Life as we see it


The funny thing about life is that you don't know when it's going to end leave alone how it's going to end or whose going to end it. Read the newspapers and everyday and I mean EVERYDAY you will find articles on "unnatural deaths" which seems to be pretty natural these days. From nobodys to dead bodies, dark isn't it? Such is life...so uncertain.


They got married on the 1st of May last year. "What a perfect jodi*" said people but perfect isn't a word anymore, it more describes an extinct animal...perfect is as real as a Diplodocus. Both of them had wonderrrfulll jobs with wonderrrfulll pays and then came working overtime. She felt he had no time for her he loved her to death (no pun intended) he really did but he did not have the time to show it, so she got busy elsewhere...she found 'love' at her workplace. Eventually he did find out but what followed is shocking...a confrontation...an argument...a murder. That was the end of her life after which he took his own.


6 a.m., Monday morning. She woke up feeling on top of the world. A first ranker all her life nothing could stop her now. All dressed up she went to her university to get her report card. Her final exams were over 2 months ago she was so relieved that she'd never have to study again after all she was a graduate now. People around her were rejoicing...on top of the world that they were finally done with the lectures, classrooms and the monotony but her world stood still...she was shaken seeing the red line under her 'Sociology' marks. Sociology had always been her favorite subject. In shock and unable to reason out what could've happened she went home. 6 p.m., Monday she lay on her bed never to wake up again. Her parents were devastated, friends were horrified and the marks were a mistake. True she would never have to study again...And for what?


The more beautiful life becomes, the uglier we make it :(
