My Love

Author's POV

The hot burning liquid cascaded down her throat making her close her eyes in bliss. A cup of tea always makes her day.

The wind was blowing smoothly caressing her face. A small smile was playing on her lips as she took another sip of the brewing ginger tea.

Finally today was the day she has been waiting since forever. The day of the product launch event. The preparations were done, everything was set.

A mixture of so many emotions were creating a havoc inside her. Nervousness, excitement, fear and finally happiness.

Though the weather was making her a bit tensed. It was gloomy and windy. Possibilities of rain were quite high but still she was hoping for the best.

"I have ironed your clothes" Namisha said taking a seat on the chair beside her. Saanvi gave her a smile and forwarded a cup towards her.

They were sitting in the garden while sipping on their favouraite tea. She had no work today so she was relaxing at home. She only has to go the event and make sure the preparations are well, just for confirmation.

Also, she decided to stay throught the event, if something happens then she would be there to solve it. She just doesn't want to take any chance.

"You should take a nap, Saanvi" Namisha suggested looking at her tired self. Saanvi was too excited to close her eyes even for a second so sleep was far from her eyes.

Still she gave a thought to what her mother suggested. She indeed was feeling tired and a nap will make her feel more fresh and active in the evening..

"Yeah" she mumbled keeping the empty cup on the small table. A yawn left her mouth making Namisha chuckle as she slightly hit Saanvi's head making her smile.

Saanvi laid back on the soft matress and smiled glancing at the clock. It was 2:00 pm and the event will start by 7:30 pm.

Soon her eyes got closed and sleep engulfed her completely.

The earring fell from her shaky hands and she huffed loudly. The anxiety was killing her. It was almost 6:30 and she was not ready yet.

She took the earring again and put in on her earlobe..finally.

Tying her long hair in a simple ponytail, she gave a last look to herself in the mirror. Clad in a simple floral dress, she was looking beautiful.

"Don't forget to carry the umbrella" Namisha spoke entering the room. Saanvi nodded and called the cab.

"Maa please eat the dinner. I might get late" Saanvi requested making Namisha sigh sadly.

"You know right? I can't eat without you" Saanvi smiled at her mother and shook her head.

"But you need to take medicines as well, just this time, Maa" she pleaded trying to make her understand, "Though I will try to come before ten but chances are not very positive about that" Saanvi finished thinking about the event which is going to take a lot of her time.

"Fine" Namisha agreed finally and continued her work as she was arranging pile of clothes inside the wardrobe.

The cold wind welcomed her as soon she stepped outside her house. She looked up at the sky with pleading eyes and mumbled.

Please god pleaseee. Just tonight.

No rain pleaseeeee.

Though it wasn't raining at the moment but the weather wasn't good either. It was clear that it would rain soon and rain will come along with storm which can harm the event.
