In Remembrance of my first Wife

Missed you again

Poorna POV

Friday night

Everyone gathered for dinner.

While having food, I observed all are whispering something. I know they all are waiting for my decision, but they feel hesitate to ask me.

To redress the balance, Praveen cleared his throat and started to talk about his today's work and other random things.

After our dinner, I went straight away to my room and sat on the coach.

Someone knocked the door,  It turned out to be Praveen. He came in and sat beside me.

There was a dumbness in the room.

Praveen initiated the talk about my studies, exam schedules, project viva and about my future plans.

We had a conversation for about half an hour.

Later he asked,"when will you be leaving back to college?".

"Sunday night in train", I replied.

He whispered with a smile,"So you are ready for Sunday's program".

Praveen... I stammered.

He said, "Dad informed everything happened in the morning about your marriage proposal".

"Before coming to our home town, I didn't expect that my life is going to change. I know you all have anticipated a lot about this and whatever the decision you take will be for my well being only. I hope everything happens for good only", I uttered.

He caressed my head and said, "First we all need your consent. Don't confuse yourself. It's your life dear. Take your own time and settle on. Sleep well now. Good night."

"Good night". I murmured.

Poorna I forgot to say," while coming home I saw your friend, she enquired about you and asked you to call her", said Praveen.

Hummm... I nodded and he left the room.

I laid down on the bed watching the ceiling and making myself to sleep.

Believing that something good may happen, I boarded the bus and started my travel to Akash's place.

I reached his place, went upstairs and slept for few hours.

Saturday morning

Poorna POV

I got up in the morning took a head bath. I went to my balcony to enjoy the scenic beauty.

I heard my mom's voice and came out of my room and saw my mom serving food to Praveen and Pooja, my dad is reading a morning magazine and my grandparents watching the
news.

After getting ready, I came downstairs.

"Mom, I am going to the temple and will have my breakfast later" , I informed.

I am surprised, nobody said anything. My mom just nodded.

I asked Praveen to drop me in temple as my scooty was out of fuel.

I took necessary items for puja and left with Praveen.

On the way he asked," Poorna how will you go home?".

We reached the temple.

"My friend will drop me in her scooty. She is waiting there ", I showed him.

On seeing us, She waved her hand happily.

Praveen bid goodbye to us and started to work.
