On that gloomy Friday, he was lying in the bed and staring at the crowd. People in Tokyo were recovering from a morbid catastrophe. His bed was last one in the room, which was filled with blood. For past three days it heard only cry of innocent victims. It was 1945, when Americans demonstrated their power to Japan by dropping the most deadly invention of science. Whole world thought that Japan was pushed to perdition. It would be this incident which made japan realize their greatest mistake. Many victims were crying to get killed as they cannot see them selves as a handicapped.
Jim had a fade memory of what had happened to him. When he turned to his left, he saw his camera that was rapped. There was a note which said “Will meet you tonight. With love Sharon”.
It took few minutes to remember the face of Sharon. Suddenly his eyes closed. Sedation of Penicillin was working. There was still commotion among the patients who lost their loved ones.
He opened his eyes and saw the lovely face of Sharon. After a long time he was seeing a face that did not have the marks of destruction. He remembered his first meeting with Sharon. It was at Oxford University when Jim was called to attend a seminar on Atomic Physics. Jim was allotted a seat next to lady from Lakeshore who was a delegate from Manchester University. Sharon was told to replace that lady. At the first glance she impressed him with her elite behavior. Their introduction was very formal. After a soporophic lectures by many scientists they both left the university. Jim requested for her company to a coffee shop. From that day their love bloomed.
Jim’s love for photography reached its peak when he got some rare pictures of Einstein. This made him to take photography as his profession. It was one of the reasons because of why he was lying. One week before Jim came to Japan to capture the japan’s development in military. His visit to Japan also had another purpose hidden. It was to meet his first love Sharon. She was working as a junior research analyst in a leading Automobile company.
He went to meet her in Tokyo and spent wonderful two days. Sharon was meeting him after a year. Her eyes were filled with tears as she hugged her lost love. Jim was to be in Japan for one month. On third day he went to Hiroshima, to study about Japan’s advent into the trading with south East Asian countries. His research on his study was on its high when American’s pierced the island to leave a permanent mark. He was far away from the epicenter still he could not avoid the kiss of death.
Luckily he survived it.
Jim’s knee cap and elbow was thoroughly damage. So it has to be operated. Sharon was with him and has made all the necessary arrangements. Before his surgery he got a telegram from london. It said “ Jim where are you. Hope u r fine. Reply immediately. – Anne ”. Jim was shocked. He got a message from a girl whom he thought was dead many years before. Jim was experiencing heavy pain in his heart, which hurt more than his knees and elbows. It was for this girl he left Sharon two years back. It was her love which dragged him away from Sharon. As Jim was taken to operation theatre only one thing was lingering in his mind. It was Anne. In the unconscious world of darkness he was remembering about Anne.
He met her for the first time in France. Her Father was general in French army. Jim met him at national museum. He was impressed by Jim and called him for a dinner. It was there Jim spoke to Anne for the first time. She was interested in photography and this passion pulled her towards Jim.. Anne’s elegance caught Jim and this flamboyance made him to opt a job in France. He avoided Sharon for Anne. In the meanwhile Sharon’s got a call from MIT for a secret project under American army. Jim let her go from his life, keeping Anne in mind. Anne’s father was killed in a battle where French army faced defeat from Russia. Anne was left alone. Sympathies turned into love. Jim stayed with her for several months in her house. Jim was interested in writing an article about American’s support for Britain. He left for Pearl Harbor where American army was stationed. He did not knew the danger waiting for him in America. Japanese flooded bombs on American navy base and death kissed him. He was hospitalized and it took two months for him to recover from physical illness and the trauma. His existence was not known to anyone including Sharon and his lady love Anne. After 6 months he went back to France in search of Anne, just to find that Anne was killed by Russians. There was no trace about her. He was depressed and went back to London. After two years he took his Passion for Photography and started writing many articles. On the other hand Sharon was searching Jim. She could not find him anywhere. After three years she learned that he was working for a Press. She came back from America for him. It was her love and affection which took Jim back to his normal world.
Jim was wandering in his unconscious world seeking for help. He had options which were filled with pain of departing from his love. It was very difficult to take decision. He would rather prefer death. Sometime its better to accept kiss of death than the pain from love.
P.S: ppl pls forgive me for this..I din know what to do during DB2...so i came up with a dumb story..
