THE SHOOTING STAR( CHAPTER 5)
"Its over!" and he left. Leaving me in pieces, he left in peace. But..But-t-t" I started stammering cause of the tears which were all this time flowing without any mercy on my eyes and my cheeks.

"But your feelings for him didn't, right?" He smiled, completing my statement. He handed me his handkerchief as a kind gesture and asked.
"It hurts, right? I know it does. You lost someone suddenly, unexpectedly. The person who was your life, is now not even a part of it. I am not telling you that tomorrow is another day. That the sun of hope is still burning. What I want to tell you is that its okay to be hurting as much as you are. It makes you more of a human. It makes you stronger. Its okay to cry. Its okay, child."

I burst into tears and this time they became out of control.

Patting my head, he said, " I know it isn't easy to let go. but its more difficult to hold on to thing which isn't yours. Child, you are that soul which was born by parting galaxies of galaxies. You have the deadliest demons inside you. He shattered you, but you can burn him with the rage you carry in your tears."

"Remember! your hatred is more fierce that you love for others. It can set souls on fire. He wounded your soul? Heal it with self love. He crumbled your heart? heal it with self love. You are the one who decide whether to heal or remain wounded.

"But-t-t, I feel defeated. I feel like it was my mistake that I couldn't make him fall for me. I lost!"

"No you didn't. Its your victory! You lost him, but you found yourself. So you won at last! You couldn't beg him to love you You couldn't beg him to stay when he wanted to leave. But yes, you can do one thing. You can let him go, u can move on and on your way you'll find someone who will love you more than him: you'll found YOU!"

At that very moment, Again a shooting star appeared. We both looked out of the window. It was beautiful. Pointing to it, he said," See, that star's just like you. Its broken! Its alone! but the only difference is its still shining: the same way as it was before!"

His words touched me, my wounded soul. The train had now, reached the station. Waving me goodbye he said," Choose wisely. he or you!"

I got off from the train and started running towards the meteor shower.I have to move on.
"I have decided, I choose ME!" I screamed loud enough for all the stars to hear it!
