All experience is an arch wherethrough gleams that untravelled world whose margin fades for ever and for ever when I move.
------ Alfred Lord Tennyson
 
“No she did not even clear her first round of heats” Shruti informed Govind on the phone.

Shruti was indeed upset. Though she nevertheless expected Piu to win with strong broad built girls present at the tournament and wasn't this place a hub for skaters with tough competitors to compete with but still somewhere Shruti expected Piu to clear at least the heats round; final three from which would participate in the semifinals and from the semis final five would be selected for the final race out which top three would be felicitated with silver, gold and bronze medals.

“It's okay. But is Piu fine? She isn't upset?” asked Govind as usual concerned about his dear ones.

“Oh she is such a darling or you can say she is too young to discriminate between victories and loses. Rather she is having great time with her friends over here.” smiled Shruti at her darling daughter’s innocence.

“I am glad that she is.” replied Govind from the other end, his voice breaking. He surely is working with some of his important official matters but protective and concerned that he is he managed to spare some time from his busy schedule.

“Hope my beautiful wife isn't enjoying that much without me.” asked Govind in as seductive tone surprising Shruti making her blush red.

“Nay! I am missing you.” Shruti sighed but did not want to upset Govind about it so added “You can punish me if I enjoy without you” with an added dose of seduction making Govind groan at the other end. He knew exactly what Shruti meant.

“Had I known my wife would get naughty after being away from me, I’d send you often.” Govind stated for the obvious reasons.

“Now I guess you are the one to be punished for thinking of sending me away” purred Shruti.

She smiles and wonders at her own boldness.

Where has the shy Shruti disappeared? She asked herself answer to which was clear that she’d been transformed by Govind’s love.

“Always at your disposal ma’am” Govind offered.

He was briskly affected with the husky conversations between him and his better half as he crossed his legs under the table to avoid any views of his desires to his peers.

Their private moment was disturbed by Piu as she as excited for her name was being called “mama please tie my laces” she added “tight”

“Is it Piu?” asked Govind “pass the phone to her.”

Shruti forwarded the phone to Piu and worked on Piu’s skate her chin bent holding on the low neck of her blouse. Indeed a wrong choice to be worn.

Making a mental note to be careful in choosing her dresses for Piu’s tournament Shruti works on the laces, her ears on Piu’s conversation with her dad.

Govind loved his little sweetheart to the world.

“So how did you skate my peanut?” asked Govind.

“Daddy I ran fast, very fast. I did not look behind. I swung my hands also fast. But I lost.” She frowned smiling again “but I’ll skate faster this time. Okay.”

“It's okay Piu if you lost but you ran fast that was nice and tell me one thing did you bend while skating?” enquired Govind like a concerned father.
