The story that never was..

The crowd swarms around the mangled car. "Is there someone you can call?"..asks the doctor. I askthe doctor to dial...the pain comes in waves..

...he picks up the call , and as usual, says " I'm busy, can i call you back, please?".

I should have told him my words were coming true - "One day when i call to tell you i am dying, you'll promise to call back, and i'll die waiting for the call that never comes".

Maybe in another life, i think, as i close my eyes and life ebbs out....slowly.
