I stood in front
of the photograph and shed tears like a small kid; it was such an emotional fit I missed him so badly and just wanted to hug him but I could not, I knew he was always there for me but I physically wanted to see him around which was totally impractical; the imagination of his smile, his mischief, his memories took me three and a half years back, him on the hospital bed like a veg table with just tears in his eyes, the whole picture just got opened; could not tolerate any further; looked at him feebly and just asked him one thing, “Am I Bad?” why don’t you answer it to me? Why did you leave me all alone to face the wrath of the people around for no fault of mine? I just jabbered some more questions to the photograph on the wall till my tired eyes sealed themselves off dragging me away to sleep, all I could remember was I could not hug him and that was what mattered to me during that time.

I woke up the next morning with inflamed eyes; wondering
what had happened last night but I could ambiguously remember, completed my
chores, and started to office, it was a pretty unusual day, it was gloomy
outside, seemed like the sun had forgotten to awaken, it was a clear sky, as
clear as a canvas waiting to be splashed with colors; nothing looked appealing
to me, I just looked down straight and accelerated my vehicle and rode with multiple
conflicts trying to take precedence over each other .
I was just looking down at the floor while I bumped into the
head of my team, he looked at me and without a word, he said; I would like to
meet you today at my office, please come over. I was a little apprehensive,
wanted to immediately know and understand what he wanted to convey to me; I ran
around people who I was at ease with and asked few questions to which the most
expected disappointing sentence “How would I know?” was a reply.
I waited for about half an hour until my colleague completed
the discussion; I went inside; he smiled at me and the first question he asked
was, “What do you want to do?” there were lot of things he said and amidst the
discussion my eyes filled with tears, the helplessness took over me as I opened
up myself with the concerns I had; he stopped me; out of the world there came some
words , answers to all the questions I had asked the photograph on the wall “YOU
ARE A GOOD GIRL”; I found my answer. I walked out of the room with happiness;
my eyes were gleaming with joy, I went out now looked at the sky above; I could
see it painted with the picture that I have on the wall in my bed-room. I was
miraculously blessed; the presence of the most missed soul of my life was felt
again.
