These Walls

These walls have seen plenty. It could be its own history for the amount of scenes, emotions, behaviors and dark secrets it can bear witness towards. How hard must it be to be able to learn more about the dwellers who stay even for  short while, a single day is enough to learn what the heart bears, to see fully raw character being displayed and to burn in the happiness that emits within.  Families on vacation were very entertaining, a lot of hustle and bustle in the house, the kitchen always fresh with the smell of food and pattering footsteps running all over the wooden floors while giggles and yells rang around. Newly weds or couples were full of neediness for each other, mostly spending the entire day making love in any part of the little escape they could, lost in their little world of preparation to be with each other forever or just to stop the mind from thinking of day to day activities and enjoy a peaceful company with temptations. Group of friends were pretty simple, all they need is music and drinks then they hardly realize how many days pass by half forgetting what was done or where they are.

One day though, these walls did see something different. Through the series of innocent laughter and desired filled passion, it actually came across a peculiar combination of sorrow and solitude. While most of the visitors come in pairs or in groups, this particular one came alone. All alone with but a single suitcase that held necessary clothing, there was about 3 books she also placed on the coffee table of her temporary bedroom. But what poked its curiosity further was the picture frame she brought out and placed next to the empty pillow of her bed. It held a photo of a man, smiling brightly, his eyes twinkling from the sun's beams that probably interfered with the camera's flash. Within her 2 weeks stay, she sometimes hugged that picture frame crying her eyes out till she fell asleep. Most of the day she spent wandering the magnificent house, taking a tan by the beach and going for long swims or wasting away the evening in the wine cellar just feasting on the exotic winery. In those 2 weeks these walls wanted to know more, why did she come alone? Why was she filled with sorrow? and yet there was an unexplainable peace about how she held herself.

For many years they wondered about that one visitor until another fine day when she returned with a small child. The boy had similar hair color of the man in the photograph, as well as eyes that twinkled when she tickled him with laughter. This time though, she was happier, more accepting and this was probably the most memorable visit these walls has ever witnessed.

Writer's Note:

I have been struggling in finding the right -everything- for capturing this scene. This is Pandora Resort~Namaste's special suite which is available for rent for a day. Maybe you want to surprise your beloved on their birthday? Or maybe you just want to give your family a weekend vacation? this exotic escape corner within the exotic island is already furnished, so all you need is yourself and good company. 

Scarlet Creative has one of the most unique buildings in Second Life. It is hard to resist most of their creations. We used 3 builds that we fell in love with and that we thought was perfect for Pandora Resort. The color scheme had to be modded a little bit to make it blend all the more and this is the result, a private home, hidden in the outskirts of ruins and the sea. ;)
