My Brainwork - Collection Of Short Stories

Just a dream

I saw myself with a knife pointed at my neck and I was sure I was going to die. With my eyes, I sent a last look full of gratitude to those who had my had always been by my side but I'd never ever given them the respect that they deserved. And with that thought all of them stiffened and the memory lane flitted in front of my eyes.

My brother who always hugged me when I was weak, but for who I didn't have time since I was busy in setting up my company.

My husband, who always supported me but I could never love him the way he craved. 

My kid, who always waited to see a glimpse of their mother at night but never got to hear her encouraging them.

But maybe, regretting it right now is of no use. And that's when I closed my eyes embracing death.

"Priya, wake up" I could hear my husband's voice and that's when I opened my eyes and hugged him tightly and realised it was just a dream.
