love in separation (Completed)

a day of winter

A day of winter

I was quite frustrated because of the cold with every passing day it was getting chilly outside. Even staying inside is like a typical slow poison.I was more than angry and wanted to revenge the cold when my husband Krishna came and sat beside me.

I lovingly call him Lordy. He was back from his workout and looking damn hot in his black t-shirt and gray tracks. A cup of coffee in his hand and same mischievous glint in his eyes he determinedly pulled off the covers.

I immediately hugged myself tightly. First words that came out of my lips were *GOD WILL NOT FORGIVE YOU FOR TORTURING ME WITH THIS WINTERY COLD,* he laughed that amazing laugh of his and winked- *I AM GOD MYSELF.* That's when we both froze. Lordy who was always talkative for the first time appeared silent and I had nothing to say.

I looked at his eyes this time to recognise him. I avoided looking at him as much as I can because his charms were beyond anything worthy of description. A smile of his was enough for me to swoon with love or faint with its intensity but today I saw that familiar way his face glowed. He was my Kanha but how could this happen. We were married for two months and in this two months I playfully bickered with him. Sometimes even fought with him and other times teased him for his obvious charm that was irresistible but never in million years I thought he was none other than Kanha.

My eyes were filled with tears on seeing the Lord of my life standing before my eyes that always visioned him and him alone. All my cold was long forgotten. I jumped up from my bed and fell at his feet.

"Prabhu you are unbelievable I never identified you. You were so close yet so far from me. I would never be able to forgive myself for being so frank and childish with you."

How was I supposed to face him. I ran away from the room the way I wake up wearing a thin top and skirt that did nothing to protect me from cold. I was really sensitive to cold and the cold chills of winter were like needles piercing my body but all I can think of was my husband and My Krishna are one and I failed to recognise him.

As I was sitting in the bank of Narmada river since it was too early and cold I heard the voice of lady who was their with her sakhis.

"Would you buy Kanha," she asked me. I was stunned. I had no idea they still do this ritual as I have never seen it before by my eyes.

"What do you have to buy him?" she asked further.

"I am sorry, I got nothing," I replied. That's when another voice interrupted us.

"She will buy Kanha." I looked back to see My lordy standing behind me.

"So what are you willing to pay?"

"In how much will you sell him?" He continued further.

I had tears in my eyes.I don't know what to answer but the Lady smiled and said what about we let her she sing his glory, if we like her voice. Kanha is hers.

He smiled encouragingly at me- "Now my honor is at stake. You have to pay the price." I felt my self loosing in his words.

Me hu tumhari hai
tumhara ye mera jeevan
Tumko hi dekhu me
dekhu koi darpan
Bansi ban jaungi
in honthon ki ho jaungi
In sapno se jagmag
hai mera Mann angan

(Me and my life belong to you. I see your reflection in every part of my life. I want to become your flute and belong solely to you, that's my ultimate goal and only dream)

As I sang the words they handed me his idol, Take him, he rightfully belongs to you now.

I looked at Kanha who waited for ladies to leave after pooja and as soon as we were alone his arms enveloped me into them.

"Jaya you had me frightened there. What was going in your mind. Treating me as your husband is equal to sin for you. I didn't know that."

I was shivering with cold but his warmth grounded me. He lifted my chin up and then bent down to kiss my forehead.

"I had plans to enjoy our lazy winter morning together cuddling with each other and you have to go and ruin it all but since now you already ruined it,"  He pulled me along so I was sitting next to him. His arms lazily draped over my shoulders and my head found rest on his shoulders, "Let's enjoy the beauty of love and nature together Sweety," he completed with his signature smile.

I smiled back I was truly blessed to have him next to me. My love and my Lord had accepted me as his and that's when my eyes fell on the idol I just paid for. I completed in my mind and he too rightfully belonges to me as well.
