Time Lapse

“I will always be with you, my princess can’t be let alone”

“Call me whenever you need, ok? I will reach you in no time”

“Is that very urgent? Can I call you back after my meeting?”

“I’m busy, I will see you when I’m free”

“(Automated voice message) The number you have dialed is busy, please try again later”

“(Automated voice message) The mobile phone you have called has been switched off, please try again later”

The princess walks alone now. No more anticipation of any call… Streets away, a beggar is staring at a mobile phone he found on the road.
