened? " he held his hand and stretched it out.

" nothing much "

" tie it up  "  he looked at his mom " mom, bandages " ,she was now smiling victoriously and teasingly.

" you cook breakfast, and I help out your friend here " ,she offered a deal.

Blue got up " let us all benefit ourselves with this cream "  deal was closed.

                        *****

Carefully ,she removed the skin which was flaking away, kindly spread the ointment. Slowly, carefully like elderly.

" You are a patient man,. Oh ho!  It hurts, doesn't it? "

" it's the pain of healing, one should be patient with it ".

"  that's well said . Your mom told you that? "

"yes! " he said surprisingly.

"she,.. She used to treat my wounds. Same bandage stuff ."

She clipped the dressing with a big baby pin.

"  so you used to get yourself hurt often ,naughty boy? "

Blue in great restlessness indicating her mom , to stop inquiring Saiph, from the kitchen. Waving his hands,  ,giving her signs to don't bother him. 

" No silly, we don't want a fish out of water for breakfast?  " his mother responded to the symbolic hints.

"  okay mom.because you deserve a cold fish "

" focus on your work. Don't you burn the breakfast while I fry my better fish "

Utter disappointment for Blue.

" so were you a naughty boy ?" she got back to her question.

" not really! " in a hesitating tone.

" Blue is  acting too official , were he normal, you know what time it is for  !!!!?? " Edward stretched the last word until he heard the answer.

" Christmas songs "

Then he turned on the TV, filled with an overflowing desire to dance on the Christmas songs.

Supposedly,  the story which ended some days ago, after being rejected due to it's unauthenticity , takes another interesting turn.

Damien claims some grim facts about Saiph, in his Christmas article . Today, Damien reopened the case of his alleged chase by Saiph Raven. It looks as if the matter is not solved after all. What will be next, will be decision of how genuine the facts are which Damien claims about Saiph Raven.

Saiph eyes widened , he feared like a convict . He had a ton of questions in his mind but fear was before all.
