I got into the car, gave the OTP to the driver and I sat back in the cab as we left for the airport.
I was deep in thought. ‘Don’t worry’ says Ma, but how can I not? Let me see……
Deadline next week. Of course, now things are coming together, but still……
Asha, my younger was running a fever till Monday. Now she is fine, but still……..
Prateek, my elder has an exam coming up in 2 weeks. We are still in the revision of the main subjects. He is a good boy and has promised to study everyday, but still ……..
Shanta Bai, my maid, is a good lady, but she needs reminders now and then. Will Ma be able to manage all?

I and Namitha have really looked forward to this Valentine’s day getaway. I am so glad we made it happen!
I am travelling more than ever these days and finding time just for us is such a difficult thing. And on the days we are together at home, there are so many household things to do!
Hence this romantic getaway.
Namitha and I are reaching the destination separately. She must already be there by now.
“So much for a romantic date! Lost baggage, late flights, rainy weather and headache too” said Namitha on the way back.
“Yeah! We could have relaxed more doing laundry!”
They laughed………
This is my entry for

Hhha! Had thought of asking you whether you have not been writing for this long or not just sending me the link!
Good one Meena. I like the way the wife and husband have different thoughts while leaving children and going!

Sometime things don’t go as planned. In this case her plate was already full at home and her mind preoccupied. I guess it was not to be . Next year!

Ha ha, it is much more fun to organise a getaway than living one. Seriously, they would have enjoyed at home more!
