The Misty Morning

The Misty Morning

I was gazing at the morning scenery, the whole environment was misty. Things were no clear to be seen. My eyes were obstructed by the mist. I didn't feel to have my breakfast. I was just gazing at the morning mist through the window, I felt like it's like when endless problems come into our life in a sequence we are unable to see our life as usual. 

  My mind was not letting me stay inside the room, I hear the voice of grandma calling me for the breakfast but I pretend to stay as I didn't hear it. I felt to stroll down though it was misty. So I put on my jacket, scarf, gloves and I went outside.

  

The whole atmosphere was dull with null melodies of hummingbirds, yellow flowers were lying on the bare ground trampled by many feet. Roses fragrance did not blow like other days. I just stop near the graveyard for a moment, suddenly I felt like my heart stops breathing, my legs and hands were frozen as ice as I couldn't shake them. My eyes stood wide open as I saw a ghost, I felt some voices nearby. Suddenly a blow of wind fell across my mind.


" Selena...you are now a big girl ...don't fight with your sister for chocolate. Please share it with your sister "


" Mom....see..sister is pinching me" 


" Caroline, don't be naughty.,"


" Hey, darling ...look..there...how that idiot is trying to take over..."


" Bill, babe please drive slowly, this is a highland " 


" Oh...no...dad.dad....where we heading towards ...slow ...slow....a steep slope....D....A.....D...." 


No.no...where those voices came from? Where are they now? This took place two years ago. Just like today. Time has rush like a horse carriage. I missed them. My life is incomplete...I feel bad...God spared my life and took my dear ones near God. I felt to cry loudly, I felt like a hole in my heart that can never be filled. Am I lucky ?? Some said that I was lucky to be saved but what lucky. I felt to ruin my life but according to Bible, it's a sin. 

  Alas !!! Nooooo!!! I shouted ... I felt a sudden touch on my shoulder. Near the graveyard, now my fear is at its height. I started to run ...no...my legs and hands still frozen as ice ...I stood my mouth open in wide no words came out as I saw a ghost. Imagine like in the storybook of R.L.stine Goosebumps. In fear I swiftly turned my neck to see, now I heard a voice 

  

" Selena...come, my dear... It's too cold ..for you to stay.. you will catch cold."


 Oh...I felt like breathing now. She might have guessed that I'm here waiting alone. I cuddled with her as a kid and wept. We both wept and we came home and sat by the fireside with hot mugs of coffee to escape from isolation.
