Girl with Dreams

꧁𝐆𝐢𝐫𝐥 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐃𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐬꧂

𝐀𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥'𝐬 𝐏𝐎𝐕:

I tossed in bed and opened my eyes widely. Sleep was nowhere near me. My eyes travelled to the vintage iron wall clock, which was hanging on the wall. Coincidentally, the clock struck at midnight. I sighed and pulled my body out of bed. The cool breeze kissed my cheeks through the opened balcony door. I closed my eyes. All the silence of the night was dissolved by the memories, which had all the happy and sad memories I shared with my 19 years old sister Payal and 12 years old brother Sunny along with our dear father Manish Singhania.

My lips twitched into faint smile and tears welled up in my eyes. I opened my eyes and looked at my mother, who was hanging on the wall in the photo frame with a never-fading smile in her lips. She had left us when Sunny born due to huge blood loss, the dark day of my life. I had grown up seeing my father hiding his sorrows behind his smile and showered his love on us three.

I always longed to do something for my father out of my earnings to see his pure smile. I had gifted him a lot, which just made him smile. I couldn't get satisfaction in those smiles. I wished to feel his happiness. But when I came to know the thing in which his happiness lies, I was taken back. I was not ready for it. I had dreams. As for now, I was just working in a Star hotel as chief Manager. I wished to open my new hotel and start a school for orphan kids. I knew, If I had told my father about my dream, he would have made it a reality within a second. But I wished to do all on my own without my father's support at back.

I had washed out all my dreams to see his happiness. His happiness lies in playing with his grandchildren. I gave up my dreams for him. Tomorrow, by this time I would be in my soon to be husband's room as his wife. I should leave my home as soon as Haldi ceremony (𝑨𝒄𝒄𝒐𝒓𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒐 𝑰𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒂𝒏 𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆, 𝒓𝒆𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝒃𝒓𝒊𝒅𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒈𝒓𝒐𝒐𝒎 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒂𝒑𝒑𝒍𝒚 𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒎𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒄 𝒑𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒆 𝒐𝒏 𝑩𝒓𝒊𝒅𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑮𝒓𝒐𝒐𝒎 𝒕𝒐 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒎 𝒈𝒆𝒓𝒎𝒔 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒚 𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒂 𝒏𝒆𝐰 𝒑𝒉𝒂𝒔𝒆 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒊𝒓 𝒍𝒊𝒇𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒈𝒉 𝒎𝒂𝒓𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒈𝒆) over by today afternoon. I should leave my family behind as soon as I hold my fiance's hand in the name of the wedding. I should be loaded with much more responsibilities as a wife, sister in law and daughter in law of my new household. I should have to take care that my new responsibilities shouldn't affect my existing responsibilities as a daughter, sister and mother to my siblings.

In these all, my dreams would be long forgotten.

I touched my mother's photo frame and caressed it gently. My heart became heavy. Who would look after my siblings just like me hereafter? I had given them motherly love to date. Hereafter, how would they be?

Why it's, girls, should always leave our birthplace for someone new in our life?

All these thoughts just made me sleepless. I walked to and fro in the room until it dawn. Finally, Sleep God took over my tired body.
