A FULL STOP.
.
.
A dot...
A dot...
And another dot..
A dot we placed to end a sentence..Whether the sentence is short or long,
look out for the dot, a dot that says it all! A dot which says "FULL STOP"..! Just like how the red traffic light stopped everybody..Nobody moves, nobody drives..
But never would I expect, a dot could end a person's life with just a snap of the finger..A very valuable life a person can truly appreciate, vanished within seconds..
"Dave, passed away!!" says Daddy at one fine Friday afternoon..
WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Did I interpret the wrong name?Sadly, I wasn't wrong..It was DAVE , a single 33-year-old gentleman..At 4am, a false alarm was given to him..
"Dave, your aunt passed away, could you come and see her for the last time?"
He did as what was told at 4am+, but found out later that his aunty did not pass away..She was just in a critical condition..
"Mom, Aunty Shanty (a nun suffering from cancer due to her religion who did not allow her to go for any treatment) looks very sick..I will rush home to get you here so that you can visit her okay? wait for me at home!" says Dave to his mom at dawn (5am+)..As he was rushing home............
*KABOOM*
He did not fulfil his promise to bring his mom to the church for that visit as he met into an accident at 6am..His car overturned and hit the bus stop..He died of internal bleeding - an instant death.
A filial son has now gone.. A man to be relied on has gone..A man of words has gone..
"Mom, don't worry about daddy..He will never come back.. I will be here to take care of you!" says Dave to his mom after the death of his father..A promise was meant to be broken unintentionally afterall..A dream that never came true..
"Yesterday was the last time I saw him smile" cried my baby sitter a.k.a Dave's mom..
We truly cherish the moments we had together..Your smile will always remain in our heart..Rest in peace, Dave..May we meet again in our next life.. =)
Life's filled with surprises..
Unpredictable..
Unexpected outcomes,
bound to happen every single day..
So, just take life lightly..
Afterall, we'll soon leave the world one day..
