End is Abrupt...

All he could hear was the ambulance’s sirens. He knew he was in it but what he wanted to know was the destination – Heaven or Hell? He preferred Earth though. He had whole life waiting for him, he can’t die. God has never been so cruel to him and he’ll never be. He could feel one of his important organ is missing, but couldn’t figure out which one. He felt as if he was unconsciously conscious.

Life had been very easy for him. He really didn’t have to struggle much for he was happy about what he got. A mischievous school life ended with a good academic record, good enough to put him in the best of the universities. Then a playful college life earned him a good job in a reputed concern and also the love of his life, Shalini. Vijay was quite contented.

He proposed and she accepted to his surprise for she hardly knew him. This even scared him as he was afraid the relationship won’t last. But it was as smooth as his life so far. After three years of their college, they informed parents. Both the parents were considerate and no surprises here too. Marriage was fixed on Jan 24th, the day he proposed to her. It was like a dream life he was living for he had always heard other people cribbing about their life. He felt he got all he desired. Sometimes he even wondered whether he deserved them all.

That day, Vijay called her asking her out for shopping. After the engagement, they could hardly meet. He felt like meeting her that day, so he made up the shopping thing. He picked her up from her office in his bike, another darling. The best time he ever had was when he had both his darlings together. After some shopping at the mall, they sat in the couch of their favorite coffee shop. They had spent long hours in the same couch. Chatting about everything that existed and everything that they wish existed. Not only the onlookers but the lovers themselves wonder sometimes how they could ever speak for such long hours staring at each other. After the coffee, he dropped her home. On his way back home, he felt he was the happiest man on the world.

Just then, from no where, the truck came and hit him from behind. He had no clue what happened. He felt the pain for one tenth of a millisecond before he became unconscious. Then, he could hear the siren of the ambulance. At the hospital, he could see Shalini crying loud, his parents, her parents, everyone was crying. Then he realized he was dead. It’s all over so abruptly. When your life goes as desired, means God had his math all wrong and to correct that, he rubs off the entire calculation abruptly.
