The Safari
"When I say my dad had given his life for me. I'm talking about the real deal and nothing shut of that. I used to call him an old man but he wasn't old in any bit. He was a young man who was healthy and full of life. He took me on Vacations to several continents and my most memorable trip by default was traveling to Africa on a Safari tour. That was when the incident happened." I said to her and felt the moistness in my own eyes all over again. She wasn't really an empathetic human, if she was then she would not have achieved a dime from the students at The Orbit. All she wanted to listen to was a story that projected me as something she could either live with or something she could reject. Her curiosity was not about concern for me. It sprouted from her depths to learn more.
" It's a long story from my past. A dark niche in the sides of mind which I hate to visit for reasons Best known to me. " I said to her and breathed deeply to find my relief.
