The Stranger and The Prospective Boyfriend

Tenson and Fiona held hands . The whirlwind swept past them and the excitement of just being two of them grew. Fiona for the first time looked at Tenson in his eyes at a closer range . There was something leaping up and down in her heart the moment their eyes met . She saw that Tenson was not only handsome, he was becoming a man with masculine features of small beards at the end of his lower chin. ' So what is your favourite thing to do when you are free .' Fiona asked . Tenson touched her shoulder tenderly and smiled , " When I am free I like talking to nature . I have a language of the universe ." Fiona's face looked surprised , " What is language of the universe ? " Tenson brushed something off Fiona's hair then said , " The language of the universe means talking to animals we tame and talking to certain birds that feel free in our company . " Before Fiona asked he pulled her hand , " let me show you ." They walked past the bushes and walked past the stream until the view of cattle grazing on the hill was nearer . " You see those animals , I can say one thing to them and they will obey , let's get closer .' When they reached where the cattle were grazing , Tenson sang a song in a very thick masculine voice . The song was not amusing at all to Fiona . Fiona laughed the way Tenson sang . As he continued singing Fiona saw cattle coming from different directions to where they stood. The cattle made a ring fence around them . Fiona was perplexed . Tenson continued singing until the cattle were within touching distance around them . " Will they not hurt us ? ' Fiona squeezed herself to Tenson with fear . Tenson said , " They like this song, do you want the birds to join us as well ? " Fiona nodded . Tenson sang a different song. This one was better sang than the previous . He hummed the tune causing Fiona to smile . It was getting darker and darker . The birds made creaking and twittering sounds as they descended into Tenson's feet. Many birds flew into the sky and followed the sound of Tenson's song . Fiona looked at Tenson , " Tenson are you a magician ? ' Tenson smiled , " No , Fiona , am a follower of the universe . I was taught by one man who I met on the road one day . The man said every thing living comes from one family of the creator of the universe . You have to enter into the birds mind and feel like them and live amongst them for them to understand your song ." " I have to get home , my mum is going to be angry if I am late . " Fiona said . Tenson looked at her and he saw it . The beauty of Fiona was glittering into his heart . The moment he held her hand to walk her home he felt something different . In between them as they walked there was huge silence . Each of them had fear and afraid to talk about their love . " I want you tomorow to show me another talent like today ." " Right ," Tenson said . As they neared Fiona's home their hands didn't want to let it go . They stood by the tree frozen and speechless . No one moved an inch . Words lost . Fiona chewing pieces of grass . Tenson looking away playing with leaves . Stories ran out of their heads . Suddenly a man with white shiny hairs appeared in front of them . The man said , ' I guess both of you know me by now . " Fiona was the first to scream , " Mr Zina Zina , the man who showed me where Tenson was ." Tenson didn't want Fiona to know that it was Mr Zina Zina who taught him how to sing a song and attract animals and birds . The white shiny hairs were brightened. " Right , let's get down to the bottom of the matter . You are both afraid to say you love each other , am I right ? " There was a silence of guilty between Fiona and Tenson . The strange man Mr Zina continued , " The thing about love and happiness is , unless you say it , you may miss the boat . If you Tenson cannot tell Fiona , Fiona may end up in the hands of wrong boys , would you like it ? " Tenson shook his head protesting. He turned to Fiona , " If you Fiona , having felt in your heart his love , can pretend you don't love him and Tenson ends up with someone else , would you like it ? ' Fiona shrugged her shoulders . The strange man.pulled them together , " the language of the universe says you have a duty to express your love with no regrets and if you do the opposite you will suffer stress and regrets the rest of your lives . Now I live you with freedom to do what you want . " Suddenly the man with white shiny hairs disappeared . Fiona and Tenson were left speechless as Fiona saw her mother approaching .
