Desire killed happiness


It was very hot weather...
I was sweating..
But, there was a great inspiration...
I felt...
I was feeling excitement inside my body...
My heart beats rising...
Reason....
My dream was to come true..
Yeah..
Only few minutes were remaining...
Then I would see my dream come true...
Long waited desire....
To have Motorcycle....
I was insisting that my husband should buy a Motorcycle...
We were not having any vehicle before...
Except a Bicycle...
My husband used to ride..
taking me to local market for shopping...
Sitting behind as pillion on carrier of the Bicycle...
I felt uncomfortable....
People on road watched me and my husband since long on Bicycle.
Now I can go without hesitation with my husband on motorcycle..
daily ! yes! daily ! to buy grocery in the evening....
Thinking all this...
I was lost in my imaginations...
I could not realize when the Auto Market we reached...
By a local city bus...
I held the arm of my husband while getting down of the bus..
Both of us went inside a showroom...
My heart was throbbing like anything...
One of the salesmen welcomed us...
After a short talk about our need...
We were shown different models of Motorcycles in the basement...
I chose the pink colour stripped Motorcycle.
It was a Honda brand...
glazing rims and shining body exited me more...
My husband took a trial....
After half an hours formalities....
Home Delivery was made...
We reached home as soon as possible...
Distributed some sweets to neighbors...
In excitement we did not feel hungry that night....
It was mid night we spent watching and inspecting ....
Our dream which was in front of my eyes...
Next day morning...
woke up and cleaned the dust with a soft cloth...
My husband started the Motorcycle....
It sounded amazing in my ears....
Stirred up with boiling desire....
I requested for a ride to the nearby market...
to fetch fresh milk and bread....
Cold morning breeze was making us more excited...
I was so happy ...
This was an achievement...
Yeah...
I was feeling so mad... 
That I cant explain...
Before turning to a next left turn...
I said my husband to go by another route...
He could not hear me due to speed and wind...
He by bending his head right side asked me what I said...
It was the moment...
a bad moment...
may be a bad omen...
with a sharp turn ahead....
We could not judge and see a passerby...
To save him...
My husband took a sharp turn and applied full break...
We fell down on the ground with Motorcycle...
I rolled down and managed to stand up...
I had a little bruise on my arm and elbow...
I saw tilting my head towards back...
My husband was still on the ground...
His left leg under the Motorcycle...
He tried to push away the heavy running machine...
But in vain....
Husband cried for help...
The running engine of Motorcycle also made bizarre sound...
 The passerby people came to rescue by then...
I was stunned .....
People helped to remove apart the Motorcycle...
New shining body of bike got several scratch marks..
I rushed towards my husband who was still yawning with pain...
His left leg was injured....
People helped me to take him to a dispensary nearby....
On examination...
I was shocked to hear that left leg of my husband had a fracture ...
My happiness vanished.....
My dream...
My desire...
Those excitements...
Snatched away my happiness...
For 3 months....
Whenever I looked towards my husband...
Lying on the bed...
With a white plastered heavy leg under a pillow...
I could not hide my tears flooding out..
My fault....
Yes, I felt guilty.....
I was thinking...
The old bicycle was better...
But the luck and my desire...
What can I say.....
So sad, I am today...
So sad...
