Walking Miles Alone - Short Story

“I know you hate me”


“This is not fair Grace; I have been telling you that I need to go”

Grace was in no mood to leave Michael that easy. It became their regular routine to fight for no reason and this seems to be a new one.

Michael and Grace met each other in Siesta, Florida seven years before. They started dating till they got married last October. Love became a routine of their life, not priority and of course small issues crept in which weeded around their relationship. Surprises were never ending when their love was blooming but not anymore. To add to it, Michael lost his job due to the great recession.

“We were never compatible; I really don’t know how we got married in spite of all these indifferences” Michael woke up from his thoughts by this statement by Grace.

“Let me tell you Grace, it is impossible for me to prove how much I love you, it is really not an experiment to do a test on it and declare the result. I need to go to New York, I am sure that I can find a job soon”

“I know you are running away from me, you want to be alone, don’t you, Michael?”

“Ah..! Wish you could take me in right sense ever” Michael is busy in packing.

Grace was almost to burst, “So you stick to your decision to move to New York, You don’t bother about me anymore. Don’t you think we could find another job staying here itself” Tears rolled down her cheeks.

“Is this a breakup, make it clear Michael? Please let me know if you want me to move away. I will never be an obstacle in your way”

“Yes… it is!! How do I explain you more, I don’t want my life to be burned in the ashes of our conflicts? Let’s move on Grace. I am sure you got a bright future ahead”

“So do you Michael, I think you don’t have to bother about it. I thought you were bothered about the job. If this was your intention I would have never come on your way. Carry on” Grace walked into the room. She closed the door as if to show her anger on it.

After a while she came out,“Wait, why do you go to New York? It’s your home; rather I need to go out”.

“Grace, you are testing my patience, I leave that to you to decide whether to stay here or not. It’s my wish to leave this place. It was my dream to get this apartment, but your contribution was never less for me, it helped me a lot”.

“Don’t you show your kindness to me? I will consider it lost. Anyway I need to start a new journey and it should not begin with our old memories” exclaimed Grace.

Michael’s phone rang, “Hello Michael, your pickup is waiting outside” It was the driver of Airport pickup he booked late night.

“I will be there in a minute. Good bye Grace, your memories will haunt me where ever I go, just want to tell you something before I go

I Love you, I wish I could change my destiny but your future is bright”

“Stop this, please carry on” Grace was about to walk off.

“Please Grace, give me a minute, may be that I will never get a chance to meet you again. Just listen to me once, do you remember the way I proposed you, I knew I was crazy but I couldn’t stop doing that because it was important for me to prove my love. After marriage, I thought we were one, I never felt it’s important to prove my love, I never felt it would be necessary to gift you to let you know that I love you. I thought when I let you rest your head on my chest, holding you in my heart will make you feel the warmth of my love. That turned out to be a fiasco; I should let you leave your way. I am scared to be alone but now I understand the need of freeing you.” He was shivering all the while he spoke.

“Michael, please let’s talk, come in, don’t go...” said Grace.

Michael phone again rang, “Sorry Grace, I need to go, I will miss you for sure but I don’t love you anymore. I wish to be alone than being with you”

“Don’t be so harsh in your words, I will pray for your well being” Grace felt as if she is losing her sense.

Years after…

“George, Come here. You are becoming naughty. Why did you pull out all these documents? See how much I am struggling to put it back”, Grace shouted at the top of her voice

“Sorry, Mom I was looking for a school project” George seems to be immersed in the laptop.

“Mom, when is Dad coming back?”

“I am not sure honey; I think he will be back soon. You know he is busy with his clients in New York”

“Wow, I need to ask him to get me an iPad this time. All my friends own a tablet by now”

Grace seems to have ignored his wish. She didn’t respond to his request. She knew that his father will get him anything he needs.

“Look at this! I need to spend an hour at least to put this back in place.” Grace was furious this time. George realized his mom is losing her temper and so he sheepishly scooted out of the room .

“Mom, I need to catch up with my friends to know their progress in the project, see you in an hour”

“Take care; Watch while you are on road, honey”. She knew it was his trick to escape.

Accidently her eyes locked in the Mayo Clinic Records. Mayo Clinic in Rochester is considered to be one of the top ten hospitals for Cancer Care in United States.

She took the documents out,

Patient Record, Name: Michael Schenezer , Age: 30. Disease: Glioblastoma multiforme, the deadliest brain tumor. Even the most aggressive treatment could save the victim only to the maximum of 12 months from death. Grace was about to fall, she took support of the table. She took all the documents out; it had a small note written

“By the time you find this I would be dead because my doctors said I had only a week left, I just want you to know that I love you Grace, more than anything in this world” – Michael.
