A reason to live.

Chapter 27

The next month went on as usual, I did try to keep myself fit, I joined a gym and did some workout in the morning,  I was constantly pampered and made to eat, just because I was the new bride ... I didn't want to become fat!! 

Going to work,  meeting my parents,  and my friends occasionally,  spending time with my parents in law, talking to Jun for an hour or so every night ... just rambling , was what my day was.

I have a flight tonight at 9:30pm to Dubai. I will be spending 10 days with Jun and we will be returning for Easter, and he got his placement in Chennai, he starts work in Chennai after Easter.

My parents considered my trip as a honeymoon, so they were happy that I was leaving... lol

In the airport

I was filled with mixed emotions. I was excited as I was going to meet Jun, but nervous as I have never been on a flight, I felt butterflies in my stomach.

After the security check, I asked a staff for directions. I knew I was going the right way as there were many signs indicating where one should head to, but I just wanted to make sure.

As I went in I realized the different people who were entering the flight,  some were in a hurry,  a few of them walked in coolly, I noticed a few newlyweds who walked hand in hand and exchanged shy glances.

I was welcomed into the flight by a smiling air hostess,  I found my seat and made myself comfortable. I kept looking out of the window till the flight started.

Just before takeoff, I called my parents and informed them,  I quickly texted Jun that the flight had started, and he replied.

I listened to music for a while, then for a few hours,  I read a book – to dance with a prince by Cara Colter  I've read this book a couple of times and I really like the way the characters' emotions are written in it,  it always makes me smile and I drift to dreamland reading it.

Soon there was an announcement that we were landing,  I buckled my seat belt, put the book in the bag.

The flight landed and everyone moved out,  I stepped out and took my bag,  I had only one bag. I took it and went out.

I saw Jun standing and smiling at me,  I don't know what got over me,  I flashed a smile, waved at him, skipped and almost ran to him. We fist bumped " hi " we both said and he gently tapped my nose with his index finger. He took my bag and we walked to the car. As soon as I stepped out of the airport the cool breeze hit me and it immediately took all my anxiety and I relaxed, I was too sleepy, it was around 1am IST but here it was 11:30 pm.

We went home,  he opened the door and let me in,  I was exhausted I didn't really see how the home was,  realizing that I was tired, Jun led me to the bedroom. I freshened up and changed to a night dress and tucked myself into bed, after a few minutes I felt the mattress move, soon I felt Jun's warmth around me,  I unconsciously moved closer and drifted to deep slumber.
