I had a very beautiful showpiece , which i got ten years back. It was out of the world, surreal ,very expensive and extremely close to my heart and life. The day I saw this showpiece I fell in love with it and wanted to get it into my house by paying any cost and i did it.It was worth paying some extra grands for this lovely art work because very rarely you get to find such creations and who so ever would have got it must have felt the same. So i was the lucky one to get it and was madly attached to it. I use to handle it very carefully because i knew if not handled properly it will break. Morning ,evening , every min. of my life I use to feel good as it was enhanching the beauty of my house and life.
Days passed and after a year or so it started loosing its glitter and a crack came on it .. I was jittery, nervous and scared and went out of the way to fill that crack and polish it beautifully to hide the scar on the beauty and carried that broken and aritifically caumoflauged show piece whereever i went . I travelled places and wherever i went i took some extra care to carry the showpiece but with the time the beauty of it was demeening and the crack was growing deeper and deeper and i was standing there helplessly because i knew if i loose this i will not get a similiar piece ever again in my life .
Yesterday for my surprise even i was fed up of taking this extra care and extra burden of maintaning the showpiece and unknowingly and unintentionaly i cleaned it half heartedly and it slipped out of my hand and fell with a big thud on the ground , the pieces went into my legs and hands and I was in pain .The showpiece had hurt me , the showpiece whom I gave a special place in my heart and life at the time of going away from my house left with so much of trauma ... i was shocked
I went blank , i cried , i shouted, i yelled but nobody was there to listen to me . The world turned deaf on me and nobody vouched for help . Suddenly my maid came and cleaned the mess and told me "didi ek sadi se showpiece ke liye kyon ro rahe ho, wo tu kitna ganda ho gaya tha achha hua toot gaya"
I got up and asked her to go in kitchen and make some tea for me as i knew she will never understand what loosing a old friend can be like so what if she was just like a showpiece in my life
