Fiction Flashes

Today I still ate a loaf of bread and drank a glass of milk as usual for the whole day. At breakfast, father promised to become rich enough to earn three meals for us one day. A cloud of expectation was born in me. I began to imagine the future days when I could eat all types of different foods.


Today I still stood outside the local school in our area longing to study there. My mother patted me and promised me that she would earn more money from her work and then I would be able attend school. A cloud of expectation was born in me. I began imagining the future days of going to a school with a schoolbag and meeting new kids.


Today I still lived in a small house shared by my family of six. I was sleeping huddled together with my siblings. My eldest brother promised to buy a new house for us which would be large enough to accommodate us. A cloud of expectation was born in me. I began to imagine the future days in my large, new house with a room all for myself.


Today I still walked all the way to complete all the chores alloted. It was tiring and sweat poured like water. My second brother promised to become an employee of a rich company and then buy a car for me to travel in. A cloud of expectation was born in me. I began to imagine the future days of traveling by car with an air conditioner on.


Today I still looked at the beauty products sold in a big shop from a distance. My hands were pressed to the glass wanting to pick up and use one of the lipsticks. My sister promised me that she would buy and do makeup for me when she had saved enough money. A cloud of expectation was born in me. I began imagining the future days when I would apply those beautiful products on my face and look pretty like a fairy.


Today I still looked at the smart phone of the rich kid of our colony. My best friend promised me that he would become such a great person in the future that let alone one phone, he would buy me everything I wanted. A cloud of expectation was born in me. I began imagining the future days when I could get everything I wanted.


Day by day my cloud of expectations grew bigger and bigger. I was waiting for the day when I would be able to eat delicacies, go to a school, live in a big house, travel by a car, become pretty, and get everything I expected for.


The imaginations were blissful but the reality was not. What I expected for never came. Not now, not later nor in the future. Instead everything kept going opposite to what I expected. Father lost his job and we had to move to a more smaller house. Instead of having a loaf of break and milk, we started to get only a loaf of bread and water to fill our stomachs. Going to school was a luxury which was still unattainable just like smart phones, cars and makeup. But inside my heart, a cloud of expectation was still there. Waiting for an opportunity to sprout it's seeds in my heart's desires.


~To all the unattainable fantasies we have in our hearts.
