Lily was so excited about her marriage. It would be in the next day and she was taking the last time preparation. All the arrangement were done and all were waiting for the ceremony. Lily phoned her fiance at night and talked with him for a while.

Everything was fine until the wedding morning. Lily was dressing up her white bridal gown and that time got a knock on the door. It was her fiance and he let him in though she didn't expect him right then.

Another thing she noticed was he was not smiling at her. She felt something very wrong. Then he showed her a report. To her utter surprises she saw it was of her fertility test. It turned out that Lily was barren. He said no more words and cancelled the wedding.

She was so upset. She cried all the day closing her door. She enclosed her within that room for couple of days. But she didn't cry over the break up but over her diagnosis. She wanted kids so much and that report had vanished her all dreams in a second.

After this she took a job as a teacher in a kids' school. She mixed with the kids as if she were their teacher. She taught them as if they were her own children and so the children also loved her so much. Soon she got her life back.

One day she was going to the teacher's room from her class. And then suddenly she met the man of her dreams. She was walking in absent mind and hit Nick. He was her colleague and knew each other. Nick was reliable, smart and handsome. After being hit, he just smiled at Lily.

Lily knew that he already had a baby. And one day after school, Nick invited her to his house. There she met her to his daughter, Sophie. She was a sweet little girl of 5 years and her mom had died when she was 2.

Lily took a gift for Sophie. They hit it off right away. She was so happy getting the gift. They had dinner together. And whenever Lily got time, she went to Nick's home. She sometimes cooked meal for them and eat together. This continued and soon Nick and Lily got closer. They became more than colleagues.

Nick asked Lily to move in with them. And she was eagerly waiting to live with her dream man and that little daughter. A month later he proposed to her and she agreed. Things happened so quickly. It's truly said happy time passes quickly and Lily could understand that.

She was walking on air. But her fairytale only lasted 6 months. One day she and Nick was decorating the living room. And suddenly he passed out!

Lily became so tensed and took him to the hospital immediately. It turned out that he was terminally ill and that day he fell into a coma. Lily sat beside her and prayed for him to wake up. But he didn't.

And this was not the only shocking news because another one was waiting for her. She left Nick at the hospital and went to home. She told everything to Sophie and she became so sad. She told Lily that her dad had promised her that he would not leave her alone and find her a good mom.

Lily hugged her and cried. But things became clear to her. It was the reason why he was in such a rush. She became angry thinking that Nick wasn't looking for a wife but a mom for his daughter. She thought he had just used her.

At night she put the ring to the bed side table. And then went to Sophie's room. She was sleeping. Lily looked at the sleeping innocent face and thought herself that she wanted a child so badly and Nick had made her dream come true. And that's when she took the decision.

The next morning, she went to see Nick. But he was still in coma. She sat by his bed and said, "Nick, I know the whole truth. And I forgive you. Please come back to me and Sophie." She was feeling intense love for him. She sat for about 2 hours and then left for home.

The next day when she went to the hospital, a surprise was waiting for her. Nick woke up from coma and was waiting for her. She rushed to him and hugged him too. He smiled and said that he wanted to find the best mom for his little girl and he did it. Lily also smiled and felt love for the family.

Nick continued saying that he had fallen in love with Lily in the process. He said that what they had was real. And those words made her so happy. She now know that the person she loved also loved her back. She felt she had got a true family.

They don't know how much longer Nick has left. But they live each day as if it were the last one. They spend more time with each other and also has gone in tours. They has enjoyed the time so much.

Spend more time with those you love because they won't be around forever. And appreciate life while it still lasts.

What a lovely story. There might be people whom you thought would make your dreams come true but at the same time, they could also be the ones who will ruin it. But, God will send His Angel to heal our broken hearts and make our dreams come true.

Those people are truly a blessing to us. We should live our lives to the fullest with the people who made us special because you're right, we never know how much time is left for us. If only our life is unlimited, then we could have taken our time, with slow pacing in life.

Life is a blessing. So, for as long as we still have the time, spend more time with our loved ones and spreading kindness to everyone.

I am agreed with you. And the first para is quite true. People actually can never be 100% perfect. For this sometimes they make and ruin our lives. But by the love we forget the others. We should surround people as we are lest it should be late.

Yes but sometimes things are too much to smile. But we always try to forget the black parts and move on.

Very interesting story. This is a lesson to hold on tight to ourselves that this life is very fragile and little. We need to make memories and love people around us. Let's appreciate what life gives to us and be kind to everyone around us.

Thank you for realizing. We actually want to be surrounded by the loving people and when it happens life becomes beautiful. That's when we get the meaning of life.
