Dedicated to my lovely friend bhatiageeta :))
Love you dear,for the sake of Allah SWT.
The glamorous city of Mumbai joyfully welcomed the arrival of yet another
weekend. Although mild rains had invaded the metropolis this weekend,it didnt
seem to serve as an obstacle or cease the enthusiasm of the celebrating folks
in the least bit.On the contrary,it only elevated their spirits ,giving their tired,weary
souls a touch of renewed joy ,& a refreshing boost to the worked up,gloomy
minds & hearts!!!
Through the window of her quaint ,cozy bedroom, Geet watched the joyous,
blissful atmosphere of the city,And couldn't help smiling at the sight.
She could see children of her apartment ,playing out in the rain,enjoying the
thrilling experience despite their mothers yelling at them to get inside....
well ,that's what made it all the more thrilling ....as children find a strange
satisfaction in ignoring their parent's orders and doing what their little hearts
desire..!!! Geet smiled wider,remembering her own childhood.
Then on the streets,She could see youngsters enjoying the cool,refreshing
rains along with their besties...,What a wonderful feeling that is ...getting wet
like no tomorrow, splashing water on each other,just simply doing crazy things
with your friends ...without a care in the world....!!!
This again brought a gorgeous smile to her graceful face.She thanked Allah
SWT for this showers of Mercy,that had brought smiles and joy to all these
people enjoying down there.Geet didnt even know those people on the
streets,yet she felt happy seeing their happiness .This was something she
possessed,a very unique,beautiful trait of hers,that she found joy in seeing
others joyful!
Though tonight,she was happy for another reason too!!
Those were the remnants of bliss in her beautiful heart .....the joy that
came from being engaged to the guy she loved....and it was only yesterday
that she had gotten engaged.....the blissful memories of that memorable
evening of her engagement was the major reason for her happiness!!!
Now & again,her gaze would fall upon the lovely couples experiencing the
inexplicable joys of enjoying the rains together and it made her own heart
ache in longing...!!!
Well,not that she wouldn't get to experience it, but she would have to wait
till another year to do so....as Mr.Zulaym Ansari would be getting leave in
coming December, and hence the marriage was fixed to be in the said month!!!!
By the time,the rainy season would be long gone....!!!
But oh! It will be winter anyways ...,her heart instantly cheered.
Fine then,atleast something is better than nothing!!!
Geet watched sadly, as a cute couple walked through the rain ,the guy holding
the girl close to him,and then they stopped when the wind grew fierce,and he
so considerately removed his jacket and put it around her slender shoulders....
& then they looked into each other's eyes......
& then......
Geet coughed and turned inside,closing the window shut,not quite appreciating
the next gesture in public!!!!
She settled on her bed,with a sigh and glanced at the open gifts scattered on
her bed.That was how she had spent the day....going through all the
Engagement gifts...
A smile formed on her lips as she stared at the ones which were from her
brothers in law,Afzal,Arhaan,Faisal,& Tahir......
All four of them had attached a small note on top of their gifts:
HEARTY CONGRATULATIONS & WELCOME BHABI..!!!
