I am Matheline. I live with my parents in street 2 block 8 . I have a well settled job of fashion designer and is happy with my salary. I have a well to do family. Loveing parents as I am the only child. Every thing is perfect except me been an unmarried 27 year old girl . It's not like I don't want to marry and have my own family but their are other problems to deal with . I am madly in love with Brad,my neighbour. He is an orphan and had be brought and growed up in Sunshine orphan house. Despite all olds he is well educated and has a degree of computer engineering. But luck is not his side . He is indeed hardworking, loving, caring, respectful individual but jobless.. that's where the problem began . It's obvious that my parents can't hand me to a jobless man. I had tried convencing them but failed. I am waiting for his to get a well salary job. We both try our best but have not succeed. Brad give interview almost every day but had always received rejection. 

It was like any usual day when my parents called me in the dining room to have a talk . We had a long discussion and the conclusion shattered me . I went straight to Brad and said " I have a bad news" he replied in a casual tone" Yaa I might have been rejected by XYZ company, it's ok " . I said " No it's even worsen  than those rejections". He said now with fear in his voice " Speak up Meth". "My parents have decided to marry me to a business man next week " I said sobbing. He had tears in his eyes but he controlled himself from crying finally after a brief silence he replied " I hope that man keeps you more happy. You deserve better than me . How much will you wait for me . Go ahead in life . Good luck " I said but I live you Brad . He kissed my forehead and asked me to return home 

Days passed like years and finally my wedding day arrived. Every one was happy except the bride . I got dressed up. Two hours before my wedding I received a mail. 

Mr Brad you are qualified for the job . You may join us from tomorrow itself. 

After reading it I jumped with job. I need to tell him I kept telling my self. Then we will get married I began imagine my future with Brad. I need to escape. I decided to get from my room window. Careful I went out and ran to Brad's house. I shouted Open the door . ....open the door .... No response 

I went straight to the window of his living room and went inside through it ... But what I saw shattered me and my dreams.... Brad commited a suicide....I cried my heart loud... May you have waited one more day, you would have seen your dreams coming to reality.. you would have me and a well job ... We would have get married... Hope you won't have not given up so early... I learnt a lesson that day HUMAN LIVES ON HOPE. NEVER GIVE UP. MAY BE TOMORROW IS THE DAY U HAVE ALWAYS WISHED FOR ....
