Pride meets nonchalance and loses its relevance. Dahlia only wanted him at her feet but fell in his stead. She is really triggered by just that one pair of eyes that are never on her. Her pride-induced hysterics don’t move him till he gets to the bottom of things only to reveal the one thing they shared in common. Slowly, he understands and cures her of pride with pills of love.

Pride Pills

I was put out of my comfortable state when I heard a scream right behind me, turning only to see Dahlia seated on the ground. I supposed she had fallen and quickly went over her. I got her seated in a more comfortable position when I realized she could barely stand. She had hurt her feet obviously because of her slippers. They had humongous soles. Then I remembered that I had a pair of new slides in my backpack and gave them to here. They should be much safer, I thought. And, they really looked good on her feet too. 


I guess I have to order another pair of the slides for my mum. It was supposed to be a gift for her. At home, she stands to cook African food for long hours. I figured I could lessen the effect of standing for long on her feet by getting her footwear with more comfy soles. She loves the peach colour too.
