Shravan: Yes, this is the woman I married, you see. I confessed the biggest truth of my life to her barely an hour back. And now she is in the kitchen, overseeing dinner preparations for us. As if nothing at all had happened between us. I had not burst out angrily at her a day before- in front of the whole world, I had not waited for her for a whole day today to apologies, neither of us had cried...it was just a regular day!
Who said I am complaining? I am not. I am just admiring her. What gives her so much strength to forgive everything in the blink of an eye? What makes her merge in with her surroundings so beautifully? Who could tell she was the newest member of this family? In a matter of days, how does she know how each one of us likes our food! Quite a talent it is! A Super Sumo- a Superwoman- she is!
Suman: Today of all days, I would love to be with Shravan all alone...Sumo ka Shravan. I want him all to myself. But that wouldn't be possible or appropriate.
I simply want to be a part of everything he does. I want to be around him all the time. How selfish and overbearing I can be..and so uncaring...Like the old Sumo- so full of myself. I wish to be the same carefree Sumo today, so long as I can have the only thing I want- be with him. Sigh...
How vain I am, Shravan! Of course, I am not the all' of your life. You have your profession, your family...and now your Sumo...
And that is why your Sumo stands here, relishing the happiness on your face as you catch up with the things you have missed about your mom. I am so glad you have her back in your life. I know how much your heart feels lighter today thanks to her, and I am grateful for that. The bond between a child and mother- so sacred, so sweet...I could hug you now, Shravan.
Shravan looked up just then and glanced towards Suman. He wished she was here, sharing these moments with him!
