Sunsets and memories

She had called him about ten times in the last twenty minutes.  But, what could she do, she had loved him and she felt so small. She felt like a speck of dust that he had wiped off with a rose detergent and a new but torn cloth; because that is how he has made her feel. He had made her feel like a rose, only to realize later that she had also been a thorn in his path.He had made her feel fresh, but also like some torn cloth that could be replaced.  She had just been another girl to him and while she knew that, she still dreamt about watching the sun  drown in the reddish sky at twilight with him beside her.  All of it was in vain. He had never seen her the way she saw him. She was no one special. There were five others whom he talked to the way he used to talk to her.

But the young son had one problem. He was affected by a contagious toxic gas that was non-disposable. This gas made people go insane and would twist their personas entirely. This realisation of the prince being sick, came when the prince killed his own noble father  out of insanity. Ministers had all gathered their wits to come to a solution to dispose off this toxic effluent, but alas, they had failed. So, as generations changed, the rule of the royalty ended and Palati became a democracy. But, the gas has spread heaps and bounds by this time. In fact, there was a man who lost his mind to the extent that he made a bomb, and a bomb had never been seen before in Palati.
