Eddie and Maya were a couple who loved each other deeply. They had fallen in love at their workplace and were married successfully for the last 26 years. They only had a 25 year old son, Mason.

Eddie got up early in the morning thinking of how beautiful the day would be. However, Maya usually gets up and does some gardening work. However, when Eddie got up, he found Maya sleeping peacefully next to him. He thought that she might be busy as she is undergoing chemotherapy sessions quite frequently.
After some time, Maya called out for Eddie in pain. She was soon taken to the hospital. As Eddie waited outside with Mason, the doctor walked from the room with a grim face. He told them that Maya is spending her last few minutes of life. Eddie was aware that her condition was worsening but never imagined that she would be gone soon.
Eddie rushed to her side and spoke to her in a calm voice. She consoled Eddie and told him how to live his life in her absence. As she had passed on, Eddie felt as if he had suddenly lost all the strength he had in his life.
Mason took Eddie home and got into planning the funeral. Days passed, the funeral was over but Eddie still found it tough to survive without his partner by his side. Everything in his life seemed to be empty. There was no one to cook for him, no one to sleep and get up beside him every morning and no one to share jokes, have small fights and spend time with him.
Even Though Mason tried his best to support his father through the tough times, Eddie was always reminded of his wife. He found it tough to cope with the loss of loved one.

Getting comfort from the loss of a loved one will not help the person so much when they lose the loved one with whom they were very close. However, life has to move on and people should continue living their lives despite of all odds.
