Love is the emblem of eternity: it confounds all notion of time; effaces all memory of a beginning, all fear of an end.
CHAPTER 44
I look at the simply dressed girl and understand immediately. The girls condition is better than Maan at least I muse silently. But just like him she looks lost "I am Maan's grandmother"
The girl's eyes widen in surprise at my statement and she looks away.
"How..How is he?"She inquires hesitating.
"He is alive", I provide evasively.
"Alive.... what do you mean alive?"She asks worriedly.
"It means he is still breathing", I say effectively dodging her question.
"Ma'am please tell me, is he okay?"She questions, fear evident in her eyes.
"Geet,he needs you "I tell her softly.
Her expression changes from fear to disbelief and she says "He needs me."
It was not a question, it was a statement, a realization.
