The promise

Bangalore, India
February 24, 2017 1:57am CST
After a long time I wrote a story.. Well it is a micro-story.. I wrote that in my mother language Bengali. I am not good in translation and some feelings cannot be translated equally in other language.. but I am trying to translate that in English for you... Please read and let me know.. The Promise They promised each other that they will stay together at least for one night in life. So today, the sixty six years old Lady, ‘happy’ with her grand-children, is sitting whole night beside the dying bachelor old man in a hospital cabin. (image: google)

This sounds like a good outline for a story, with the moral being - don't wait too long.

@ichchhe_mrityu Well, if you really want to be a writer you'll need to flesh it out a bit.

@jaboUK thank you.. actually I write in bengali.. and I am not that good and interested to translate all those write ups which got published in magazines.. This one was a 2 liner story that's why I translated it into English..
