I am waiting foy you up there!
#WritcoStoryPrompt37
The severely malnourished child was on the verge of death. I quickly set up an IV to give him much needed nutrition and other supplements.
Hours later when he was stable I turned in anger upon the illiterate parents. " Why are you starving this child? He needs proper food! "
Tears dropped down the broken, skeletal man who stood before me with folded hands. "Look around you, Doctor Sahib, the land is dead. We have no food."
We have no money either to buy anything.
Our area's higher authority is all we have to fulfil our needs but they take care of us when they need us like when the election comes. I was not like that sir. I was very hard working man but I myself was stuck at home in this pandemic. I lost my job, nothing to eat. I used to beg on streets for food. But mostly met people like me who also lost their jobs and got something barely to survive. The authority says "Be our slaves then we will pet you and give you meals three times a day!" What should we do? We are forced to die. The truth I have realised is the world is mostly for the dishonest and the one who is ready to be a slave. The hardworking and honest just dies one day. All the pleasure is for the corrupt only. The lesson I learned late in life. What we got you see, a small home, with empty vessels. The vehicle of the authority passes daily from the front road but they never bothered to stop and ask "Do you need aomething? My only mistake was that I complained to the higher authority for using the funds for the purpose of buying their own property instead of building our road. You think it's hard to see us dying. No! It's hard to see those goons living with our money having a luxurious money and we the stupid selling ourselves to earn money for them. The doctor was really struck by the words, how the man looking like just a labourer have so much vast and true knowledge of life and is fed up by the corrupts. The doctor just did his job and let them go. He just gave them some food. The man after two months died leaving behind a note, " This is trial that starts just before death and ends after you get justice up there, I am waiting for you up there!"
