BREAKING NEWS.. After umpteen
hundred thousand lakh crore years of secrecy, the secrets of heaven have
finally been leaked. Secret cables of heaven have been made available to earth
which will be exclusively hosted by The
Original Poetry under its
segment HeavenLeaks,
thanks to a whistle-blower from heaven. I cannot divulge the name of
the whistle-blower, for you know what happen
to whistle-blowers once they get recognized. Finding a safe embassy to save him from God might prove to be a difficult prospect for us!
Meanwhile, I know that you are getting impatient to see the first
cable from heaven. After dithering over a lot of exciting and revealing
cables, I thought it will be apt to start with something from where all of us got started.
You guessed it right, we are going to get a peep into some of the
interesting conversations between Adam and Eve, the grandest father and mother
of all men and women. I have provided the narration for enriching your
experience further.
Well, I am not going to let you wait anymore. Here you go..
‘Adam’ Eve came running over to their large room in the heaven
which was full of white curtains hanging everywhere. Adam was standing near the
window, wearing a bright and long white gown, peering deep into the
otherworldly bliss of heaven. He was apparently lost, somewhere in the charming
and white mist floating freely in the atmosphere of heaven. The voice of Eve
served to distract his aesthetic exercise a little as he swiveled around to see
what Eve was up to.
‘Adam’ Eve said again as she reached close to him, gently placing
her right palm over his left shoulder. She looked beautiful in her knee length
pink frock.
‘Yes sweetheart’ smiled Adam. ‘What’s the matter?’
‘You are looking quite handsome today’ said Eve. ‘Good to see you
well-dressed.’
‘You know what’ said Adam. ‘I miss those days we spent on earth.’
‘Yes I know’ Eve said. ‘You always preferred being well-naked
than well-dressed.’
‘No, it’s not that' smiled Adam, blushing his way to bright red cheeks. 'I loved every single moment
spent there. I miss roaming around in the garden with you.’
‘What do you miss the most?’ asked Eve, also placing her left
palm on his left shoulder, coming even closer to him simultaneously.
‘The first kiss in the history of mankind’ said Adam. ‘That’s
what I cherish the most. It was something else, something never felt by anyone
before. Absolute bliss.’
‘Yes’ Eve peered deep into the blue eyes of Adam. ‘And it
resulted into the birth of love bug that continues to infect people till date’
smiled Eve. ‘But I ruined everything by eating the fruit of sin. Had God not
forgiven us, we might have landed in hell’ Eve said as the axis of her eyes
dropped; the smile of her face gave way to a pale shadow as sulkiness
took over. She withdrew her arms off him in sadness. It was evident that deep in her heart, she was still carrying the burden of her mistake.
‘We all do mistakes’ Adam held her by her cheeks, enveloping her
face with the palm of his hands as he looked into her eyes with an unflinching
stroke of love. ‘One mistake doesn’t make you a sinner’ said Adam. ‘And God
couldn’t have placed her into hell even if he wanted.’
‘Why not?’ asked Eve.
‘Hell wasn't there at that time. Probably it was under
construction’ smiled Adam, trying to blow away some dust from a blanket of pain that was too old to clean. ‘Why were you calling me by the way’ he said,
distracting the attention of Eve from the topic.
‘Yeah, I almost forgot.’ Eve's eyes lit up once again in
excitement.
‘What?’ Adam wondered what was it that made her forget her pain that quickly.
‘A new shopping mall has opened in heaven’ said Eve, beaming with
joy and enthusiasm like a kid.
‘You can't shop' Adam said. 'You know that your goodwill account was frozen by God after
the fruit incident.’
‘But not yours’ Eve smiled with a naughty twinkle in her eyes.
‘You have to spend some of your goodwill for shopping’ Eve insisted as she
grabbed him by his shoulders again.
‘But what about the budget?’ Adam withdrew his hands off her face
immediately. His goodwill account was in grave danger!
‘I am the lady’ said Eve. ‘So you don’t worry about the budget.
I’ll take care of that.’
‘But you have so many beautiful dresses. Why do you want to shop
again?’ Adam said, arching his eyebrows in wonder.
‘Actually I want to purchase wedding dresses for both of us.’
‘What!’ Adam was taken by his greatest surprise. ‘What are you
talking about?’
‘I was thinking that it is time we should get married.’ Eve said.
‘But why?’ Adam wondered. ‘Don’t you think we are a little late?
We have 7 billion living children roaming on earth, not to talk about our
children here in heaven’ said Adam. ‘Besides, I don’t quite like the concept of
marriage. It has given way to the concept of divorce over the period of time.
Marriage cannot unite two souls, nor divorce can separate them, it’s the love
that matters.’
‘I don’t know anything’ said Eve. ‘I want to marry you. That’s
it’ she insisted.
‘Okay’ Adam heaved a deep sigh. ‘But I will have to discuss it
with God. I can’t do anything without his agreement.’
‘Great’ Eve said as she flaunted a big smile, and hugged him
immediately. Adam just smiled, gently caressing her hairs with his fingers as
she folded in his arms, wondering how it would be like for the first man of
earth to become almost the last man to get married. He had to consult God
anyway, for God is the father of man, and not child as one of the sayings would
propagate.
Stay tuned for more revealing cables...
