‘I am in love, and he is simply perfect for me’. Smilingly, she dreamed of their life together.
A beep from the mobile broke her reverie.
Her smile froze as she saw the picture sent by a colleague on Whatsapp.
‘Ignorance indeed is bliss’, she thought to herself as a lone tear escaped her eye.

Oh sad:(
Good 55er, shilpa. I believe in this adage, Ignorance is bliss 🙂
True, ignorance is bliss, while it lasts. But when you know the reality, it hurts a lot! 😐
What exactly happened?
What do you think?
so much conveyed in so less words !!
Thanks Sreeja 🙂
Did he broke up with her..??
Could be!! 😛
Ignorance is indeed bliss Shilpa! Why u weaving all sad stories BTW .. The dog story n now this broke my heart I tell yea! Maybe a indication of what prolific writer u are becoming 🙂
Sad stories… well, they are happening just by chance 😀
Thanks Meena, glad these stories here touch you! 🙂
The man she was in love with loved someone else? I wonder what was in that photograph!
There are a lot of possibilities for the reader to imagine!! 😀
Nobody seems to have a clue about what was in the photograph. Are you making a counterpoint that ignorance is not bliss?
Obviously, there was something in the pic that made her realize that ignorance was bliss!! 🙂
A break up ?
A broken glass is considered lucky,though
Yess!!
Suspense is killing me. What was in that picture?
Something unpalatable, I believe 🙂

Sad! Wondering what the picture was… He with another girl, he in an accident…
Very imaginative, OM 🙂
So what’s the picture all about? Did he break up with her, did he drink poison?
Very nicely written 55er though 🙂
Drink poison… haha… you are so creative Anu!! Never thought about that 😀
How sad and heartbreaking. Just when she was so happy to be in love. Great 55 words♥
Agree… truly a sad situation to be in! Thanks Kathy 🙂
I think the colleague sent the picture of the guy in question as his boyfriend… my take on the story 🙂
A possibility, close to what I thought 🙂
