Hayat was observing how people face their fears to experience the thrill they gain in return. This fascinated her greatly, and she decided to conquer her fears as well. She grabbed a pencil and a small pocket diary to note down her fears to overcome and experience the thrill that she’ll get afterwards. Day after day, her diary remained blank, after innumerable sleepless nights she wasted to figure out any creature or emotion she fears but all in vain. She eventually gave up.
One day, she was going for an event wearing an expensive dress which grabbed everyone’s attention as always. A very handsome creature came near to her. She was also infatuated with him…
“Isn’t it too noisy here?” said Harry
“Obviously it’s an event” replied Hayat
“Would you mind if I ask you to move to somewhere silent?”
“Why? It’s so good here”
“Somewhere close to nature”
Hearing the word “nature” couldn’t make her resist anymore, she agreed. They went to a forest, a very dense and dark forest.
“I personally like forests but isn’t it too dark to hangout here?”
“Do you fear dark?”
“I don’t fear anything its just… complete darkness makes me uncomfortable”
“Walking with a man around, you don’t need to fear anything”
He held her hand and they sat under a dense tree. He made her count stars and enjoys the cold breezes. Hayat was becoming comfortable with the atmosphere but with his company around it was just different.
“I couldn’t figure out what’s this emotion, restlessness, heavy breathes, my brain could clearly hear the sound of pumping of my heart….it’s a kind of attachment or fear, I don’t know”
He slowly moved towards her,
“I knew it was making me uncomfortable but I let him”
He kissed her but ultimately ripped off her clothes, she clenched her fist to the ground and collected all the sharp pebbles, mud and broken plants to prick into his face to blind his eyes but his hold was too strong. She continued to strike his face till it began to bleed but couldn’t diminish his lust for her. Her attempts to escape caused her back bleed by thorns, dry plants and sharp pebbles.
Far from woods, a howling of bear was heard. Soon his howling became louder which distracted Harry. He left her and ran. The dark giant bear came, saw her body naked, bleeding from her back. She didn’t fear him, moved closer and stretched her arms like Jesus.
“Come and eat me, for sure it would hurt less”
Eyes of bear became watery to see her like this. He left her and ran towards Harry. He definitely caught him and took him in front of Hayat. She got frightened to see Harry again even if he was in the grip of a wild bear. That was the moment she realized the feeling of fear. The bear killed Harry. But she was still scratching her heels trying to bury herself inside a tree even after knowing he’s dead. The bear ate him in front of her.
“I don’t wanna face my fears I don’t wanna overcome it. I don’t wanna go back”, screaming Hayat
The bear plucked big leaves of banana tree and made her a dress to cover up. She wasn’t in her senses. The bear took her with him. From where she started writing books, no one knew from where she got them published but she raised awareness to make every woman to fear men more than anything in their world.
One day, wearing her tree costume, a critic found her and asked for short interview where she was asked, “what if men isn’t so bad what if men are your savior? They are made to protect women. You cannot criticize entire community over one incident. Mishaps happens with everyone”
“Men are women’s savior they are made to protect us…. Indeed but protect from? Animals? Birds? Insects? These creatures have clear nature everyone aware of. They attack directly to either kill you or eat you not by making you fool or tricked to fulfill lust and then throw you alive to survive your breathes without saying a word to anyone in order to save your honor because a fucked women is a green card for every man to call her whore to fuck her even more. Men protect us from whom? The answer is “other men!” if the males aren’t around from whom women would be needing protection?”
The black bear came howling, everyone was running away, Hayat held the critic’s hand firmly, he was begging for her mercy!
“I could ask my dark friend to eat all of your community at once. But you’re men you never play fair, you’ll shoot him instead I grant you mercy because you’re innocent but so I was! Mind it!”
She sat on bear’s lap and left towards the woods.
