Sounds of Soul : Microfiction : Series 6 :
DEAR NON EXISTING SIBLING…!
Dear non-existing sibling…
I thought I will have you in my arms and be the first one to hold your tiny fingers… as soon as you would be born!
I thought I will play with you, as soon as I return back from school… as I would know, there’s a little one waiting for me, at home!
I thought I will be your second mother, that I would take care of your food, health, hygiene and sleep!
I thought I will get you chocolates, toys and dresses, as much as you want… even though I wouldn’t get them for me!
I thought I will pull your hands and hug you tight, when our parents scolded you… that I would console and stop you from crying!
I thought I will help you learn your subjects and would make you… ‘The brightest student’ in your class!
I thought I will make you sit near me, whenever we would occupy… a table for four!
I thought I will take you for rides, whenever we felt bored and would depend on no one else to take us out!
I thought I will become a part of a new family, yet you would always remain my… ‘First baby’!
