A Goodbye....

He: I am leaving tonight.... will you meet me when i get back?

* A heavy silence on the other end*

He: Will you be all right?

She: Yeah... I will learn to deal with this in time..

He: I am sorry if i ever hurt you...

*She tried not to reflect on that *

She: Are you feeling fine?

He: Yeah I am, do i have any other choice?


*yes, that reply did hurt badly*


She: Our love was like cancer, you know its all gonna end someday, but until then you keep relishing each moment and fight for it...


He: yes, i understand...

*Did he? Really! Because even she was confused about her bitter feelings*


She hoped he would truly understand what she was feeling at that moment someday....


PS: I tried for a 55 fiction.... well just could not limit my fiction to 55 words.... will try it some other time :) ...
