“Imagine that you have only six months to live; what do you do?”

“Then I will live my life to the fullest, checking off things from my bucket list, without thinking what others might say,” Mia replied as blindly as she was posed with the question.

“Let’s do that then!” exclaimed Sherry.

“Why such a hurry?” Mia questioned without lifting her eyes off from the phone.

“Because today my doctor told that in less than six months the tumor in my brain is going to win my life completely.”

“Really? You do know that we are not going to happen, don’t you Dave?”, smiled Kate teasing him.

“I know. But I wish I didn’t!” sighed Dave.

Riya ran down the stairs as the doorbell kept ringing.

“Didn’t I tell that I will open the door” She barked at Mia, who was clearly happy to open the door on time.

“Losers weepers” mocked Mia.

The trick-or-treat voices were drowned in the sibling fight leaving the kids perplexed.

She heard the doorknob rattling. She peeped through the adjacent window and there wasn’t anyone. But the doorknob still rattled adding to her nervousness.

It was just like the time she walked back home from work. She was sure that someone was following her, but no one to be seen. And this time, she wasn’t going to tell her suspicions with anyone else just to be called as paranoid.

And she went back to the bed with the unsettled feeling settling in her mind.

She didn’t know, my eternal love for her,

Kept my distance,

Under the illusion that it was for the best!

Years later, a reunion brought us together

Uniting us forever!

Circle of Life you may call it!

Missed all those years

We could’ve been together,

Had I conveyed my love!

Though the house on the other side of the street looked just like any other house, Rachel always felt that something was off. The windows were never opened. Neither were the doors.

It was like that since the tragic death of the previous owners when the house went in possession of one of their distant relative, who liked to keep his distance with the rest of the world.

Rachel was terrified when she accidently caught a glimpse of a withered figure from her porch when the doors were seen opened for the first time.

Something is really off, she thought!!

“Dear god, here is the 100th coin, as I promised. You do know how hard it was for me to get 100 coins! Of course, you know, that’s what my mom told, that God knows everything.”

“Now can you please give me my mom back? I need her more than I need you, pretty please,” tears rolled out of those little hopeful eyes.

He stared out the window lost in thoughts. Dinner was all set on the table, as usual. By this time usually she calls out, “Is dinner ready, Dave?” He knew that today there won’t be any such voice finding way to his ears. He knew that the dinner table was waiting for her, in vain.

But he had to do it. If he didn’t then it means he is admitting to himself that she is gone. Setting up dinner for her was his desperate attempt to hold on to the last of memories. He knows, she is not coming back.

A fresh start, that’s what they agreed upon after she found out about his extra marital affair. Every time he cheats on her, he showers her with more love and that was her clue. Finally, she told him that she is not going to put up with his treacheries, and he agreed with her; he gave her his word that he will put an end to the philanderings and will stay true to her.

And he is keeping his word; she knows that because there is no overflowing love, infact there is not even a drop of love which made her realize that by making him promise to stay true to her, she did wrong to both of them – an unhappy man and wife is all that remained as the by-product of that promise.

So she decided to set them both free, by letting him go and starting fresh, a much needed beginning for them!

Priya couldn’t understand what the big deal was.

Her sister Shikha, was so fond of the library and the books there. Priya could see it in only one way – a building with lots of books in it, where the people inside couldn’t even look up to smile at each other.
“They are all immersed in those books”, she said. “As if they prefer to become the characters in the books than live the real life.”
“You wouldn’t understand!” Shikha shook her head.
“I would, if only you put that book aside and experienced your life to the fullest for a moment.”
