About this ebook
He gives me a gentle smile, with his pleading eyes demanding my pardon. I can’t help it. He sits on the side bar of the chair and begins to caress my cheeks. I particularly don’t like this habit of his because he angers me a lot and then begins to shower his love.
He knows very well that my resentment can’t stand before his love and affection. He throws out the old flowers and arranges the fresh flowers in the flower vase. He knows that I love flowers and he has made it his habit to bring flowers every time he visits me. I can’t live without the scent of the flowers. It helps me in better concentration while studying. Actually, the flowers keep on reminding me of his presence there.

When I wait for him, I am not interested in anything else. It has happened again today. The sunlight that had been brightening the yard climbed on to the wall and the groups of school children, carrying their school bags on their backs, began to appear. Then suddenly I realize that I have been standing there for about an hour but Sanjay has not turned up.
Why has wait become an inevitable part of my days in that city? Why has wait become more important than the works which I should be doing?
Somewhat annoyed I enter the room where the books, some open and some closed, are scattered all over the table in one corner. I stare at them angrily for a while and then I open the cupboard and look at the clothes, all stuffed together recklessly.
