Revenge, Passion, Betrayal
How does it feel to be a protagonist to Sidney Sheldon's
novel? I wanted to ask the people who were now so deeply weaved into their emotions
that those patterns of their longings seemed far away from what they are. All I
can feel is Revenge, Passion and Betrayal in the air. Now passion was one thing
in common for all of them and that too for each other. But where there is
passion why must there be the existence of that ruthless tyrant betrayal? Yes, it
was there because their best kept secrets were not only the secrets but also
the emotions that surfaced every now and then. Closure, solitude and affection were
their need that they hid. Of course these little bits of need of her closure,
his solitude and her affection were tied to their own stories. These were all
the now the new normal. Her tears that soaked the white linen of her bed, his
shouts that cracked the walls of sanity in his head and her need for someone
who is long gone were all the “Normal”. And then I was given a chance to be a
part of their stories. After all these years of just watching by the side and
seeing them, I wanted to be a part of what they were going through. I thought
it would be better to feel than not to feel anything at all. It was tempting
but it came through the wrong way. It was the worst way possible for it to come.
So I threw it away and painfully knowing I would regret it lifelong. And the
comforting thought was:
“I sure am the Infamous witness refusing to be a part of what I see and that’s what it’s destined to be. Without my story in it because it was Revenge, passion and betrayal, there was no place for healing.”
Only if did not have my own story to weave.
