96. Sunset and it's miracles

    I am sitting on the park bench with Sam. Surprisingly, I am not irritated.  I don't want to kill him right now. Wow, this world is very unpredictable.

Sun is moving towards the  West. I can see red rays of sun painted in the sky. Although I am unable to see the sunset because of the tall buildings. I can imagine that it will look beautiful. I want to see it.

 

" Do you know any sunset point around here?", I ask Sam.

 

" I know. Wait a minute I can check on the net...", He says.

 

" It is in the old downtown near  railway station..." Sam.

 

" Do you think we will be able to see it if we want?", I ask.

 

" Do you want to see it?" He asks.

 

" Yeah, I want to.", I nod.

 

" Ok, then follow me. ", Sam says

 

Sam rents two cycles. And we head towards our destination. Yeah, I know how to cycle. It is nice to ride one sometime. Though I am not sure I can do it regularly.

 

AFTER A WHILE:

 

We are here. It is a hill with a small elevation. They have made a perfect pathway to climb it. I wonder if I can cycle uphill.

 

" Do you think you can do it?", Sam asks.

 

" I don't know. I haven't done it before.", I reply.

 

" Alright, no need to risk. You can park the cycle then I will  inform those who manage the website...",

 

"No, I will do it. Even if I do get injured I won't be for nothing. It is now or never.", I say firmly.

 

Sam starts chuckling and rides ahead of me. Why did he laugh? Now I am embarrassed. Idiot...

 

Ok, I can do this. One two three...Yes, I can do it. People around me are looking at me weirdly. No, Myra don't think about anything. You are doing good. You don't care about the people around you. Myra is best. Everyone else is worst. Only Myra is best. La...la ....la...I am so great. I am the best. Everyone sucks...

 

Finally, I am at the top. Where is Sam?

 

" Here, I bought some roasted chicken pops from the nearby stall. ", Sam.

 

" Thanks...", I say.

 

Only some people have visited sunset point. It is probably because of winter. I love this.  I can vividly see sunset from here...It has painted orange, yellow, and red trails behind it. Wow, it looks very pretty. I am glad that I came here. Sometimes being impulsive is nice

 

" Eat your chicken balls. ", Sam.

 

" Fine.", I say and start eating.

 

 I think it feels nice to—...

 

" Finish everything properly don't waste food. ", Sam.

 

" Alright, I will. Now stop nagging me.", I say.

 

" I am not nagging. Just finish all of your chicken balls.", Sam.

 

He is so irritating.

 

" I feel bad for your future wife. ", I say and move my head to look at the sunset.

 

" I am not sure if I want to be with someone after...", Sam. He is unable to complete his sentence but I understood him.

 

" I am also afraid of doing something like that. Even though my parents love each other a lot. ", I say.

 

" See, I told you we are similar. ", Sam.

 

" We are not similar. I am much cooler than you. I am also smart and I will be an engineer while you want to be a dumb writer.", I say.

 

Sam chuckles once again.

 

" Yeah, and you are also anti-social. Don't know how to console people? ..." He says.

 

" As if you are a social butterfly. You always ignore people when you don't know how to answer them.", I say.

 

" Yeah, I do. But you are also like that...", Sam.

 

" I don't ignore people like you. ", I say.

 

" You ignore me all the time.", Sam.

 

" It is because you irritate me. ", I argue.

 

" Everyone gets on your nerves, Myra but you only ignore me.", Sam.

 

" Yeah, because you do it all the time. ", I say.

 

" It means you try to copy me. ", Sam with a smirk.

 

" Why would I copy you? ", I ask.

 

" You just said that you do it because I do it. ", Sam.

 

" Are you even listening to yourself? ", I ask.

 

" We don't that but we can hear you and you are ruining our peace..." A woman with a sarcastic smile.

Oh, no everyone is looking at us. I should just concentrate on the scenery for now.

 

AFTER A WHILE:

 

We silently cycle downhill then move towards the station where we can return these cycles. It is eerily calm on the road because it is already night. I am late. I have never been out for so long.

 

" Keep your cycle right here...", Sam instructs.

I follow his suggestion.

" Are you going home?", I ask.

 

" Yeah, I am...", Sam.

 

" Good...Everything will be fine...", I say.

Sam looks at me and smiles. What a weirdo!

 

" Sometimes you look cute.", he says.

 

" I always do...", I reply.

 

He laughs once again.

 

" Somehow you always manage to make me feel good Myra. "Sam.

 

" What is wrong with you? Have you finally lost your mind?", I ask suspiciously.

 

" You know I always wondered why don't mom and dad divorce each other. They constantly fight with each other. But now I think I know. Perhaps they also feel good. Maybe they still love each other. ", He says.

 

Ok, now he is scaring me.

 

" Ok, great ....", I say and try to leave but he again holds the hem of my sweater and says.

 

"Myra thanks.", Sam.

 

" No, problem. After all, you are younger than me. It is my responsibility to help you." I say.

 

" You know I think if I do marry someone in the future...It might be you. ", he says and leaves.

 

What the hell!
