Get ready tonight! Will pick you up from home. We are going out
for a dinner date. Just wait down at the
gate was what Avinash told Gayatri. To
give you a short brief, Gayatri is in her late 30s and Avinash just 5 years
elder to her.
Life passed on for both with Avi getting busy in his
corporate life and Gayatri taking care of her daughter and with the household
stuff. All of a sudden, this call put
her a little uneasy as to why Avi would want to take her out (without any rhyme
or reason) for a dinner night.
As always, she did not know what to wear. She remembered her days of courtship with Avi
when she would wear the choicest of outfits -
crisp chudidars with the collar neck and she looked impeccable in
that. Avi could never take her eyes off
her and she would drown in all the attention he showered on her.
Things were a little different now with both of them
becoming busy in their respective jobs. With time drifting, there was a little
drift in their relations as well, thanks to their daughter growing up. Avi climbed the ladder of success to such a
great extent that he practically had no time for Gayatri. She too wanted him to
do professionally well and gave him all the space he desired.
What happens when two people who loved each other so
much, suddenly drift apart after years? Is
there nothing more to talk and discuss other than kids, their studies. The lady
is either too busy with her household chores and kids education that she
somehow forgets that she has a duty towards herself as well.
Why do we tend to put our likes and feelings always at
the backend? We need to know that only
when we are happy, we will be able to keep others happy as well. What is the
point if we are trying to play the martyr and keep sacrificing things that
people love about us. Gayatri now wanted
to look her best and though she had put on a little weight, the curves did look
attractive on her. She looked quite the
Indian feminine beauty with the innocent look.
She gazed outside the window and it took her years back,
when they were dating each other, the first time when Avi proposed her and how
he had fallen head over heels for her. He
could not take his eyes off her when she had just entered his cabin for an
interview.
Gayatri gave a long sigh. She could not be late. Why was she feeling anxious and tensed ? She had
dated Avi years back, after that it was the usual routine. But this sudden
going out for a date. It was a mix of
anxiety with a little fear. Did Avi find
her as attractive even now as he did years back. So many questions to which she
surely did not have the answers.
She draped a beautiful chiffon saree that clearly clinged
to her body. Put on her big red bright bindi, applied the kaajal and looked
absolutely ravishing and after wearing Avi’s favorite perfume – it just
completed her look.
Wait to read more about the story…….
