I finished reading the letter and the tears that I had held for last six months and for last week came out and I sobbed loudly, letting go the anger I felt when ella told me about cancer, the sadness when I thought about the dark future, the hurt I felt towards the unfairness of universe. I sobbed for the things we will never get to experience and I sobbed to let out all the sorrow embedded in my heart.

Why me? Why ella? That are the questions I asked myself and the God for past six months. I cried thinking about the moment when slowly the light of life drained from my Ella's eyes and I couldn't do anything. I cried for all the lost dreams. I cried because of fear of how to pick up the broken pieces of my shattered heart.

After some time when my tears stop I looked at the sky and said while smiling, "Don't worry Ella I'll not became a jerk."

I stood from the bench and started walking towards my bedroom, I changed my clothes and freshen up and laid down on bed and faced towards her side of bed and I whispered,"I'll take one day at a time Ella, Promise" and I closed my eyes.

As I was on the verge of dozing off for first time in a week, I abruptly open my eyes and whispered in the silence of room,"l love you to the stars and back, Ella."

And I don't know if it was my hallucination but I heard, "I love you back, Benny."

Hearing that I smiled a tired smile and dozed off.
