Mirror Mirror ........... Whom do I love
It was the day when he was leaving.
He came for few days taking a break of two weeks from office to spend with me and his parents.
Well we are married for more than two years after a courtship of six long years. Before that we had known each other for another three years. We had stayed together the first two years of marriage but I had to come back to our home city for my work.........now we stay in two different cities..........number of days we can see each other can actually be counted.
Now coming back to that day. He had to catch his flight, so we decided to leave early. Me and my mother-in-law decided to go to the airport. We were in a rush before leaving, so there was no warm farewell..........also we belong to such families where we hesitate to hug each other in front of our parents. So everything was untold........and unfelt....I mean not felt.
I was feeling something was stuck in my throat. He is a person who doesn't want to express his feelings, he just wants to feel everything and not express...........I am the one who always wants to express everything coming in mind. I think I wanted to cry which I could not..... may be because I should not.......may be not in front of people or may be I should understand its just a phase of life which will pass very soon.......I don't know.......may be this is why i felt something was stuch in my throat.
The cab came, somehow I felt my Mother-in-law was very sad too. So I let them sit together and sat in the front seat. I can't explain how I was feeling. I could hear them talking but honestly I don't what they were talking about.
I was looking outside the window when suddenly I discovered something that I never expected. It was him, through the side view mirror.......... I could see him from the side view mirror. My saddened heart filled with a sudden blast of happiness. It took few more minutes for him to realise that he can do the same, I assume he was also astonished by such a discovery. It was as soothing as cool shadow of a tree on a scorching summer day, I felt like we are sitting on a cloud, staring at each other and no one is around us. We were actually unnoticed by the world. It was a silent conversation, where we shared our pain of being separated from each other, where we cherished all those memories that we had created together, where we consoled each other saying that " It's ok, it's just a small part of our life, we will be together", where we said "I love you and I love you too"......................we saw each other, smiled and again smiled..........again smiled.....................................smiled again..................till we reached airport.
