I stood there in a trance looking at his retreating figure.
Why was he going away he had promised me he will never leave me. So why now.
It was just eveing..he had left me..
But he will come back ..he will come back na..
Obviously he will..he
might be having some important work.. U saw he left you at the outhouse only
after he got the call..Just give him some time he will come back.
I smiled and went into my room.
It was 5 in the evening. He had dropped me back home after
that so called meeting of his.
I smiled at the memory of it..The meeting.
I was hungry. i decided to make something for myself.
I was walking down into the kitchen when I felt nauseated
and a weird feeling in my stomach too.
I don't know but then I kept my hand on my stomach and I felt
something as though something was moving. I realized it was the first kick I had
got from my baby..no our baby.
I was happy beyond myself. I went back into my room to let
that feeling pass. It didn't take long.
Some ten minutes and I was again back to my normal but now I
was waiting for him more eagerly than before. I wanted him to feel it too. Who
else could I share these small happiness of my life?
I was hungry too and I realized the baby would be hungry
too.
I went into the kitchen and cooked a small meal for myself.
I saw the time it was 6 by now. I decided to wait for him
before I ate something so I went back to my room and sat on the bed thinking
about the day.
I had never seen him so happy before. I was thinking about
him in the office.
I remembered the way he had held my hand when those roses
were flung at us. He knew I was uncomfortable and his eyes that held me to them
made me smile at those roses after months now.
He made sure I was not out of sight for even a minute on the
pretense that I needed to fix up that file I had destroyed and I had no clue
about it, only later to realize that file contained nothing but some old
documents and the presentation file was safe with him.
It was 6:30 I was still sitting there waiting. I decided to
call him. I called him but his phone was unreachable. I decided to call the
main house. At the main house I was told that he was in the house but he had
barred any calls to him and had given strict instructions that even my call was
not to be given to him.
I was startled. What had I done that I was getting this
treatment. He has not left me
He cant he will come back na. I don't know why but the fear
of losing him was
