Main jab pahunchi to bhabhi ji ka phone aaya aur unhone kaha ki tum bacho ke saath tab tak rehna jab tak unke papa nahi aa jaate .Ab main roj shaam de... tak rukne lagi par bhaiya ki nazar mujh mei kuch aur hi dhoondh rahi thi. Wo roj shaam ko peekar ghar aate aur mujhe chune ki koshish karte main samajh gayi thi ki wo mujhse kya chahte the ab wo roj ghar thoda der se aate aur mujhe kabhi khana banane ko kehte aur kabhi kuch aur kaam taki main der tak wahan ruk saku ur phir mujhe ghar chodne ke. “I don’t really want you to leave.” My thumb circled her palm.“What about me riding Sugar?”Squeezing Sarah’s hand again, our fingers interlinked. “Depends.”“On what, Annie?”“Depends on you still wanting to kiss me.” ************* Waiting at the start of the cross-country course, I walk Sugar in circles, not wanting his legendary impatience to over-excite him.
