Contest: “PICK A WORD, PAINT A STORY #18: Sorrow"
Hello my dear Steemians,
Today I wanted to write for the contest that is running by @senehasa here is the link:
- Happiness...
When Nico was born he had many loving people around him and since he could remember he recalls the time when his mother brought him to bed and read him “Good night” story. Every time when he was listening them he thought that he will not fall asleep and listen to the end of story but it was not the case, sometimes after the story started thee next he remembers that he was waking up in the morning. He was always disappointed and the next evening he was listening to continuation of his story. That was their ritual for the night.
He also remembers very well his time with his father when they both were playing football, how he was taught to kick a ball and how he could play the whole day long and at the end of the day he was very happy and tired but satisfied.
He also loved his grandparents who were there for him, he loved to be there because he was allowed to do many things that he was not allowed by his parents. The life was great and he felt himself the happiest person and he wished that this never ends.
- Accident...
One day when his parents brought him to his grandparents for weekend he again was very busy with his friends and also planned to stay longer that evening and maybe to help his grandpa with the animals on his farm. When they returned in the evening he saw his grandmother who was looking very stressed, she was looking at Nico and his grandpa but she was somewhere else in her thoughts. Nico asked “what is wrong, granny?” but did not get an answer. His grandparents sent him inside of house and even allowed to play his computer game that usually was not really allowed in the past.
Later on in the evening when Nico came to dinner, his grandparents sat down at the table and started a gentle conversation. They explained that his mum and dad had an accident and will not come back. They also said that Nico now will stay with them.
First, Nico did not really understand what that means, he just thought that it was a joke and it was prolong weekend, but few days later, he started missing the gentle touch of his mother, her voice and her warm lips on his forehead. He also missed the strong arms and shoulders of his father when he was riding on his shoulders and thought that his father is the strongest person in this world.
Now, when he realised that they never come back, he felt very lonely and it was so scary, nobody could help him and calm him. He just wanted to be alone and also to die so that he is with his parents. He knew that his grandparents love him very mush and he also loved them he then decided that it is his responsibility to be there for his grandparents to be their hope and to be their chain to his parents. They were sharing a sorrow together with the hope that time will heal.
I am inviting following users for contest @dequeen, @memamun, @sitaraindaryas
I was immediately reminded of the 2015 film "Inside Out".
It is a 2015 American animated film produced by Disney and Pixar Animation Studios.
Es una historia tan triste y conmovedera que trastoca en alma. Un accidente que la inocencia de un niño no puede comprender cambia su vida para siempre. Compartir su dolor con sus abuelos significa una luz de esperanza posterior a la tragedia que aliviará sus penas, su soledad y la ausencia de sus padres.
Gracias por compartir, saludos éxitos..!
