THE LOVE BIRDS.

"Breast cancer", said the doctor leaving the newly wed couples into tears.
"Last stage..", the Doctor continued and added, "only chemotherapy can keep her alive for the coming few days, there's not much time left with her.."
They left the chamber holding each others hand. They walked down the street, and silence prevailed all around. 
On reaching home, she went inside her room and lied on the bed. She was in tears again. He said, "Don't cry, I love you." And he hugged her. Who knew this was coming their way? They had just started living their life, a life filled with love. They were bound to take a very tough decision and finally they decided to go for the chemotherapy.

Her chemotherapy started and she was in pain, badly. This was now killing her. After the first session she said, "This is painful. Let me die."
He replied, "I'll do everything possible to keep you with me, don't leave me and just walk away." And he cried.
Slowly she started losing her hair, and her body was no more able to take the pain. 
She asked him, "I look ugly now, right?"
"Whatever happens, you'll be the most beautiful girl for me" and kissed her.
Weak and weaker, now she gave up.
She died and he was alive. But, he now dies every day because once he was alive, alive with her and her love...........

I MISS YOU MY SUPERHERO.

“Papa, Papa, Papa. We’ll go to Aquatica (water park) this Sunday, please?” I said. “Ok beta, we’ll surely go.” Replied papa and I hugged him. It was Saturday afternoon when papa came upstairs from the shop for the lunch. He took his lunch and a small nap and went back to the shop downstairs. After he went down, he had a sudden pain in his chest. The employees took him to his cabin and made him lie down. The condition worsened and then the employee decided to call and inform the family members. He called and said, “Ma’am, sir is sick. He is having a serious pain in his chest.” After hearing this, Deepa, my mother ran downstairs with the hot water bag. Things were normal for a while but again he felt the pain and he was unable to bear it. Seeing this, the employees suggested my mother to call the ambulance and take him to the hospital. The ambulance came and papa was taken DSP (Durgapur Steel Plant) main hospital. The weather then turned out to be rainy and the storm started. It w

May had already started and the sun was showing his hotness to everyone. Everyone was busy in their life and had a very hectic schedule. My college vacation had started and so I was back to home. It was the second week of May and mother’s day was coming. For me, I never really needed any particular day to celebrate it as mother’s day because each and every day was her day. But I decided to make that one day a special one for her. I planned a surprise for her. On the afternoon of 9th may, I called up my best friend, Srishti and said, “see, you need to help me out in planning a surprise for mummy.” “What am I getting in return to do this?” she replied. I said, “Shut up idiot!” and we both laughed. I continued, “See the plan is going to be like, you’ll call her up and tell that you want to go out with me and do some shopping. Even mummy will go for some grocery shopping tomorrow. So we’ll go to the market and buy the necessary things we need and we’ll come back home while she’ll still
