"I have lived my life to the fullest, yet my heart has never been filled with Joy. Ever since I lost my parents, life and death have become a shadow in which I live in-between".
"Look at the bird they have no one to feed them, yet they always get fed daily, I love to forget memories about my parents but it never stops coming".

Come in! "she ordered politely"
He walk-in with a smile seeing Elena sitting on the bed he gently sat on the couch.
Uncle Mike! Hope there is no problem, you wake up early to check on me I guess you have something to say?
Well, I guess so, I would have been at work but today am on leave so I decided to know if you are fine.
Uncle Mike, am always fine if anything bothers me you should be the first person to know about it.
"You know am not always around to check on you due to my work schedules and my wife has been complaining about your loss of appetite this day". Mike said.
Elena took a deep breath stood up from her bed to have a glass of water while she looks to the mirror beside her window:
"My appetite for food can never be regained for now because I have something important to feed on".
"And what could that be?" He curiously asked.
"My thought of course! I need to feed on them in other to erase my fears, pains, and memories. ever since I lost my parents I felt empty like a basket that can never be filled" she said while she gushes out tears!!.
Mike stood up and walked closed in other to console her
"I know how you feel, I also felt the same way. But you should let go of this memory it will never bring the dead back, crying always will never solve the problem rather it will create more problems considering your health is better than hurting yourself think about this!". He said as he walks out of Elena's room.
