Oh!! Life Don’t Be Too Harsh

Alice did you liked the breakfast said the uncle. Yes! Definitely I liked it, though deep down i knew i never had such delicious breakfast before. Deep down i was thankful to uncle tom for keeping me company, as harsh weather was coming. he was my saviour. My hero. The only one i had for now. Though i didnt have any blood relation with him. But i felt quite safe around him.

It was November and everything was covered with white blanket. The thick trees covered with snow, cold wind was blowing and fog swirled around. Dark clouds covered the sky and an icy wind made me shiver and i felt sad that why my life is like this. I felt terrible i wanted to cry out my heart, i wanted to share my pain with someone. How does it feel to be all alone. That day i was missing my parents. I wanted to cry why i am like this? why my parents died? Why my uncle died? Why my aunt is like this? Why i am so helpless..

It was 4 pm and i was sitting on a bench outside the library cursing my life. I looked up the sky and my eye were dry just like i have no more tear left. A snow flake fell on my forehead and ran like a tear through my cheeks i took a deep breath, closed my eyes and wraped my blue coat around and went inside.

Uncle, Uncle Tom where are you? Papa Tom are you in the kitchen? I asked but no one answered. I went inside and sat right next to the fire and placed my head on sofe and i didnot remember when i felt asleep.

It was 7pm when i woke up because of a sharp sound. It was like something has broken. I got up slowly holding my breath as if a thief has rushed in the library. Then i realized why a theif will come to such an old place with dust and vintage stuff around. The second thought got me on nerves Oh No! Wild Bear, Leopard broke in. I looked around to get something (A Stick!! Anything!! i mumbled) i found an iron rod with lot of web and dust on it. I slowly tried to move holding my breath and was terrified. I went inside and my voice tremble but i tried (Uncle Tom is that you? Hey lea...peard shhhuuu, no Bearr please go to your home. Mr robber its an old library you cant find any valuable thing here) Please Go. I dont know what was that but slowly and gradually i was moving toward that place.

Papa Tom!! What happened to you?? Who was on dusty floor. I rushed towards him. He was in pain, probably his left leg on which a bookshelf had fallen.I tried to lift the book shelf so that Papa Tom could get himself out from there. Then i helped Papa Tom to walk towards the couch so that he could sit on it.
