We exchanged casual talks about our background etc and i came to know that he is a retired army personnel and his wife and kid were in native in Varan...si for a relative’s wedding and he had just had a bad fall from the stairs due to which he got his leg fractured about a month ago and hence could not attend the wedding. So he had to do the chores around the house himself and he expressed his concern over the same. I offered to help him in whichever way i could till his family came back. I asked. He had been in band, and just as he was in everything else, he had flown under the radar. He was a steady, not spectacular musician, and he doubted he would play much after high school.He had never tried to play organized sports, but enjoyed playing softball and football with his classmates on the sandlots and grassy fields at the community park down the road from his house. He was athletic enough to hold his own, but again, was never allowed or encouraged to be the star. In football he was. He forced himself into action. He showered and shaved, then went out for a run in Central Park. When he returned, Kirsten was awake and holding her stomach.
