CLAIRE

BROKEN

It was a bright and cold day, the birds chirping, the car horns sounding as loud as you can imagine, movement of people going about their daily routine got louder, and the clock striked 6...
    She stood up abruptly and jumped off the bed from the shock of her alarm clock that rang.... Then she staggered as she tried to get to her senses....
     It was a cold, unhappy and unfortunate night for Claire the previous week... She remembered his cold words to her as she gained consciousness and hot tears rolled down her eyes....
   He was her everything after the demise of her parents and she still couldn't believe she lost him without a tangible reason from him....  The more she thought about his words to her, the more her tears increased....  She tried to get a hold of herself but she knew it was too late, she has definitely started her day with the thought of him which would last through the day....
   She got dressed and got ready for her days job,as it was Monday.. she worked as a manager in a cosmetic company and she couldn't afford to loose yet another thing...
    Claire, claire, claire, her colleague called.... She was so lost in her thought she didn't notice or hear her office door open.. She got out of shock, stood up and began to pack the documents off the table and informed her colleague she was going home as she wasn't feeling too well...
   On getting home she was ushered with a little note well enveloped with a red ribbon tied around it at her door step. Being curious she quickly untied the ribbon and opened the envelope and the letter in it read thus:
      Dear Claire please meet me at the rooftop of the building close to your house and tell no one 
                                    Anonymous.
