"......my last photograph...."

I will not forget my parent's face when I found them talking about me at late night. I was standing beside the curtain and after hearing their cry, I could not cry, I did not want them to feel my presence. I was very afraid that night, wanted badly to sleep with my mother, but I could not as I had to deal with the biggest truth of my life....I was a very attentive student, I had a lot of plans for my future. Then suddenly on that very moment I decided to live my life. I made a plan, what I wanted to do before I die. Everyday I wrote a poetry for myself, I will leave it for my parents as my memory. I spent one day with every friend of mine. I visited all the places I wanted to visit. And suddenly one day I started chatting with a boy in Facebook. I felt he can hear my untold pains. We never meet. I can't take that risk....This is my life's last trip, my parents brought me to see the sea. I told the boy not to wait for me, I told him I will never write him again. He typed, 'I will wait forever'. I do not think I will survive this brain cancer. I have a strong feeling that you are going to take my last photograph.
