“Reena you see that white Toyota parked, that’s my house.” Oh my God!! This is like a house I see in movies. The landscaped garden done up well with a small fountain bowl for the birds to drink and dip themselves in water during the sunny climate.
“Reena, is anything wrong?”
“Nothing you have a beautiful landscaped garden.” She smiled.
“Her smile will let anyone forget its worries.” Mann hee mann mein Rahul was thinking.
“Chalo let’s go inside.” They both got down the car. Reena got wet as she entered inside. She was speechless looking at the interiors of the hall area and the passage walk path. While, gazing around, her eyes went on the photo frames. She paused for a moment. “Who’s the one next to you in photo?” Reena asked Rahul in a teasing tone with a naughty smile.
“Namarata my wife, she did the entire interior and exterior works, an interior designer, does freelancing so if there is any call for work, she goes. ”
“Wow. That’s nice. So is she home?”
“No, she is Delhi at the moment for a clients renovation work. She would be back tomorrow afternoon. Hey! You better go and change. Wait I will call out for Ramu kaaka. “Mean while, Rahul called Ramu kaaka. “Kaaka yeh Reena madam hai. Inhone ghar tak drop kiya. Ek kaam karo; enko upar kamre mein lekar jaoo aur ek towel dedo. Saath mein Namarata ka cupboard bhi dhikado taki yeh apne kapdae badal sakae.” Rahul turned, looked at Reena. “Go with kaaka and get changed.”
“Thanks.” Saying this Reena walked upstairs with Ramu kaaka, entered the room. Kaaka opened the cupboard handed a towel to Reena, told her that she could change into the madam’s clothes. “Beti kuch chahiyae toh awaaz karna” He smiled and closed the door. In the hall, Rahul switched on the lights, lit the fire place and played his favorite all time hits song “rim jhim rim jhim” from the movie 1942 A Love story. Looking at the photo kept above the fire place, he smiled, and recalled the time when he first met Namarata. It was 1 year back, during the same July month, when he proposed her and got married exactly after a week, 14th July, 2011. It’s a surprise that he’s planned for her for this anniversary. Just then;
“Tring Tring.” Rahul answered the call.
“I have died everyday waiting for you,
Darling don’t be afraid I have loved you,
For a thousand years,
I'll love you for a thousand more.” Rahul was speechless.
“Hi honey crunch. How are you? ”
