Seventeen years later.....

"Stella,did you bring coffee?He will be here any moment now!",yelled Anny.

Stella was working as a bartender in McCabby;s new hotel and bar. Ever since Berta's sudden demise,McCabby offered her a job and took care of her. In the morning, she read books and at night, she worked in the bar,to earn her bread.

She saw travellers coming from the city. They stayed there to indulge in the over-whelming experience of living in a natural-therapeutic location,far away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Some of them had planned a trip whilst others visited that place to seek life-saving drugs and herbs. Whoever came there was bound to get inundated with the out-of-the-world smell of the lavenders, chrysanthemum and rose strewn over the eighty yards of land that it had to offer.

Some of them stood with Stella to click a snap or to feign praises of the old village. After their journey was over, they strode across the horizon and were never to be seen again;thus splintering her dreams forever.

And that made her cast her covetous ,yet sullen eyes upon the "domes" that she used to call them, once upon a time.

Albeit,that day was unusual...

Recently,the whole village was abuzz with the news of a very strange man coming to visit the village.The man had apparently traversed across twenty four borders and ten counties ,all alone. Now he chose Borecava village to visit.

"Stella,take the drink and the food and serve them on his table right across the bed in his room.Room no 303"

"Yes,Miss Anny,I will serve him right away"

Last night,she was tormented by sleep.She popped up a few sedatives,but they did not show their effect on time.And now she was suddenly tormented by their full-blown effect.

Staggering with the tray of drinks and three dishes ,she stomped up the stairs,as she felts groggy and swamped with work on that day. Worn out as she was, she redundantly cursed herself and her fate for not going beyond those enigmatic hills, that awaited her.

She knocked on the door,which was left ajar.The door creaked open.

"Mr......."

And that was the most breathtaking view ever........
