INSANE ME!
Christiana’s point of view Am I thinking too much? No, I don’t think so. It is just I am unable to decipher things. Yes. “What did he want to say? It was pretty clear from his face that there was something he wanted to say. Yes. I could feel that. But what was it?” After doing a few of the chores, I sat on Tiger’s couch, staring at him. Expecting he would exhibit then. But all in vain. Nevertheless, I thought of initiating the conversation myself. “Huh!” “Tiger!” I called Tiger, finally.“Christiana!” Amazed. I was utterly amazed when I heard Tiger calling me at the very moment when I called him. We paused for a while whilst locking eyes and got engrossed in each other. Those few minutes were nothing less than heaven. Those eyes! Angelic eyes. Gleam. Dazzling. Dazzling eyes glistened in the light and were a real show-stopper. Ironical. Quite Ironical. Jesus! Oh, my god. I grinned.“Did you just?” Surprised. Quite surprised. I was surprised by what took place. Unusual.“Yes, d

MORE THAN ONE
Christiana’s point of view What should I be doing? Should I just consider him, just because he requested me to be present alongside him during the event? Or should I just skip the thought of going there, keeping the recent escapades on my mind? Tough job! Very. Very. Very. I should forget everything and focus on the present. If not personal, I should contemplate about things through the lens of professionalism. Yes. I need to go. No matter what, I need to be present there. I just cannot let him down. Just because of me his image will be hampered. And I cannot afford to do so. “There are so many things I should be doing right now other than thinking about the past. What should I be doing? Showering. Changing. Preparing for all the people who will be there for the next two hours. Just for Tiger.” I muttered. “I need to take a quick shower,” I said whilst heading towards the washroom. . .. . More Than One She was there. Right there with him. Right there, standing in the studio,

WELL IT ALL STARTED WITH THAT!
Christiana’s point of view Well, it all started with that. The night was utterly bright, especially so as to blind the eyes temporarily. In California, Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort And Spa. In the south corner, luxurious cars assembled making obvious the presence of talked about personality. A flock of reputed reporters, cinematographer, thronged up in the way holding the necessary equipment – the cameras, mic, and …. That evening Tiger had organized a party cum event at the hotel, for launching his new product – Tessa Di perfum, that happened to be a brand new perfume under his brand – Kelvin. He had invited the business tycoons of Burbank to attend the event. Everyone was aware of the event beforehand except me. I got to know about the event few hours back the kick start. “Hey!” Tiger spoke while covering the distance between the two of us, hitting his knees with the table next to us, and eventually he slipped and fell over me. He was on top of me, measuring my length.

THE BURBANK PUB.
Christiana’s point of viewTHE BURBANK PUB.Life is strange.You rarely do know when you will land where and how. Similarly, I did not know that minutes back or say an hour ago.I had no idea how I went from working at the office for hours that morning to an appointment at the salon that afternoon, to visit the studio – Tiger’s studio, to get the pictures of the event, to walking into a bar for the first time in my life – THE BURBANK PUB.First time. Yes. Probably the first time. I had never been to the bar before. Well, it was a local bar located in the heart of Burbank.THE BURBANK PUB.However, I was too embarrassed. I had never been to a bar before, but I was pretty sure that I could tell by my hesitation at the door. I didn’t know what to expect when I walked in because of the awkwardness and completely different surroundings.I was more than twenty-one then, so did not have any issue entering the bar. I reminded myself of that and shook my head, and kept an eye on the guard outs

WRATH OFTEN CONSUMES WHAT GOODNESS HUSBANDS
Christiana’s point of viewHe spoke.Probably he did.“So, all good now?” Tiger asked me in concern. Nevertheless, I failed to pay heed to him. I didn’t do that purposely. The situation took the major part of my psyche. The escapades of the night had occupied my mind. Jesus. Help your child.“Christiana. Christiana. Christiana…” Tiger called me a number of times, only to get no response from my side. I could barely sense what was happening around me.I did not reply.I did not reply because I was lost.Lost and engrossed in my own thoughts.I took a long breath, to gain my senses...After few minutes.I glanced thoroughly in the room, no one was there. “Was I dreaming? Or he was in real here?” I muttered.“Where is he?” I search for Tiger. “Ah!” I exclaimed while shifting my glance here and there in the room. Tiger wasn’t there.“Ouch!” I got hurt. I collided with the bed – king-size bed of Tiger. While trying to get up.Hit. Hit. Hit.Damn! That shit man. How dare he? “That goddam

PENNING DOWN!
Christiana’s point of viewRomantic love?Companionate love?Or both!What is it exactly? I know not! How do I describe our bond, feelings – mutual feelings?No!Not at allThe life which I was living then with Tiger had intimacy, passion but lacked commitment. Or should I say there was a combination of intimacy and commitment without passion. “Ah! So, difficult to put in words.”Lacked commitment as ours wasn’t a sacred marriage, instead it was for a fixed term. At the same time, it lacked passion too, on the flip side intimacy was the constant variable. Love??? “Hahaha!” I laughed satirically.No. no. no.“By the way, why am I reflecting so much. There’s no love, no love! Can’t be also.”Whatever Tiger did was out humanity and concern. Nothing more than that. If there was something else, then it has to be duties/responsibilities. Whatever he did for me ever since the marriage, it was mostly due to that. Harsh reality! But I had to accept that.“Huh!” I pondered the questions which

WE BELONG TO THE SAME LINEAGE!
Tiger’s point of view“Ama? Is this a joke?” I spoke with one of my employees. “Want the results improving. Enough of shit. You people really think this will work out? Get yourselves checked. Like seriously. I guess all these months of work and training turned out to be useless.” I added further while going through the report and work.Huh!“KELVIN is not just a name or brand rather it is a revolution. It’s a family lineage. We belong to the same lineage. Mind you when I say ‘we’ that means we.” The meeting was to be held in an hour. Everything was to be done by then. I thoroughly glanced over everything. But no!Meeting – there was a meeting to take place in an hour. Business tycoons from United Kingdom were to visit. I did not want anything to go wrong. The current deal then was very important for me. Especially after the successful launch of our brand-new perfume ‘Kelvin.’ Appreciated. There was nothing to be appreciated.“Sir, we tried to make the presentation and report keeping

UNEARTHLY!
Tiger’s point of viewUnearthly! Utterly unearthly.Eerie. Uncanny. Mysteriously strange.“Ah! I just cannot process this oddness. What is she up to?” I muttered to myself while peeking through twitched curtains. I squized at Christiana.Hurriedly!Heedlessly. Impetuously. ImpulsivelyAnd what not.While ruminating on her activities, I sat in the chair next to her. “Why! What is the hurry all about? What is making her do so? Quite difficult to get her.” I muttered whilst assessing Christiana’s strange behavior. I call her insane soul most of the time. That does not mean, I mean that. But mostly she proves me right. I mean just look at her now, she is crazy. The way she is having the breakfast… Huh!“Is she hungry?”Famishing. Starving.My mansion has enough food. At least the whole stuff out there in the kitchen and store is enough to feed for a month. “Huh!” Then why is she acting this way.“Is she that hungry that she can eat a horse?” I mumbled. I was sitting next to her, but di

I FEARED THE WORST
Christiana’s point of view“Ah! What a lovely day.” I muttered whilst jumping out of the bed, flitted to the Italian window and tossed it open.I was awakened to the early risers chirping. The quivering sounds of their wings lurched into my ears like a harmony. “Ah!” I took a deep breath. The city’s fresh air filled in my body. It was beautiful springtime morning in Burbank, California. I looked at the sunlight that was already squinting through the curtains.The just-risen sun shone softly on the city streets, bringing with it a flurry of early morning activity. The birds kept chirping, and the breeze was cool. Everything out there was full of beauty and magic, filled with the promise of a new beginning. The striking beauty outside was nothing less than a picturesque reverie to my eyes.“Let’s start, it’s getting late.” I muttered while glancing at the clock.I eagerly waited for that day. For I would get to showcase my talent before everyone. People would get to know me, and my ta
