Seher's POV
A wide smile curved up on my lips as I stepped down onto my mother land, India. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, feeling the cold wind of Amritsar gently brushing up against my cheeks as if welcoming me.
"India..." I mumbled with a content smile.
"Oh how I missed you" I added opening my eyes.
After completing all the formalities and collecting my luggage I walked out of the airport.
"Hey! Dr. Rajput!" I heard a familiar voice calling out for me.
As I glanced around to look for the source of the familiar voice, my eyes landed on a figure standing a little far away from me, leaning against her car.
"Bani!" I exclaimed before letting go off my luggage and quickly running towards her as she approached me in quick strides.
"Oh my God! Bani" I mumbled as she pulled me into a bear hug.
"Seher! I missed you so much" She said.
"Why didn't you tell me that you were coming to receive me?" I asked pulling away, smacking her arm playfully.
"It wouldn't have been such a surprise then, would it?" She replied.
"Now I get it, this is why you were being so interrogative" I said with an eyebrow raised.
"When will you land? What time is your flight?" I added mimicking her.
"Enough now" She said.
"And let's go and surprise the Rajput's" She added with a mischievous grin.
"Yeah let's go. I cannot wait to see their reactions..." I paused as we grabbed my luggage.
"Especially papa's. I have told them all that I won't be back until another week or two" I continued as we got into her car and she drove away, towards my place.
"God! It feels like nothing has changed" I mumbled while staring out at the busy and familiar streets of my hometown, Amritsar.
"That was our school! Wasn't it?" I asked excitedly while glancing at Bani who was looking ahead and drinking.
"Yes it was, Seher" She replied with a small smile.
"Gosh! I feel like crying...it's just now that I'm realising how badly I missed this place" I said before looking out of the window once again, like an overly excited child.
"What are you laughing at?" I asked, looking at Bani as I heard her chuckling lightly.
"Nothing. It's just that you are behaving like a typical NRI" She replied while shaking her head.
"Well...that's where you are wrong, because I'm definately not a non resident Indian, Bani" I said.
"Yeah yeah but you know what I meant" She replied.
"Yeah I know, I know" I mumbled before looking out of the window yet again.
It wasn't long before we reached my place and as I got off the car, I couldn't help but feel like I was finally back where I belonged.
"Home sweet home" I murmured with a soft smile playing on my lips.
"What are you looking at?" Bani asked, standing beside me.
"Nothing...just admiring the place I spent my childhood at" I replied.
"Well then what are we waiting for? Let's go inside" Bani said, excitedly as I nodded before walking inside.
