Hanoue (Part V)

After more Than four weeks at seas, the voyage had ended, and Venuciella the ship, anchored at Port Neptune in Cairo, a great city in Egypt formally known as the City of the gods. At the embankment, the Queen, Hanoue's mother and her entourage were already there waiting for her arrival. Captain Henrhphost was not very happy of the thought of the final goodbye. He had developed a special bond with Hanoue, and it was hard to let her go. Hanoue was aware that Venuciella had reached her final destination, and was brushing her hair when she heard Captain Henrhphost knocking at her cabin's door. She let him in, and both of them stood there in the little cabin in silence. Hanoue broke down as she reached for him, and embedded her face in his chest. Captain Henrhphost placed his strong arms around Hanoue exotic waste, and she lifted up her head, responding to his embrace, while the Captain placed his lips on Hanoue's and kissed her passionately. Hanoue's heart was beating very fast as she felt a pleasurable wave of currents, running through her abdomen. It felt like they were embracing for an eternity, while it only lasted a few seconds. Captain Henrhphost let go of the embrace, and placed an affectionate fatherly kiss on Hanoue's forehead, and then left the cabin without looking back at her.

Hanoue (Part IV)

Captain Henrhphost, was determined to help Hanoue. He arranged with the crews for her to move to a more comfortable cabin next to his; and for her to eat her meal at his table. The voyage was almost over, and the sea was calm. Hanoue felt better, and was looking forward to be reunited with her father. She stayed in her cabin and spent her time reading the books that captain Henrhphost has provided for her. Suddenly, she heard a knock, when she opened the door, there was a lad standing there with a note in his hands. He handled the note to her, and she took it while thanking him. The lad stayed there looking at her, and she realized he was waiting for a tip. Hanoue didn't have money,but she took an earring out of her left ear and gave it to him. The Lad thanked her and left. Now Hanoue was left by herself with the note in her hand; she unfolded it delicately and it read: "Dear Hanoue; Tomorrow around this time, we will arrive to our final destination in Egypt; I had sent two falcons with a message to pharaoh's palace notifying your mother of your arrival. They will be expecting you. I also want to thank you for your companionship through out the voyage. You are an exceptional person, and good luck toward your new journey. Very Truly Yours; Captain Henrhphost." Hanoue held the note and continued to look at it in a dream like gaze; and then she pulled herself together, folded it back, and placed it on the little night table next to her bed. Hanoue had mixed emotions about her situation, she was excited, sad, happy, and confused. She had no recollection of her mother in her memory, because she left her when was still an infant. Her nannies had told her that the Queen, her mother, was very beautiful and intelligent. In her father's library, there was a painting of her, and Hanoue had discovered that her mother was also very charming. She sat on a chair at the bottom end of the bed, and started to remember her children and her husband in Rome.She knew she was happy to be reunited with her mother, then her father and Prince Shogulu, but what about the life she had in Rome with her husband and children? she stayed puzzled, unable to answer the question. Exhausted from her thoughts about the past, the present and the future, Hanoue collapsed and fell asleep on the chair.

Back in Rome, the children were in distress, because they missed their mother. Hanoue had two girls and two boys with Aboniby her husband. Aboniby himself, was broken hearted over the lost of his beloved Hanoue. He found comfort in his music and his writing; and he was determined more than ever to be the best father for these kids. Life had to continue to move on forward, because he had many responsibilities: his children, Caesar, his music and his writing. General Kalomlahkuff had established himself in Rome, he had a meager monthly income from Caesar in return to supply information about military strategies in the Troy's Army. Rome and Troy had a long feudal history between them. Troy was well known as the only country, that was able to defeat the Roman Army.

Hanoue (Part III)

Hanoue was embarked on the ship to Egypt, and General Kalomlahkuff remained in Rome. He decided to live in Rome as a dissident, while protesting king Strogforth rulership. Hanoue's husband was devastated about the lost of his wife. The Roman soldiers' reports indicated that, his wife was probably rubbed and killed by some prisoners, who had escaped on the night she was missing. His older sister moved with him to help take care of the children. Since Hanoue was well known in Rome, the Roman people mourned her for seven days. General Kalomlahkuff had established himself comfortably in Rome, after asking Caesar for a political asylum. It was granted to him with great pleasure, because Rome and Troy had always been competitive enemies, therefore they saw the opportunity to use the General a a spy against Troy.

The voyage in the sea started very calm for Hanoue. After the first week at sea, they encountered a terrible storm. Part of their embargo had to be thrown at sea to reduce the burden on the ship. Finally after a day and a night through the storm, the ocean was calm again. Hanoue was completely disoriented, and started to miss her children. She left her cabin, went on the upper deck, and asked to see the Captain. She was lead to the compartment of the ship where she was allowed to meet him. He rose from his seat behind his desk at the sight of Hanoue. He dismissed the crew members who came with her, and asked her to sit down. Hanoue opened her mouth to begin to talk, but he signaled her to remain silence, while he poured some wine in a glass for her. He then handled the wine glass to her. She drank it, while both remained silent and looking at each other. The Captain finally broke the ice, and asked Hanoue for her name. She told it to him. Hanoue also told him about the kidnapping and how she was forced to embark the ship. She was directed blind folded to a cabin in the lower deck, and then sedated through her nostrils with ether. She was not aware about the passing of the time either, when she told the captain she wanted to return to her children and her husband. He told her, they had been at sea for three weeks now, and in another week they will reach Cairo. Hanoue was devastated, and revealed her true identity to the Captain.

He asked her why she never asked the Roman authority for help. She did ask, but she was sold as a slave to them, therefore she was not allowed to return home to her father. The captain of the ship had compassion for Hanoue, he approached her,bent slightly over, and touched her face, Hanoue looked up as the Captain placed his lips on top of hers. She started to tremble, because she was never kissed like this before.

Hanoue (Part II)

Hanoue had a new life in Rome. Her psychic ability had contributed to her success, because she had helped many people there. One of Caesar's daughter had heard about Hanoue accuracy in predicting the future, and she sent for her to come to the palace. She became one of Hanoue's regular clients. In politic, mostly in those days, a person had to have eyes on the back of his or her head. Hanoue wanted just to help her fellows human beings, but the people showered her with gifts and money. She became a very rich woman, and had a comfortable life with her husband and her children. Hanoue was a very sad person though, and sometimes her husband caught her crying. She missed her beloved father very much, but kept the nostalgia in her heart. She learn how to play the harp, and was able to express her melancholy in her music.

The wicked general who was named Kalomlahkuff was furious to learn about Hanoue's good fortune. He planned to go to Rome and bring Hanoue back to Troy. Hanoue's Father had grew old prematurely, over the grief of losing his only daughter. He never gave up the search of looking for her. Hanoue was his life, because the Queen, Hanoue's mother had left him right after Hanoue's birth. She was not happy married to King Strogforth, therefore she went back to Egypt to her father, who was a Pharaoh there. Hanoue was always the king's comfort, since his beloved Queen had left. Prince Shogunuh who had came from the Orient to marry Hanoue, never returned home. He was the primary advocate in the search for Hanoue. General Kalomlahkuff was never noticed as a suspect, because he was very crafty in concealing the truth.
He had retired from the King's Army, but remained the king's body guard and his military adviser. The anguish he had placed over himself, and over everybody had caused his heart to fail. In order to leave Troy, he went to the king under a false pretext, that he had to seek a surgeon abroad for his heart. The king granted him permission to leave Troy.

General Kalomlahkuff arrived in Rome in disguise, and he was able to enter the City without being recognized. It was not hard at all to find Hanoue because his sources had already revealed to him, all the information he needed. He learned first hand, about Hanoue's schedules; and watched for the occasion to approach her, when she was alone. Finally, one silent evening, Hanoue was returning from one of her regular trip to the palace, she had just finished a seance with Caesar's daughter. The general and four other hired men approached her,they grabbed her and cover her mouth, while carrying her away. They took her to Port Neptune, where a ship was ready to embark to Egypt.

Troy was a euphoric city in North Africa. It was well known for its reputation to defeat the Roman's Army. King Strogforth, in the fourth Century before our Era, reigned over Troy. He was a just king,and his people loved him. He had a daughter named Hanoue; he loved and cherished her. He was also very protective of her, and hid her from everybody. Hanoue was smart,intelligent and charismatic. There was a young Prince from the Orients, who was inspired in a dream to go to Troy, and search for Hanoue.

I cried when you left me

I cried when you left me.
You have hurt and humiliated me.
My only crime was loving you.
you said it, I gave myself completely to you.
You have trampled on me.
I beg you not to kill me, you did not listen.
You kill me! You kill me!
My only crime was loving you!
You have hurt me!
You threw stones at me,
and made everybody stone me.
Still I love you.

The truth

What is the truth? Is it important to tell the truth? What are the benefits and the risks of telling the truth? These questions have been on my mind lately. I think the truth is very important, even though you can hurt someone or many people by telling it sometimes. Obstructing the truth can only lead to more troubles, because you still hurt many people by hiding it. I don't think it's right to create confusion in people's mind. I can understand why some people are afraid of the truth; it is powerful, and telling it can change people lives. If you and people around you are comfortable living by hiding the truth, revealing it might change things. Usually only the oppressed asks for the truth to come to light, the oppressors of course would hide it. The sad thing is most people died without knowing the truth about themselves or others. I think life can be improved for human beings in general, if we take the giant step, and tell the truth, nothing but the truth.

Love can be beautiful

I remember the time you came into my life; you show me "love" can be beautiful. You taught me many things. Now, I asked myself why did I ever left you. You were supposed to be the only one in my life. I was lacked of wisdom and understanding, but with you it was so easy to discern life. The blame is on me, because you are a good person. As for me, I would like to thank you for everything you have done for me. Only one thing I ask God for you, is for you to continue to prosper and to remain who you are. This life is hard, and it is not easy to find someone, who is not projecting his or her pain on another person. I want to preserve and protect you. Please do not destroy who you are. You are unique. I know it is a struggle, and a very difficult one, but you can do it. God bless you!

A good day

It has been a very good day.
Peace and harmony reign today.
My best friend had a perfect birthday.
She said she will be a star someday.
A shooting star, she will be on Broadway!
She remembers the rides on the trailway.
She said to herself, those were the good old days!
Now she raises up her rainbow to the sun ray
She is ready to be a star on Brodway.

Time is better now.

Time is better now, and we are going to make it as a human race. Some of us are angry, because of the pain we give to each other, but anger is not the answer to our problems. Since I am not a Psycho-Analyst, human behavior is not my area of specialty. My opinion in this matter though, we need to be fair and just to each other. I think injustice and lies are the root of all the problems we are facing now in this planet. We are in the 21st century of our era, and we need to go forward. If we can't forget the past, we don't have to use it as a weapon either to give each other pain. Some people believe slavery can't be annihilated; I think they are wrong. We are in this planet for a better reason, than to have the right to own each other.
