“Naina… we are leaving….” Rohan called out.
“Ha ruko.. I am coming…” I replied as I got up from my study desk and headed out to the door.
“I wish you would come too...” Rohan said as he gently pulled me close.
“Ha mamma…You should have come too...” My son Aarav said. The night before he had cried his eyes out that his mamma wasn’t coming to his grandparents’ house for the summer. I and Rohan had a hard time to get him to sleep and even in the morning, he threw a fit.
Since I was stay at home mother, Aarav was very attached to me and would always cry if I wasn’t around. This would be the first time he would be away from me. Seeing tears pooling in his eyes brought a lump in my throat too. I squatted down and hugged him tight.
“Mamma has this very important test coming na beta…That’s why she is not coming…” I tried to reason to which he just nodded.
“But you’re going to have so much fun at Nana’s house…” I said, trying to talk him out of the grumpy mood he was in all morning. The mention of his grandparents did bring a smile to his face.
“Okay chalo…nikalte hai. Say bye to mamma..” Rohan said.
“Bye mamma…” Aarav said. I kissed him goodbye and stood up. Rohan pulled me close and gave me a light kiss.
“I’ll be back in a week baby. Take care…” He said as he walked out with our son.
It was an annual affair for us to visit my parents’ house for a week in summer and then to my in laws house during winter. Every year, for the last 6 years, we had taken this trip.
I got married to Rohan soon after graduating from college at the tender age of 21. Aarav was born a year and a half later. I had planned to study further after graduation but then I met Rohan. He was my friend’s older brother and it was love at first sight.
Rohan was a mix of a geek and a stud…I would call him an in-betweener. Standing at a good five feet ten inches, he was of average built. A light stubble on his face with a pair of striking glasses added to his personality. Whenever he smiled, dimples dented his cheeks and this was the most striking feature that had been swooning.
The day we met, apart from the introductions, we avoided each other. A couple of days later, I got a message from him. He had gotten my cell phone number from his sister, my friend. We got talking and soon grew closer.
He was four years older than I was, already earning well and was settled, so when our parents came to know about our relationship, they decided to take initiative and had us engaged. A whirlwind six-month romance ended in marriage and my plans of studying further were postponed when we moved here after the wedding.
Like most married couples, our sex life was amazing. I was this shy novice who knew nothing about sex and Rohan, though much more confident than I was, was perhaps equally inexperienced in the matters of sex.
I always thought, I’d get back to studying and then find a job after settling down but then again, it had to be postponed as I got pregnant with Aarav.
Nine months of carrying a baby and then four years of taking care of the baby meant I was super busy. Rohan worked in an IT company and earned well enough for us to buy a bungalow in the upcoming suburbs of the city.
We moved here a few months ago and the neighbourhood was still getting developed. Since, our house was constructed first, we moved in. The place was quite isolated, even buying basic grocery required us to drive a mile but we knew in a few years, all the nearby land would be developed, so we settled into the house.
Aarav had grown old enough now and I thought I could finally try and get back to getting that master’s degree I wanted to all those years ago. The entrance exam for the college was a few weeks away and so I and Rohan decided that this year, I would skip our annual trip to my parents’ house and since I wanted as much time I could get to prepare for the exam, Rohan decided to take Aarav to my parent’s place.
After waving my husband and son goodbye, I got back to studying. It had been years since I last opened a book to study, I needed to catch up with my studies from graduation before moving to the entrance exam books. I spent the next few hours studying, taking a break only to have a light lunch before getting back to studying.
In the evening, I decided to take a break and walked to the living room to watch some television. The moment I started the television, it blared out the loud news channel.
“Breaking News!! The dreaded dacoit duo of Fahim Shaikh and Tejinder Singh have escaped from the Central Jail. The two, convicted of armed robbery and murder also have several cases of robbery, arson and bang pending against them.” The news anchor screamed the news as if the two were heading straight to him.
“As per our sources, they escaped last night after killing two guards and injuring several others. The jail and security officer department tried to keep this break out under wraps but your channel, your channel is the first to break the news.” The anchor said emphatically.
“The spokesperson from the security officer department has said that several teams of armed security officermen are searching for the duo and they are confident of nabbing them soon. Their pictures are on the screen right now; if anyone has any information about them, the please contact the security officer department on…” The anchor gave out the information.
The two indeed were scary looking. Their mugshots were on TV. I watched the news for a minute before switching over to the soaps that I watched regularly.
I watched TV for a couple of hours and had dinner while watching it.
After that, I switched off the TV and walked upstairs to my bedroom and got back to studying. I didn’t realise when I dozed off at the table.
I woke up when I heard some noise coming from the living room downstairs.
“Ha ruko.. I am coming…” I replied as I got up from my study desk and headed out to the door.
“I wish you would come too...” Rohan said as he gently pulled me close.
“Ha mamma…You should have come too...” My son Aarav said. The night before he had cried his eyes out that his mamma wasn’t coming to his grandparents’ house for the summer. I and Rohan had a hard time to get him to sleep and even in the morning, he threw a fit.
