DEATH OF A ROSE

Rose never wanted to fall in love again after her first break up neither did she wanted to see the sun the next day. Warm tears streamed down her face and soaked her neck and chest region as catarrh also flaunted her sorrow. 

She locked herself throughout the morning refusing to eat or let anyone in including her parents and kept crying for a long time. Her parents were scared thinking maybe she might commit suicide so they had to break the door at noon and saw something as they looked up. 

It was their daughter's body hanging freely on the ceiling fan. The scene shattered her mother's heart who broke down in tears and collapsed on the floor. Her father was disappointed and very sorrowful to miss his 20 years old daughter become food to suicide. He couldn't also control himself even though in the past, he never had time for her. 

She was always her mother's pet. But you never know what you've got until you lose it. How will her mother tell her neighbors that her daughter whom she loves dearly killed herself for some reason yet to be known? 

How would society see the father as someone irresponsible about his daughter's welfare? The sorrow in her room was thick as her mother's squeal alerted the neighbors who rushed in to know what's wrong.

The worst happened as more people rushed to the scene to know the cause of the alarm. The sad news really gripped everyone's heart that Rose's mother didn't notice the suicide note her daughter dropped on her bed. 

The chair that supported her suicide mission was hated and feared vehemently at the moment. Her room was filled up as everyone was trying the console her parents. 

Then an observant neighbor saw the suicide note lying helplessly on the bed. She reached for it and realized that it was from Rose. After reading few lines, her heart couldn't bear the sorrowful letter so she alerted everyone that Rose left a note. At that point, a note couldn't pacify the crying mother or the bittered father who was escorted outside with fellow elders consoling him dearly.

"I don't want to read any note. I just want my daughter back to life." She scattered her dress and almost went nude. Her hair was in disarray. She wasn't the beautiful calm woman people knew her for any more. She might be termed a psycho if a roaming stranger met her at that state. 

"I breastfed her in my arms. She used to tell me all her secrets but she never told me why she committed suicide..." Ahhhhhh!!!!!! 

Her wailings were pregnant with the pains of a mother at loss.
