It’s my favorite day today, my birthday. When a special person is around you, you would love that day, right? For the whole week, I woke up to find a surprise gift lying for me to be opened, every single day :-). You can imagine how much a girl would fly when she receives a gift. There’s no better feeling than feeling loved.
But, I was feeling too emotional and guilty too. Because I knew how busy he was for the past few weeks. Working from 9 am to 1 am the next day, on all days is not an easy thing. He literally had no time to think about anything, not even about his sleep or relaxing a bit or some time for himself. I wondered how he managed to go and buy those gifts, came to know that he bought everything on a single day and kept them at his desk. Each day while leaving office (around 12.30 or 1 am), even if he was overblown with a hectic day’s work, he never forgot to pick the gift for that morning.
We had plans of going to temple and for a lunch out today. By the time I was doing some clean up after the breakfast and getting ready, he was still working. Usually, when he works, he will be very diligent and totally into it. But today morning he never uttered a single word that he had something on his plate which he has to complete before tonight. The day was just awesome with a good Dharshan at temple, lovely food and with some shopping. As we reached home a bit early, I thought I can finish the laundry so that I will have some buffer time for preparing Diwali sweets the next day. Usually, after a tiresome day, he would prefer going for a nap. Was expecting the same today, but to my surprise, he was on his laptop. Little concerned, I asked “Do you have to work kanna?” and he said just a bit and will be done in a while. So I continued with my pending work. Of late, I found he was on a call with one of his techie friends and the work mode was turned ON gradually. (He was still in his world of work even by the time I posted this)
The person on the other side of the call seems to have committed to his family that they would dine out today. Meanwhile, VJ was working on something, person X took them out for a quick dinner and came back to join the work. Who said men never keep up their words. They do! That is why they are able to squeeze in and spend some quality time with their kids, whenever possible. That is why they manage to take their family for a weekend outing even if they wanted to laze around. And that’s why they don’t have any time for themselves. They just do everything, every single thing for their family. Happiness in the family alone can bring smiles on his face.
Please do not ask me “Are we, women not dedicated or sacrificing for the sake of the family?” It’s all about mutual support and bonding which we build. He is the backbone for her and She is the backbone for him. Let’s value each other and Let Love Grow!!!
