Prologue

1058 Words
What if you got to realise what wrong you did in your life by trusting some people whom you should never have, but only when you have been struggling with the last breath of your life which was going to leave you soon? What if you could clearly see the unmasked faces of the ones whom you have always considered as the dearest, but you have no time to go back to the past to make it all right to avoid such an ending of your life? What if you could do nothing but regret over your blind love which was now going to take your life with out any mercy by burning your existence in the violent fire which was ignited only to turn you into ashes and nothing else? What if…? What if you have left to do nothing except for wondering what could you have done if you got to know about all these treachery before it was too late? Yes, it is too late to think now. Cause the only thing I could see now is the vicious fire which was burning all around this place and I am stuck inside a room from where I could not even get out to save myself, no matter how much I tried to do so. The intolerable heat from the blaze had already started to melt my skin but I could not even scream, cause the inhumane pain which I was going through did not allow me to use any of my strength except for praying for my life to end as soon as possible so that I could be free from such an intolerable suffering. It was not that the fire was the only thing which had prevented me from saving myself from the very beginning of my doom tonight. No. There was more. The fight that I had lost tonight caused all my bones to be broken so that I could never dare to stand up again. I was beaten up badly, causing my body to get stained by my own blood ever so miserably that one could barely recognise the face which once used to be enough to let certain people know who I am and where do I belong. But little did I know back then that even I had to see this night one day, when I will be meeting death without even getting any chance to fight back. It was not that I did not want to fight back, rather, I could not. Cause, I was drugged without my awareness by someone whom I used to love with all my heart. Now it looks like my death had already been planned way before and it was my fault that I failed to see through their lies cause I was a fool in love. Wasn’t I? You must be wondering who the hell I am and why am I talking such gibberish, right? Well, I am Maya. And this is the underworld life which I was talking right now which did bring me to this pathetic end tonight. Cause I was no normal name in the mafia world. I happened to be the leader of one of the largest and strongest clan which was growing to be the number one mafia group under my leadership. Even though I never wanted to be a part of this world, but my fate led me to inherit the mafia group one day cause my father needed an heir to keep his business going. As i was the eldest daughter without any brother, I had to step in this world anyhow to fulfil my father’s wish even when it cost me to leave my dreams behind. I was only twenty when I stepped into this world for the first time and came a long way since then. Fifteen years have passed within a blink of an eye as it still feels like yesterday when it all started. Though my journey was not that awful over the past years or at least it did not look like one back then, until now. Only when I was standing at the verge of my death, I realised how I was living in some kind of oblivion for all these years. Lies, it was all lies that I kept believing. But when the fog finally lifted from my eyes, it was unfortunate of me that I had no time to fix all my wrong decisions that I relied on my past. Only if, I could relive… only if I was given another chance I would never let myself repeat the same mistake that I had done fifteen years ago. Only if… But it is already too late. I can not move, neither can I think more. My limp and scalded body kept lying on my own blood pool ever so miserably and the only thing I could do is to watch the fire eating me up bit by bit, letting me feel the deadly pain before I close my eyes once and for all. Even though I have lost all my strength to keep my eyes open, I could still hear all the noises around me. The vicious sounds of the entire villa breaking down due to the fire, the noises of my people out there somewhere who were trying to find me out. But nobody knows where I was, except for those who were the very reason of my condition right now. I could hear their voices as well. Oh!!! I can not believe how well they could pretend as if they know nothing. In fact, they have been pretending with me like this way for years after years. It was just that, I got to know about their true faces tonight only. No, it was not true actually. Everything was always right in front of my eyes, but I guess it was me who did not want to believe as if I was blinded by love. How could I not, when I had no one else in this world whom I could call my own? I guess, that was where I was wrong. In this world, no one is loyal to anyone, no matter how close they were. And I have learned my lessons. But for what? I am dying anyway.
