What Sam wants, Sam gets.
She wanted to experience the world, she lived like a nomad.
She wanted to be famous, she was the favourite topic of rumor-mongers.
She wanted to marry the ideal man, she did and now was a widow.
Indeed, it’s true. What Sam wants, Sam gets. No more, no less.

Teardrop. Raindrop. They create a puddle, where she stares at a reflection.
“Who are you?” She asked.
“I’m not who you think I am.” It answers.
Taken aback, her crying ceased.
“Drama. Drama. Get out of the rain, you stupid idiot!” She breathes a sigh of relief while her mom dragged her inside the house.

She opens her eyes. She knows something’s changed.
She picks up her ringing mobile.
“Are you ready?” John asked. She mumbles, “Yes.”
She hangs up, leans back, and just stared at the ceiling.
“It wasn’t a dream,” she whispers disbelievingly.
She focuses her stare on her signature’s fresh ink on the multi-million dollar contract.

She stares at it nervously. Unsure of what to do and how to act. You can’t really learn it in any textbook or take up a course. There’s simply no formula for it.
But reaching out and touching that little hand, melted her heart. She knew then she’ll make it as a mum.
He died that day more than a couple of decades ago. Gunned down on the tarmac. Accused of killing man who then became a national hero.
He owes the country a good man in the government. But did he really?
You see, he was supposedly in jail serving time for a different crime.
She’s not the type who’d give up easily. She always see positive things in people no matter how badly she gets treated sometimes — including him.
He was guilty of that.
She wanted to make things right and start over but he completely missed the point so she finally was forced to say, “I’ve had enough.”

I was enjoying a latte at a cafe when I noticed a woman stand up, with coffee on one hand and a cigarette on the other.
I snorted in surprise, with my drink almost coming out through my nose, as I watched her walk away.
The back of her shirt reads, “Respiratory Therapy.”

It was the moment she had waited for. Memories of laughter and hope came flooding her mind. He’s finally here smiling at her just like she imagined he would. She sees the excitement in his stride as he walked up to her.
Looking into his eyes that very moment, she realised — she didn’t care anymore.

“Impossible –” she said in disbelief. Stole a glance at him, hoping it went unnoticed. He gave her a smile that baffled her.
She had harboured feelings for him from the moment she set eyes on him, long before he knew her.
He gently took her hand, “Anything’s possible.”
All was right with the world.

She can’t believe he’s dying. Seeing him lying on there with all the tubes attached to his body, she felt weak.
“He can’t die. He mustn’t die.” Her thoughts silently screamed.
She can’t stand to watch him like this, with all the vibrance and colour gone.
So, she turned the telly off and stomped away.
