Thought of participating in the Writer's Post Thursday Blog Hop #81
And this week Bhavya of Ishithaa is the host.
The theme is Birthday
She opened her eyes... to him. The safest and the happiest place of hers. Waking up next to him every morning was her dream and growing old with him was her prayer.
And here they are, next to each other.
She cuddled more to him and whispered with a million dollar smile, "Happy Birthday Dear" and waited for him to open his eyes. But he, even without budging a bit or taking the trouble to open his eyes, kissed her forehead and murmured back, "Happy Birthday to Us, Sweetheart" and drifted back to sleep, hugging her.
That simple wish made her day.
All the differences, distances, the mushy chottu mottu fights, craziness and the simple moments like these, remind her how blessed they are to have each other. Smiling and thanking her stars, she closed her eyes again to cherish those birthday moments of theirs.
---------------------------------------------------
She opened her eyes... again.
But to an absolutely empty bed.
She hugged herself and whispered to the heavens to him... "Happy Birthday to Us dear. I miss you."
And she still thanked her stars ... but along with a tear drop.
