The alarm rings at 05:30 am...She drags herself out of bed ..groggily switches on the geyser..and fumbles Her way to the kitchen..the coffee pot goes into the microwave .. the shredded vegetables come out of the fridge .. She just has to remember to get some cheese .
By the time the first sandwich is made She wakes Him up ...the dust on the bedside table looks accusingly at Her .. later..!!
The maid is due at 06:15am ...hope she turns up .. the last three days newspapers wait in silent resignation to be consigned to the stack of unread old papers .
He is out of the bathroom ...already on the second news channel of the morning ..what does He watch She wonders .. same dirty old politicians .. crazy filmstars ..ever disappointing sportsmen...whats new anyways ..!!
The clock's ticking .. 0730 am already ..She hasnt even brushed her teeth..what is She going to wear to work today .. the grey suit isnt ironed and the beige one ..looked so good on Her ...but did that old hag have to buy the same one and wear it last week;and she cant even carry it off..!!
She did badly need a manicure ..but She is so tired by the time She gets home at 0830 pm..
There..... its her mother-in-laws phone call ... now is this a time to call..!! She is so busy .. let Him handle it .. anyways what does she have to say besides remind Her ..that the future of the human race depended on Her procreating at the earliest ..!!! who is going to look after it anyway ..good maids are so difficult to come by aren't they ..!!
God the milk boiled over .....that is 10 mins extra work now of cleaning it all up .. now She will miss the 0745 bus .. great .. the boss has been especially bitchy this week ..
There He goes nonchalantly wearing that miserable apology of a tie with his blue Van huesen shirt ..He does need to buy a new set of ties .. well no .. actually He doesnt care either ways . She glances furtively at him .. his sagging waistline mute testimony to the numerous dialed in pizzas and chicken butter masala that have stood in for dinner , yet he is handsome in his own careless way ...she loves him .. she loves him so much.....yet .. when did She last tell Him .. She loved Him ..??
