The Rainbow Unicorn

On the Way of Scotland!

He was changing crouts restlessly, lying in the bed. His eyes were tightly closed.

"Treasure, treasure" He said while sleeping.

"Unicorn, Unicorn" He again said restlessly.

"Where am I? Where am I?"

"Abernethy has magic." He was continuously saying.

"Light, the light."

"Light, light go away."

He said in an irritating voice.

"Oh! Light go away yyyyy"

He suddenly woke up with a shouting voice.

He was not breathing. The atmosphere was gloomy. He was panting badly.

"What was that? Oh, what was that?" He was not looking in his senses. He started tearing his hair.

Gradually, he regained his senses, so he leaned back on the bed.

He closed his eyes and started thinking about the dream actually about the Rainbow dream.

''Dreams are symbolic. For sure, that dream has so many signs for me." He said to himself.

"It was about Kyle's Unicorn, but why was n't Kyle there?"

"Does that Unicorn exist? Is the treasure the truth? Should I go with her? Let her go alone? Abernethy has magic? Should I really go to Scotland just in search of the stupid Mythology?"

He asked the several question to himself but he stopped at a point and that was 'stupid mythology'. "Why I call that Stupid? I have lived in that dream. I can feel all the pleasure of it even now."

"Yep! Jack, it was not stupid even it has some truth, not complete truth but it has some for sure." He said with tiredness.

"For being rich, I have to go there. I want treasure. I want my family to be happy. I believe in Hardwork but now I believe in miracle myths too." He confessed himself.

He got out of his bed and moved towards the window. He removed the curtains and a gust of cold wind touched him away.

"The sun just rises and after two hours Kyle will be at the railway station." He thought.

"What to do now?"

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath and then he's in front of his cupboard, took out his shorts or shirts etc, and packed them in a suitcase.

"Do what you have to do, because life is unpredictable. We don't know about tomorrow so live the tomorrow as today."

He said that all with a gentle smile to himself.

He zipped up his suitcase and moved to the cupboard again. He took out the letter-paper and a pen with a duplicate daisy flower.

"Dear Mom,

When you find this, I will not be in Northern Ireland but I will be in Scotland. Yes, Mom I'm going to Scotland with my Kyle. We're going to find something new and unique. Hope, it will change our lives. Sorry, I'm leaving without meeting you but we'll meet very soon.

Waiting for your jack. Prayers needed.

Your son,

Jack willows."

He wrote that letter to her mom and wrapped it inside the Envelope with a reel daisy.

"Now, my life will change.

I don't have to worry about feeding my mom and the expenses for her medicine. I can enjoy it with all of my heart."

She said these to herself while packing her clothes.

Catherine sat near her bed. Tears were rolling down from her eyes.

"Kyle! I don't need anything, My child. All I need is just you.

Please don't go."

Mother Catherine said with a weeping voice.

Kyle came to her and kissed on her forehead.

"This would change our life." She said with a gentle smile.

"I'm happy with it, darling!"

Mother was stubborn at that time.

"Everybody said that he's happy but no one is happy, my mom. Everybody needs "more", mom." Kyle said with humility.

"Is Jack going with you?" Mother said with a hope. "He's not free for me, and why does he? After all, we're just friends. I can't force her to go with me." Kyle said sadly.

"He has a big family. His responsibilities are too much. You should understand him, kyle. If he goes, how would he feed his family?"

Mother tried to explain to her.

"Mother Cathy, we have to lose something to gain the other thing."

She barely smiled.

"What if that kyle, you go there and come with nothing. Stop acting and thinking like a child. Who said Unicorns exist?"

Now mother stood up and screamed at her badly.

"And what If that mother, I go there and come with a lot of things."

She said with kindness.

"Oh, kyle! Why are you so stubborn?" Mother is looking submissive now.

"If you don't go with me, at least support me and stand by me. I will not disappoint you." Kyle said with tears in her eyes.

"My child! I'm always with you but I'm so worried about you."

Mother hugged her and said in a weeping voice.

"Why Mom why? I know how to protect myself. I have some food also and a home to stay too."

"Please! Don't worry about me."

Kyle held her mother's face and said gently.

"May God help you!"

Mother prayed to her in her heart.

"I have to go now. Take care!"

Kyle hugged, kissed her and said a "Good bye" She was walking towards the Exit door.

"Stop! Kyle."

She heard a voice and turned back.

Mother was coming with an old purse.

She held the purse in her hand. "There are some coins. It will help you." Mother said with tears.

"Oh mom! I love you."

Kyle again hugged her and then crossed the door.

She started walking along the road with her suitcase and suddenly she turned back and saw her mother who was continuously looking at her.

She waved a GoodBye to Catherine and moved toward the u-turn along the road.

"Of course, there is no substitute of the Mother's blessings."

She brutally wiped her tears and said.

She crossed the Green hills and now she was sitting at the station, waiting for the Horse carriage. After some time, she could hear the sound of Horse's hooves. The white-coloured Horse carriage was coming towards her.

She smiled.

"My destination is just a few steps away." She said in her heart.

Gradually, the carriage stopped in front of her.

The Horseman got down from the carriage and stood to the side with respect.

Kyle couldn't see the Horseman's face because it was covered with a big hat.

"your highness!"

The Horseman said in a gentle voice. His head was continuously down.

Kyle stared at the man in amazement because he never got such treatment in her 17 years old life so, it was surprising to her.

"Hey gentleman, where have you been for seventeen years? Because I never saw such a thing in my life or are you kidding me?"

Kyle said while sitting in the carriage, she spoke the last sentence in a suspicious style.

"There are such people in Northern Ireland too?

Strange."

Kyle said in her heart.

She smiled again and asked a horseman. "Hey, why are you standing like that? I'm not a princess. Let's go. I'm getting late."

"Would you go without Jack?"

The horseman asked with a smile. Now his head was not down but still covered with a hat.

She was shocked at his question .

"How do you know about Jack? Who are you?"

Kyle took out her protective knife and pointed at him.

"I don't have good vibes. I should run." She decides in herself.

"Relax, I won't harm you."

The horseman began to take off his hat.

"Surprise, surprise!"

He shouted with pleasure.

"You!"

She was looking astonished and angry at the time.

"How dare you?"

She roared like a lioness.

"I just want to surprise you." He said with humility.

She looked at him with a mocking smile.

"Why so early?"

"I'm sorry, kyle!"

Jack said with kindness.

"So, now will you go with me?" Kyle asked, raising her eyebrows.

"Yes!"

He smiled and said.

"What if I don't take you with me?" Kyle said cleverly.

"I'd like to be your horseman of this carriage, Madam!" Jack winked his eye and said.

Kyle staggered.

"Every time I say and I'm saying again don't try to do this nonsense with me." She sniffed her little nose.

Jack laughed loudly.

"I know you are ashamed when I winked my eye."

Kyle stared at him angrily.

"You are a little misunderstood. Haha!"

"Do I take off from this or would you like to drive this carriage?"

She said threateningly.

"Oh yes! Let's go."

Jack sat down over the horse and their new journey had began.

The sun was shining with all its splendor. The ground at the ferry station was sunny. Both people were dragging their suitcase.

"Two ferry lines link Scotland with Northern Ireland." Kyle said while looking at the tickets of the ferry.

Jack didn't say anything because he was thinking about his dream. That dream was distracting him again and again.

"How will we travel to Abernethy?" He thought.

Kyle stared at him strangely.

He waved her hand in front of him and said.

"Jack, Jack...Are you OK?"

"Oh, yes I'm OK. We should go now." He spoke after returning to his senses.

Kyle nodded in agreement.

"We will travel through the P&O's ferry." She solended after saying.

"Kyle, if we are going to find the magic, so why would we not travel to the magical place through any magic?" Jack asked with interest.

Kyle got silent for just two minutes.

"Did you hear the word Hard Work? OR do you have some patience? OR are you here to just make me angry?"

She gritted her teeth and asked him angrily.

Jack laughed loudly.

"I will never tell my Dream to her." He decided in his heart.

"Let's go!"

Kyle rolled her eyes and sat down on the ferry.

The ferry had started moving.

Both people were silent.

After watching the beauty of the blue ocean, Kyle took out her Book and started reading because she didn't know where to go after it.

She started reading the fifth page because the map was present there.

"Oh! Jack, There are puzzles, we have to solve them." She screamed with joy.

Jack came to her and started staring at the book's page.

"Don't tell me, you found that right now." Jack said angrily. "Yes, I found it right now." She stiffened her neck.

"Why so early? darling!"

"When the right time comes, the work should be done at that time."

She again said stiffly.

"Congratulations to you! Miss Kyle, finally, you found out the right time."

Jack said sarcastically.

"Thanks, let's solve the first puzzle! So we can go there

first."

"I like poems, I love poetry and I'm the national poem and poetry of where you go! I have books, I have a centre,

I like poems, I love poetry!"

Guess who I'm?"

"National poem, national poetry...do countries have national poems and poetry too? I heard it for the first time. Why so late?"

Jack said thoughtfully.

Kyle looked at him with boredom.

"It was talking about the national poet. Fool!"

Suddenly, Kyle was shocked.

"Oh, yes it was about the national poet of where we go."

"And we're going to Scotland." Jack said with a surprise.

"So, who is the national poet of Scotland? Jack!"

"Of course! Kyle, you're the group leader so you should know about it very well." Jack said cleverly.

"You're the most dramatic person I have ever seen." Kyle gritted her teeth.

"So who is the national poet? dear!" Jack ignored his title and asked her again.

"Robert Burns is the national poet of Scotland." Kyle said with happiness.

"So how do we know what Robert Burns has to do with that place?"

Jack asked, raised his eyebrows.

Kyle looked thoughtful.

"The word centre and book have the other clues."

"Where is Roberts Burns's centre of books?" Jack asked her.

"Do you forget the whole primary classes? We have read about Robert.

His centre is located at Dumfries and Galloway." Kyle rolled her eyes and said.

"Oh! Dumfries and Galloway, we have to go there." Jack said with excitement.

"Wow, Jack wow! You are not so stupid as I thought." Kyle said with joy.

Jack rolled his eyes.

"The girl never misses an opportunity to make fun of me."

He thought bitterly.

Kyle stood with excitement and moved toward the little window of the ferry from where the blue ocean could be seen.

She shouted loudly.

"Dumfries and Galloway, we're coming!"
