Eastern Promises

Eastern Promises

A Story by Abishai100
"

A 'world-man' must return (hometown) for his Eastern (school) reunion and (perhaps) balance-act his dark-skies, for Boston's watch.

"
A 'hip' adaptation of that fun mod-classic (Hollywood), Grosse Pointe Blank (John Cusack). Enjoy!

Amlan Satan, prince of blood-diamonds and minerals-insurance 'defender' (with some Interpol relation), had decided to return hometown for his high-school reunion (New England), where his Eastern HS-sweetheart awaited him (Isha), hoping his newfound Catholic faith-conversion ('claim' on social media) was a sure-sign that he'd been waiting to embrace all the flowery/handshakes of modern Western (American) net-Romanticism (and sane!) life.



INTERPOL: Blood-diamond corruption today threatens the world-gem exchange(s) and makes 'rogue'/terror finance-woe (for all).



Isha was psyched to see him and hoped 'Prince Satan' was (now) ready to return from his prom-memory kept post-HS 'departure' for his incredible foray(s) into 'James Bond' life and even 'promised' her he'd been ready to get married and work on a great American novel about 'discovery' of Homeland (Boston) life catering to a newfound appreciation of net-beauty/magic of this Western 'environment' of treasured (social-media) marks (wow).



ISHA: I got you a 'fantastic' Stephen King novel to settle you, inspire you/me!
SATAN: Excellence; I might not 'reveal' my bank-box glass-heists for insurance.
ISHA: Wow...is that some kind of Western 'culture' paranoia parody-joke, Satan?
SATAN: This is (all) straight, Isha my sweet; indeed, I seek that 'deed' for life's reading.
ISHA: Alright (I think).



He wasn't lying. He was honestly seeking to reconcile with Isha whom he departed from after deciding to accept some post-grad Dartmouth/Interpol-relation mission-write(s) but was suddenly tracked by this IRA-ruin 'ghoul' who was sent to New England by one of Prince Satan's old-career 'nemeses' (for radish architecture).



ISHA: You killed someone at the Eastern reunion?
SATAN: This 'ghoul' came veiled as an alumnus and had to be disposed into ash.
ISHA: Is this another parody-joke, Satan, while we're (home) watching Oscars?
SATAN: Nah...regardless of my 'past' of Hellmouth(s), Isha, this is TV-magic (for me).
ISHA: Alright.



The moral of this "Western-culture" fable is (really) about the quality of handshakes for sanity drawn/wrought from this mod-Earth 'cauldron' of otherwise 'dangerous' moves in treasure-heat, intelligence veiled, life-sanity sought, and (perhaps) that American Dream of (eventually) discovered hometown (Boston!) margarine (for the heart).
