The send off
She looked at him as she wiped her hands on a dishcloth.
“I didn’t know she was coming. It was a surprise.”
Abhi nodded slowly. “Yeah. I figured.”
They stood there a moment longer.
The soft hum of water in the bathroom.
The scent of ginger still in the air.
“I don’t think we can do yoga for a few days” she said.
He nodded. But her eyes said more.
He smiled, and this time, it reached his eyes.
Then he turned and left.
And Meghana stood at the counter.
Her hand resting on the empty box of dessert.
Heart still full of the sweetness that hadn’t had a chance to unfold.
