Ohio, USA.
The hinterland is farmed for harvests of Barley, Maize and Rice. The city is surrounded by beautiful farmlands, barns and country houses.
A city college had hired me as a lecturer. I got educated In USA and had found a job as well.
I was 20 years old and strolling after dinner was my habit.
I never missed it. That day too when I set out to take a stroll, I went to meet my landlord on the way. I had rented a room on the First Floor. The middle aged landlord lived on the ground floor with his wife of the same age.
Descending the stairs, I happened to look at the backyard garden where a young woman was swinging with abandon.
Some guest relative, I wondered.
After that day I often used to see that girl swinging, from my window.
I would smile at her whenever she glanced in my direction. She would always return the smile.
I wanted to ask my house owner about the girl but I couldn't summon courage.
The life was a routine affair. At weekends, me and my friends used to hold some sort of get-togethers to fill the emptiness.
