From the other side

'Mom is what the doctors say true?'

Voice a bit weak and hesitant - 'What did you hear dear?'

'I heard you talking to them about daddy........' - with an anxious look that could burst into tears or happiness anytime now.

'No baby nothing is going to happen to daddy' - a bit more composed but the lie was evident.

With trembling voice this time - 'You are lying i know daddy is going to be born' - bursting into tears - 'i know what i heard'.

Seeing no point to hide anymore - tears start rolling.

'Its nothing dear, all those who die have to get born again - thats the rule of the universe. I knew this could happen someday - but didnt expect so early'

'Cant he be dead for some more time. Why is god doing this?'

--------------------------xxxxx-------------------------

with anxiety - waiting out | with anxiety - waiting out
of the hospital room wait- | of the hospital room wait-
ing for the result ------- | ing for the result -------

'I am sorry Ma'm, we tried | 'Congradulations Sir , you
all we could but we couldnt| have become a father......'
save your husband........' |

--------------------------xxxxx-------------------------

It doesnt end where you think it does .............. it is just another beginning :)
