Stach's short story contest #23: 199words

in #stach7 years ago

Mum was gonna travel for a month cos she had work to do in another state, she packed up her bags and repeated these words severely

stay indoors and don't look for trouble

We weren't used to staying alone cos mum has always been with us since Dad passed away 3years ago.
The day Dad died is the only day whose event I can recall like it was just yesterday.
Incidentally, he left us to the airport to travel out too, after having breakfast, we went together happily sharing some stories with each other while in the car.
Dad wasn't so happy he was leaving his children but he was sure mum would take care of us till he returned.
The sad event occurred when the plane took off, not up to 30killometres from us and exploded in mid-air.

It was like a dream or a movie but till today, I keep replaying this sad movie in my mind and wishing we could have prevented that day from occurring in our life.

This wouldn't stop mum from travelling cos she had to make ends meet right?.
We only prayed that we never see such blood red sky
