I hope you guys have read the description. This is neither a story about AvNeil, nor about AdiZa. This is just a day of my life. A harsh reality.

27th May, 2018 Sunday.

I was lost in my dreamland, probably flying through the clouds or making my dream castle; meeting my Prince Charming or being involved in some midnight shenanigans when some loud sobs woke me up. I saw my mom hyperventilating and my dad calling someone in a haste. I saw my mom crying hysterically. Her red cheeks and puffy eyes indicated how much she would have cried. I went and hugged her tightly; and she like a baby, just cuddled close to me.

I was oblivious to the reason behind that state of hers. I was unaware that that reason would shatter my world..!!

I approached my dad to seek answers for my mom's disheveled state. His eyes were glassy too..!!
The thing which he told me next, sent a shiver down my spine. I couldn't believe my ears and just wanted it to be a dream.

"My elder cousin brother drowned in the Ganges"

My mom and I, reached my aunt's place by the next flight. There he was...his body lying on the earth.

How I wished to just unhear the harsh reality.

How I wished to just unsee the corpse of my brother wrapped up in a shroud.

How I wished to just embrace him in my arms nd tease him by saying,"Hey Bamboo, I am proud of u for passing ur 12th class with not so good percentage".

How I wished to just see him fit and fine in front of me...running his hands through his hair with the first 2-3 buttons of his shirt open...putting on his sunglasses and striking a pose for the camera.

How I wished to just hear him calling me "Moti" (chubby) and laughing.

How I wished for these wishes to come true..!!

But as they say, God has a dearth of good people nd he calls them soon to his abode.
Although you were there with us for a short span of time...but I can undoubtedly say that I have had spent one of the best phases of my life with you.

You lightened up our world with your endearing demeanour, and I am sure you are doing the same in the alternate universe too..!!

Just a little request to my Dreams:
Dear Dreams,

"Please be considerate enough and let me meet that one person whom I can't meet in the actual world. You are my only escape from this harsh reality.

You see, my life is completely void without him. At least, let me spend some blissful moments with him through you. "

I don't know what I wrote here. Probably what I felt that day.

The part where I requested my Dreams...why do I feel I read something of this kind earlier, but I am just not able to recollect. If anybody reads something similar to that somewhere...do let me know please.

So here it ends. Not inteded to hurt anyone.
