"Ouch, what's this?", I screamed as she sat down on my lap to tease me.
"Oh, sorry", she apologized hiding a sheet of paper behind her.
"What are you hiding", I asked curiously.
"Nothing, ignore it", she continued, "OK, tell me if I leave you forever".
"I have many options and they are not as heavy as you. You would have killed me if you had sit on my lap for one more second", now I was teasing her.
"Well, sometimes your questions create fear in my mind", I became serious,"You know how much I love you?"
"Yes, I do", she confessed,"OK dear, we are getting late, I think we should leave now. Bye, take care".
"Bye, love you", I bid her adieu.
Then we didn't meet for about a month. And one day, I got a news which changed my life. She left me forever. I went to her home where her Mom gave me a note written by her daughter.
It read,"Dear, that day I was hiding my reports. I had cancer, last stage. I wanted to tell you but I couldn't. How could I? Dear, you used to call me your angel and see I've become one. Now I'm not heavy like before. Don't you know, the angels are weightless? Now you can use your options. Take care, love you".
The note felt heavier than her.
19 After Thoughts:
First, welcome. This has a weight to it, a heaviness. Like the subject.
And someone's loss is the heaviest of all.
Well written my friend.
hmm, the heart is heavy reading it. nice use of the words Deepak.
That was very sad.
Welcome Deepak, this is a sad, but well told story, my heart goes out to all concerned.
Heavy. Cancerous. I can so relate.
The only difference is that she is fine now.
