Drops of Love

Drops of love...

Enigmatic and Hamish, the Shakespearean play of Romeo and Juliet, and equally heart touching is the story of Hydrappus and Oxilandria. Hydrappus- brave and just, the prince of Elementra empire reigned absolute and unchallenged except their rival, the Gassasians famed for their benevolent yet lethal Princess Oxilandria.

One fine day, a dance party was hosted by King Solar in the Cosmos Ballroom.That was the first tryst between the prince and the princess. Spotting each other from the ends of the room they knew that there was more than what met the eye. In a game organized later by the monarch, the men were blindfolded and had to identify their partners. For Hydrappus when blindfolded, he clasped the hand of Oxilandria, it was the moment when they knew that they were made for each other.Clandestinely, they made many endeavors to unite, but the forces of nature kept them apart. Knowing fairly well that they could not be united in that world, they eloped to the universe in search of sanctuary.

Leaving many stars behind, they finally reached the Solar System. Seeing nine planets queued up as their new home, they were full of euphoria. Frivolous of their approach Planet Hydraguim erected large walls and their entry was restricted.They moved towards Venus, but the searing heat was too much to bear. With shattered hopes, they moved to Earth.All they saw was a brown ball with lots to offer. So they decided to settle there.Mother Earth had a problem in spelling out their names and thus she renamed Hydrappus as Hydrogen and Oxilandria as Oxygen. Later, they got married and the couple popularly came to be known as ‘Aqua’.

They had lots of fun moving up and down in the air in a cycle and even colonized seventy percent of the Earth! The other planets stood in awe and envy of the world which came to be known as “The Blue Planet”
