Note:
Never done this before, though I like expressing more in writing that vocally.
Give this book a try, it's not a novel, more like a chicken soup. If you are able to go through all of the stories without getting bored, I'll be more than happy.
So, let's just dive right in.Jaana being tired for past 4-5 days, decided to skip one of her online classes and sleep instead. She told her mother, not to wake her up anytime soon so that she can make up for her missed sleep.
She closed her books, went to drink water, came back to the room and switched off lights just to tease her mother who was working on her excel sheet on the laptop. Mother, instantly snapped at her to switch on the lights as she could see the laptop keys. Being in a light mood she switched off the lights and asked her to connect her mobile to the charger on the plug beside her. As hee mother was working, she snubbed jaana and told her that when she'll finish with her work she'll connect her mobile to the charger. Jaana again reminded her so that she doesn't forget, and went to sleep.
As she was about to fall asleep her mother asked her to switch on AC. It was rainy season so it had to be humid, but the weather was getting colder for past 3 days.
Jaana switched on the AC and thought to herself, if it will continue to be switched on the whole time that I sleep then I might end up getting cold. However, she didn't say anything to her mother and slept.(Jaana was diagnosed with persistent sinusitis, 3-4 years ago. The sinusitis was not too problematic hence doctor asked her to keep herself from getting cold so that she doesn't have to undergo a surgery. After that, she has follows a routine in winters, sometimes in summers as well to keep herself safe from cold. Everyone in her family knows this.)
She slept for good 4-5 hours and when she woke up, her throat felt sore. Well, obviously because there was no blanket on the bed. She might have tried to search for it in her sleep but couldn't wake up as she was in a very deep sleep(which is normal for her). She quickly went to heat up water, mixed a tablespoon of honey in it and then was waiting for the evening tea so that something warm goes into her throat.
At night, she was a bit less uncomfortable as she felt if she gargles with saline water before sleeping the cold will be kept at bay. But as she was watching a latest drama, she realised what kind of man she would want.
A man who would cover her with a blanket so that she doesn't feel cold, a person who would increase the temperature of AC so that I am warm, a person who would feel I am cold before I am actually cold, a person with a lot of warmth inside him that will melt my heart.
THAT PERSON WILL BE 'THE PERSON' FOR ME.
