Right next to where the tank lay, I saw flame flicker. By the time I informed Atrayee, there wasn't just the flame, but multiple candles glowed in the dark.
"Where did this candles appear from?" i asked pointing towards the source of light.
"I thought of surprising you, but surprised myself instead" she said.
Taking her hands in mine, "ki hoyeche, bol na?" I asked
Tears rolled down her cheeks, "Not today", she replied.
"But you can't spoil my surprise just because you want to", I retorted.
She smiled.
"How did you do that?" I questioned
"Do what?" she asked.
"Despite hours of crying, you look more fresh than the first lot of Iilish, that enters Maniktala" I said.
"Bhat bokis na toh", she said and got up to leave.
Her hands, still in mine, pulled her back. Unable to balance herself, she slipped, pulling me allong. This time, she on top of me.
They say Sacrifice is the key, I believe it's nothing but Communication.
