First they will make your heart skip beats and then they will make your inside ache until you forget the difference between love and hate

I am working inside my cabin completely engrossed with the file I am holding in my hand and my back is resting on the chair. My hairs are in a messy bun and I am holding a pen which is not useful in writing but I am using it as a lollipop coz it is in my mouth every now and then. Actually I am least bothered about the file I am lost coz I am missing my family still there are two days to go, two more alone nights.

It has been two days since I last spoke to Arav too that day he was not well I thought to ask him but then shooed off that thought coz I don’t want him to take any wrong hints. I asked his managers they said he is doing well.

I again tried to concentrate on the file but failed  when I heard a barking sound of a dog. Was it Bruno? Nah he can’t be here. He is with Adi and mom. A sad feeling passed through my veins coz I miss them like a lot. I decided to concentrate on my file but then I heard a toddler’s voice too. The voice was not clear but somewhat like Adi. I decided to have a check. I threw my pen and file on my desk and stood up. I started walking after shrugging my dress. As soon as I went near the open balcony of 8th floor I saw a not so clear image so far. There was a dog that was literally on a man in a black business clothes and a boy was trying to pull the rope of that dog. I wore my glasses which were stuck in between my shirt buttons. As soon as the view got clear I was more than shock.

“Shit shit shit” I gasped and started running towards the lift. I pressed the button thrice and waited for a minute but there was no sign of lift. I quickly took the stairs and because of my heels it was very difficult for me to walk. I didn’t think twice quickly took the side handle as my support and in no time I got rid of those heels and in the very next moment I started running down the stairs.

Only thing coming in my mind was what is Adi and Bruno doing here? Arav is scared of dogs and I think Bruno recognized him but not Arav. 4 years back, Bruno was my birthday present by Arav. I love pets specially dogs whereas Arav hate dogs. Not exactly hate but he is scared. Shh it’s a secret.

I was in the ground floor now and I quickly started running with my almost lost breathe. Ofcourse If I will run like a maniac that too 8 floors I will be breathless. Still I was running in the corridor holding heels in my right hand and stomach with my left hand.

Soon I got a clear imagine of everyone. Watchman’s were trying to drag Bruno away from Arav while Bruno was not ready to give up he was trying to lick his face. On the other side Adi was almost on the verge of crying but together he was shouting “Mommy mommy please help” that is a sight to watch I swear.

Soon I roared “stop it” I said and all faces were looking at me. Adi quickly hugged me and his hands were above my knees and he started crying. I hugged him back as soon as Bruno saw me he stopped chasing Arav and started licking my hands and legs. Beside Arav is going to kill me I was happy. Happy tears were rolling down my cheeks. My babies are back.

After a good few minutes of family time Adi broke the hug and till that time I also was in normal breathes coz as soon as I stepped here I was breathless. I can see lots of tears were rolling down Adi’s cheeks I smiled at him and pinched his cheeks. “Have you ever saw a superman crying Adi?” I asked him and he nodded in a no. I smiled at his cute reaction and wiped off his tears slowly. “I missed you mommy” he said and I was more than delighted. “Mommy missed you too baby” as soon as I ended the sentence Bruno barked on me and started licking my cheeks. “Yes yes I missed you too baby” I said patting his soft fur.

“He is Bruno” I heard Arav mumbled. I looked at him. His hairs were a complete mess. His clothes were having pawn marks of Bruno and his shirt was crumbled with lots of marks. I nodded and smiled at him.
