They called her the queen of tragedy. Just a slight quiver of her lips and the audience would burst into tears. She ruled every heart in the city. Except the one she wanted to win.
Like always, she peeped from behind the curtain. There he sat in the front row, looking as striking as ever. His fingers were entwined with mine. As her gaze met the diamond adorning my dainty finger, I knew something broke inside her. Two minutes later we applauded as the curtain rose. There she was, with a gun in her hand, as planned. Boom! It went off, as expected. Blood flooded the stage, not as rehearsed. The audience cried today, not for her performance but for the actor herself. The entire city went to her funeral. I saw him shed a tear at her coffin. She had finally managed to move his heart, but she wouldn’t know now, not ever.
I thought of true love as I bent over her face and whispered my apologies for switching the guns.
What a twist 😳

Oh my Goodness Dear Yamini The Ending
Of Your Short Story Does Indeed Question
What True Love is And Yes This Very Much
Reminds me of the Movie “The Greatest Showman”
With Hugh Jackman Playing the Role of the Circus Owner
As He Becomes Enthralled By A New Singing Woman By Her
Stellar Singing Talent His Eyes Drawn Into Her Like A Star Being
Sucked into A Black Hole This Way With Yes His Very Genuine
Loving Wife and Child in the Audience As She Takes Note of His
Fall In the Black
Hole With A Look
of Trepidation on Her Face
You Know My FRiEnD Love
Is Free With Wings When It Exists
And Is True And Sadly in Some Parts of
the World And According to Some Laws
Ruling Humans Some Humans Are allowed
to Take Ownership of the Bodies of Other Humans
Yet What Remains True and Real is the SPiRiT of HeART
SoUL If it Really Exists in the Human Who Is Owned This Way
Will Never Be Owned By Someone Else If The SoUL The SPiRiT
of HeART Does Fly Free ThiS WaY With Wings As True Love Free
And Yes True
Of Course Again
For the Human Who
Experiences no True Love
It May Not Matter to them one
Way or Another For the Wings
of Love Within They have No Way to
Give or Receive Yet You See in the Greatest
Showman Movie The Circus Owner And New
Talent Were Both Only Seeking Fame and Fortune More
And Sadly For Many Who Pursue only Those Two They Will
Never Be Satisfied With Enough in Life And So Ironically That
is the Name of The Song The Stellar Talent is Singing “Never Be Enough”
Yet of Course The Man’s Wife Was A Genuine Woman With Wings of Love
True So Of Course in this Case She Did Not Provide the New Talent A Gun
That Was Actually Loaded With Bullets to
Shoot Her Self Where ‘Blanks’ Were Expected
Instead in A Play of Suicide That Way in Your Story
With A Messy Twist of Fate Where Love is Only Driven
By Ownership And Not Provided Wings to Fly Free Yet Again
For Those Without The
SPiRiT HeART and
SoUL of LoVe the
Real Flame
With Wings
Within to Give Free
All That’s Left In Life to Do
May Be to Take Ownership
of Someone’s Body Until They
Get Tired of Using it Like a New Car
Just Ready to Trade it In on a New Model
Leaving it Behind until that New Car Gets Used too
Love is Green
My FRiEnD When
True Love Always
Blooms And Even
Remains When the Colors Fade…
It’s Rather Quiet Some Days Yet
Remains So Very Warm For Real
It What’s You Feel Whenever You
Are in A Room With Love And Yes
Again When True LoVE Remains..:)

I haven’t watched the movie but it does seem interesting. Love is a complex emotion that makes people react differently. Whether or not we take the wrong path to get our love is our own choice.
