During my sister’s wedding days everybody was so busy that they forgot the birthday of my beloved Mausi. I made her feel special that day and took her to her favourite temple. ”What did you ask to God in your wish?” she asked me.
” A wife like you” I replied walking down the stairs as she clutched my arm firmly and laughed out in a burst.
We two sat in the temple garden, her head leaning on my shoulder, her smooth silky hairs kissing me with the breeze. Little did I know my wish was going to get fullfill the same night.
Mom called. “Where are you son? You are missing the event.”
“The Sweets. I have to wait for them for 2 more hours” I said.
“Ok, come quickly” and she hanged.
“You shouldn’t lie to your mom for me.” She said.
“It’s your special day Mausi, I won’t leave you alone.”
“Why did you made me wear this saree? ” She changed the subject.
“I knew you would look mesmerizing in it”
“But your mom wouldn’t appreciate me wearing it without having informed her”
