"Jingle bell Jingle bell...Jingle all the way...Santa Claus is coming along...Riding on the sleigh"  Randhir sang in his melodious tone.

Sanyukta and Randhir had a christmas party at their home. It was past midnight but Randhir was not asleep yet.

Sanyukta was sitting on the couch and was sipping her hot coffee in chilling weather of December. And when you live in Shimla, you ought to feel it a little bit more.

Randhir was busy in opening gifts and Sanyukta was looking at him. Though not directly but indirectly. She was stealing his glances.

"Ae...Tum aise mat dekho mere gifts ko...kuch nahin milega tumhe..."Randhir warned her when he saw Sanyukta  looking at him.

Sanyukta smiled at him and said ,"Mujhe kuch nahin chaahie. Aap apne gifts aaram se kholiye"

"Toh tum aise mat dekho..Main mumma ko complaint kar dunga" Randhir pouted and then rubbed his nose with the back of his hand.

Sanyukta touched her ears acting as if she was sorry and busied herself in sipping her coffee or at least she pretended so.

Randhir was busy in his Christmas gifts and Sanyukta was stealing his glances and in between those moments, she drifted back to those days where her and Randhir's relationship started.

Randhir and Sanyukta were married from past 5 years. It was an arrange marriage.

Randhir was an introvert who didn't talk much. He was a business man. Sanyukta was a middle class girl who was a teacher before getting married to Randhir.

Randhir didn't have time to devote to their courtship period between engagement and marriage. They didn't know much about each other before marriage.

Sanyukta knew Randhir was a busy man and was an introvert. He didn't talk ir share much. She didn't know much about Randhir but she knew Randhir was a man with golden heart. His little actions proved that to her time to time.

Sanyukta didn't have any complaint against Randhir for not giving her time before marriage. They will live together their whole life and will have enough time to know, to love and to cherish each other. TO TOUCH EACH OTHER's SOUL.

But sometimes, not everything work the way you want it to be.

After getting married, Randhir started to take out time for her but not much. Though Sanyukta still didn't have any complaint about it. This was what she wanted. Their relationship to grow slow and steady.

She already had fallen in love with Randhir over the time since they got engaged though she never confessed it. She never got chance to.

She didn't know anything about Randhir's feelings. He never showed his feelings.

She had touched his soul and now SHE WAS WAITING FOR HIM TO TOUCH HERS.

Days passed and soon they completed one month in their marriage and their parents' decided to send them on holiday as Randhir was continuously busy in his work since after his marriage.

But they didn't know this plan will change their lives.

Sanyukta and Randhir were heading to Nainital from Delhi in their car.

Sanyukta was telling him random stuff and he just nodded and hummed in response.

That was when Sanyukta got an idea. She wanted to see if Randhir was paying attention to her or not.

"I love you"Sanyukta said looking at him.

Randhir didn't know when he turned around to look at her. He was staring into her eyes and was trying to imbibe what she just said.

He was busy in staring into her eyes when he heard Sanyukta shouting and before Randhir could comprehend anything, something hit their car.

And then everything blacked out.

It was a truck which hit their car. And the rest was history.

It had been 5 years to that accident. Sanyukta got badly injured in that accident and Randhir lost his mental balance.

He was a 35 year old man but his mind growth was of a 10 year old kid.

Doctor said they didn't have any hope of Randhir getting better. His and her parents' try to convince her to remarry to which she clearly refused.

And she shifted here in Shimla. To create a new life for Randhir. Away from all the people and relatives who will synpathize him and will try to convince her to remarry.

How could she ? She devoted her life to him since the moment they got into nuptial vows. He was her everything. What if he didn't love her or if love then hadn't confessed his love for her.

She loved him and that was more than anything else to be with him all her life. She didn't know he will get normal or not. But somewhere deep down her heart, she had hope that her love will be reciprocated some day.

"Sanyukta"Randhir's voice pulled her out of her thoughts.

"Ji"Sanyukta replied. What if his mental age was 10 ? Sanyukta showered him with all the respect he deserved.

"Phone baj raha hai"He said.

And Sanyukta realized she didn't hear landline ringing because she was lost in him and his thoughts.

She smiled at him and went to answer the call.

It was his mother's call. Over the years, Sanyukta and Renuka had grown up a bond which was more stronger than her bond with her mother.

When Renuka was about to hang up, she tried again to convince Sanyukta and asked ," What are you waiting for ?"

Sanyukta felt a mother's love for her.

She smiled and said ," WAITING FOR HIM  TO UNWRAP ME SLOWLY...AND TOUCH MY SOUL. And that day never let me lose my hope, Ma ".
