Chennai

The sky tinted with the shade of orange ,faintly chirping of birds ,dewdrops over grass, the golden rays of the sun finding its way into the households, all these were indicating a new fresh day which was awaiting for the people.

The golden rays that made their way through the gap found between screens of the window hit directly on her face making Shalini rise from her deep slumber, slowly opening her eyes and trying to be fully awake tossed herself upright to face the ceiling .

That is when she realized a hand wrapped around her waist, she turn towards her right to get into her old position and by looking at the face of the person ,who was into his deep slumber beside her hugging her and cuddling into her, her a lips curved into a smile by the thought that this face which has kept her lively ,the face which was and is her happiness , her strength and also her weakness . The face which was her only reason to live in this world. Breaking her thoughts she just placed a strong kiss on his forehead in a way of expressing all the love for him, disturbed by the kiss his eyebrows narrowed.

Sensing his discomfort she pulled herself back a little and whispered a "sorry" making sure it did not reach his ears . She took his hands which were hugging her waist and placed them softly on the bed. She sat up straight and made him comfortable and placed a blanket over him and got down the bed and made her way to the washroom to begin her day.

When she returned back from the washroom ,the beautiful frame where he was hugging her by her shoulders and kissing her on her cheeks which was on the opposite wall caught her eyes making her smile and turn towards the side of the bed . Seeing him still being in his own dream world she left out a relaxed sigh she left out of the room making sure the noise of the door does not disturb his sleep.

Getting out of the room she reached the kitchen downstairs , she made tea for herself and made her way to the balcony of the living room upstairs, while leaning on the rails of the balcony her eyes caught a scene of a happy elderly couple , walking with their granddaughter which bought a unknown painful smile.

Eyeing the time on the wall clock opposite to her she jerked and as if realizing something she quickly rushed downstairs and opening the main door she saw her maid selvi who was all ready to press the calling bell, she glared at her which made the lady smile sheepishly. Letting her in and locking the door again she turned to her and spoke.
