It was destiny, I have been told,
When I was left to wrestle with the jaws of death.
Destiny took the glory once again,
When I fought my way out.
No, I am not hiding behind my destiny.
I am writing my own destiny
Because it can be rewritten!

“Life isn’t fair, sweetheart. If it was, then I would have been married to the football captain of the school, not to the science club head!”
“If she married him then you would be talking to your dad in prison now, honey, and I don’t think he is in a position to buy an iPhone.”
“And dear, don’t tell me that you prefer the timed visits than sitting here relaxing,” James said turning to his wife.
Lori smiles as their lips meet.
Christie scoffs at the conversation realizing her iPhone dream is not going to come true anytime soon.

Shekhar knew that life can’t be perfect. But his life was an exception, he thought. Shekhar was aware that his friends were jealous of his perfect life. Every piece of the puzzle found its way right on time in his life. Of course, it wasn’t just easy as others thought, but Sona’s presence had made all the difference to him. She always had his back, always, back when they were just kids and he ran into troubles, till few days back. He was the mischievous kind, as a kid, but she brought the good out of him. He owed his life to her. When Shekhar left his well-paid job for following his passion in photography not only did she encourage him to do so, she was defensive when his and her family went against his wish.The bond between them was so strong.
It’s been only five months since Sona was diagnosed with Brain tumor. Between the constant migraine attacks and her demanding work, she didn’t suspect anything else until she fainted in her office one afternoon. Things took a delirious turn since then. Doctors gave her six months time. Shekhar and Sona had postponed their wedding because of his change in career.
Shekhar knew nothing could be fertile now. But he wanted to fulfill her wish though she never asked him. He insisted on getting married soon. And finally, a month ago they got married. It didn’t matter to him that she looked like a mere ghost of Sona, that her glow had faded. Shekhar could see her eyes twinkling with love for him, he could sense her heart beating to spend more time together. He knew that how much she would miss him, but she was always careful in not letting him know her concerns. Because she knew how much he would miss her. He was the needy one. He needed her assurance to move forward, always.
She had become his habit. With her gone there was no one else to comfort him.
He wept his heart out.
Written based on the prompts Defensive, Fertile, Needy for Three Word Wednesday.

“Hi.”
“Hi,” Grace said uncertainly.
“I’m Joe.”
“Grace.”
“I see you here every evening.”
“I haven’t seen you.”
“Yeah, I know. You never seemed to be present here when you were here.” He chuckled.
That was true. She came there every evening in memory of her deceased boyfriend, Xavier. That spot was their favorite meeting place till the day he died. She was always lost in thought when she got there.
“Would you like a cup of coffee?”
A voice from inside her said that it’s time to let go. Maybe, it’s time she thought as she smiled at Joe.

She looked at the art, puzzled. It didn’t make any sense to her. The stones, tiles, clock with numbers shattered, bottles – she thought it was garbage piled on a corner.

But it is displayed as art in the gallery. People are looking at this one in particular very curiously, very impressively.
Only she couldn’t understand why!
Probably it is like her marriage – messy inside-out but for the outsiders it gave a curious element, with the way they managed to come off like one happy couple.
Yes, that’s it, garbage piled on a corner, impressing the viewers!

Finally, she took her stand and responded to the abuses. It was time, she defended herself and stopped justifying him. He said sorry, it was alcohol, hurting was not intentional. But never he took steps to control his addiction, never!
Now she left him, away from his life, his house.

She looked at the horizon, sun painting the wide sky with his palette one last time, dipping clouds in shades of red. How does he do that, she wondered! Spreading such warmth throughout the day, filling light and life on the earth, come evening he puts on his artist coat and paints the beautiful blue sky in hues of orange and red, crafting the marvelous golden horizon.
Her heart pumped to amaze the world one last time, just like the sun, before she succumbed her life to cancer. And she captured the beautiful stripes one last time on the canvas, filling the white paper with colors the glorious sun adored, leaving him astonished at her work.
