MISLAID PLANS
A rash of new bills came that morning. Look at the new bills and the old ones. They have no enough money to pay for all these after a long time her husband lost his company. Life sometimes changes has no reason and no announcement. Just after a few months later they lost almost everything except the bills and their children. The letter from their insurance company announced the cancellation of their policies. That was 5 years ago when they found the company, her husband decide to buy a good life insurance so that when he die his wife will get a big money from the insurance company. And that was the plan. Although the life insurance was expensive but at that time that was really nothing. They were rich, actually really rich.
She sighed and rose wearily to tell her husband. There’s no other way can go except sigh for this paper. And they were not only lost the insurance but also the money they had been paid before.
She walled though the kitchen smelled of gas. She suddenly get so nervous and she yelled her husband “open the window! The gas is leaking!” but there’s only silence answered to her. She ran toward to her husband’s work room. When she turns to the Connor of the kitchen, she found her husband lay on the floor with a smile, but no answer. She was crying and yelling. Everything just so quiet at that time and never feel like that quiet. When the ambulance came over, the doctor told her he already dead.
She fell down on the ground and been numb for a while, and a sad cream went though the silence. She went back to her husband’s work room. On his desk she found the note.
“…the money from my life insurance will be enough for you and the children… I love you and love you forever…” by this time there’s nothing could say out of her mouth or even thing about anything. She fell down on the floor again. But this time her hurt was totally broken. His life will not be brought back anymore, all the good time will not ever happen again. This is what you did to me. Nothing left but a broken heart.
The last hope just disappeared, when people say fearless is love, they can survive, but who ever really tried the taste of all the hurt. That’s not that easy as what they said.
The sky never been like this bright and blue, the bird flying through, looking toward the landscape, just so peaceful and unknowing there won’t be anything worse and nothing to fear.
That day was Valentine’s Day and their ten year of marriage.
