MELVINEvery single person in the room suddenly became magnified and slow : the scent of people , the sounds of heart beats , the flicker of a firefly glowing outside the window and Melvin slow rotation of his head to see who had called out his name. The mere sight of the person made him shocked as his eyes dilated, surprised at who it was ,it was certainly someone he had not been expecting; it felt as though he had seen a ghost ."Shaman!." He blurted out more out of shock than surprise.This was the last place he had expected to see him , right there in the middle of the city faraway from his miraged habitant."What the hell are you doing here ?" He asked again.The Shaman didn't give any reply to his question but instead gave melancholic laughter that echoed through the whole pub , Melvin looked around hoping to see a lot of eyes peering at their direction considering how loud he sounded."You ask a lot of questions about Melvin Asgard ." The Shaman."Well I am not really here ."
MELVIN"TICK,TICK , TICK "Each sound of the clock had a drastic effect on Melvin mind ,he could not still wrap his mind around the fact that he was having a near death experience , everything still seemed to him as a dream an illusion but the fact that The Shaman was there at Asgard ,the fact the everyone he touches disappeared into thin air like fragments of souls ,he sighed deeply as he closed his eyes hoping that when he opened them again he would be on his bed most probably sweating profusely from the bad dream be was having . "You are a very hard man to convince Melvin Asgard." The Shaman said after watching him for a while he could tell he was still doubtful of everything that was going on."Let me help you understand this." He whispered to him."Yeah ,that would be very helpful ." Melvin said with hopeful eyes his mind almost going crazy about the whole situation."Now what was the last thing you remember doing ?." The Shaman said with a finger tapping the side of his head in
Khloe stared at his body covered now with a duvet , she could see that he was healing so quick already after they had pulled him out of the bathtub and laid him on the bed . She had walked in with Susan to serve him his dinner since he had not come down to eat and Katherine had thought it was a good idea if she had come with Susan so he wouldn't go all angry on her . At first they had walked Into the room and found the broken glasses in the ground just then Edmund had walked in too with a maid who helped in picking up the glasses while Edmund and Susan watched , Susan had been the one to wander into the bathroom and then scream. Her scream echoed throughout the whole house and it brought Katherine and her mother running down to Melvin's room along with a few guards and a maid. He appeared white and unconscious with the water in the bathtub pinkish or light red in color. They had pulled him out and placed him on the bed and now the wound on his head was healing faster than any wou
MELVINThe evening was calm as he went down to dinner . The only sound he could hear even from a distance was that of the clattering of forks and knives on the white China plates.It was only a day after he almost drowned himself . A day after he had gotten so angry with his mother and had gone up to his room to drink his fill of alcohol before slipping and hitting his head on the bathtub and falling face deep into the tub.He thought about what would've happened if Susan had not walked in , just as the Shamanic man had said he would've been trapped there forever and most probably another soul would be an inhabitant of his body by now .Khloe was at the table again . As a matter of fact she was everywhere around the house , it felt as though she was trying to torment his mind and as much as he wouldn't have liked to admit it , she was doing a great job at that.Today however she looked alot different, more calmer and exceptionally beautiful as she served his mother and stood at the t
KHLOESusan was more outspoken than anyone Khloe had met. So as soon as Khloe sat right beside her at the table , she soon started talking away despite her mother warning her several times .She was Khloe's polar equal, though in a different way . She talked the same way and took each of her food the same way as well - little spoonful but very fast.Khloe settled for the lettuce salad , she wouldn't want to out do herself by reaching for the salmon or something else at the table .She took each little spoon without twirling it around with her spoon . As Mel watched her, still angry that she was still with them and making him look uneasy in his chair .He watched as she swallowed each spoon of the lettuce , He watched the way the side of her neck moved as she chewed .Claire sat on her other side. She leaned back in her chair with the first four buttons of her shirt unbuttoned, she was looking at her brother watching as he was lost looking at Khloe .She'd seen that smug way h
There are many times in life when a man tries to hide his emotions in the facade of another. A period of a man's life when he just had to fake his true feelings with another . Call it camouflaging , call it manly ego , there is no definite definition for it .It is sort of a defensive mechanism triggered at his lowest point, a mechanism triggered to prevent him from looking so low and out of place . A period when he fakes a smile despite feeling deep pain and anxiety but this was not one of them .What Melvin felt was expressive. His emotions were painted expressively on his face with many colors and it ran down his face like a work of art drenched by the rain .He couldn't wrap his mind around the fact that Khloe was Silver headed and he showed it. Everyone could see it - The shock was reflective."Melvin are you fine ?" Katherine asked in his state of shock."Melvin! " She had to call his name again .Melvin made a jittery and almost spilled what he was drinking. He was a bit
MELVINThe Silver hair on Khloe kept reflecting in his mind , it was as a mirror, a mirror that showed him all of his emotions and fear at the same time .He had seen a lot of silver hairs before that time but Khloe's hair felt so familiar, it felt as though he had had that particular shade of it a lot of times and it spooked him.He was furious with himself though , he had made a fool out of himself out there and when he wouldn't have bothered on a normal day the mere presence of Khloe had been spiteful .How could he explain how he had felt if asked, how would he say that the hair of the woman he claimed he hated had created a shallow hole in his heart he couldn't fill up with the same debris and sands that were brought out of it ?He needed a break , he had to go away from everything for a while to clear his head but the more thought about getting away from this known stranger quickly the more attracted he got to her . She was like a magnet and he was a piece of useless metal and
MELVINThis was the plain truth. "Not every one could handle being a man like Melvin."His mother used to say Asgard dynasty men were brewed differently and forged separately by the moon goddess and fate . Though maybe it was an excuse to justify their possessive attitude toward certain aspects of life.Asgard male offspring were not necessarily greedy, they just felt entitled to things and wouldn't mind going the extra mile to get it .Melvin had always laughed it off when his mother had said it, but here he was after so many years admitting to that fact. He was born possessive.Melvin wanted things that were not practically his, he wanted everything and didn't mind what it cost him. He watched as his sister left the room, they had blabbed about this and that with Melvin choosing to remain quiet on why the Silver hair had been a problem to him.A wave of awareness had run down his spine again hen he had seen Khloe in the hallwayher gaze settled on him from across the hallwa
